It's a shame because I bought an R9 290X from MSI based on the reviews and it turns out to be hotter inside my case than the reviews state. I find it odd that they don't state which case they use because that's what the thing is going into. Not a caseless case, a standard ATX with probably alot of fans or some fans.
How do they justify this? It's basically like tricking the customer. It's somewhat good if you have a case with lots of airflow but we don't know what we need in the system to get it to work. I've already tried lots of things with my card but still temps remain at 94 degrees, why; because the reviews did not tell me that I need a case with super high airflow.
We need reform, we need review sites to tell us which case they're using in their reviews; so we as the consumer can be properly informed as to what we're getting for the money and what we need to do to exploit it properly.
That's all.
