Very odd. Maybe only the new Fury dies are being moved to GloFlo production while the rebadges are still being produced by TSMC. It doesn't explain the performance differences between 390x and 290x though.
I'm eager to see perhaps if sirplay has a 290x on hand in addition to his 390x?
I had terrible coil whine from my Asus Strix 970 that has now devolved into a practically non-functional card. It randomly hard crashes and stock clocks won't come back unless I clean uninstall all the drivers and reinstall them. Plus the displayport has started wigging out too.
I really...
Selling my R9 290x. It's unlocked, and using an Asus bios currently, all it needs is ATIFlash to go back to stock. Can transfer warranty upon sale completion as well.
CONUS only. I have an arctic accelero IV as well, that would bring the card price to $305 total. Runs cooler then Tri-X, card...
290X > 970 in raw performance because of the severe 970 throttling at the high end of power consumption.
I should know because I've been benching my strix against my oc'd 290x.
I bought a 970 to test out, I don't play at 4k atm so SLI is wasted..I just want to see how hard I can overclock the 970 and see if it's going to be better then my 1200/1600 290X..if it is I'll sell the 290x for sure and just pick up a 390x when it comes out
Selling my unlocked XFX 290. It currently is unlocked to 290x with ASUS bios, and runs 1070/1500, is capable of 1200 core on air.
Replaced stock cooler with Arctic Accelero Extreme IV, put on VRM and memory heatsinks.
XFX warranty is transferrable to new owner, and if you want can give you the...

It doesn't bother me if it's on air. I'll most likely end up removing the stock cooler and applying my own cooling. I pretty much only ever use one card now so it's not that big of a deal.
Thanks for responding. I bought the gelid kit, so I got the VRM kit, plus I re-used the memory heatsinks from my old Accelero II that was on my 470.
My VRM temps vary, but they can hit 104 but I think I need higher CFM intake fans, and a PCI exhaust fan maybe. The air is really stagnating...
You're not going to get a hardware job like what you're looking for straight out with no prior experience.
Look for jobs that need coders for back-end applications pretty much. Be wary of companies that have a devops environment, since you're going to get less development time, and more...
The rates differ by region.
I pay $78.95 a month for Blast+HBO which is 50/10. That includes the modem and digital economy TV+HBO. That's a promotional rate. the internet alone previous was $74.95 a month with the modem.
This is in the Philadelphia area. You can either buy a modem or use the...
