I don't usually upgrade every generation. I tend to skip one to two generations but I may make an exception this time for the 290.
You can't tell me that even with the AC on blast, when you walk into your computer room where you're gaming rig has been providing you with hours of gaming goodness that the temp in that room isn't noticeably warmer? I've been in 5 apartments, and in my 2nd home here in the valley and my computer room is always warmer than the rest of the house.
I bought 4 x Sapphire Radeon R9 290x.

PCB with nice Fujypoly Ultra Extreme Mother F thermal pads.

In two separate computers? It's hard to find a 2600W power supply.
Sick rig dude. It looks so... heavy.
Damn!..Definitely not a tree hugger do you have a worklog?
wow! that's clean....

how did the stock tim application look when you removed the cooler?
I have the Lepa G 1600 in the main rig as you can see but I will also use another one to bench, it's an EVGA Supernova 1000G2, will only be used to power two cards.
I also have to use a wall plug in another room, I need two breakers.
I dont fully understand the noise complaints about the 290 and 290x. right now im running a Reference 6950 ( see sig). Can i expect a 290 to be at the same noise level at 50% fan as my 6950? BTW right now my fan is roaming between 50-51% and the rpm is 3k. gpu is at 97%/60c ( running guiminer at intensity 12 )
do these cards have a uefi bios on them?
Never heard of that.
I gotta agree here. I'm on my third home and that's been my experience as well. I bought a portable room air conditioner that serves me well so I don't have to freeze out the other members of my family.You can't tell me that even with the AC on blast, when you walk into your computer room where you're gaming rig has been providing you with hours of gaming goodness that the temp in that room isn't noticeably warmer?

AMD could've avoided this whole debacle if they had launch the 290 series with the different AIB partners like how they did with the 7 series.
Simple start off with the aftermarket brands then launch the reference models later on.
It's not like they didn't know about the heat, they probably thought the price alone would kill all the complaints.
