Radeon R7 260X  vs HD 7790 

Also: http://www.hwcompare.com/15489/radeon-hd-7790-vs-radeon-r7-260x/ and http://www.game-debate.com/gpu/index.php?gid=1865&gid2=1637&compare=radeon-r7-260x-vs-radeon-hd-7790

What a lie. The 260x is way better, it's up with the R9's... It's probably what asdf said: Its because it just came out. Most new cards have driver issues and don't perform perfectly well at all. Just ask anyone with a 260x and they will tell you that it crashes applications due to beta drivers. I demand a retest.

Fake

With mantle support for Sapphire R7 260X, It's best to choice Sapphire R7 260X.

Its simple, this test is compared with a reference card not an OC, ill like to see it tested with the Gigabyte 1188Mhz core clock not with the standard 1100 or 1050 that cheaper card has.

Then why is the R&260X performing less than 7790?

how is this possible....the r7 260x is a rebranded 7790. Shouldnt it be slightly better in all areas. I cant believe that the 7790 is that much better

My son is very happy with PowerColor Radeon Turbo Duo HD 7790.My VOTE is 10.

Good catch Winnick, the R7 260X has a memory bandwidth of 104 GB/s - just made this change.

Unless I'm missing something - you've switched the memory bandwidth between the two :-) - the R7 260 has more and faster memory over the same memory bus width?
