by hassan-mujtaba (Oct, 2013)The GeForce GTX 780 Ti would essentially make the Titan obsolete if its faster in performance and even if it does ship with a 3 GB VRAM buffer.
by Shawn-Baker (May, 2014)Overall, the FPS is solid at all resolutions, and while we'd prefer a couple of more FPS in the 2560 x 1600 average, because of the strong 40 FPS minimum, we'd consider this playable.
Features Key features of the Radeon R9 290X2

This particular model is factory overclocked by 50MHz on the GPU and 100MHz on the VRAM bring the clocks to 1.1GHz and 6.1GHz.
In a Crossfire configuration the horsepower will be enough to push 4K and the 8GB of memory will truly show off its use, something it does not have a chance to do at 1440p.

Today we examine what value the PowerColor PCS+ R9 290X holds compared to overclocked GeForce GTX 970.
The performance that [H]ard|OCP saw after overclocking the 290X was much closer, in some games even matching it but usually about 5-10% slower than the GTX 980, making it quite obvious which card is the better value.

I am upgrading to the MSI Radeon R9 290X Lightning with a Cooler Master Silent Pro 850W PSU.
As you can see from the above shot from our article, you'd be looking at around 450-600W or so under full load.

The holiday gaming deluge is in full effect, and I suspect we'll see quite a few more "Game Ready" driver updates between now and the new year.
This is really a great way of doing things on the part of NVIDIA, as users can download the driver and be ready to play as soon as the game unlocks on Steam.
