Hi there

Kept cool by the familiar Twin Frozr IV Advanced, the MSI GAMING graphics cards come bundled with the MSI GAMING APP, which is an easy tool that takes all of the fuzz out of overclocking and gives a simple one-click solution to get more performance out of your graphics card. Stability and lifetime are never an issue either. With custom PCBs designed for higher efficiency the GAMING cards remain cooler while the Military Class 4 components used ensure high stability while gaming.

Not sure if serious...

290x is between titan and 780 performance. Not even close to 280x crossfire.

Wasn't aware there were reviews out of the 290X yet?

The reason i threw the 780 in there was i'd like good performance in games that won't use crossfire (granted not many these days)

Looks like it'll be two of these then.
