7 x R9 Nano LTT Build

[Panos]

We should just be happy AMD got such massive publicity from this video.

Whether people like Linus or not, his channel is now huge, probably the biggest/most powerful channel in terms of marketing.

This is a major boon for AMD, you can be sure there will be a lot of Nano purchases that there would never have happened otherwise.

Also quite embarrassing for NVIDIA, that despite the billions more they have in R&D, supply, market power, that they were unable to produce GPU's that have as much power as the nano in that form factor. that they were unable to put a 980Ti in that form factor, nothing less

fixed

Indeed the video made me buy a R9 Nano and replace the 295X2.
Haven't played with it yet, but looks absolutely beautiful little card, 1cm longer than the EVGA 650Ti (Sc something I had) similar form factor, and twice the weight (expected because of the cooler).
Saying that idling atm cannot hear it, is more quiet than the 295X2 with stock fans idling!!!!

I will let you know how it goes. However the little size of it, makes my case looking empty atm!!!!!!

Challenge accepted. We shall see when I watercool it, and overclock it
(Albeit with an i5 4690 i5 6600K since there are no sensible mITX motherboard in stock for Z97 ).

Made any progress on this?

I'm interested as there don't seem to be any Fury X scores in the Heaven thread.
Generally AMD don't seem to do so well in Heaven, but I'm wondering if they have better Tessellation if that's changed things.

And if it doesn't then you fail the challenge and I was right!

You have almost enough spare cards to do this goog?

All AMD cards from 285 onwards have very good Tesselation processes.

Watercooler is expected from EK on Tuesday next week, pre-filled to go with the Predator 360. CPU wise, I will test it on the 4820K, since the purchase of it, was postponed for couple of weeks. But is ok.
