Hi there


I am very proud to say that OcUK is the only UK company with stock of 8GB 290X and also has the largest range of 8GB cards available compared to our competitors who mostly have zero range. :D




Sapphire Radeon R9 290X Vapor-X OC 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card **OcUK WorldWide Exclusive** @ £379.99 inc VAT

GX-353-SP_400.jpg


OcUK has a worldwide exclusive on the only 8GB 290X in existence, but this is not any 290X it's a highly fine tuned machine being the Vapor-X edition with near silent cooling solution. Running with a 1060MHz core clock and with memory clocked at 5600MHz makes this card absolutely perfect for a 4K setup, even more so with a pair or three of these in Crossfire. That means you could play games like Skyrim with expansion packs at 4k resolution and still not run out of VRAM.

Based on the award-winning Graphics Core Next (GCN) architecture from AMD with 2816 Stream Processors, the SAPPHIRE R9 290X Vapor-X is an Overclocked edition which boasts 8GB of the latest GDDR5 memory running at 1400 MHz (5.60GB/s effective) and high speed engine clocks of 1060MHz.

SAPPHIRE’s innovative Vapor-X cooling technology allows products to run not only cooler but also much quieter. A Vapor-X product means a virtually silent gaming experience and more headroom to explore performance tweaking!

Choke is an important component of the graphics card. By working with the component engineer, Sapphire’s patent pending choke is 10% cooler and offers 25% more power efficiency than a normal choke. The graphics card will be more reliable and save energy.

Improved reliability and better overclocking are possible by using only high-polymer, aluminum capacitors which posses far superior characteristics than regular aluminum capacitor for a longer product life. When operational temperatures drop by 20°C, the product life span is extended by a factor of ten, when the operational temperature increases by 20°C, the product life span only decreases by 10%.

Along the edge of the card the PCB is extended and one of the copper layers left exposed. An additional heatsink mounted directly to this copper layer allows heat absorbed into the PCB from the GPU and other components to be transferred to the heatsink and cooled by the airflow. This feature alone can reduce core temperature by 2 degree C.

OcUK owning the market yet again! :)
The Sapphire Vapor-X is IN STOCK and a great deal as it comes with four games making it even better value for money.
 
Not being rude either but saw the thread title " and thought maybe the stock hasn't been updated on the site, that's why I asked. No worries.

Website updates typically every 5 minutes and IN STOCK is referring to the Sapphire Vapor-X model. :)
 
What about a single 290x 8gb vs sli 970/780ti just cos of the price range it would be the same

Single card, 780Ti is king out the box, then 290X and then 970, OUT THE BOX.

When all three are overclocked, then the 970 matches and in some cases passes the 290X, but the 780Ti remains on top.

980 beats all three with ease.
