MSI Radeon R9 290X Gaming Edition 8192MB
Sapphire Radeon R9 290X Vapor-X OC 8192MB
Sapphire Radeon R9 290X 8192MB
Powercolor Radeon R9 290X PCS+ OC 8192MB
8GB XFX Radeon R9 290X

Just made this choice myself, I went for the MSI Radeon Gaming 8GB, tis a thing of beauty ! Came with a load of game codes which got sold so worked out pretty cheap. Happy days

Noticed Shadow of Mordor using over 6GB !!

tbh im really fed up waiting for nvidia to make an annoucement.

Unfortunately I cannot get a titan as Xplane only sees 1 GPU

8GB not needed, nowhere near needed.

Xplane eats up VRAM I think.
