R9 290X Owners Thread

I can't see anything that I would be missing.. then again I've only use MSI afterburner before. I know you had to enable voltage tweaks on that but I don't see the option in GPU tweak.

edit: enabling overclocking range enhancement reset all the overclocks but changing +power still increases memory to 1.8mV

Could you do a screenshot with the settings page please?

Is that what you wanted?
I disabled the overclocking enhancement again.

1. I'm 27 actually so far from being a "kid"

2. If you were capable of basic comprehension skills you'd see my comments were a long way off pointing out the bad cooler was the be all and end all

3. If you're of the mindset that anybody who is saying something negative about a graphics card is looking for a reason to "bash" it then you are coming across as extremely immature

Not that it should matter but as you appear to be one of those people that can't understand peoples comments without placing them in the green or red box... I have actually owned multiple AMD and NVIDIA cards within the last couple of years and am as far from a "fanboy" as you can possibly get. In fact, I despise it and don't really understand it.

Edit: Petey's gif reminded me of your previous postings in a different thread and I've probably just fed the troll but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt :)

Never called you a fanboy.
 
Frenzy Just had a look and same here it says 1.800 for memory.

ohara59 Gibbo pumped 1.4 on air :D
 
Just a heads up for those on Windows 8 and 8.1.

I'm sure this isn't just relevant to R290X users, but using the AMD cleanup utility has broken my powerplan within Control Panel.

Can you post your steps for doing this? I can't get atiwinflash or atiflash to recognise my HIS 290X.

Edit: It says "cannot find discrete graphics card"

Thanks - must have missed those (hate these silly taiwanese like for weirdly shaped tools with buttons in silly places) will have a look later, in office this morning.

I had an old version of the GPUtweak that didnt have the options - got latest released on friday and its there now.
 
So far the Asus card is brilliant, just going to put it'll all back to stock before installing Windows 8.1 and cracking on with some games!

Hopefully afterburner will hurry up with core and memory voltage control.

Not a huge fan of gpu tweak.
