well i ain't very happy, paid the price of a 290x.... will try some 3dmark before sending it back.

Bench that bad boy before you send her back! Stock and overclocked, firestrike plus extreme!

Get some benchmarks run you'll be famous, try to find out how many stream processors it has etc.

This, your name will be plastered all over the net, R9 290 review, before NDA release! Go.... :D

You'll be that guy!

Is there any app that can detect the number of stream processors or do they all have to be fed the information? does CCC show it?

Wouldn't be surprising the amount of cards you've been shifting. They probably can't tell their 290s from their arses :D

10k is impressive, what's the rest of the system?
