R9 290X Owners Thread

ASIC: 72.6

Max overclock so far is 1250/1625, need memory voltage for anything higher.

Yes,

Obviously with the fans ramped up to 100% though to keep temps down.

Even so that is some overclock that is faster than water cooling titans. I remember what 100% fan speed sounds like. My 7970 wouldn't go over 1225 at 100% reference fan speed. I stuck an accelero air cooler on there and it would reach 1340. I wonder what it would have done on water.
 
My max stable (No Arts) overclock is 1155/1450 on stock volts.

Is this good or bad?
