R9 290X Owners Thread

Bought a Sapphire reference on released and have yet to take a picture and post it in this thread, what am i doing with my life?!

New camera arrives tomorrow hopefully, so you might see some out of focus dusty shots coming from my way.

Was wondering if people who clock and bench their 290p/x's could check (and post) their Asic value too. I see so many claims that it leads to better clocking or higher benching but in truth, i have yet to see evidence that show it is a significant factor in clocking or benching. Sure many of these cards show a lower stock voltage but i'd rather see the effect of a good asic value on high clocked voltage over stock.

My Asic values

I don't know why I have the best one in slot 4.:D

Awesome, thanks kaap!. How do they bench individually with the other slots turned off and at the same clocks?

With the same hardware and cooling, might be easier to discern if Asic quality has an effect. No need to actually bench them separately again, i am sure you have done that and probably know what order they come if there is a difference between them.

I did bench them separately on air and they were all about the same so I was not too fussy what order they were installed in. They were all good for over 1200/1625 on air.
 
If anyone has any build logs or Rig galleries using 290Xs I can post the links at the front of this thread.

I won't be posting mine as I think everyone is feed up seeing pics of it.:D
