Hi there

Sapphire AMD Radeon R9 295 X2 OC 8192MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card - Metal Box LTD Edition @ £1,139.99 inc VAT

No matter what the game or the resolution you can now select the maximum settings even at 4k resolution and enjoy fluid ultimate smooth framerates in latest games such as Titanfall, Diablo 3, Watchdogs and even potential upcoming games such as GTA V and Half Life 3 should they surface.

Featuring a pair of 290X Hawaii GPU's fused onto a single PCB with an advanced PLX chip along with only requiring 2x 8-Pin power connectors.

The other major feature of the 295 X2 is its cooling solution which truly does keep the cards temperatures around 60c even after gaming for hours and it also manages to do this in more or less silence with zero throttling of the cores themselves. Making it one of the smoothest, quietest and easily most powerful graphics card on the market today. If you really crave the most powerful and have or are considering a 4k monitor for gaming then the 295 X2 is the card for you.

If your demands are truly the most powerful experience possible then these cards work great in Crossfire (4 GPU's) and you will be able to smash benchmarks to pieces and have no slow downs in games.

Sapphire Radeon R9 290X Vapor-X OC 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (11226-09-40G) @ £499.99 inc VAT

GX-351-SP_400.jpg


The SAPPHIRE R9 290X Vapor-X OC features several of the company’s industry-leading technologies and a factory overclock to deliver best in class performance with very low noise.

Based on the award-winning Graphics Core Next (GCN) architecture from AMD with 2816 Stream Processors, the SAPPHIRE R9 290X Vapor-X is an Overclocked edition which boasts 4GB of the latest GDDR5 memory running at 1410 MHz (5.64GB/s effective) and high speed engine clocks of 1080MHz.

SAPPHIRE’s innovative Vapor-X cooling technology allows products to run not only cooler but also much quieter. A Vapor-X product means a virtually silent gaming experience and more headroom to explore performance tweaking!

Choke is an important component of the graphics card. By working with the component engineer, Sapphire’s patent pending choke is 10% cooler and offers 25% more power efficiency than a normal choke. The graphics card will be more reliable and save energy.

Improved reliability and better overclocking are possible by using only high-polymer, aluminum capacitors which posses far superior characteristics than regular aluminum capacitor for a longer product life. When operational temperatures drop by 20°C, the product life span is extended by a factor of ten, when the operational temperature increases by 20°C, the product life span only decreases by 10%.

Along the edge of the card the PCB is extended and one of the copper layers left exposed. An additional heatsink mounted directly to this copper layer allows heat absorbed into the PCB from the GPU and other components to be transferred to the heatsink and cooled by the airflow. This feature alone can reduce core temperature by 2 degree C.

Specification:-
- GPU: Hawaii XT
- Litecoin Hash Rate: 850-1000
- Stream Processors: 2816
- ROPS: 64
- Core Speed: 1080MHz >
- Memory Speed: 5640Mhz
- Memory interface: 512-Bit
- Memory capacity: 4096MB GDDR5
- PCI-Express X16 lane required
- 600W or greater PSU required
- Power Connectors: 8-pin + 6-pin required

Sapphire are great. The vapor X look amazing and if the cooler is even half as good as a tri-x then they are full of win!

I believe its the same cooler but with some further added VRM cooling along with LED temperature indicators and a backplate.

It is an absolutely stunning card, right up there with MSI Lightning build quality wise.

To be honest Sapphire with R9 series are absolute on it, best range of cards of anyone really. :)
