Would a Coolmaster Silent Pro 700w be okay with a 295X at stock with a 4790k at stock?
This should help you answer that question sir.![]()
Thanks, mines bang on 50A. Hmm not sure to be honest, it's either the 295X or the 980 with the vision of going SLI when they reduce.
I was thinking the same initially, but I can't help but think by the time you'd NEED another card, there will be new and improved offerings available of the 8GB variety from AMD/Nvidia. Seems the way things are going, the 4GB limit will be exceeded in far more games a year from now (if at 1440p and above), so that will always be the factor which limits the lifespan of today's cards... well, the 8GB 290X would last longer I imagine, but the PSU demands and heat issues in having x2 of these cards just doesn't work for me.Thanks, mines bang on 50A.

Anyone owned a sapphire vapour 290x and a lightning?
If so which would you say is the coolest/quietest?
Just my luck, was about to pull the chord on a 295x2 and the sale has ended and gold codes are gone too.
Any idea if there will be another sale, also is it not being restocked anymore?

I've been checking that XFX 295x2 today. Too bad the sale has ended or else i would maybe buy this one... Even so, can someone advise me on a PSU that meets the minimum requirements for this card? There is a PSU from Corsair CX850, i guess that would be enough but i'm not sure about the amps.

Bought the 290 vapor x. Superb card. Its idling at 38c right now and hasn't gone past 62c in game. Not far off from the 970s I had.
Thanks for letting us know, it's a lovely card!
Any chance of a rig pic?![]()
Amps over 12v rail is more important than wattage. Need 56amps minimum.
