LOL webcam sold out fast then?

Does this card come with BF4? Name and box suggests yes, but nowhere in the details is it mentioned.

The webcam is a glitch in the Matrix! And yes, it does come with Battlefield 4

If only the cooler wasn't so terrible, I'd be all over a pair of 290x's. Custom coolers soon I hope from partners.

We do one with a custom cooler
Gibbo posted up some results on the forum using it, worth checking out!

After giving up the ghost with...Ghosts: and gettin a bit tittsed off with nVidia, I was wondering whether the r290x can use Physx..Can it? can it? It must be done cuz of the mighty Batman (games). say its true.

PhysX is an NVidia thing - so it makes sense to be nope. (That's not an answer, as I'm not sure. Gibbo is best answering.) But there is a review comparing some NVidia cards and the newer cards from AMD.

From looking at the charts they provided, the 290X is up there performance wise with the TITANs.

Not posting the link, but if you Google "290x physx" it's the top link, review written by Steven Walton
