Upgrading from a 7950

[dholdi]

Looking to make almost the same upgrade, from a HIS 7950.

Still over at noobgroup ?

does the MSI 290x come with BF4 and the Ruby games?

I thought that promotion had expired?

Saying that it does say 5 games including BF4 on the front page.

Im pretty sure i own all the games AMD have on offer

Who in the name are you?! Not really. Ill be making some donations i guess for my absence, but im pretty much done with BF. And i hear the whole group has disbanded and gone to the frantic gaming and even admins are turning on each other. Was a big shock to see people hate each other guts.

I went 7950 to 780 windforce, and never looked back. Its one of the quietest cards under load according to Anadtech.

I think I'll be going with the windforce 780 ghz. Since I hear they're binned cards, I'm hoping I'll get a good clocked. Won't be buying for another 1 1/2 weeks so I'll be open to suggestions till then.

I don't know about binned, but my gigabyte 780 overclocks to 1150 on the standard bios. I am sure it will be higher with the power limits raised.

i have 2 7950 there more than enough for 3 screens but you need a active dp adapter to use them which is extra cost.

Not a bad shout. For me, I would look to the one's with decent RMA feedback in the event you will need it one day.

For me, you have EVGA/Gigabyte and MSI for that and out of all 3 of those, you can't go wrong with any of the 780's from them

I have spent a good chunk of my time gaming on 3 monitors (and all 3 in 3D) and the set-up process is so easy.

With current prices I'd recommend the Inno3D 780. It's a great price and the cooler is awesome. <60C under load? Yes please

Same name there as here. Recognised your name from playing on the BF3 & BC2 servers and from the forums. Haven't donated since BF3 days. Shame to hear everyone fell out
