Thread: PCI SERR with AMD but not NVIDIA
Post: RE: PCI SERR with AMD but not NVIDIA
The 6990 draws like 125-150W more than the 290X, so yeah.
Yes, we have had several such cases, which is a big reason why we've moved away from AMD and are no longer going to sell any GPU that has a... |

Thread: PCI SERR with AMD but not NVIDIA
Post: RE: PCI SERR with AMD but not NVIDIA
The PCI-e slots get burned up from continually pulling more power than they can handle. Slots start dropping off one-by-one. |

Thread: New Tyan Build Log
Post: RE: New Tyan Build Log
Taking the fans off of this GPU wouldn't really do anything, because it has vertical heatsink fins, not horizontal. So yeah, my recommendation would be to use a different GPU. There's really no good r... |

I'd like to stick with the R9 290X ones as they're slightly cheaper, unless there's a card comparable in performance for about the same price.

Thread: PCI SERR with AMD but not NVIDIA
Post: RE: PCI SERR with AMD but not NVIDIA
Then I'm afraid you do not know your history. I have a stack of burned motherboards and power supplies that were once running HD 6990s that says your doubts are seriously misplaced.

Thread: 7 GPU set-up
Post: RE: 7 GPU set-up
The GTX 970 reference design is a unicorn, you'd be lucky to find one let alone seven of them. The ASUS card you linked to is a good card though. The estimated wattage for 7x GTX 970 is 980 ~ 1100 wat... |

Thread: R9 Fury/Fury X Benchmark

Yeah, the reference design GTX 970 is a unicorn in the US. Not even I can get them, which is frustrating. I bought one from Best Buy just to have one, but I can't get them in bulk. They are a Best Buy... |

That's an intake port and it works extremely well in chassis like the Brutalis, as it allows the chassis fans to help with cooling considerably.

Thread: What to replace my R9-290 ?
Post: RE: What to replace my R9-290 ?
I'm not sure where you saw the 390 has less cores than the 290, they both have 2560. In fact the R9 390 is literally the exact same card as the R9 290, it's just a rebrand, so that would not be an upg... |
