Is there such a quiet video card? I don't know if it's just me but I find them obscenely loud.

Are the blower style fans actually quieter than their standard counter parts?

What's with the delay of the next gen ATI/Nvidia cards? Shouldn't they be out by now or should we have some kind of update?

With new consoles having or rumored to have ATI gpus - would it be a good idea to purchase an ATI-Card over a nVidia card?

Alereon posted:Anandtech has received confirmation from AMD that the initial Radeon HD 8000-series launch will not replace their high-end desktop parts, which is why those charts showed their 7800 and 7900-series as stable through 2013. They DO plan to release a new GPU architecture by the end of the year to replace these products in the desktop. In the near-term, AMD will releasing new Radeon HD 7000-series parts based on the Oland GPU, which is a reconfiguration of existing GCN designs. Is nVidia's strategy the same too?

Let me get this straight, We're not going to see any massive architectural changes until 2014 aside from maybe a die-shrink?

Factory Factory posted:Yes, except not even a die-shrink. Just new configurations or minor architectural refreshes. Subject to change*. What do you mean by a new configuration? I currently have a 7850 but at some point I'm thinking about picking up a 2560x1600 at some point in the not-so-distant feature. I'm currently using a 24" that's 1920x1200 and I'd like to buy another a flank the 30" with two 24's in Portrait Mode. That'd be a resolution of about 4960x1920... I think this would kind of work out? Anyway, if I were to invest in the this setup I think it'd want to wait until the latest and greatest came out or maybe not I'm waiting a year.

staan posted:I dont think this will work, first of all the 30" will not be able to display the 1920, and eyefinity only (so far) allows you to use monitors in portrait or landscape, but not a combination Blah, you're right. Games wouldn't be able to draw the difference. There goes that idea...

Magic Underwear posted:There is no way in hell it comes out at $730 or even $699. Just not happening. It's fast or faster than a Titan, no? I'm more interested in the 290 non-x than anything else. You've got mantle, AMD Audio.

I thought the 280X didn't get mantle as it's just rebage?

Guni posted:I'd personally love to upgrade from my 7870Ghz, but if the 290X is going to be $600+ and only similar to a 780, I'll be pretty disappointed. However, if it's $500 and womps a 780, I'll be a happy man. Wasn't the quoted msrp 549-749?

Are you guys thinking one 290 non-x should be able to do Battlefield 4 @ 2560x1600? What about with another 24" and 20" attached?

Tomorrow for the 290X.

Who's going to take apart their 290X and put on Arctic Silver? Any retailers selling this with the Battlefield 4 Combo?

90c is awfully hot but I'm curious to see how much terrible thermal paste is on the 290x reference coolers. Who's voiding their warranty and replacing the paste?

Is Newegg the only place with 290s?

Arzachel posted:Edit: Also, with how AMD Pro parts have traditionally turned out, I wouldn't be surprised about a 450$ 290 that's clock for clock only about 5% slower than the full part. If there aren't any 290Xs in stock I could see these being picked up rather quickly.

If I recall correctly the 290X went for sale around 10:30CST. Maybe the 290 non-x will do the same tonight?

VDay posted:Someone made a video of the card spinning up to max set to a jet airliner taking off the runway, and the fan noise still seemed too loud to match up properly. But the question - does it ever hit 100% in games? Has anyone bothered to redo the thermal paste?
