Hello everyone,

I was wondering if any testing had been done to compare the R9 280x CF'd and a single R9 290x? I'm planning on upgrading in the coming week and I was reading that it might be better to wait for the R9 290x with dual-fans since it runs kinda hot, but I can't really wait for another 2-3 months to upgrade.

Feedback is appreciated! Thank you!

Not yet! BUt the HD7990 is still faster so the 2 x 280X is going to be faster as well http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/R9_290X/27.html

280x in CF will no doubt use more power, but it will have better performance then 290x but.. 290x CF is another story....if you got the money lol.
