Triple 1440P Dual R9 290Xs Doable?

JamesRausch22 · Oct 9, 2014

I already have two 1440p monitors and will be getting a third one for free soon. I have one 290x about to be water-cooled and am planning on ordering a second one water-cooled. Would two 290xs push frame rates on triple 1440p? Games I play is titan fall, star citizen and games like that.

Well, it really depends on the games specific usage of Crossfire. Simple math would equate to if one 290x can push two, if average of 75% scaling occurs, then 1 and 3/4s 290x's should be able to handle 3 with a .46 remainder to bump up framerates. But bear in mind not every game has optimizations for sli and if they dont you will suffer a penalty on your framerates, luckily you can disable sli and run it on a single monitor to get acceptable performance.

It will be fine , it will act closer to R9 295x2 .

Just don't expect very high framerates , It will get good framerates on Medium-High settings.

I don't have benchmarks unfortunately but that's based on previous reviews and thoughts , I might be mistaken however.

it will probably run ok. You may need to drop in-game details and turn off AA to keep fps up and vram usage down.
