Hi, my r9 280 broke and i got my money back so im thinking of buying a XFX R9 290 Double Dissipation any people got experience of this card
 
Solution
I use to have XFX cards but in my opinion, they die out quicker than other brands because XFX don't cool the VRMs as well. This is particularly a problem with the 290.


I was in exactly your position looking for a 290 a few months back and decided this:
Get the MSI 290 Gaming 4G - A VERY cool, QUIET and excellent performing card and only £10 more than the XFX.



p.s There are also other choices if you don't want to go for the r9 290.
