100$ for a 3% performance increase? Not worth it
Go for the Sapphire, the Asus is sold out either way


ya it is sold out. and ya the sapphire is 100$ less. most of the stuff i like about the matrix that im not seeing on the sapphire is the vram cooling, back plate. and the one thing im liking the most is how the card has good support so it doesn't sag, and im trying to go red theme. otherwise im digging the vapor-chamber

i guess i wanna hear as much stuff about both cards, good and bad. price at the moment is not a big deal. id like to know other then price is there a good reason to not but the matrix. and also the vapor chamber can the liquid in the chamber evaporate. if i can think of other questions ill post it here

iv been trying to find reviews but nothing that can give m a clear view on it im also in to over cooling things so i like the size of the gpu fans and heatsink

that seemed like a good page platinum era. so y is it iv never seen this card around the matrix and it says its been out over a year

i was reading the game debate thing and it says the recommended ram is 8gb should i get 16 or 8 as of now im looking at 8 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

and would this card run better on intel over am with the pic 3.0

i have been reading a lot of reviews mostly on newegg and most ppl say the matrix is a shit card lots of artifacts and such, only thing is most of the ppl that have problems are the ones posting on it.

sorry if I make shit complicated I try to find a few parts then sift them out for the best ones then I sift out what I may actually need out of it, I try to take a week and look up just the, in this case 2 cards here then I ask stupid shit about them gotta know as much as I can, ill also look at other models if I feel its up to par. I feel like my mind is changing and im thinking sapphire but I may still get the matrix im just worried I may have some problems lik others.

The current standard anyone wold recommend to you for a gaming PC would be 8. I have 16 because I got a great deal and wanted 16 either way to kind of future proof. I ended up getting 2 sets of 2x4gb Kingston HyperX Genesis for 39.99 a set (80$ in total).
