joymanLooks like this is indeed R9 380, which is supposed to be rebrand of R9 290, which is the same size, have same cooler, have nothing to be developed, just bios flash for the name of the card - all fits.Well judging from the picture this does not look to be an R9 380 mostly because the middle number in the 3XX part has a curve on the left side but not the right. I have a friend who has a pair of the 290 versions and they have been pretty good.
AMD XFX R9 390 DRIVERS SERIES
But I believe that all the R9 series coolers resolved that issue for the most part from what I have seen. I believe the 6XXX series was pretty good while the 7XXX series had its share of issues with the VRM cooling and such. To me what I see more than anything is the fact this is a DD edition of the card (Referencing the name of XFX's cooler) and not a stock AIO/Blower because seeing this out well before launch could mean we will see custom versions out the gate this go round.Īs far as XFX goes, they have had their ups and downs on the designs of their cooler recently. Wow, if this is the R9 390 then we are getting near the launch of something or someone likes to mess with us. Posted on Apr 9th 2015, 14:25 Reply #21 joyman I do with they kept the same black and made it all black and gave better clearance over the VRM so a 3rd party vrm cooling be more possible. The VRM's ( #No2) could be a issue even more so in average cases with semi good cooling, but the GPU cooler never had a issue. I never seen mine throttle the cooler works how ever this looks a bit worse than the XFX 290XDD, the cooler sits even closer to the PCB than before which blocks chances of adding more cooling without replacing the main part of the cooler. Does look like there is a plate over the ram chips and maybe the cooler vrm chips but the possible problem vrms have that silver heatsink. I cannot tell if this will be better if it is really capable of pulling 300W.HUH, pretty much the same the vrm are not on a plate no more by the looks of it which covered all vrm's and ram chips. very similar to last year's XFX DD radeons that throttled their VRMs because they reached 128 celsius while gpu was at 90 something.

I still have their GTX 260, but after that they went AMD exclusively iirc.
IMO they were great quality-wise around 2009-2010 with their first series of core edition cards. would kinda risky and open for legal action.Ībout vendor designs, I hope AMD decided it's better to not do reference cooler at all this generation, because they would've had to cheap out in its production anyways and repeat all the throttling issues they had with reference Hawaii at launch (I'm sure Bermuda is much more efficient, but that's offset by increase in cores to stay in the same power envelope) RejZoRAlso, call me whatever you want but for some reason I don't trust XFX much.I'll call you rightfully cautious :D. when you think about it, what else could it be - I highly doubt someone would troll the world with a custom cooler on 290 card with XFX logos all over. HumanSmokeInteresting if this is a 390 - about time AMD allowed vendor designs on launch day.Funny how you are extra careful with conditionals. The R9 390X and the R9 390 will be competitive with NVIDIA's GeForce GTX TITAN X, and other upcoming cards based on the GM200 silicon, such as the GTX 990. AMD could allow its partners to come up with custom-design cards from day-one, with memory amounts ranging between 4 GB and 8 GB. There's no word on its specs, or how AMD carved it out of the "Bermuda" silicon, which features 4,096 stream processors based on the latest version of the Graphics CoreNext architecture, and a 4096-bit HBM memory interface, churning out 640 GB/s of memory bandwidth.
The second-best SKU carved out of the "Bermuda" silicon, the R9 390 will be positioned a notch below the R9 390X. It features bridge-less XDMA CrossFire, much like the R9 290 series.
The card draws power from a combination of 6-pin and 8-pin PCIe power connectors. The card features a tall dual-slot cooling solution, featuring two 100 mm spinners, ventilating a large aluminium fin-stack heatsink. Some of the first pictures of XFX' Radeon R9 390 Double Dissipation graphics card made it to the web, weeks ahead of its launch.
