PowerColor Launches Radeon R9 390 X2 Devil13 Dual-GPU Graphics Card

[Robert-The-Rambler]

I love it!!!!!

Seems pretty cool, just imagine the power consumption though.

hello Titan Z epic failure card $3000

 

[Dieinafire]

Having to rely on amd for crossfire profiles to get this thing working properly is a big risk to anyone that buys this card

hello Titan Z epic failure card $3000

I never understood why nVidia released Titan Z in the first place. It was a dumb decision by them to push that card to market.

What's more, to honor Devil 13 users, we have included the top-notch gaming mouse, the Razer Ouroboros, as a free gift inside the box. Why? Simply because we strongly believe our Devil 13 users deserves to have the best of the best.

that statement is at most an insult ... well at last a little cashback if you sell the mouse that you got for free in the bundle ... dahahah

dunno i kinda like the Devil 13 look (funny how AMD show Hawaii, Tonga and other older GCN card are still way worth it... i would have kept my 290 if not for a giveaway )
waiting to see the next gen from both brands...

My god, they forgot to grammer.

2x R9 390. Price should be around $650-$699 (GTX 980 Ti price).

Looks like that is going to be about right. OverclockersUK has it for 690 pounds: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-185-PC

Did you mean: grammar.

"grammer
A common typo for grammar. Most commonly found in sentences that correct someone else's grammar.
Your and idiot because you have bad grammer."

you did it on purpose?`right? (i hope )

Just find the benches for the previous 290X Devil 13 card. On anything below 4K (2X 4GB as apposed to 2X 8GB on the new card) they should be about the same, seeing as how it's basically the same card. Even looks like it uses the same heatsink and comes with the same free mouse. I assume they just added 8GB more of RAM, changed "290X" to "390X" and called it a day, same as AMD.

Here ya go, http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/powercolor-devil-13-dual-amd-r9-290x-review,3853.html

And the previous card was known for being insanely loud, and having quality control issues with the sink not making adequate contact with the chips.

I guess benches and amd engineers say the opposite, but a random claim in a forum about the name change is probably true.

hello Titan Z epic failure card $3000

Titan Z and Titan Black are nowhere in any charts, nowhere in the market and both products had 0 lifespan.
on the other hand, r9 295x2 is still up and thriving.

 

[midnightoil]

Looks like it'll be a great option for VR builds if you can't afford Fury X2, especially as the 295X2 has been discontinued, and as NVIDIA have nothing to compete in the VR space.

 

[rtwjunkie]

This thing is a beast! That much power has me drooling...

 

[haswrong]

Lets hope the heatsink makes contact with the die this time....

Four 8 pins + the slot is good for 675 watts I hope I get to see some benches somewhere on this card.

shouldnt they supply a 2kW power supply as part of the package?

well, google say ...

gamer need no grammer!

just saw the card on newegg. 799$.

 

[Prima.Vera]

Any reviews yet?

 

[GreiverBlade]

well ... the 290-x2 devil13 is the 390-x2 devil13 oh wait that one has 2x8gb not 2x4gb the gap must be enormous.

they actually use different cores..

 

[GreiverBlade]

nope it IS the same core.

compare the 2 links side by side... only the mem/core change

despite the one in the 390 being named Grenada, it's just a renamed Hawaii, just a speedbump mem/core and more memory makes the difference.
(well my 290 was a 4gb 390 as i used it with the sames frequencies ahah... )


recheck ahahah it's even worse in reality ...

http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2755/radeon-r9-390-x2.html

the 290X2 was a 290X X2 in reality ... i see the confusion

so the 290X2 Devil13 would be a good example to show how the 390X2 Devil13 would perform since a 390 is more or less equal 290X

 

[FordGT90Concept]

290 -> 390 -> 290X -> 390X

290/390 has shaders/TMUs disabled where 290X and 390X does not. The only thing 390 has on 290X is the faster memory clock and more memory.

 

[Aquinus]

The only thing 390 has on 290X is the faster memory clock and more memory.

That's the only thing that the 390X has over the 290X as well. It's a shame that faster DRAM wasn't put on these cards IMHO. There are GDDR5 ICs that will operate between 7 and 8 GT/s and my own testing seems to indicate that memory clocks on my 390 scale almost linearly from 1000Mhz to 1600Mhz. It makes me wonder if a 390 or 390X had and could drive 1800-2000Mhz memory instead, how performance would look. That's something nVidia cards have over AMD and that's significantly higher memory clocks.

Can't wait to see some benchmarks! The power draw and heat may be concerning :0.

 

[Bobby Mac]

Instead of a mouse... they should give you a 1500W PSU. Lol.

Haha indeed they should! I'm guessing about 600w-700w draw on this monster

 

[xfia]

quad crossfire here i come!
sets ups redundant 1200w psu's and hopes<
