The Card

AMD's R9 270X reference design cooler uses a new design that adds a bit more detail through its red highlights while still adhering to AMD's typical reference cooler design.


Installation requires two slots in your system.


Display connectivity options include two DVI ports, one HDMI port, and one DisplayPort. Triple-monitor surround gaming is possible with the card.

The GPU also includes an HDMI sound device. It is HDMI 1.4a compatible, which includes HD audio and Blu-ray 3D movies support.


One CrossFire connector allows you to combine up to two R9 270X cards in a CrossFire configuration.
