    It's a graphics card that's about 50% more powerful than a PS4 GPU. But you need a decent PC and power supply to give this a whirl.

    Probably a home build- or at very least something with decent gaming cooling etc.

    I want....... I can't justify, but I want.......

    Now that both the PS4 and the XBox One are on x86 platforms- no reason for there to be any delay on PC ports of all the major titles- and if we're already up to twice as powerful as either system (though at a humunguous price)- bodes well for PC gaming for the next decade or so..........

    proof? I've heard about the reference cooling in R9 290 having heat problems, but this is first time I hear about 280X. Care to back it up with some links?

    Does anyone know if you add the item to your basket will it stay at that price or will it change as the products price changes (like Amazon)? Might be interested in this.
