first off I was super stressed out with things going on and was crusing ebay and found a card and popped a bid in thinking it would go for more than my max bid. I've been watching ebay being flooded by cheap cards because of this bit coin thing so I figure I would try to capitalize on it so....
I got a 4 month old Gigabyte R9 270x Windforce...the one with the big *** 3 fan heatsink, for $105 shipped. as far as cooler designs go is this a good card?
was that a good price aswell?
I know a lot of you are probably going to look at my sig and say its the same as my 7870, and yea I know but that's why I went with a 270x so that leads me to my next question...
has any cross fired their 7870 with a 270x here?
and if so, any issues getting it to work outside the usual crossfire some games not optimized for more than 1 gpu thing?
i'm downloading new drivers now, everything is in big mode, gonna install, reboot and fur test the heck out of it and see if its good to go. so far the air coming off of it is cool
Edit:
1 hour of fur burn in and max is 55C @ 100% fan speed. the fan is quiet on this one even at 100% and if I had the side of the case on I don't think i'd hear it in the deep silence 6 I got recently
