Powercolor R9 290X PCS+ 4GB Graphics Card Review
Bioshock Infinite
“BioShock Infinite is a first-person shooter like you’ve never seen. Just ask the judges from E3 2011, where the Irrational Games title won over 85 editorial awards, including the Game Critics Awards’ Best of Show. Set in 1912, players assume the role of former Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, sent to the flying city of Columbia on a rescue mission. His target? Elizabeth, imprisoned since childhood. During their daring escape, Booker and Elizabeth form a powerful bond — one that lets Booker augment his own abilities with her world-altering control over the environment. Together, they fight from high-speed Sky-Lines, in the streets and houses of Columbia, on giant zeppelins, and in the clouds, all while learning to harness an expanding arsenal of weapons and abilities, and immersing players in a story that is not only steeped in profound thrills and surprises, but also invests its characters with what Game Informer called “An amazing experience from beginning to end.” From Bioshockinfinite.com
Over here that card currently fetches about 480 GBP and stock is good.
Nice performance! I would like to add that looks wise for a triple fan cooler it is way nicer than the Gigabyte version, I really don’t like the random bit that sticks out on their cards simply for branding purposes; makes them unnecessarily wide as well.
This is actually a lot wider than the Gigabyte card, but a little less tall. Yes this is a great looking card although the blue thermal pads stumped me a bit..
I’m not really bothered by the fact that this is a bit wider because its all used up by the heat sink what irritates me is Gigabyte decided to add a random bit that sticks out the side for no reason other than branding… They could have made the whole thing that wide then had more effecting cooling area but nope just wasted with one word on a sticking out bit of metal!
