Sapphire Tri-x Radeon R9 290x 8GB Graphics Card Review

Compute Performance

LuxMark is a OpenCL benchmark tool. The idea for the program was conceived in 2009 by Jean-Francois ‘Jromang’ Romang. The idea was quite simple, wrap SLG inside an easy to use graphical user interface and use it as a benchmark for OpenCL. From LuxRender.net.

Here we see how the GPU core technology stands up against its rivals. Similar performance to the standard R9 290x and only getting beat by the newest NVIDIA Maxwell cards.
