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

Battlefield 4

“Battlefield 4 is coming to PC, powered by the advanced technology of DICE’s proprietary Frostbite 3 engine. Blur the line between game and glory in Battlefield 4. With dynamic destructable environments, vehicular combat, and the chaos of all-out-war with 64 players, Battlefield 4 on PC will be an unmatched interactive experience. In addition to its hallmark multiplayer, Battlefield 4 features an intense, dramatic character-driven campaign that starts with the evacuation of American VIPs from Shanghai and follows your squad’s struggle to find its way home. There is no comparison. Immerse yourself in the glorious chaos of all-out war, found only in Battlefield.” From Battlefield.com

At 1080p, the Tri-x R9 290x delivers great results, but loses out to the GTX 780Ti and GTX 980. As we start moving towards 4K resolution, we see that the 8GB allowance gives the Tri-x R9 290x room to stretch its legs and trump all at 31FPS.
