R9 290 help

[Theoldone]

Hey guys, I got a R9 290 for my first build but its a referance so its loud AF. I wanna get an aftermarket cooler but in my country their expensive and sometimes 3x the price, but there is a deepcool dracula for sale for about 30 dollars us. The problem is that no where does it state that it can mount to a R9 290 but it has 54 mm holes and their website states it mounts to 54mm holes.

Wil I be able to mount that cooler to my referance R9 290

Your card is a reference model, so you should be good to go.

Hmm hold up for a bit

Let me look at that cooler,
You can always change the thermal paste and psds, do washer mod amd use fan curve adjustment to keep axial blower at bay.

6 heatpipes should be fine setup with some good fans.

Google for some reviews if you want to know more.

I gave you more options, so just buy it and move forward or spend cash on a low end card. DO NOT BUY A CARD THAT JUST SAYS GTX 1060, BUY 1 FROM A REPUTABLE BRAND SUCH AS ASUS
