Hey guys,
while ago I got my XFX R9 290 card, then I started my experiments on it to unlock its potential and solve its heating problems,
First I've tried to put on a liquid cooler Antec 620 on it, it was pretty hard and I did not get the good results on that just reducing the noise of the card while keeping it below 90C.
Later on I've ordered a Gelid Icy 2 GPU Cooler which fitted to the card with some kind of troubles, then I've changed the Fans of GPU cooler with Arctic F12 PWM as Gelid ones are not PWN.
Now I can say I've build the ultimate R9 290 with after market cooler that temps never goes more than 75C with minimum noise.
