[FS][US] XFX R9 290 Double Dissipation (Sold)

Jeffredo · Jan 9, 2015

EDIT: SOLD

Selling an XFX R9 290 DD that I bought during a Black Friday sale. Just six weeks old - it was an impulse purchase that I really didn't need (its more than I need for WoW or Skyrim). The card is perfect and like new - runs very cool, quiet and stable with great performance. I got just 65C while gaming and 70C while running the Heaven benchmark (well ventilated case with fans on auto). Shipping is included and I have two shipping options - one is Priority Mail with the card and accessories only (no retail box - it won't fit in the flat rate box) or the card with retail box via UPS Ground (slower + $10 more). Thanks for looking!

$195 via USPS Priority Mail
$205 via UPS Ground

Nice card, how does it overclock and what's the ASIC?

Jeffredo · Jan 9, 2015

I only OC'd it to 1075/1375 (stock voltage) out of curiosity, but never pushed the limits - it was more than fine at stock. Honestly don't known what ASIC refers to.

open up GPUz and on the top left corner right click the top of the app and select READ ASIC Quality

Its no longer in my PC.

I have this card and love it. Wicked great price.

Regarding ASIC, I found this (Anantech):

The ASIC Quality screenshot on the right can be evoked from GPU-Z's context menu and is individual for each graphics card and GPU. This feature has been developed for Nvidia’s Fermi (GX10x and GF11x) and AMD’s Southern Islands chips (Radeon HD 78xx and HD 79xx) and is supposed to indicate the quality of the specific GPU, in percent, based on electrical leakage data.

The GPU of our sample of the card has an ASIC quality of 76.6%. The higher this number, the lower voltage the GPU needs to work at the default clock rate and the higher overclocking results you can get with it by increasing its voltage.

According to Alexey Nikolaichuk (the author of RivaTuner and MSI Afterburner), the correlation between voltage and quality is like follows:

ASIC quality < 75% - 1.1750 V;
ASIC quality < 80% - 1.1125 V;
ASIC quality < 85% - 1.0500 V;
ASIC quality < 90% - 1.0250 V;
ASIC quality ≤ 100% - 1.0250 V.
