VTX3D R9 270X X Edition Review

Rating: 8.5.

Today we review the new VTX3D R9 270X X Edition, the second 270X we have reviewed since the launch in November. Should you be shortlisting this card for a new system build early in the New Year?

The card we are reviewing today is a new dual fan version of VTX3D's previous single fan 270X X-Edition with red cooler. To confuse the issue, VTX3D have not changed the name at all, or the box artwork. If you are going to buy this card online, we do recommend you check the version you are getting.

KitGuru Games: Nintendo Switch 2 (and the Hubris in Being First Place)

The 2nd of April marked one of the most important dates the video games industry has seen in quite some time, owing to the big unveiling of the Nintendo Switch 2 – showing us everything from the hardware, games and even the system’s release date. Unfortunately, much of what has been revealed so far shows Nintendo is squandering the good will it built up during the Switch 1 generation.

  1. Great value card, can’t beat that for the price.

  2. Thats a really good deal, wouldn’t be my first buy as a company (arent they powercolor?), their warranty terms are always bad in UK. But cheap as chips.
