3DMark is an essential tool used by millions of gamers, hundreds of hardware review sites and many of the world’s leading manufacturers to measure PC gaming performance.
Futuremark say “Use it to test your PC’s limits and measure the impact of overclocking and tweaking your system. Search our massive results database and see how your PC compares or just admire the graphics and wonder why all PC games don’t look this good.
To get more out of your PC, put 3DMark in your PC.”
The R9 390 Nitro performs very well in the latest Direct X 11 Futuremark benchmark and when overclocked it manages to outperform the (considerably) more expensive Sapphire R9 290X 8GB Sapphire Tri-X.
All these benchmarks for games.. can anyone anywhere on the web give me information on using one of these cards in pro applications like Adobe Premiere Pro? I’m wondering how well the 8gb VRAM will help when scrubbing through an effect filled timeline, or if CUDA is still the way to go? I hear lots of opinions, but no testing results. Unfortunately I can’t afford to buy a card from either side and work it out myself.
email me at zardon(at)kitguru.net ill try and help James.
i wouldn’t mind knowing as well, i’m having to put together a workstation focused system for the first time
When do GPU maker stop using “CTRL+C” “CTRL+V” and then rename?
Not only AMD, Nvidia dose it also. but at lease the they go from 580 to 670.
290x to 390x with 99% same card? then make something like 290x boost or anything else then 390x :/
Thanks Allan, I have emailed you just now.
Damn, kinda wished I waited on that 970 I got, this non x version seems to be an excellent value card. Who cares if it’s a rebrand, it’s still relavent.
Seriously though, what do you do with all those cards? ‘Cause the way I look at it, you could have a serious “make a college student’s day” type of deal here. After all, in Graduate school we suffer to do our part to contribute to society, a pat on the back in the process never hurt.
Those chips arent the same thing. The GTX 670 is based on the GK104. You could say the same thing when nVidia moved from GTX 480 to GTX 580 which both were identical except some performance improvements and more shaders. Both are guilty of these practices and won’t go away any soon.
I’d liked to have seen Fury X numbers in the graphs too…
Yes, coming soon…… Bit of a backlog, sorry..
Ahhh right, that’s great thanks 🙂
Which card should i buy 39 or 970. I usually game at 1080p and use 550 watts PSU. Please advise anyone
it would be great if 1080 P benchmarks were available
550 is not enought for the 390 acording to shappire. The 970 is your card.
i just bought this card, but i’d really appreciate a compare between 390 nitro vs 970 g1, stock and oc.
Can you help me?
Ordered mine Yesterday, now I wait Oo
hey, is cx600m is enough for this card(sapphire r9 390)?
That psu isn’t very good.
An xfx is much better.
Anyway, 600W is plenty, unless you plan to OC and will use an OC’ed CPU.
