As we spent another week testing all the hardware in this review with the same, latest drivers from both AMD and NVIDIA we thought it might be beneficial to also include results of the Sapphire R9 390 X Tri-X 8GB in its maximum overclocked state – alongside ‘out of the box' performance.
How far can the Sapphire R9 390X Tri-X be pushed? We used MSI Afterburner to get our results today.
We managed to increase the core clock to 1,144mhz before instability would occur – this translates to around a 8.4% increase in core speed. The GDDR5 memory exhibited headroom of an extra 9%.
All our graphs today will show performance from the Sapphire R9 390X Tri-X 8GB at ‘out of the box' speeds, along with a yellow arrow pointing upwards to indicate results at 1144mhz/1631mhz. This will show what you can expect out of the R9 390X architecture before it reaches a limit. Obviously not all cards will overclock to the same level, but this is a good indicator.

Nice picture at the end. Fury X review coming soon?
In Metro Last Light Redux already has reduced tessellation used because Normal tessellation instead of very high?
yes on the way
980Ti Gaming , dominating without the FuryX in the scene , waiting your review for the FuryX. lets see where that 980Ti will be in these leaderboards.
would’ve been nice to have a 970 in the charts
Is there any chance of someone being able to give me a rough idea of how this performs in applications like Premiere? I’m undecided on a new graphics card for both gaming and production in Premiere. I’ve heard AMD cards have caught up with NV’s CUDA and I will notice no difference when scrubbing through a timeline with effects on.. is it true? I can’t find any factual information on this, especially regarding graphics cards from the past year or so.

Our GTX970 sample died last week, and while another is now with us, due to tight time constraints it did not make this particular review. We are reviewing the new Sapphire R9 290 Nitro very soon and those results will make it into that review.
The 970 GTX is a direct competitor to this product and therefore very relevant to this review
Actually the direct competitor to the 970 is the 390, not the 390X (but I get your point). If you still wanna know how they compare, you should check out JayzTwoCents’ video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9cKZiJw6Pk
