The editors liked
Obscenely fast
Very smooth performance
Perfect candidate for 4K gaming
Runs relatively cool and reasonably quiet
More than two R9 290Xs
Incredible cooling performance
Better value than GTX Titan Z
Offers a huge amount of performance – 4K 60Hz ready
Convenient all in one CrossFireX solution
Represents a huge improvement over past AMD Dual GPU solutions
Fastest graphics card that money can buy
Looks set to be at least half the price of the Titan Z from Nvidia
Ultra HD 4K leader
We love the flight case
No maintenance watercooling system
The editors didn't like
May require a new PSU
Price
But that is the nature of the beast
Coil whine
High power consumption
Power delivery outside ATX spec
A risky game to play – lowers efficiency and strains PSUs
Loud fans even though temperatures are low
Eye-wateringly expensive
Needs some fine tuning
Can get quite loud under load when the water heats up
Smallish cooling system has to work hard
240mm radiator and dual fans would have performed better
As one of the most vocal critics of AMD's past board designs, I'm satisfied with the choices it made in enabling two Hawaii GPUs on one graphics card. Radeon HD 6990, Radeon HD 7970, Radeon HD 7990, Radeon R9 290—all of those products were remarkable in...

The R9 295X2 isn’t just fast. For $1500, “fast” is mandatory. AMD’s engineers have slapped two of its highest-end GPUs on the same board while holding GPU temperatures below 70C. The dual-GPU card is far, far less annoying under load than a single R9 29...
These dual GPU reviews typically go the same way for me: I harp on AMD’s solution for being too loud and lacking proper driver support or talk about NVIDIA’s alternative which benefits from a low noise profile and higher performance metrics due to bett...
Abstract: Gamers want power. Whether it's a faster CPU, better timings on RAM or the instantaneous flash memory of a SSD, the quicker the better — and damn the price tag. That win-by-any-means ethos applies squarely to graphics technology, too — and there's a new G...
1,499. Let's just get it out the way, rip it off like a band aid. At $1,499, the AMD Radeon R9 295X2 8GB is not just an expensive video card, but it's just an expensive piece of hardware or to be honest, an expensive item period. $1,499 is just a lot of...
One of the most powerful single card GPUs in the market right now, Runs cool, despite power consumption
Price, Requires a high wattage PSU to run properly
The AMD R9 295X2 is a beast in terms of size, price, performance and power consumption. Would we recommend this card to you? Yes, but only if you don't mind paying exorbitant amounts of electricity bills.(previously published in issue October 2014)...
Abstract: Announced by AMD less than a couple of month ago, the company's latest dual GPU offering has been hailed by enthusiasts and overclockers around the world as what is possibly the world's most powerful graphics card. We're talking, of course, about the Rade...
