Clear coil whine on sample

Crossfire R9 Nano’s defeats the ideal of small form factor suitability
Neutral
4GB HBM is good for now
But very little future-proofing
“The R9 Nano in Crossfire is an amazing achievement for AMD and a great step in the right direction for the future o
Super
Expensive
Size is less of a mini
ITX issue now
4GB HBM limit
Coil whine
Other cards already accomplish its goal
Can't handle 4K in every game
Ruinously expensive
High-pitched capacitor whine
A little slower than current flagships
Retail price is significantly above its closest performance competitor (the GTX 980)
Cooler design exhausts some air directly into the chassis
Rear components can get hot and there is no backplate
I initially had my doubts about the R9 Nano. After AMD’s preview the consensus on our forums and throughout the tech community was that it was far too expensive, didn’t offer enough performance (based on initially vague estimates) and targeted a niche tha...
Compact size, Excellent performance at 2650x1440, Operating temperature and power draw suitable for a compact build, Audible but not too loud - good for a reference cooler
Not Cheap
This is a niche enthusiast product and is absolutely perfect for small form factor builds where space is limited but ultimate performance is desired. Having tested the Nano much more extensively than I'd planned, I really like it and have thoroughly enjoy...
Highend gaming performance, Efficient for a Fiji GPU, Teeny weeny
Superexpensive, Size is less of a miniITX issue now, 4GB HBM limit, Coil whine
The Radeon R9 Nano matches impressive scale with high-end performance, but the price is prohibitive especially when size is really not so much of an issue anymore...

The AMD Radeon R9 Nano is a godsend piece of hardware for builders of SFF computers, providing performance of high-end graphic cards all in a small package. If you're a SFF enthusiast it's perfect for any kind of build, and even if you're not the R9 Nano...
AMD Radeon R9 Nano retails at RM 3,300 onwards of which I think it's crazy considering that's the price of an Nvidia GTX 980 Ti card that delivers more performance, 50% more than an R9 390X and the GTX 980 cards, and nearly double the price of Nvidia GTX...
Extremely compact size makes it ideal for miniITX builds, Performs better than an R9 290X 8GB, Only needs a single 8pin PCIe power connector, Capable of supporting games in 4K resolution
Limited overclocking headroom
AMD has gotten off to a good start with the Radeon R9 Nano, but it's still a little too early for the company to be celebrating. The HBM memory format is still in its infancy stage of the distribution and development cycle, and with AMD's overclocking res...
