New GPU!

I received money earlier then i thought and i'm thinking in buying this awesome r9 270x edition.

Sapphire Radeon R9 270X Toxic Boost

Core clock speed: 1100/Boost:1150 MHz Core Clock
(28 nm Chip, 1280 x Stream Processors)
Size: 2048 MB
Interface: 256 bits
GPU Type: GDDR5
Video memory speed: 6000 MHz Effective

Rate this GPU from 0 to 10.

EDIT: After all the size is of 4096 MB.

Compared to other cards it fits there just fine.

If you're comparing it with other 270x's then there is no difference at all between any of them besides a possible gig of extra memory or an extra 100mhz to the clock speed that doesn't improve the rating at all.

I would suggest just buying a GTX 760 instead.

Less power consumption and better performance, but at the cost of $40 more dollars.

OFC You are talking about a dual video card here, that cost $3k each.

probably the benchmarks

There is a lot more to video cards then just core clocks.
Overall is more... that being said the GTX 760 has more overall.

Plus its only a 20 difference between the core clocks.
270x is at 1000
GTX 760 is at 980
You can simply overclock the GTX 760 to push it way over the 270x. Lets not forget the biggest thing is that its Nvidia which has the best video cards to overclock.

Bought the GPU!

Nice.
I would have rather still stick with the GTX 760 as it has a 7% increase in performance.
mainly because a Sapphire Radeon R9 270X Toxic Boost doesn't really compete with a EVGA GTX 760 SuperClocked.

unless ur running 3 monitors in 4k.... i dont see why anyone needs more then 2 gig ram on a gpu

Hate to burst your bubble but you would need a heck of a lot of horsepower to run 3 4K monitors in Surround/EyeFinity! There's also a lot more to doing SLI/XFire configs than the amount of VRAM the card has. You have to take into account the monitors you are using ie Resolution, Aspect Ratio, etc. I have a 2GB GTX 770 pushing out to a 29" UltraWide monitor and I can tell you now I could use more VRAM on my card because of the resolution and aspect ratio and that's just one single monitor.

New GPU!
