Returned the gtx970 for this
Okay initially went with the evga gtx970 ssc , worked great for a few hours then I come back to play chrome starts crashing it, precision x starts crashing it, and every game I played,reinstalled drivers updated them. No avail! Which you can't edit your reviews I would have given it 1 star. Reason for going with it was the HEAT and POWER ISSUES of the 390 claims (ALL TOTAL BS) The r9 390 runs only 3 degrees hotter under load in my pc, and 3 degrees cooler idle. System was a few degrees hotter under load then with the r9 390. Power I am able to use this card with a 650w Thermaltake and its doing perfect. I even have my cpu FX-8120 w/ 4.3ghz OC. I should have waited for more reviews before buying the card, this thing performs better and smoother , with no crashes. Believe the reviews ITS BETTER. No driver issues at all! With 8gigs this should futureproof you for quite awhile why settle for the 4gb wait 3.5gb(another thing that made me mad). So don't believe the extreme heat BS, along with the extreme power, if you have a good named brand 650w you should be fine, this 8core is a powerhog and I am having no issues. Did I mention it comes with a backplate,unlike the 970. 10/10 I have tried both. R9 390 is the champ! Yes it does seem too good to be true!

Better that Expected
I was about to upgrade from a PNY GTX 770 4gb of ram to a EVA GTX 970 4 GB. Until a friend told me a bout this ATI. I was an ATI user before the GTX 770 and I like them but most of the review show the NVIDIA's card over perform the ATI. But in this case this is has better numbers, similar or less prices that the GTX970 and is 8gb of ram. Also Runs Cooler that the GTX 770. Tomb Raider in High Resolution 1080p at 60 fps with no problem and also works with Photoshop a lot better in my opinion...

Two of these in Crossfire is NASTY
I bought two of these based on reviews from online publications. I chose to buy from Best Buy and XFX because of the Lifetime Warranty that is offered. The price is good, but they can be found cheaper elsewhere if you're okay with a standard 2 or 3 year warranty. The cards look really good, they have backplates which is a nice bonus. I haven't had any issues with crossfire or with bad drivers like some folks reported. I will advice that you upgrade from the official release drivers to the newest beta drivers. Before I did so I was having some odd stuttering issues, but with the beta drivers those have completely disappeared. I'm running them at a decent overclock at stock voltage. They seem to be stable so far at 1100 core / 1675 memory. Even one of these cards will max out 1080p easily. Two together should even make 1440p smooth as butter. I plan to upgrade to a 21:9 1440p monitor later next year, so having the two in crossfire is going to be really important. Anyway, the cards are amazing. Super fast, very affordable for the performance offered, and come with a lifetime warranty. I highly recommend these cards.
