2x 290s, as in sig. Both from ebay, both hynix. Quite pleased. Also, a powercolor ref. 290 in my X58 rig, though this one has elpida. It can unlock though :O

My son is running an R9-270x paired with an Athlon II x4 630. It does surprisingly well in BF4. Decent (playable) frame rates on High graphics setting.

Running a 260X and waiting for 390X. These card is cheap here and have good performance in 1080P.

Skyrim: with 22 mods (most textures and RCRN for shaders and FXAA) with 60fps most time and dips to 47-52 in open areas with a lot vegetation. No MSAA.

BF4 Multiplayer: performace with mantle is 70-80 fps on medium presset with mesh and aniso on ultra.

Divinity Original Sin: shadow on high, DOF and Screen Space OFF and gives lock 60fps in many cases with dips to 45-50 in demanding situations such as in battles with many enemies. But the turn base combat helps a lot and the game is perfect playable.

PC:

3930K - nepton 280L - 16GB ddr3 1600mhz - HX1000W - SSD ForceGT 128GB - 760T

XFX R9 290 DD... which actually got sold early this week (so I claim it none the less).

I *just* upgraded to a pair of 7950 cards, so I voted R9 280 (their closest equivalent in the poll).

Currently just doing DC with them, torture-testing them if you will. Card hits 70C, fan-speed 53%, something around 3200RPM. A little concerned that GPU-Z reports 12V as 11.72V. I'm using a nearly-new Antec EarthWatts 500W, with a G3258 @ 3.8.

Have a 7870 that has been sitting in the shelf for months. The cooler is broken and I cant be bothered to RMA / buy a custom cooler. Since my gaming consists mostly of Strategy and MOBA (League of Legends / Dota2), Kaveri does an adequate job of pushing pixels without the additional noise or heat.

I had a 7870 until it busted in a car accident (long story). So I was making do with my old 5770 until Dragon Age Inquisition came out, at which point I bought my 270X. I may just sell it and upgrade once AMD comes out with the R 300 series.

Sapphire 7970 as per my sig. I did not vote in the poll because I'm on Tapatalk, and because I'm unsure what the purpose of the poll is...

Well, I do have a 290X sitting on my desk, but can't use it yet. (OSX driver issues)

It's a shame, but will have to sell it if the situation does not improve :(

I put down 250X, though it's actually a HD7770- the 250X is just a rebrand of the same card though...

I still own a reference 290 or a 290X with a BIOS flip switch and a bump in voltage it works just fine. I also own a handful of APU's which have pretty decent gaming capabilities for integrated video (comparable to low end Radeon R7 series cards).

A8-7600
A10-7800
A10-7850K

Ref. Sapphire R9 290 w/ Elpida ram

First card from either camp I've bought near launch since the Radeon 8500 came out.
