>r9 380 has too little GRAM

>r9 290 is just perfect
Why did AMD do this? This is the first time I've purchased a GPU that wasn't part of the newest gen.
>>52476435
The 380 us available in 4gb you dingus.
Allso why the hell did you buy a graphics card months away from the first process shrink and architectural overhaul in years?
>>52476435
There's never enough RAM, faggot
>rebrand 290 to 390
>add literally $4 worth of vram
>increase the price by $150
>decrease the price by $50 by going on "sale"
>wew what a deal

Don't forget improvements fab processes and VRAM binning making for higher clocks at the same power consumption.
>>52478466
zero fab or vram improvements were made and the high clocks were assisted by increased gpu voltage.
that is the cold hard truth and i don't give a shit if you try to reply with lies.
>>52476435
Who gives a fuck they don't support hdmi 2.0 What a load of bullshit.
>>52478498
I guess I'll just have to go and buy nVidia then SENPAI
>>52476435
that card would fucking blow up, get one with better cooling
>>52478428
>improved asics
>improved vrms, and all major components
>card runs cooler, clocks better
>drasticly improved cooler (msi 390x runs 20% cooler than msi 290x)
but i will say this, i have dual 290x system, and its a fucking beast rig. a guy offered to buy my cards for the same price i paid 3 years ago lol.
talk about value.
>>52476435
>390
>too much ram
That's just retard speak.
>>52478428
yet performs as good or better than a 290x with less cores and power...
>>52480439
also they were equal in price for afew months
>>52480439
stream processors excuse me
>>52479710
>card runs cooler
This is bullshit, it's the same old GPU with higher clock
