Super graphics card, assign from a performance point about the upper midrange. Previously I had a HIS Radeon HD 7790 iCooler Turbo and compared to this is the increase in performance with the R9 280X MSI immense. Finally, I can most games, even newer titles, gamble on high rather than on medium settings, with some not quite new titles, it is also possible to add highly enforce some settings on ultra without that the framerate suffers very topsy. Another positive aspect is the volume - the card is extremely quiet, even under load, it does not bother me absolutely. However, it should be noted that the card is relatively large. With 27cm length it has so just fit in my case (Sharkoon Vaya). Half a centimeter more and I would have got real problems. It requires two power connectors, a six-pole and an eight-pole, which should not be a problem with most brand power supplies. Overall, I would recommend the map. I paid on Ebay just 150 euros for a almost new model, but also to the 200 euros would it still have been okay. So I must have made an absolute bargain.
