Gigabyte Radeon R9 280X REV2 OC 1100MHZ 3GB 6.0GHZ GDDR5 DVI HDMI 2XMINIDP PCI-E Video Card
Cons:-For 1 of my 2 cards, driver crashes/system hangs after 2 hours under load.-Both cards runs a little hot compared to other R9 280x (these at 83-85, where MSI are 78-83)
Pros:-Standard R9 280x performance.- Quality construction. |
Bought 2 of these less than a week ago for litecoin mining. Fired both of them up for testing purposes (all speeds at stock) and found that they perform nicely. Unfortunately 1 of the 2 cards constantly dies after approximately 2 hours of use, causing a driver crash and sometimes a system hang. I have tried swapping pci-e slots between the 2, and even a completely different rig, yet the same card keeps dying. Although both cards perform well, I've had much MUCH better luck with my 2 MSIs, which have been running for months straight at full load with no hiccups.
