The 290 performs well from the 2 reviews i read but they said it is obnoxiously loud. I wouldn't get a reference model unless I was putting it under water. The performance though almost makes the 290x irrelevant at this point. It's very strange.



They must have upped the fan target from the defaults. [H] reviewed the card, and said the fan wasn't an issue at the 47% cap. No additional performance was gained by raising the fan, either.

I noticed some people who had been previous GTX 480 owners complaining about the 290's noise. I loled.
