Gigabyte R9 290 WindForce OC Review (1600p, Ultra HD 4K)

To overclock today, we used the dedicated overclocking tools within the latest version of AMD’s Catalyst Control Center.

We managed to get the card stable to 1,100mhz, an additional 5.7% core overclock on the ‘out of the box speeds'. Increasing the power limit settings past 30% did not reap any further reward. The GDDR5 memory had a little extra headroom, hitting 1,319mhz before artifacting would occur.
