Radeon R9 280X Club3D royalQueen Edition Game Requirement Analysis

Radeon R9 280X Club3D royalQueen Edition is a special edition of the high-end Radeon R9 280X.
This edition comes with a custom cooling system called "custom backplate", which reduces the card's temperature under load, significantly and comes overclocked out of the box in the central unit that was increased from 850MHz to 925MHz, while the Boost clock remains the same.
Since the Boost Clock remains the same, expect no performance boost, when compared to the reference card.
