Gaming PC build Radeon R9 290 Sapphire Tri-X OC Edition, Core i5-4460 3.2GHz, 16GB performance review
This Radeon R9 290 Sapphire Tri-X OC Edition graphics card, along with a Core i5-4460 3.2GHz can run 198 of the top 1000 PC games released. A gaming PC like this has a Core i5-4460 3.2GHz weak point. If this component was upgraded then the system could play up to 429 games from the 1000 most demanding games of today.
Hardware performance for these gaming components can be compared to one of todays most popular games, Halo: Reach. In summary, the performance delivered by this graphics card easily overpowers that needed by Halo: Reach. We expect to get a very strong frame rate of 141 FPS at 1080p Ultra, but would advise moving up to 1440p Ultra to get 107 frames per second or even 64 FPS at 4K Ultra as the Radeon R9 290 Sapphire Tri-X OC Edition can handle this. It just comes down to your preferred resolution then tweak your graphics settings to deliver the desired effects, without a care for performance.
