Card Background<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
The ASUS Radeon R9 390<\/a>. It is AMD’s <\/a>most recent line up of available graphics cards. Advanced Micro Devices or AMD <\/a>is a semiconductor and microprocessor company, which is very well known and the leading competitor to Intel, and who runs the Radeon GPU models. The card I am looking at, the ASUS Radeon R9 390<\/a>, is an exceptional choice for gaming with an average of 4 to 5 star reviews. Many times people get caught up in poor customer support, but in an article by www.laptopmag.com<\/a> they ranked ASUS <\/a>in the top 10 of tech support, finding that the company was extremely responsive and active with social media and their customer support services, than in past years. ASUS <\/a>is doing all it can to better improve its company, and the service it gives to their customers.<\/div>\n

Interface Details:<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
This card includes some interesting digital ports and connections. Such as HDMI<\/a>, Display port, and HDCP support<\/a>. DVI <\/a>stands for Digital Visual Interface and can be used to connect computer monitors. DisplayPort <\/a>can connect computer monitors, and carry audio, USB, and other forms of data. DisplayPort <\/a>is very similar to HDMI<\/a>, or High Definition Multimedia Interface. It has become the main standard, and can connect an array of digital devices. It is very important to have a selection of digital connections, especially HDMI<\/a>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Along with the connections, there are some slightly hard to understand words in the specifications. The bus standard is the standard that at which data can be transferred and the connection it needs to do so. The video memory allows the graphics card to handle its own processes, and can use its own memory to handle complex graphics at a faster rate. The memory clock speed is the rate and speed at which the memory actually runs, while the memory interface is basically how much memory can go through, but isn’t as important as it used to be. When comparing the memory interface on Graphics Cards, I recommend a higher model, and increased number, for they are preferred for better performance. The card also includes a OpenGL of 4.4. This means that the standard application interface can be used to define 2-D and 3-D graphics, which works with the GPU <\/a>(Graphics Processing Unit) to render images.<\/div>\n

Features:<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
The features on the ASUS Radeon R9 390<\/a> are very expansive and can be utilized very well. The fans on the Radeon are made with aero-space grade quality in mind, \u00a0making it a reliable choice with a silent Triple Wing-Blade 0dB Fan Design, which allows max air flow. Not only does this graphics card have fans, but has it’s own heat-sink capabilities as well. The DirectCU III with 10mm Heatpipe allows your GPU to have 40% less heat going to it for cooler gaming performance. \u00a0Not only does this card have incredible hardware, but software too. Introducing the GPU Tweak II with XSplit Gamecaster, you can overclock and monitor your card, in a visual and easy to use way. You can also use the gaming booster to help the game run, and even record and stream your game-play directly without any other software than what comes in the box.<\/div>\n
