    Engineering Sample 290x

    I recently got a (lightly used) 290x and realised it was an engineering sample. I'm planning to sell it, so are they worth more or less than a lightly used retail 290x? Thanks.

    Correlation between watts and temperature

    Thanks for your replies, really appreciate it even though there wasn't a concrete answer. I post here if I do find the answer in the future (probably won't).

    Mounting liquid cpu cooler on R9 290x

    Yup, those were my initial options but I just wanted to see where I could go with the non-conventional route Thanks

    Correlation between watts and temperature

    I see where you're going but there's no cooling involved so the temperature increases infinitely as time passes. The thing with coolers is that they become more efficient as delta T increases, correct? Or else temps wouldn't stabilize at all? But from the link from my 3rd edit, it almost looks...

    Mounting liquid cpu cooler on R9 290x

    Not looking for an open loop atm, I just went with a Noctua NH U14S and see if I can mod it on

    Correlation between watts and temperature

    Is there a function that describes this correlation? For example, let's say a cooler cools a cpu towards an equilibrium of 50 C. If I double the heat produced by the CPU, everything else remaining the same (except for watts, but that's out of the question), how much will the equilibrium...

    Mounting liquid cpu cooler on R9 290x

    Can a mod move this to cooling instead? I feel like I put this in the wrong section now that I think about it...
