ASUS vs MSI?

[kr1kit]

Does anyone have experience with either the MSI or the ASUS R9 390x? I'm having a hard time picking between the two, however the MSI seems to have slightly better reviews on Newegg and NCIX(even though I never put a ton of stock into website customer reviews).

I hear the ASUS has better cooling overall, any thoughts?

-> CHECK THIS REVIEW <-

Iam not experienced with AMD cards about a decade but based on this review -> MSI one (it's slighlty more power consuming

Out of the two I'd go for MSI, but in generally I'd heavily recommend going for Sapphire's Tri-X one. Sapphire specializes in AMD cards and makes great coolers (as long as they fit in your case).

Asus normally dont provide cooling to the memory. Its not necessary but i prefer to see memory included. So I would go with MSI ot Sapphire. Just choose the cheaper one or the one with better design in your opinion.

Would this happen to be it? I couldn't find a Tri-X version on NCIX or Newegg.

Yup, that's the one. You should go for it instead of the MSI or Asus ones (as long as it fits in your case).

The reviews for it all seem to be great, I will definitely check it out, thanks !
