With the confined range of about 15k, I started searching for my next replacement of Sapphire HD 5770. Assassin's Creed- Black Flag, Metro Last Light, Crysis 3 and upcoming beauties- Dark Souls II, Evil Within, Dying Light etc were primary motivating factors for me.

So I did some research on tomshardware.com and few other sites. They all told me that r9 270 packed a punch and if I am willing to shed a thousand bucks more, 270x can be slightly better option. It all resulted in sleepless nigh...

Firstly, If you are planning to buy this card, Please make sure you have all requirements from below check list. This is as per my experience with this card.

1. Recommended. 600W PSU (Make sure its a branded PSU like CoolerMaster or VIP as they are reliable) you need 2x 6pin connectors and extra connectors for external fans, which you may install separately (its a power hungry card)
(Check number of vacant power slots in you system before purchasing. Cheap PSU have limited)
2. Min. 4GB RAM, ...

BEST GRAPHICS CARD IN THIS PRICE RANGE. HAD A WONDERFUL GAMING EXPERINCE.
Crysis 3 ultra setting everything on and game is running super smoooooth with dual core processor just 2 gb ram and yes i've also bought corsair 650W smps with this one coz this card needs minimum of 600W power supply.
STOP THINKING JUST BUY. ;)

i just brought this card from kolkata local store as their price was lot less than flipkart (just 15199). now a days products in flipkart are getting too overpriced specially the all r9 series of amd is overpriced in flipkart.. get it from local as u can save a lot more like 700-800 rupees..
now coming to the performance , the card is a stealer. it outperformed my gtx 660 very easily at 10-12 fps more in all avg games... i played ghost at ultra and got some decent 52 fps..
the dual -x cooling...

I belong to the game developer community and have to keep upgrading my hardware every 2 years - the hard reality. This one is nasty card!!! The decision of buy this card was worth it.

Neat. Comes with an extra Crossfire cable. I realised the manual isn't enough to guide you through the assembling because it did not mention that the 2 power connectors need to be plugged in. Rest of it are pretty simple. Occupies 2 rear slots.

I ran Heaven (supposed to be the most unbiased GPU benchmarking to...

It's 1280 stream processors with a clock frequency of 1070 MHz delivers excellent performance,this card is comparatively better than it's equivalent Gtx 760.The temperature doesn't exceed 50 degrees,but it goes over 60-65 d...

Radeon R9 270X Dual-X is surely a BEAST.
The Best GPU in the Price Range. You can Play any game in Very High setting, mostly in ultra settings. Using it since 3 and half months and It has amazed me at every point.
Surely a Must Buy. Don't Go for Vapor-X as it is costlier and not much of a difference.

PLAY EVERY GAME WITH ULTRA SETTING WITH THIS BEAST.
Just Love It.

Can play almost all latest games in Ultra or maximum settings in 1080p resolution without any lag.

but card gets heated up while playing large games like GTA V.
card is too big, those who are using multiple PCI slots and crossfire large size gaming boards are preffered. im using MSI A78M-E35 motherboard where i don't have space to use other PCI slots after inserting this card.

larger cabinets with extra fans and 500W SMPS highly recommended.
Noise level is normal.

its a compelling buy f...
