Tweaktown has reviewed the ASUS R9 280X DirectCU II TOP 3GB graphics card, which managed to score 91 percent and impressed them enough to get the TT Must Have Best Overclocking Award.

The R9 270X series is the step below AMD's R9 280X and our MATRIX R9 280X. As you can see the DirectCU II cooler is a bit smaller and it doesn't have the CoolTech fan, but it still has the great design and fat heatpipes on top of DIGI+ VRM and Super Alloy Power technology. Here's what you get when you buy one!

AMD's new R9 and R7 series graphics cards are now available, and ASUS has added its renowned DirectCU II and DIGI+ VRM and Super Alloy hardware into the R9 280X, R9 270X and R7 260X designs. This makes them up to 20% cooler and 3x quieter than reference, with a power design that produces 30% less voltage 'noise' and lasts up to 2.5x longer lifespan. For the full spec list, see the PR inside!

It's time for more awesome graphics for the people!
