SAPPHIRE is the largest AMD graphics cards manufacturer in the world and now more than a decade guarantee of high quality pixel accelerator. The range comprises the entire repertoire from entry level through to the overclocked versions with separate cooler designs. So of course it can not take the manufacturer to be the expansion of the Radeon R7 and R9er series of the party.
AMD introduces the R7 and R9 two new graphics cards series, which replace the Radeon HD series. The different models are doing all players - from the casual gamer to the hardcore true enthusiasts - satisfy. With SAPPHIRE R9 280X Tri-X OC a model of the R9 series, this is clearly categorized in the high-end segment appears. The map arranges itself in terms of performance in approximately at the level of the HD 7970. The video card appears in the 2-slot format and has a large heat sink on the three fans sitting

The GPU is clocked at SAPPHIRE Radeon R9 280X Tri-X OC with 1,100 MHz maximum boost and memory with 3200 MHz (effective 6400). The RAM is three gigabytes in size and connected via a 384-bit interface. The bandwidth in communication between the graphics card and mainboard or CPU falls high, because the SAPPHIRE R9 280X Tri-X OC uses the current interface standard PCI Express 3.0, thus – with a suitable residual Hardware – the bandwidth over PCIe 2.0 on 16 GB / s doubled.
The SAPPHIRE R9 280X Tri-X OC relies on DirectX 11.1 and controls to monitor two DVI and one HDMI port or two mini display ports, where one or more corresponding displays at the same time (3D) can take over representation and CrossFireX Eyefinity thanks. In this case, up to five monitors supported simultaneously. Sophisticated techniques such as Mantle API help to create a faster and more direct connection to the GCN architecture and thus a much faster computation and therefore ultimately for a more realistic gaming experience. The power is supplied via two 8-pin PCIe connectors. For operation, the manufacturer recommends a PSU with at least 750 watts of power.
In order to realize the full potential of the card in the future, new drivers from AMD should (formerly ATI) or SAPPHIRE be downloaded and installed at regular intervals. This is thanks to the Gaming Evolved clients now also very simple and completely automated possible. This Lite Retail version is no HDMI cable is otherwise identical to the full retail version.
