It's too hot with this cooler. Throttling, throttling, throttling...

Agree - the reference cooler is bad.

Won't be getting the 290X but 2x 290-non-X :)

ordered mine today. I also ordered a Gelid VGA COOLER REV. 2 ICY VISION since it comes recommended from OC.net

Pretty sexy looking cooler there.

Depends what you want to use stock or optimized.
Running 3 instances should be a good start.

BTW the 3rd party GPU HSF doesnt fit just right. the screw down heat sink screw holes don't align correctly. If I had a workshop I'd have just drill new holes. As it was I had plenty of extra smaller Heat sinks that I just lined up to cover it.

I run 4 WU's at a time now with no real slow downs
