Sometimes, in this job, the task is rather complex. Delving deep into the guts of a new GPU architecture, summarizing a chip comprised of billions of transistors, understanding the subtleties of frame dispatch and delivery—these things can be hard to do well. At other times, though, things are actually rather straightforward. Happily, the Radeon R9 290 isn't a difficult product to understand if you're familiar with its big brother, the Radeon R9 290X. Heck, what you need to know is this: it's nearly the same product but a way better deal. Allow me to explain.
