ASUS R9 280X DirectCU II TOP
 

You guys should head on over to Vortez this morning and check out their review of the ASUS R9 280X DirectCU II TOP video card. For comparison purposes, you can see our evaluation here. This card is NOT a replacement for the HD7970, that honour goes to the upcoming R9 290X. HD7950? No, that will be the R9 290. The 270X features the Pitcairn core which was the base of the 78XX series of GPUs so where does that leave the R9 280X? Which card does this replace?
