XFX Double Dissipation R9 390 1015MHZ XXX OC 8GB DDR5 DISPLAYPORT HDMI Dual DVI

Bottom line: The XFX Double Dissipation R9 390 1015MHZ XXX OC 8GB DDR5 DISPLAYPORT: 8GB of GDDR5 VRAM, double the 4GB most cards of this era shipped with; main trade-off: hawaii-based R9 390 draws heavy power; needs a strong PSU with dual PCIe connectors.
