Just one of those hasty overviews from way-back October 10th 2013; 5 mo's after original release. And their Verdict, "The fact that the high clockspeed barely translates into any actual fps performance gains..."
The thing that the reviewer fails to mention was the 280X had just released 2 day prior for $299, while this Asus still retailed for ~$269. If it hadn't been for the mining craze, AMD had the 760's clearly in the crosshairs.
