congrats. now start gaming
A bit off-topic.
I too was planning to purchase the 280x but having read numerous issues about artifacting and basic quality control issues I've decided to go for the GTX 770. The ASUS one retails for 28k online. Yes, it's more expensive but there are far FEWER issues pertaining to it. I mean if you read the official forum thread for the ASUS 280x , it's basically flooded with complaints.
Just trying to have a discussion. Please avoid the flaming. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
Thanks man i got what u suggested.... took me a little while...

Like I mentioned , I expect a few rotten eggs in a basket but for some reason the issue is very much real. Apparently undervolting does seem to help but not confirmed to work in all cases.

Like I mentioned , I expect a few rotten eggs in a basket but for some reason the issue is very much real and in a rather large proportion. Apparently undervolting does seem to help but not confirmed to work in all cases. I initially thought the HIS version was the most stable but upon asking users on Newegg , a few reported of artifacts as well.

I've had 3 Asus mobos die on me. Ever since, I avoid that brand like the plague.
OP: Congrats on your purchase. Hope you have better luck than me.
it is not with asus alone.. see the links posted above.
Yeah, just noticed that. Seems to be a QC issue with the GPU itself.
i see...that's pretty sad and bad. i think there are few people here with 280x including op. Nobody has reported any problems yet to my knowledge. [MENTION=149723]gta0gagan[/MENTION] ,have you faced any artifacts??

You an also consider Powercolor
Why? Because your friend is using them for XFire?
@op: go for other brands with good after sales. Like zotac, Sapphire..
Does Zotac have good a.s.s. when it comes to graphics cards?? How about in Bangalore?go for other brands with good after sales. Like zotac, Sapphire..
he has already bought it.
