With the VisionTek CryoVenom R9 290, we set out to create a solution that helps you keep your cool while playing your fastest.

Only VisionTek Can Make The Best Even Better

The Radeon R9 290 series of graphics cards was regarded by many as the best that AMD built. However, when these cards are placed under demanding conditions – such as extended game play – the card’s temperature can climb to 201°F. Even with the best fan cooling design and the latest AMD Catalyst driver that provides a 100% fan speed operation, the card’s built-in thermal safety feature can downclock the GPU from the factory 947MHz speed to as low as 662MHz. Combined with this performance reduction of 30%, we’ve measured the increase in fan noise at 70dB… a sound level considered louder than a normal conversation.

The Liquid Cooling Solution to Overheating and Downclocking

We set out to create a solution that helps you keep your cool while playing your fastest. Thus was born the CryoVenom R9 290 liquid cooled graphics card. By utilizing a custom engineered full cover waterblock featuring a narrow microchannel fin and low pressure drop design, the CryoVenom R9 290 can run up to 38% cooler (125°F) while being overclocked up to 24% (1.1GHz). While making the best even better, the CryoVenom R9 290 registers under 10dB of noise – the sound of a pin drop.
