Overclocking
In addition to the gargantuan cooler, PowerColor outfits the PCS+ board with a digital PWM and DirectFET MOSFETs. Clean, efficient power delivery should result in a good overclocking experience and we can attest to that. With little effort and no added voltage, we were quickly able to increase core and memory speeds to 1,115MHz and 6,000MHz, respectively.
The overclock ekes out a 6-7 per cent performance increase, and that's enough to put the R9 290X PCS+ in and amongst the overclocked GeForce GTX 780 Tis.
