I think it's more the fact that powercolor have released amazing cards at a similar price.
 
what card is that? the 280 is same as 7950 and that cost R3000.... if u have a 280 or 7950 and want another to xfire..to beat a 290X...R1800 is bloody good deal if u ask me....
 
I don't know the powercolor cards very well though so I assumed that was the case.
It's a good price for sure.
 
7950 is a befaaaarkte card. R1800 is most def a bargain.
 
Well it runs like a new R2500 R9 270X card. It's just a question of whether to buy a slightly slower but new card at the R2000 price range or if the buyer is willing to risk buying second hand the maximize performance for R1800 (and essentially save R700)

Theoretically speaking, the Radeon HD 7950 3GB should be much faster than the Radeon R9 270X overall. 34% faster...

http://www.hwcompare.com/15682/radeon-hd-7950-3gb-vs-radeon-r9-270x/

I just look at the average benchmarks, because those benchmarks comes from real world performance and shows the impact of the drivers.

It's still just a rough indication, because not all makes are always equal. The 7950 though has that 1gb extra available though, whereas the 270x just have 2GB

3GB is a bit excessive omw, but if you run massive resolutions. Or are thinking of going VR it might be the better option.
 
Whew, this is a bargain! I wish I had the money at the moment. And I can't believe it hasn't been sold yet.
 
these cards are close to or even could be called the R9 280's so yes 1800 is a good price, i paid almost 4k for my sapphire 7950 boost
 
I payed 4500 when it came out. I Still have the slip.
