I had saw 2 brands currently in SLS,
Sapphire R9 Nano @$979
Powercolour R9 Nano @$1029/$1039

However not much discussion on the card over here.
Is there any issue with this card?

I only know there's reviews complaining about the coil whine sound.

At that price, better off with fury x unless space is a real big problem.

Space is big problems for me.
I bought a H100i GTX earlier and sold away as too tight.

I rather you change casing as well? Get something can support the rad from fury X. Because the Nano isnt a card really worth having.

It's not worth having unless you really are very cramped for space. Why not silverstone ML07? May or may not fit but it looks more like it would fit easily with the rad right behind the gpu

In either case I would rather pay up the extra cash for 1 year more warranty.

You might as well as wait for R9 Gemini that cost 66% more, but u get double fury X.


Otherwise just spent abit more to change casing and go for a Fury X / GTX 980 Ti or Gemini if u are able to fork out more budget.

2 vs 3 years warranty....

Thanks MoneyFace :)


The Ncase I using very tight, I'm worried Fury X couldn't fits in.

The H100i GTX (240mm) I sold cos I never heed the 1 and only user feedback that the tubing is sleeved & become more difficult to twist & bend.
The old model which is H100i is EOL and alot of user is using.

Had changed to Noctua NH-C14 right now.

Ncase? I don't think it will be able to fit the fury x rad. Nano seems to be the best option for your case.

Get the powercolor for 3 years warranty.
