Reviewed: AMD Radeon R9 Nano

Test Setup

I tested the AMD Radeon R9 Nano on our MSI X99S Gaming 7 test rig as listed below for all of the benchmarking and general game-play. I also used the BenQ XL2730Z FreeSync enabled 144Hz 2560×1440 27″ display via DisplayPort using the cable that came with the XL2730Z. A new addition to the test bench was the Kingston Savage DDR4 3000 memory, all 32 GB of it with the badass looking lower profile heat spreaders.
