I have no brand preference.
my r9 280x is @ 1070/1500 @ 1.142 volts, and performs pretty darn well most of the time.
Debating going for an r9 290 if I can find one in the price bracket I want (~200$ used).
Gtx 970's aren't really available used yet, but can be had for 330$. Would it be worth the extra 130$ over the r9 290? (probably not, but maybe). and would the r9 290 be worth it over the r9 280x?
Tough choice. I play diablo 3, bf4, bioshock infinite right now, looking towards: Witcher 3, LOTR SoM, any future BF games etc.
What would you do?
