Very nice deal.

Is this faster than a 7970 or comparable ?

The 280x is a rebranded 7970. I still use them and have no reason to upgrade until i go freesync.

That is an amazing price for this card.

Got that card and a 7950 in Crossfire... Rips through all games I play on highest settings no problem....

Is the 290x considerably faster?

Is the 290x considerably faster?

I'd say the higher the resolution, the bigger the difference.
