With a 270 you would most likely never go over 1080p or you shouldn't atleast, so it would only help with loading a lot of textures. Msi has amazing customer service, or from my experience The radeon 200 series and geforce 700 series windforce cooler is ugly with the see through fans, well I think so at least. 

 

 

And if you are okay with throwing an extra 70$ into your budget, and you live in the states, you can grab yourself a powercolor pcs+ radeon 290.

Please don't try comparing it here, they are horrible at judging everything. Try to find a reputable site to judge comparisons.

Google around. Just cpuboss and gpuboss are horribly inaccurate. I mean if you are running a semperon 145 and a r9 290x to judge a gtx 780, then yes they are accurate.
