Asus, MSI, Gigabyte or Saphire are all those that I reccommend. Avoid reference*.

 

*Is there even reference models?

well sapphire is the best for amd but maybe they don't ship to your country after that the MSI and gigabyte are the best

 

EDIT : HIS or powercolor are good also but ehh if others like msi, gigabyte or sapphire are available choose those.

You would think Ubisoft would support the Bulldozer based architectures more given their digging themed names like bulldozer, Piledriver, Steamroller and Excavator.

Check out the MSI 380, but you should consider the 960 from Nvidia

<Insert joke here>

Both have their advantages. Nvidia has PhysX and GSync and AMD has Mantle and TrueAudio

Don't forget Free-sync and that PhysX can be run off the CPU.

Nvidia have Advanced PhysX which only a handful of games use it.

I would get the MSI 380 / sapphire.

 

My buddy has the sapphire and it's great for him

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.

"Like" comments to show your support of them or the idea they express.

I like the Asus and the MSI one. Both perform reasonably well and are reasonable quiet and those are my reasonable reasons why I chose those reasonably priced and reasonably performing R9 380s.

Is 4 gb vram any benificial than 2 gb vram in 1080p gaming?

Yes, a lot of games can easily go over 2 Gb nowadays.

and freesync which is the same as gsync, also 380 gets you more for your money
