Both are good, Sapphire is better

Hello,

Is the Sapphire R9 390 worth the extra 20 € over the XFX one?

I'm kinda over the budget already but I can get the 20€ from somewhere if It's needed.

I wouldn't touch an XFX since a friend of mine had a 290 DD with throttling VRMs. They might have improved, but still I'd suggest getting Sapphire or MSI. Powecolor PCS is a decent option too.

Apparently that has been fixed.

As much as I am a Sapphire fanboy, 20 pounds is really steep. Get xfx. Its like a rolls royce to an s class.
