Well I'm in the market for a GPU and I was wondering if the R9 290 MSI Gaming was worth getting at like $470?

 

I was gonna get a 780 Classy but it's really pushing the budget.

Is it the refference design or non-refference?

It is a decent price for it. If I would convert the price of the card where I live to dollars it would cost 535 Dollars

FFFFFan boy alert!

 

Ontopic: Depends on if you want to spend the extra few bucks for the (in my opinion) better features from nVidia. Performance wise they are pretty similar ( where the the 780 is slightly better and cooler )
