Which Card?

[SlaughterSmurf]

So I am going to get one of these cards. I don't care about features. mostly about performance, but quieter never hurts. In your opinion which card is better? the 290x is $530 and the 780 is $570.

If you only care about performance, go for the 290X.

both are great,but i think the 290x is faster BUT louder and consumes more power

290x will perform better.

780 imo.

290X

For that price, 290x hands off. It's the faster card and it's even cheaper.

Would the 290x be significantly louder than the 780?
