Okay so for my new build I have a Sapphire 280X Dual-X OC 3gb, but the other 280X cards just dropped in price, and am wondering if it's worth changing to one of the other ones?

 

These are the cards I have to choose between:

Anything but XFX. I've had nothing but problems with XFX and haven't had any problems with any other manufacturers (besides once with Asus)

NOT XFX

Alright, glad I posted here then! Anyone know the size of the Gigabyte Windforce? The case i'm getting says it fits 290mm but I can't find the length of the card anywhere :/ Worried as Pc part picker won't let me put this card in my build.. O,o

There's a reason Sapphire, Gigabyte and MSI are as popular as they are.

 

XFX have historically made questionable decisions with their GPU designs, and they haven't developed a fantastic cooler for the latest AMD cards either.
