No they throw that out of their ass all the time without looking at prices the sapphire where you at are very overpriced the Gigabyte windforce is just as good and saves you a bunch $$

Which ever non reference card with good reviews fits the colors of your build. If color doesn't matter get the cheapest card from a good brand you can.

Its 15 euros more, well worth it considering the excellent CS that sapphire offers.

what does CS stand for ?

cooling system i assume...the gigabyte windforce is just as good get something else with the money instead ;)

if you where to purchase a 400euros R9 290 hawaii board i'd tell you to spout the extra 15 for sapphire but with the R9 280 any third party cooler will give you very good temps and great overclocking potential.

How much do you usually charge for a nanosuit? I want two,in black.

 

OT: I'm a gigabyte GPU fanboy,but msi seems to have the highest quality cards though :v . You should probably get the XFX though,lifetime warranty,yes,LIFETIME!
