GPU recommendation

[SquaredLogic]

Hello, can you halp me about choosing my new GPU. Two betwen I can't decide are:

-Sapphire R7 260X 2GB GDDR5

-Sapphire R7 250X 1GB GDDR5 VAPOR-X OC

I want them for games like ETS2, Far Cry 3, BF3.

R7 260X is a lot better.

The 260x is the best by far, if you can spend a little more I definitely recommend a 270.

I would recommend you save up some more money then buy something a lot better such as the R9 270.

If you have to choose between them i would Easily recommend the 260x Becouse:
1. 2GB VRAM, Higher textures run better
2. Higher Core and Memory Clocks.
3. About twice as high Texture and Pixel rate.
4. More than twice as many Texture Mapping and Compute units.


But i would rather recommend the 265 becouse it has the Pitcairn architecture.
It has slightly better performence And has newer software and hardware than the 260x

The R7 260X will be better, but, if you can save some more money, you should get something like an R7 265 or an R9 270.
