Tattsyrup

I am looking to upgrade my r9 280x to either a gtx 980, gtx 780ti or gtx 690

 

which is best for gaming 

 

quieter is better but if the other card is faster i will pick that 

 

i am buying from the UK using neweggs new UK site so selection is limited

 

Thank you in advance for anyone who replies

Don't get the 690 as you'll end up with vram issues. Get a 980 or a 780 Ti.

If you want something goo for gaming and quiet, look into the Asus Strix 970, its the best bang for the buck gpu right now, just now they're selling like crazy. If you want a pick from your list i would choose a gtx 980

gtx 690 ftw @ 300$

gtx 970 not bad

gtx 780 ti not bad if under 250$

where would you get a 780ti under $250?

Why would you want a 780ti for over 250$ when you can get a 970 for 330$ should be the question

-Sales... I got my 770 windforce (only 2gb) for 170$ or 180$

You're wrong :P

Jk, but the 780 ti is about the same performance as the 980, just with more power consumption. ;)

I just upgraded from my 280x to a 780ti, since i got it for around 300bucks, which was just insane.

It is much quiter an delivers a noticeable better performance. If it is alot cheaper, i would always go for the 780ti. If the price is around the same, i would prefer the 980, of course.

780ti is good, but I wouldn´t buy a "old" card overpriced that needs far more power for a few fps than a 970/980 for about the same performance.

A factory overclocked 970 will do the same job, if not even better.

That 100 watt extra for the 10fps more... hmm everyone must decide for themselves.
