amd vs nvidia

[NicekillBG]

sorry for the misunderstood tittle but is there a comparison for the 270x toxic at the same price or it beats it rivals?(i know the gigabyte one)

[Humbug]

760?

[Mao_Zedong]

Yes, the 280 https://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvr928wf3oc3gd It costs less than the 270x toxic and will perform much better.

NVIDIA has nothing that beats 270x for the same price ... maybe GTX 760 but then you can afford R9 280 which beats it.

[Enderman]

The 270X is equivalent to a GTX760.

thanks all but the only problem is that i live in Bulgaria and newegg doesnt work for me

I found a place where they sell 280 cheaper but the specs were worse than the toxic one so i wonder what is the diff between them

huh? a 280 is better than any 270X

if you can't find a toxic go with the gigabyte one. but if a 280 is cheaper go with that.

How possibly could be specs on 280 worse than on 270x? If you mean clocks (frequency in MHz) that is not a factor. You can compare card performance in MHz if you compare two of the same. 280 has a lot more stream processors, ROPs and tesselation. It will wipe floor with 270x.

should i trust game debate? http://www.game-debate.com/gpu/index.php?gid=1898&gid2=1861&compare=radeon-r9-270x-sapphire-toxic-2gb-oc-edition-vs-radeon-r9-280

People in my country are tech dumb and put wrong specs i just checked it again and they were wrong... and yeah i dont compare mhz i used to do that when i was 12

Thats an awful website to use.

 

Just type in "GPU XXXX" Benchmarks and it will show you real game performance.

 

No matter how you slice it, the R9 280 is much better than the R9 270X.  Buy the 280 with confidence.

The 280 chip is a slightly cut down 280x.

It has more bandwidth and memory than the 270x. Which means it can better handle the current gen of memory hungry games.

Also when overclocked it performs like a stock 280x, which the 270x cannot reach...

The ONLY GPU comparison site worth reading is Anantech

270x VS 280 (check other GPU's too if you want)

R9 280 slaps the 270x and the 760.

Go for it.
