The r9 280 is still a better deal tha the gtx 960

zappian

For me a 960 costs £170 compared to a 280x also £170! Hopefully it will push prices down on all the cards!

It Won't Fail Cause of Me.

No 2 gb inst enough anymore for 1080p try playing shadow of mordor with ultratextures.

a 960 isnt going to run SoM at ultra anyways?

 

and my 2gb 770 runs it at great 60 fps with high textures and i cannot notice a difference

The 280 is definitely better for me since it costs 190eur and the 960 260eur. Tho prices will drop and only in about 3 months it will reach 200eur

I don't think the 960 is very relevant at the moment, even at $200. 

In three months it won't be relevant at all, because the new r7's and r9's will be coming out very soon by that time

Given the number of people buying 960s i wouldnt count on common sense.

there are actually people who fail in maths that hard?  :huh:

u see her in germany a 960 is around 250€ you can get a strix 970 for around 85 bucks more and get almost three times the performance and the ability to play games even at 1440p with decent fps

not a hard calculation to me

 

and if you have 250 to spend on a gpu you shuld go the red way instead....
