Neither.

Get a R9 280x. Much more performance.

yes the sapphire cards are the best on AMD's side...and yes the R9 280X is noticeably stronger than a GTX 960 and also offer 3GB of VRAM.

around  ± $200.

 

amazon is selling sapphire r9 280 without X  at $180 that is within my budget.

Better price found here though:
