neither of these honestly. if you want a great GPU which you can use for 4 years then it's HANDS DOWN the R9-295X2.

 

but still out of all of them it's R9 280x or the R9 280

wtf dude

 

280x will last him 4 years, he didn't say he wants to play games on ULTRA for 4 years...

Just get the Gigabyte Windforce 280(x)(or go for the 285, which I would choose in your situation). More future proof than the 960 and the windforce cooler is enough for the ambient temperature where you are.

What do you think is the better GPU that can be still good for the next 4years?

GTX 960 why?

R9 280X why?

R9 280 why?

Im living in the Philippines so the temperature may affect.

 

None, both 280x and 280 is already 3 years old, i guess it will last for another 2-3 years at best.  Try to buy R9-290/GTX780.

960 is just pathetic.

indeed what's your resolution?  i think ( assume) you are gaming on a 1080P monitor?. 

a R9 280x is the best of the three. But 4 years is a long time.. I don't know if you can save some more money?  if that's a option i would buy a 970 or a 290/ 290x .

Otherwise a 280x is fine.

wait a little while and see what the r9 380x has to offer. as it should be a r9 290x rebrand. you'd be getting a much faster card for similar money.
