Which one is the best from all the, the 290X and 780 Ti are both £200 and the 970 is £230, all of them used.

Would the 780Ti have any vram issues as it has 3GB vs the other 2 which have 4 GB (in the case of the 970 3.5GB Trolololol)

What would your uses be ?

My votes would go for 290x or 970 ( although I would wait for amd to come out with new cards )

Recommend what is best, not what you preffer.

"Like" comments to show your support of them or the idea they express.

At 1080p? 780 Ti seems to perform best. After that I would go 970 (because it performs better than 290X at 1080p) and last 290X.

What about a new 290X matrix for 230 vs used 780Ti windforce for 200?
