280x vs 380?

[FinestRyeBread]

Which one's better in terms of raw performance?

[007agentHP]

280x because of more raw performance. even though it has 1 GB less vram, the 280x still kills it at the $200 Price Bracket

280X for raw computing, 380 for gaming.

Just for some base benchmarks, not opinionated bullshit.

380 also will last you a bit longer.

380 - newer architecture

PS: GPUBoss is crap

280x is a rebadged 7970 ghz edition, thats not a bad thing, the 7970 was a great card but its ancient now.

The 280x is more powerful than the 380 in raw performance but that tahiti gpu is really old now.

The 380 has a much newer gpu which brings much newer features and compatibility so thats the big plus there.

If you go the 380 route make sure to get a 4gb model though, 2gb isnt enough anymore, even at 1080p.

The 3gb of the 280x is still a good amount, so it should get you by for the vast majority of games, I would stick with sapphire for both cards as they generally make the best as far as AMD goes in my considerable experience.
