R9 390 vs 390x for 1080p 144hz / 1440p

 

IS the £70 / $108 extra for the 390x worth it?

probably not worth it because of the little performance gain but big gap between costs

The 390 is better value for money, but of course there are situations where you "have to" shell out for that little bit of extra performance.

I'd probably spend the extra £70, while it is more you can easily find bigger price gaps for smaller performance gains (Titan X and 980 Ti for example).
