R9 390 is better, but don't sacrifice something like your PSU just to get the 390.

I would possibly suggest the 380x and instead upgrade that PSU with the money saved. But that's just my few cents.

eh, the psu is fine as long as he wont CF.

the 390 is a high tier card right after the Fury series

 

so pretty much this

 

380 < 390 < Fury < Fury Nano < Fury X

 

RAM only say part of the story

 

the higher series number mean the GPU is more powerful than the lower series
