GTX960 vs R9 380

[Jetfighter808]

Which is the better choice considering the following:

 

1. I care about my electricity builds.

2. I live in the UK and the r9 380 is £10 more

3. I might get into blender so might want GPU accelerated renders.

4. I play CSGO

5. I play X-Plane

6. I use Autocad

7. Might get an Nvidia shield in the future if I were to get a 960

 

I know the r9 380 is better value but it doesn't support CUDA so what is the best GPU for my case.

 

EDIT: I am getting the 4gb one in either case.

You answered yourself, the 960 is the best GPU for you (the 380 doesnt use that much more power)

1. The wattage difference is about that of a light bulb at full load. 

2. If the gtx 960 4gb is cheapear get it 

3-6. It should be ok for all that.

7. If you want that then get gtx 960.
