Hello, so i'm building a Budget Gaming PC for the first time and i've bought most of my parts

 

- Msi B85 G43 Gaming Mother Board.

- Intel Pentium G3258

- 500GB HDD Seagate

- CX500M PSU

 

Any way i need help picking out a Graphics Card. Im in about the $100-250 USD Range.  i have looked at the R9 380x and a GTX 960. i also have heard the rumors of the GTX 960TI i just figured this forum was the best way to get some answers on what i should pick. if you do any research on the Mobo you would no that the B85 G43 is a Cross Fire only board and that a 280x is a 250Watt GPU and if i plan on buying another 280x in the future i would have to upgrade my Psu which i dont want to do so thats why i have looked at the R9 380 and the 380x

 

 

Also i was wondering if MSI makes a 380x because my setup is mostly Black and red Right now.

I would wait a bit longer. I have heard about the 960Ti but I don't know if it's confirmed.

You arent getting a 390x in that range

stick with a 380 or 380x from a different brand

I'd look at a 290, maybe even a 290x at that price range

If anyone asks you never saw me.
