not sure what the state of GPUs are right now but I've read that the 390x can perform well enough against the 980 because of dx12, so I would say 390x, also 8gb vram

just get one you like best... aftermarket cooler isnt going to vary much

 

if you dont care about looks, the xfx or msi or sapphire are all great

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

XFX, Sapphire, PowerColor are all good AMD only brands.

MSI and Asus have some good AMD cards too.

Oh shit would 550W (Gold) be enough for R9 390X?

DX12 the 390X and 980 trade blows.

DX11 the 980 hands the 390X it's ass, especially if you're not using some 4,7ghz 6700K.

the question now is, will your PSU be able to run it?

My PSU is 550W will it still work just fine?

Viewing your post behaviour, it's hard to tell what exactly you own, plan on buying or intend to do with it.

 

Your signature says 4460, but you have a topic running for a 4790K?

Your signature says "maybe 980TI", but here you are discussion 390X or 980?

 

Are you sure you're not just baiting?

I've heard bad things about Asus for either side since they've been apparently slacking on VRM cooling.

Well the 390x has a 275 watt TDP so it depends on the rest of your system.

A 550 Watt 80 Plus Gold might be a bit tight, I believe it has a little more TDP than the GTX 980 Ti and they recommend a minimum of 600 Watt for that one.

Main rig: Intel i7 6700K @ 4 Ghz with Silverstone Argon AR06 + Noctua NF-A9x14 PWM, Asus Z170I Pro Gaming, 2 x 8 GiB Corsair LPX Red @ 2.133 Mhz, MSI GTX 1080 Founders Edition, 2 x Samsung 850 Evo 500 GB, Corsair SF600, Silverstone Raven RVZ02 (no window version).

 

For on the road: MSI GE72 2QC Apache with 16 GiB RAM upgrade.

 well if you're upgrading, I suggest getting a higher wattage PSU. ~650 watt maybe? just a little bit more headroom
