First of all, you really should build your own, it will be cheaper. Also the R7 360 will not run your games well, I wouln't be satisfied with it. I'd wait for the 480 thats coming out for $200 that gonna kick ass when you look at price vs performance. The power supply is kinda scary if you ask me, I've never heard of those brands and would the really careful with them and read up alot before I make a choice. Just my opinion though.

I once explained to my girlfriend what true love is. I said, "If you were a shit, I'd put you back in" and to this day, she is still my little shit.

If gaming is the only concern, might as well go with the cheaper RX480 though.

RX480s are currently more expensive than 970s

Thats one of the cheapest 970s, 90% of places have Rx480s at £235 minimum. The other 10% were cheaper but sold out instantly
