GPU Questions, Not sure yet.

I was thinking of buying a rx 480 8gb, but i started researching and looking at other cards as well and it seems that a 980ti or a R9 390X 8gb would be a solid choice as well. Reason being that in Greece the rx480 costs 299.99 to 359,99 and the 980ti is 480~ while the R9 is 390~ 
Would the R9 (Sapphire Nitro edition) be a better choice? I know that it is power hungry and needs better cooling, but considering the prize gap the R9 390X should be better than the RX 480 right?

Thanks in advance!

get the 980ti if your psu can handle it/ has 2x8pin pci in it. Other wise wait for 1060 and aftermarket 480's to drop

also 480 is arund same as 390 for perf

Oh. You're fine. Awesome . Good on you for not buying a CX series.

 

Yeah, I'd say RX 480 but try and wait until the price drops a bit.

Maybe I'd settle on a aftermarket RX480? But dunno when they do come out and when I'll be able to buy them here.

They should come out in a month and they may cost $50 more than the Reference cards.

If this stands true, the 1060 is fairly close right?

Read here- http://bit.ly/29yrtr6 why you should get a 1060 over 480.

It is a PC Build but there is TechTalk after the Storage configuration, you'll find it.

I wouldn't trust a source that claims the 960 to perfrom better than the 380 and the 760 to perfrom better than the 280.

It's pure speculation either way. Seems that Either a Sapphire or Asus RX480 might be the answer i need. If the 1060 does prove better at around the same price I'd go for that.
