480... Pretty similar to 390x but draws way less power.

Two cards:

 

RX 480  $359.99 CAD

R9 390X  $339.99 CAD

 

Both cards have 8 GB VRAM and are paired with an i5 6600K, I am planning to do some overclocking and use these cards for roughly 3 years.

Which one is the better buy??

this one...unless you have a freesync monitor or plan to do crossfire in the future (which i don't recommend):
