BF4 will be optimized for AMD

 

gmod is like minecraft

 

Arma is terribly optimized and will suck on both

 

And CSGO....too easy

I would go the 280x, more VRAM, BF4 optimized for AMD, and its OC's well...

Do you want to record? NVIDIA GTX 770 has shadowplay and PHYSX and other neat features.

I'd go with the GTX 770 personally.

ARMA 3 does use physx, so buy a 770

If you're wanting to play BF4 then you will want the AMD Radeon R9 280X since it will be optimized for AMD cards. The 280X is also cheaper, has more VRAM, and will trade blows with the 770 for performance power.

Will you get a g-sync monitor? Will you use shadow play? If both answers no, I'll get 280x...
