If you want the games go for the 760. It could run those games on at least high

Hope I could help!

I personally would get a GTX 770, since they are only slightly more expensive than the R9 280X and will come with the same games.

280X comes with BF4, and there is a magical thing called torrents.

280X. Higher bus than the 760 or 770 and with a higher VRAM count at 3GB.

Why?! DCUII 280X will kill the EVGA ACX 760, for only $40 more.

280X temps on the DCUII will be around 60 Celsius. Would you rather have a warmer GPU or 30 (possibly 50 when we get Mantle) less frames?
