Which card?

GTX 760 or the r9 280x? I know that the r9 280x performs better but the 760 comes with 2 free games. I only plan to do some gaming at 1080p. Is the 760 not enough to run games in ultra such as BF4 and AC Black flag?

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.

r9 280x performs better but the 760 

 

there's your choice.  BF4 is Mantle enables ( and so will alot of new games ) the 20-50% FPS boost it will give will be worth it over two games :P

R9 280x, unless you really want the games then it would make sense to get them for free.

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?
