Whats better.

So I have 630 bucks for a new Graphics card and I found this http://www.amazon.com/MSI-R9-290-GAMING-4G/dp/B00HPS4AFG/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1389209768&sr=8-4&keywords=MSI+Gaming+r9+290

 

I am set on buying an R9 290 and for some reason the price on that seems hard to beleive considering that the same thing from newegg is 100 bucks more. Can you guys find a reason why I shouldnt buy this one when it comes back in stock? I am worried ordering from amazon as I have NO experience with them at all.

If they honor that price, then buy it. The price of the R9's have gone up thanks to Coin Miners.

Do it and cancel if they don't honor the price.

Still seems rather steep for an R9 290. @ $400 they are a great buy @ $470, you might as well buy a aftermarket GTX 780.

I dont understand why its that cheap because reference ones are more expensive

The reason I want an r9 290 is because it has 1gb more vram and it can mine while offering the same preformance in games.

Grab a 780 for like 2$ more.. Better temps, more performance. + everything that comes with Geforce Experience and PhysX, CUDA all that fun stuff. I got a 780 and love it!

More than likley an oversight or a pricing glitch.

Yea thats what I thought I guess Ill buy it from newegg. It comes with a free copy of bf4 anyway that I can sell with my gtx 670 since I have bf4 already.
