hi

i'm planing on building soon and i can't decide betwen these 2 graphics cards

asus r9 280x 3gb directcu ii top
msi r9 280xtwin frozr oc 3gb

my setup will be I5 4670K and motherboard msi Z87 G45 but can change depending on your recomendations.

also wanting to know what PSU should buy, 650 will be enough or should i go with a 750.

also don't plan on overclocking soon and possibly buy another graphic card later next year.

Thank you.

I went with the Asus, runs cooler and OCs better, 650 is plenty on the PSU (good to have a little extra) ;)

I went with the Asus r9 280x top for my new build....and I'm very happy! Only had it 2 days but no problem playing everything on High/ultra and can hardly hear it, even after hours of gaming....I don't have the best setup in the world but should keep me happy for a few years...

i5 4670k
Asus R9 280 TOP
Asus Z87-K motherboard
8GB Corsair Vengeance (2x4GB)
Corsair TX650 PSU
Xigmatek Midgard 11 case
