Hi,
I'm buying a new Graphics card and I have been comparing these 2 cards
Radeon HD 7870 IceQ X & Radeon R9 270X IceQ X².
http://www.gpuzoo.com/Compare/HIS_H270XQM2G2M__vs__HIS_H787QN2G2M/
They are pretty closely matched but the R9 270X is the stronger card, however I only have a PCIe 2 bus. I believe the R9 would max out a PCie2 bus's Memory bandwidth and the HD7870 is just under. How much would this affect the performance?
Should I get the R9 or the HD7870?
