I live in the UK and am on a relatively small budget, £220 is about as high as I can go
I was thinking of either getting the PowerColor
AXR9 280X 3GBD5-DHE (£220) or the XFX Radeon HD 7970 (£210)
Any other suggestions would be great!

P.s. this is my build so far:

get the PowerColor AXR9 280X 3GBD5-DHE (£220). basically the 280x is a rebranded 7970 but its newer. the 7970 will begin its EOL process soon.
