I'm gonna build a nice gaming rig that i would like to last me at least 3 or more years, so the only doubt i have is about the gpu. I'm gonna use it mainly for gaming mild to hardcore 1080 resolution, mild overclock, and internet surfing
I have to choose from a 280x that it's a pretty good card, i think it will last 1 or 2 more years in ultra- high resolutions it's also a cheap card so i could spend less and have more money in my wallet.
The r9 290 i heard is a good card it almost reaches the gtx 780 performance but runs really hot and really really loud i'm ready to wait for the non reference cooled r9 290 card but when will those cards come out? I'm not gonna wait till september for them.
The gtx 780 is the one i'm more inclined to buy, is a good card, the super jetstream i choose for my build reaches titan levels but will it perform on ultra- high in 2-3 years from now? i'm not so sure about it.
I would like some suggestions on this hard decision
My rig has: i5 4670k/ asus z87- pro/ 8 gb ripjawsx/ xfx 750 xxx edition
