Hey guys I am looking at getting one of the r9 270x and was wondering which one is best if i don't want to overclock it. I heard the Gigabyte is the best one for this but i am not sure.

Also will the card work with my motherboard: M68MT-S2P.

More about : 270x

Yes the R9 270x will work with the M68MT-S2P - just put it in the PCI-E x16 slot.

Make sure your PSU is rated at least 500W.

I'd pick this Sapphire version:

There's a Gigabyte as well,

but the Sapphire costs $30 less and gives you BF4 as well. The Gigabyte has 4GB of RAM (vs 2GB for the Sapphire) but I doubt that's going to make a serious difference.

I have Bf4 already but i was planning on going with Overclockes(UK) where the Gigabyte is a little bit cheaper (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX...) or would you still recommend getting the Vapor-X (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX...) ?
