AMD FX 6300 with HIS R9 270x or 280x is needed to run current and future gen games at max60 fps.Will 280x bottleneck AMD FX 6300 or not?
Is HIS better or should I go with Asus as HIS is offering only 2 years warranty where as Asus is offering 3 years warranty.Is the premium price of Asus R9 270x justified?Kindly enumerate the following doubts of mine.

I would go with an asus 280x. The 6300 and 280x are in a realm where they work well with each other without bottlenecking.
I would go with asus. They have a longer warranty and are known for quality

NO Way. FX 6300 can handle much more than R9 280X without bottleneck.

I think you should also check out ZOTAC GTX760. It's recommended by Tom's at around 250$.(Good VFM)

Otherwise, R9 270X & R9 280X, both are great in their respective price ranges.

ASUS is definately better than HIS.

Make sure you overclock it to eliminate bottleneck on the r9 280x.
