i dont get it some of the people are saying the amd hd 7970/ r9 280x is cheaper than gtx 760 where i find gtx 760 cost $250 while 280x cost $450 in newegg
 
Solution
The 7970 used to run about $300 before the r9 series and bit mining exploded driving the prices up a ton. But that was several months ago. You could find a 7950 for 190 after 20 rebate... But those days are gone haha

Depends on ur budget but that is probably correct. The 760 is a great card though and if you have the right cooling can be overclocked quite a bit. I got mine running stable with a core clock of 1306mhz at 81c in furmark with the fans at a tolerable level
