Really need help deciding between gpu!

Double4free · Jan 21, 2014

Really quick question. Any help would be wonderful.

Gigabyte r9 270 2GB or XFX Radeon HD 7870 2GB

Thanks so much!

the newer 270 is a better card for the money.

Both cars a are 180$ right now. Will I get better performance out of the r9 270? It's not the x just the plain r9 270

Get the Gigabyte 270. You can overclock it to match the 270X anyway.

To me I would avoid both Gigabyte and XFX cards. Gigabyte is one foot in the grave but XFX is six feet under.

Are Gigabyte cards bad?

huilun02 · Jan 21, 2014

No I just don't like their boring Windforce cooler which quite a number of people have found badly seated on the GPU.

I'm still on the fence about deciding. Between the two it seems in benchmarks the 7870 does better.
