I am recurring to the communities vast knowledge since I lack the expertise on the subject.
Basically, I'm looking to get a GPU and I have decided on the R9 270x series from which I have 3 options but have narrowed it down to these two since the TOXIC edition has gone up quiet a few bucks and I intend on purchasing one or the other before prices go up again thanks to the mining madness that´s been going on.

Dual-X

Vapor-X

I know that the best option would be the Vapor-X since it has a 1100 Core Clock as opposed to the 1020 from the Dual-X but I can get the Dual-X with BF4 for exactly the same price as the Vapor-X.

My question being, is the 80 MHz really a big difference or would I be better off getting a BF4 for free? Thank you in advance!
 
Solution
Its worth the difference, but not BF4 difference (BF4 is now a unit of measurement :D)

You can easily OC to the same if not higher speeds in a few seconds. Get the Dual-X
