No doubt.. I just swapped my R9 270X with a GTX 760 because of all it's problems. AMD's drivers only cause you problems. I got black screens all time. The GTX 760 is also faster than the R9 280X..
Availebility is important too, AMD GPU's are most used for Bitcoin mining, that's also the reason why the prices have gone up.
 


LOL 280X is re-branded 7970 and it cannot be slower than GTX760 but you right about drivers and prices!

The GTX 770 from what I've seen appears to be a little bit faster.
If the difference is only $25 then why choose a different processor as well?

i heard a lot of people say that the r9 280x tOXIC iS 78- in stock speed..
and its only 25$ more then 770 4gb..

there is any diffrence between 4570 -- 3470 ??
I an buy Gtx 770 4gb + 4570 in 25$ less
then the r9 280x Toxic + 3470..
 
both cards are so close in performance that its nearly impossible to perceive the difference. technically for gaming the full tahiti chip is faster than the full gk104 chip, but its only measurable after average to high overclocks and in synthetic benchmarks. get whatever card is cheaper, you will be very happy with either one.
 
Get GTX-770 and i5-4670(k), GTX-770 is slightly faster than reference R9-280X but Sapphire R9-280X Toxic edition is faster than any GTX-770 it's just overclocked R9-280X and also overpriced, for the processor get the latest processor, i5-3470 not bad at all but for almost the same price why not to get 4570 or 4670? and also it's a bit difficult getting mobo for previous gen processors!
