Hi all,
I'm looking to get a new graphics card, but I can't decide between the R9 290x and the 780 ti, both with the DirectCU II cooler from Asus. I will be using a Benq XL2420T 144Hz monitor at 1080p. Also, the prices of the AMD cards isn't completely bonkers as I live in Germany ;)
The R9 290x would cost me 515 Euro and the 780 ti 600 Euro.
Should I spend the extra 85 Euro?

780ti is the best video card there is... if you can afford it, get one :) It gets a little over 10% better performance in most games, uses less power, and runs cooler, when compared to the 290x
