Hello there.
I found two cards and I don't know which one to buy?

1. Sapphire Radeon R7 265 2GB - 165$ (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202096&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=)

2. PowerColor Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition 2GB Video Card - 139$ after MIR (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131563&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=)

Which one is better?
It will be running with my FX 6300 and LC Power 600W (12v1+12v2=40A) (20+4 pin, 4+4, 6 pin, 6+2 pin, 6 x sata, 3 x molex )
Thanks!

I would get the HD 7870 GHZ, the rebates make it a very good deal, comes with free shipping and has considerably more stream processors.

For the same price, the second choice is the most convincing!

Ok thanks. Just one more question, how long is this card ? And how much power it uses on full load.
Can my LC Power 600W power this GPU?
The PSU has all connectors that are needed 2x6 pin ( one of 6 pins is 6+2)
here is the picture of the side of PSU:

And yes i will be using FX 6300 with it.
