Hello,

I'm buying a new pc for gaming, and I'm not sure which of these 2 to choose. If I get the dwd-rw out, the price will be pretty much the same.

P.S. My monitor has a max res.of 1440x900, and I don't want to change it, at least a few more years.
 
Have you considdered the R7 265 or the R9 270 in you're budget?

The R9 270 is probably one of the best value cards about at the moment- it's exactly the same GPU as in the 270X just clocked a little slower (and with a touch of over clocking can be just as fast or faster for free).

The R7 265 is a re brand of the old 7850 and is also very good value. Imo the 270X isn't worth the extra money over these 2.
