Hey Guys, I'm ready to purchase a r9 280x. I just can't decide between the XFX Black Edition or the Sapphire Toxic.
Any help is appreciated!
-Thanks,
Rundle

Yeah.. 50$. Going with the cheapest one is the obvious choice here. I'm guessing it's XFX? :D

btw here is a review for the card. http://www.hardocp.com/article/2014/02/16/xfx_double_dissipation_r9_280x_video_card_review/9#.U549yvmSwpc

Temperares looks great.

Mostly depends on price. You'll barely see a performance difference between the cards. What matters is temperature, noise and especially price.

I'm pretty sure Sapphire has good reputatioon in the gpu brand. XFX is good too. Take the one that's cheaper. But if the price difference is very very small. I'd go for Sapphire.

Thanks for the fast reply!
I live in Canada, so the price difference is $50. Truly I'd rather not spend it If I don't have to. I've heard awesome things about both companies, and terrible things about both. I have friends telling me to get XFX and others telling me to get Sapphire.
-Thanks
