Which one is better? for a 60 dollar price difference?

I'm trying to go for price for performance here :X
I'm going to be using it with a fx-8320.
Suggest other cards only if they are better cards for around 200 on NCIX

I would definitely go with the R9 280 if you have the money, but I have 2 MSI R9 270x's in Crossfire and they perform amazingly (better than a 780ti). It depends on your budget. You could also go with the XFX or Sapphire card, because they are great, too. It also has more VRAM, which is perfect for games like Watch Dogs.
