So I've come to a crossroads in my decision on a graphics card. I've researched many benchmarking videos and reviews about each respective card. But I just can't decide. Generally I've seen people get better benchmarking scores on games with 770 (besides BF4). But the thing that gets me is that the R9 280x has 3GB of VRAM which will help out with multiple displays (which I will be doing) and the R9 280x is cheaper than the 770. But honestly I'm looking for the best card. Things to keep in mind are that I'll be playing loads of games, recording and streaming them, and rendering videos. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Erich.

For streaming, Nvidia's Shadowplay will do you well.

I recommend Nvidia because I bias toward them. They've always made the better quality card, and they have a very good driver. I'll take PhysX over Mantel.

They are equal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY8FZnNgxMk one time the r9 have more fps other time the nvidia but that ''more fps'' is 4fps i would go..i did go for the nvidia :D  i had option between the r9 280x and 770 and ppl told me the 770 is better cause 80% of the games are supported from nvidia which may give a fps boost like in watch dogs but the 280x is 150$ cheaper so if you want to save some $ get the r9 if you want shadowplay(as the guy above me mentioned) maybe not sure a lil more fps and txaa get the 770
