My preference, based on personal experience, would be for the Sapphire. I believe that they, generally, make better products than MSI. Just my opinion.

I have used many Sapphire products over the years and I have been very happy with them. I can't say the same for MSI products.

Good luck, both are good choices.

Sapphire is like the EVGA of AMD. It only makes GPUs for AMD. They are definitely a reputable company which makes decent GPUs.

The main difference between all GPUs is the cooling system on it. Some are quieter, while some can keep the card quieter. But you'll have to dig a little deeper to find reviews for heat and noise. Some companies overclock their card, but it's no different from you doing the same for free with overclocking software such as MSI Afterburner. Note that MSI Afterburner works with Non-MSI cards too.

There shouldn't be anything wrong with Sapphire's cards. But if you're looking for a cheaper alternative, look out for the R9 270. It's basically a non-OC-ed R9 270x. the difference between both is clock speeds. Like I said, you can always overclcok it for free by yourself.

The brands that I wouldn't really buy from is
- Zotac
- Powercolor
- VisionTek
- HIS

Don't buy cards with reference coolers too. They're pretty noisy.


Here's a R9 270
