R9 280X: HIS vs XFX vs Gigabyte

Solution
Go for the HIS model without any doubt. It has got the best cooler with 2 8 mm and 3, 6 mm heat pipes. Very large heatsink, better quality materials used in the pcb itself, dual 89 mm super silent fans. I myself own the card and running like a beast. It has also got plenty of space for overclocking. I never got a temp over 70 degrees even with overclocking. Fan speed are just at 60%
