I'm comparing 3 different brand:

1.Sapphire DualX R9 270 http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?pid=2037
2.MSi R9 270 Gaming http://www.msi.com/product/vga/R9_270_GAMING_2G.html#hero-overview
3.Asus R9 270 DIRECT CU II OC http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/R9270DC2OC2GD5

which brand is better in controlling gpu heat??
and another question, is it ATI GPU work better with AMD than Intel Proc?? I choose Intel only because it consume less power than AMD, is it worth it?

BTW this is my rig specs and i'm running at stock:
Proc: Intel i5 4690
Mobo: Asrock Z97 Killer
RAM: Kingston Fury 8gb(2x4) PC1600
PSU: Zalman ZM600-GT
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 1tb
 
Solution
Both AMD and Nvidia GPUs usually work better with Intel CPUs.

Sapphire, MSI and Asus are all generally good brands. I have a nearly five years old Sapphire HD5770 and it still works like new.
