Hi guys,


Im getting a pc soon and i got my eyes on the sapphire r9 280x.

However, there are the dual-x, toxic, and vapor-x

What's the difference between the 3. and which should i get. Im leaning towards the dual-x since it's the cheapest.

The Toxic will net you a few extra FPS due to the higher factory overclock, but the Vapor X might run a tiny bit quieter (not much).

If you're set on the Toxic, then you won't be disappointed if performance is your only concern, the Vapor X won't be significantly slower.

It is cheaper because... it is a stock card which is not factory overclocked .. The + of the dual-x is the cooling.. the dual-x represents the 2 huge fans in the card
