Which video card would be better for an all purpose family system (mid-level gaming, video streaming, etc...):

CLUB3D Radeon R9 280X or ASUS GeForce GTX 760?

The CLUB3D is $249 and the ASUS is $229 (with MIR). Though I know I cannot future proof the system, I would like the GPU to last as long as possible. Also, would it be worth $80 to upgrade to a GTX 770?

THANKS!!!!

The R9 280 (non-X) is actually faster than the GTX 760 and cheaper as well (and quite a bit cheaper than an R9 280X).
