Hello everyone. I am building a new PC for a friend. I was wondering why is the XFX R9 290x 200 dollars cheaper than the Asus one? I never really understood what the brand means on cards. Don't they all perform the same? The local PC store only sells XFX or Asus AMD cards. They are both r9 290x's, but the prices are 200 dollars in difference. Why is this? Safe links to both cards.

Thank you! I look forward to your replies.

ASUS is better than XFX when it comes to graphics cards.
Sapphire however,is the best for AMD cards.
Between the ASUS and the XFX,I would go with the ASUS.
It has better cooling and stock speeds.

Can I ask what are your other system specs?There may be some components I can change so you have a bit more money for your GPU.

Thanks pierrerock for that link. I may order the Saphire one then. XFX has lifetime warranty and if anything happens to the card the store is well known for replacing products on the spot. If I get the saphire card I will have to wait for months if something happened to it to send it away for warranty.
