get the 280x as it performs a bit better than the 280 .. it will have a high frame rate in demanding games

Is your signature your current build? You have a 760 listed. Either of those cards would only be slightly better in games over a 760, not enough to upgrade in my opinion. Where I would consider upgrading is the cpu.
If in fact those specs are correct.

Also more system Ram +4 gb.

Really? Some people are saying that's paying too much for a slight increase in performance?
Do u have any other cards in mind besides GTX?

a r9 285 generally cost about $250 in some stores cheaper but never generally higher..remember to choose the correct answer for the question
