The GTX 770 is slightly faster than the 280x, but only in certain games. From benchmarks, it looks like the 770 scales at high resolutions better than the 280x. It also looks like the 770 supports AA better. If it matters, the GTX 770 consumes about 10-20 less watts than the R9 280x. I can't find any temperature benchmarks for the 770/280x DirectCUII. Even though it performs slightly worse, I would buy the 280x because it has better price/performance.

EDIT: It's really hard to find these two compared together in the same benchmark. One website has the Asus 280x at 73C under load, and the reference GTX 770 at 80C. Based off of that, I would assume the Asus...

They are both about the same. They will run most games on very high/ultra 1080p around 50-60 fps. Although, the GTX 770's overall performance will beat the 280x by a bit.

The answer is really straightforward, the top 2 770's are massively outselling the 280's atm according to partpicker. Look at all the charts and figures u want the demand rarely lies!
