I am planning to get this for gaming but i am not the hard-core players as ive been played with laptop, so i dont really care about ultra setting with 1920x1080 for all the future games, i might be enjoying with high options as well. but would be nice to play ultra with the game that already comes in public at the moment.
The game i will play is.
BF series (4 included)
COD series (Advanced Warfare for the future)
Watch Dogs
Sleeping Dogs
GTA series (5 for the future)
Max Payne 3
so on..
As they say Physx is good but i havent played with it so.. R9 290 would be absolutely fine and cant get Vapor x in new zealand and 290x doesnt look worth it.
My question is.. the games i show you above, would it be worth it for paying extra almost $400 to get option 2? or would i just stick with option 1 ?
ow, and im not planning to do overclocking for my CPU if i go option 2, but could do it in future
