this is my build currently : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/mrmyxc/saved/h6mNnQ
if you're lazy (lol)
CPU: AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8-Core £99.54
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P ATX AM3+ £64.18
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport XT 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 £57.99
Case: Corsair SPEC-01 RED ATX Mid Tower £36.35
Power Supply: Corsair 600W ATX12V (CX600M)

so I want to make sure I'm getting the right performance for the price and there hasn't been too many comparisons or benchmark for the 280 + the reason why I'm trying to choose between these two and not any other is because I don't think there other cards I can get that's better than these two for their prices , I might be able to keep off buying now till prices come down but I'm impatient (lol) and you can't always predict the future :) 

so GPU choices:

so yeah which one do you guys recommend I get.

also if you have any recommendations regarding the build please do tell (keep it within ~£500 + gpu though xD)



Oh also my native resolution is 1600*1200 if that helps...atleast on VGA that's what it says but on hdmi it shows 1080p and all the other flavours VGA cant do, then again the HDMI looks crappy (colours, sharpness etc even after messing with CCC so yeah)
