There's no reason why you should buy any higher end AMD card right now even the 280X as the 780 is selling for the same price currently.

I've always went with AMD but really right now Nvidia is the way to go , you might want to wait for the 390X which rumors say it will be liquid cooled and will have good price to performance but I am not really sure whether there's anything that can beat a 970 right now in a price to performance competition.

That's easy
$349 for a MSI 970 or $400 or so for something that is 86% as fast, produces 47% more heat and power consumption, 4 times as much noise (49 vs 29 dbA), overclocks about 1/3 as much and gets less scaling when using dual cards.

What about 256 vs 512 bit why does that not seem to matter?
If I need to lift a 500 pound load, does the 2,000 pound rated do any worse of a job than the 3,000 pound rated one ?
If you using 4k Id look at AMD, otherwise it's one man's game.
