If you think PCIe 5.0 runs hot, wait till you see PCIe 6.0's new thermal throttling technique

What GPU should I buy out of these two?

EVGA GeForce GTX 780: ($15 more)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/271635979873?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Sapphire Radeon R9 280X:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Sapphire-Radeon-R9-280X-3GB-GDDR5-Dual-X-OC-Version-Graphic-Card-/261553747716?pt=PCC_Video_TV_Cards&hash=item3ce5d17704

What one is better for:

1) Gaming on two 1080p monitors
2) On Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
3) Higher specs than the other one
4) Better cooling and quieter

Thank you!

It's a 780 not 770. The 780 and 290 are pretty close competitors. But I recommend the 290 for it has more VRAM.

GTX 780. No doubt. The r9 280X is somewhat equal to the 770. The 780 is way more faster than the any of them.
