XFX vs Sapphire Vapor-X R9 280X

CryingLegend · Mar 31, 2015

I am buying a gpu and this is my choices. Which one is the best?

Go with the sapphire one unless the XFX one is significantly cheaper (>$50)

If it's the dual fan Vapor-X then they can be very loud, I'd go for the XFX card or preferably another manufacturer's cooler.

Its a three fan cooler (vapor-x)

CryingLegend :

That's a good one, if it's not much more than the XFX unit then go for it.

XFX has been cheaping out on the last 2 generations, go for Sapphire.

CryingLegend :

As far as engine is concerned, they both use the same Tahiti GPU.

If Ford and Chevy made a car with the same engine and same specs, which would you prefer?

What really matters to me in purchases is
-Warranty - longer the better
-Quality - Read reviews in the product listing and Google outsider reviews.
-Price - if one is more expensive, is the warranty better?
-Support - can i get a hold of them for the warranty?

Sometimes, customers call us pretending to have an issue with their card, then admit they haven't purchased yet but wanted to see how we react when someone is in need of warranty support, as opposed to being a potential buyer.

Hope this helps.
