hello i am plalling to buy R9 285 can you tell me which manufacterer is best for this card? i checked on newegg and got confused. there is msi, xfx, saphire and much more so which one is best to get?
 
Solution
MSI, XFX, and Sapphire are all good. I would suggest going with the 280 or 280x over a 285 because the extra gb of vram, 2gb is falling behind fast with newer games.

The 280 trades blows with the 285 depending on the game http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1332?vs=1333

The 280x pulls ahead of the 285 http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1041?vs=1333

Some suggestions,
