Hey,
My budget is around $230 and I have to decide between these 2 cards. I know the 280x is faster than 960 and I should be getting that, but there's a problem. My power supply is only 460W, which means that if I get the 280x, I will also need to get a new power supply, which will cost at least $50. Currently, the 960 is at $200 and the 280x is at $230 on amazon. (I can't buy from newegg).
Also, should I consider the 4 GB version of 960 which is also at $230? I know it's not that useful since 960 is a 1080p card, but some games these days like GTA V, Shadow of Mordor and Far Cry 4 can use more than 2 GB at 1080p for the higher quality textures (which have almost no hit on fps, just on vram usage). Any advice?
