Hi all

Im I making a bad decision buying the R9 290X Lightning? It does not have temp problems like alot of the other 290X -es do

I can get the MSI R9 290X Lightning for 298Eur used with almost 2 years warranty on it
I can get the sapphire R9 390 NITRO brand new for 320-330Eur only have 2 years warranty as well
Which one would be a better choice I checked DX12 benchmarks and it looks like the R9 290X is doing really good so it should be a good card for a while
Please note I play on 1920x1080 res

Is it matter that the R9 390 is A DX12 full support is the R9 290X will fully support DX12 as well?

Starwars Battlefield will run fine on both cards
I feel that 300Eur is already alot for a card. Im from Hungary where 300Eur is alot of money not like in the US- Canada 1 week paycheck and you can buy the best card available. I know because I lived in Canada for 12 years I made 1k/week now i make 1k/month big difference.
I can not order from Newegg and other websites cause taxes are alot so that is a no go.

Thank You
