I like the 390 with 8gb.

GTX980 is the better but the 390 is a lot cheaper and will handle everything very well at 1080P resolution and some higher res.

A GTX 980 and 390 aren't even in the same price bracket why are you comparing them?

cateizkill · Nov 16, 2015

well im gaming at 1080p and the r9 390 is cheaper and had more vram but they say u could bake a cake with the heat and it's power hungry tho

390 compares to GTX970 at 1080P and both are great cards for that resolution.

But between 970 and 390 , which one is the greatest for 1080p 60+ fps ?

390, Cheaper by a couple bucks, 8gb VRAM to the 970's 3.5. Performs better

cateizkill :

@ 1080P the GTX970 has the edge http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Powercolor/R9_390_PCS_Plus/30.html the extra Vram on the 390 does not kick in until higher resolutions like 1440P and up.

well uhh i think imma choose the r9 tho cuz it's cheaper and i probably gonna purchase 1440p in the near future after i built my rig tho so yeah but thanks for the oppinion

cateizkill :

You are making the right choice for 1440P!
