Hi guys,
I am looking for a graphics card around the 250$ range and i shortlisted these 2
1. Gigabyte R9 280X GDDR5-3GB DVI-I/HDMI/2xMini DP OC Graphics Card
2. ASUS Radeon R9 380X STRIX-R9380X-OC4G-GAMING Video Card
The first one was selected by me because it belongs to the popular r9 280x series of cards and is both affordable and from a reputed brand.
The second one was recommended by an advisor from Newegg who has some experience in the gaming business.
I am using a 650 watt Gold rated PSU and a 1080p monitor. I have a HAF 912 mid tower case.
UPDATE : **********************************
Other system info
1. CPU - i5 4690k
2. RAM - 8gb DDR3 1600
3. HDD - 1 TB
4. mobo - Asus Z97-a/USB 3.1
5. SSD - 250 gb
6. Cooler - Cooler master hyper 212 evo
END OF UPDATE *************************************************
Which of these two would be a better fit for me. This is supposed to be a reasonably long term investment from my side.
Cheers,
Utsab
