hi everyone, is the Sapphire Dual-X R9 280 3GB OC still good at 1080p with ultra and high settings to use in today's modern games?

because i'm about to buy a Sapphire Dual-X R9 280 3GB OC but I noticed it had a lot of bad ratings.

so, is a good card or bad card?

thanks for your time and attention to my question\any help and advice is appreciated.



any help and advice is appreciated.

I run a Sapphire R9 280x Tri-x and can run B4 at mostly ultra settings (I turn off Anti-Aliasing as it has too much of a negative impact on FPS for what is gives you in smooth lines.)

The AMD R9 280 cards are all ok, but remember you are really buying a last generation card, which are just a minor bump in clock speeds from the original 7950 and 7970 cards brought out by AMD. If I were you, I'd save some more money and look at either the Nvidia GTX960 or AMD R9 380 or 380x cards.
