Sorry, forgot to put the link in for the R9-380s: http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dcomputers&field-keywords=r9-380

"Don't be quick to write off the 128-bit memory bus width just yet as NVIDIA is backing it with a new lossless texture compression technology that reduces memory bandwidth usage, effectively making it a wider memory bus than it physically is. The performance figures put out by the GTX 970, with its 256-bit wide memory bus outperforming the Radeon R9 290X with its 512-bit bus, give us no reason to doubt the memory chops made to the GTX 960.

I can vouch for the 970 out performing the 290X in the comparison above...

I can vouch for the 970 out performing the 290X in the comparison above, because I've had/have both.

They are both good choices.
