Hello i was planning to get a EVGA GTX 750 Ti for my budget build but i saw r9 260x turbo duo powercolor running same as GTX 750 ti but at a higher temperature (it is highly my concern)
now i also saw R9 270 powercolor turbo duo performing much better than the GTX 750 ti at the same price.. so which one should i pick,

Please help me choose thanks

1.) EVGA GTX 750 Ti FTW 128BIT 2GB GDDR5 USD 170$

2.) PowerColor Turbo Duo R9 270 256BIT 2GB GDDR5 USD 170$ (the price was cut off from 193 USD)

3.) PowerColor Turbo Duo R7 260x 128BIT 2GB GDDR5, USD 116$

However, if i was to pick the R7 260x or R9 270 Will that be enough for a Seasonic S12-II 620W Bronze 80%+?

in room temp (lets say 26) running a 270 to full load (playing AAA games for one hrs for example) will not do any harm to your graphic card ... unless overclocking is involved

just remember to clean your system from dust etc periodically

well i have a phobia when a gpu temp hits 70 degrees celcius up... also i heard amd are more likely to overheat than nvidia, thats why i came up with nvidia on the list.. also summer is coming,. And our country is damn hot , i've got no concerns on Cpu temp though. its cold as f**

Well yeah ive seen the benchmarks on 270 vs 750 ti and 270 performs alot better, but im afraid it will bottleneck my current CPU , and i've also seen that 270 are much higher temp underload than the 750 ti, i saw some vid r9 270 runs at 74 degrees celcius under heavy load and the 750 ti only at 64 degrees under heavy load.. i really wanna get the r9 270 because its the same price as the EVGA FTW but with much performance.

What CPU do you currently have? As far as the temps go if you have decent ventilation on your case I wouldnt expect to see benchmark temps normally even when playing games for a while.

Yup i always clean the pc but sometimes i get shocked XD so i ask my neighbor expert in these kind of Pc stuff to do the cleaning . and yeah i don't even bother with overclocking i'm fine with stock specs as long as it performs fine and the money i paid for it is sure worth it..

Anyways,, will a Powercolor TurboDuo r9 270 fit in my Asus H81M-D ?
Im also afraid if it will bottleneck the G3250, if it will. ill get a better CPU right away.
