The gtx 960 is having tons of issues as of what I know . Basically with ram and other stuff . The r9 380 is dx 12 ready and will smack that 960. Now you have two options . It's now narrowed down to the r9 380. So once again you have two options , the windforce or the strix . Now I recommend to get at least 4 of ram . It's best for 1080 ultra settings and textures . It comes in handy ! I like both its just what you prefer . The asus strix is amazing though. The fans don't even move when the card is below 40c! And it hits 69c in load ! But gigabyte has good stuff

I don't know if I would be able to spend like 40-50 euros more if you compare that r9 380 to the gtx 950, so I was wondering if its really worth it. Should I consider the r7 370 too as it has 4gb of memory?

Sapphire Radeon R7 370 4GB Nitro (11240-04-20G) - 178 euro
Gigabyte Radeon R7 370 4GB (GV-R737WF2OC-4GD) - 188 euro
MSI Radeon R7 370 4G Gaming (R7 370 GAMING 4G) - 193 euro
XFX Radeon R7 370 4GB (R7-370P-4DF5) - 202 euro

Also, the R9 380 Strix costs 246 euro, I don't think I'm buying it.
Asus Radeon R7 370 4GB Strix (90YV0850-M0NA00) - 204 euro

I think the 380 tends to just win in benchmarks, so would be my choice. It is the more powerful I think. The 960 is very good and uses less power. The 370 won't be powerful enough to actually use 4gb but it can't hurt. Of those the MSI is probably the best I think has slightly higher factory clocks.

So to get things straight, the GTX 950 is out of the equation? I agree that the 380 is better benchmark-wise but I can't afford it atm, should I wait a bit and buy it? or buy another cheaper gpu now?
