Hello guys
I'm considering an upgrade from my GTX 770 3X WindForce to an Asus R9 290X. As I was looking through old benchmarks, the 290X is considerably winning, and as I continued comparing it to different cards for example the GTX 970, it went kind of toe to toe. But that's the old benchmarks, and as we all know, Nvidia tends to forget about their older cards, all they care about is money ( lol ). Not quite the case with Radeon.
Back to the point, though. I could also get a GTX 970, but the 290x seems cheaper, at least here, where I live. The gtx could go for around 400 Leva (the currency in Bulgaria). I have an offer for the Radeon card which is 240 Leva (the card is slightly modded though, the fans are from another card, but it works fine) 400 Leva ~ 218$ / 240 Leva ~ 130$. There is a huge difference in the prices of these cards, as i'm on budget.
Can someone tell me which card performs better? And which one to get, I'm not very expirienced
