Not sure which 7970 to get

I'm upgrading a few of my computer's components in a couple of months time, and am unsure of what graphics card to get. I was planning on a Powercolor 7050 PCS+ because it is cheap - £175 - but it's now out of stock on the website it's cheap on. So, I'm thinking of stretching my budget to accommodate 7970s as well, since the difference between the cheapest 7970 and the now-cheapest 7950 [that I can find] is very small.

I'm currently looking at the Sapphire 7970 OC with Boost, as it is £230. For £15 more there's the XFX 7970 DD Edition. I can't afford the more expensive cards, unless I find them elsewhere for cheaper, but I'm not sure which to buy.

Which one should I buy? Or if there are other cards you think are better for around the same price, it'd be great to hear.

Just remembered the R9 280X comes out soon. Dunno if that'll be a better purchase.
