There is so many R9 270xs out there but I not sure which one to get. I would like to keep a price range of $200 to $299.99. And I would like to buy the card anywhere but newegg (cuz of s****y shipping company they partnered with which is OnTrac)

But here's what I am considering:
Sapphire Radeon R9 270X
http://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-Version-PCI-Express-Grap...

Sapphire Radeon VAPOR-X R9 270X
http://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-VAPOR-X-PCI-Express-Grap...

Sapphire Radeon TOXIC R9 270X
http://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-Radeon-PCI-Express-Graph...

Gigabyte R9 270X WINDFORCE 3X
http://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GDDR5-2GB-2xDVI-Graphics...

&
ASUS R9270X
http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-R9270X-DC2T-2GD5-Graphics-Ca...

If you can find places with cheaper prices beside amazon that'd be great.

xfx has the best benchmarks but highest heat (but suprisingly little noise)

the asus has lower performance but lower temps and low noise.

saphire is somewhere in the middle.

take a look at the bench and cooling section of the link. make your decision from that.

my personal choice would either be the toxic or windforce (for good cooling combined with good performance) or the asus since i've had great luck with asus products and it runs cool and quiet (at a little less performance though... could always be o/c though a bit to counter that).
