Everything looks good and i would go with R9 280X or with R9 280 (non x),the difference is really small between them,but between r9 280 (x and non x) and gtx 760 there is big difference.

Thank you for your're reply. it mean, r9 280 is much better than gtx 760? :) also r9 280 (not r9 280x) will be support latest games in ultra settings ?

Yes,R9 280 is much better than gtx 760, R9 280 is compared with GTX 770 and wins in most of the games,it has been even compared with GTX 780. And if you get R9 280 you are safe for approximately 2 years,mostly depends on how much do graphics improve,so i cant promise you how long you will be safe but you will be able to play almost every game on ultra except games like Crysis 3. And when you wont be just put another one in,by then they will be a lot cheaper :D
