A little help choosing a right GPU for my system.

[varun mst]

Hi , i am seeing a amd r9 series gpu
But i am confused to choose weather a Saphire r9 270x or a Asus r9 270x
The asus one is little expensive here , are they both equal

BTW my system is
amd fx 6300
g skill 4 gb ram
corsair 850 w PSU
M5A97 EVO R2.0

I would choose Asus however sapphire is not bad too.

In my opinion the Asus is higher quality and worth the extra money...

I think the Sapphire is better than the Asus.

Imagine it as 2 cars; the same size, with the same engine but different manufacturers. There may be minor differences in performance, cooling, noise and warranty/reliability. If any of these factors particularly matter to you, then you should investigate the specifics closer.

Performance = very close.

Temperature = Asus runs cooler.

Noise = almost identical, with the Asus being slightly better.

So all things considered, both are good, but the Asus is just a bit better than the Sapphire card.

Asus is the expensive one there.
