AMD Radeon R9 380x vs R9 380 vs R9 280X

[MinionLover24]

I'm building my first computer and I'm stuck on the graphics card...trying to keep this about the $200 range. I decided to go with an AMD graphics card because they seem to perform better than the Nvidia cards for this price. The high power consumption doesn't matter because I've got a 700W gold+ PSU. So far I've kinda gotten down to either a r9 380/380x or a r9 280x. I see that the 280x is older...so its not gonna support directx 12 and maybe some other stuff but it does have a bit better performance and the xfx one has a lifetime warranty. Both the 380 and 280x hover about the $200 mark or less (all the way to $170) and the 380x is at either the $200 or $220. Would it be worth it to go with a 380x over the 380 or should i go with the 280x over either? Or would it be worth it to go for an r9 390??? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Best way in my opinion is to go with 390 if you have budget. 280X is a good card but because of dx 12 support I wouldn't go with it. On the other side 380 is a good card too from my personal experience and 380X is slightly better judging by benchmarks. So obvious choice is 390 or 380X. If you have budget go with 390 if not then 380x.

Best luck!

Is it really worth it to jump up to the 390 over the 380x? Do you think it would be future proof enough because I was trying to keep this build for a while

The 390 is significantly better than the 380X.

With 390s available under the $300 mark now, i'd say go for it if you have the money:

if you don't, get the 380X on sale for $200

Would you say it is really worth it for the extra $100?

380X is overpriced. 390 and 380 are priced well.

Probably yes. 390 is pretty powerful and more future proof than any of 380s.

Best luck!
