AMD vs GTX ? ( + would it be enough ? )

[MrChristmas]

AMD Radeon R9 280X vs GTX 770 , what's would you choose, and why ?



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you guys think that for 1440x900 monitor 60Hz would gtx 770 2Gb be enough ? ( for games )

I would go for the GTX cause i like Nvidia but you can check and the benchmarks...770 seems quite better

The GTX 770 is a better value than the R9 280X, unless you are planning to perform a bunch of compute heavy tasks on your GPU more than game.

Since price varies regionally, you cannot say flat out that one is a better value.

Since it is plenty for 1440x900, I would just pick whichever is cheaper

I agree with Smeezekitty. Both are great GPUs that perform relatively the same. I have a gtx 770 lightning paired up with an Intel Xeon 1230V3 @ 3.7 GHz and I can play battlefield 4 at 80 fps and never dipping below 60 fps even on a 64 player server. That's at 1080p by the way. Hope this helped!

gtx 770 is better

Wouldn't really go by what GPU boss says. More as a reference cause they don't provide you with actual benchmarks. The 280x and gtx 770 perform at the same level give or take a few fps, the deciding factor of which one does better really depends on the game you are playing.
