if u are gaming more than 1080p sapphire r9 270x 4gb will be better ... i would go with vapor x and save some pesos as r9 270x toxic and vapor x are similar .. use that 500 pesos on ur gf , buy her something and she wont trouble u much while playing game .. hahhaa :p

okay thanks, anyway, i saw sapphire r9 280 dual x 3gb 384 bit priced at 10,800 pesos (same price as r9 270x toxic)

which would be better? FYI i dont OC, so is r9 280 3gb 384 bit better than 270x toxic?

what i hate about the 280 is the blue pcb..

performance aspect ... r9 280 would be a great choice regardless of the blue pcb .. out performs r9 270x in every aspect ... and for ur resolution at 1080p , it will be better to consider r9 280 as u are getting it at same price .
