Buy the R9 Fury nitro for 300 or wait for RX 480 Aftermarket coolers?

So yeah, title pretty much asks what I wanted to. I'm not really sure. Which is better? Is the Fury worth 30 dollars more 😛? I game at 1080p, but plan on upgrading during the winter to 1440p. Case is the s340 and psu is 750w.

Greetings!

I would go with the 480...it may give you better performance down the road and will likely be better for VR if you decide to go that route...plus the 480 has better specs as far as HDMI 2.0 (compared to 1.4 on the Fury) and available 8GB of VRAM as opposed to the 4GB available on the Fury.

Hope this helps!

Right now the RX480 is overpriced because they have pretty much sold out.
When the aftermarket cards arrive expect them to be around $250.
