Cant decide,need help

Hi guys,i need to choose between a r9 280x from gigabyte,but with an Arctic acceloero cooler for 175 euros,or a gtx 760 4gb from Gigabyte,but with warranty.The price of the 760 is 188 euros.I think that the 280x is a safe option but i would like to hear some advice from you

the 280x will out perform the 760 by a little bit. check out some benchmarks on tom's between the two.

The thing to consider would be nvidias smooth operation and day one drivers for new games.

Thats why im doubting,but ive seen that the 280x outperforms the 760 by 15 fps in the witcher 3

im using a gigabyte v2 760 on my current pc with an i7. its runs ok for me. Obviously i have to turn some things down but im ok with the ones i turn off. I never use vsync for the performance hit and im ok with occasional tearing. witch i havnt notied yet in this game. i always turn off the blur effects and the depth of field stuff and other post processing effects that dot really change it visually. Mine runs the game quite well for me.

But I'd suppose im pretty easy to please lol
