choosing the right GPU

[fopel]

i want to buy a new gaming pc and i am considering the R9 270X 4gb
i wonder if i should get insted the gtx 770 4gb
but beacose it costs double i think it would be more wise to
invest the money in a seconed R9 270X 4gb.
wich will be a better choise for 1080p gameplay?

If gtx 770 costs twice as much as 270x, then I would crossfire. At 1080p, crossfire 270x beats gtx 770.

List complete specs, include PSU brand/model.

I would skip the 4gb models for the cards you are considering, the extra $$ would be better spend in getting a tier up gpu.

Don't get 4GB models unless you plan on SLI/Crossfire in the future. And instead of a gtx 770 get a R9 280X it has more price/performance.

Crossfire means bigger and expensive PSU, and a motherboard that can properly support it. Plus, more heat and noise.
Not worth it. Go for the 770, or a 280X. C:
