Greetings!
I was looking to buy new GPU but my budget is not very big.
Tho it is big enough to consider buying R9 280x.
But what confuses me is that I don't know what are the differences between some versions of it.
Like there are:
- PowerColor;
- Dual x;
- Vapor Trixx.
And probably some more but I haven't found them.
So my question is. Is there a big difference between them and is it worth to give some more money for the Vapor Trixx or will PowerColor do just fine?
Also is it better if the GPU is overclocked or not?
I know that if they're OC that they give better results. But is their working period shortened by it, does it make GPU use more power, does it heat more? Is all of that damaging the GPU or motherboard or anything else?
Thanks in advance.
