Gigabyte vs saphire nitro radeon r9 380 4gb

[julianlopez_85]

Hi guys i was particularly looking at this card since it currently fits my budget and also i game occasionally. I also still game on a 1680x1050 resolution so i'm guessing it would be a good fit. Wanted to know your thoughts and also experiences if you had any of these cards. I like the gigabyte model since it lights up but supposedly the nitro series perform ever so slightly better. I didn't consider the 4gb versions of the gtx 960 since they are about $70 to $80 aud more. Thanks.

I have always preferred Sapphire when buying AMD cards. I'm sure the Gigabyte card is good before if the cards are priced relatively the same I would pick the Sapphire version.

Yeah the sapphire seems to be the better pick. The difference in the cards is just $10 aud. The MSI twin frozr version is $50 aud more. DO you think it's worth waiting for black friday and pick one up online then?
