Those are very close in performance and should play all games on the same settings, for power efficiency I would go with the GTX960 on this one.

False, sounds like you didnt read any reviews from the cards. The 380 beats the 960 by an average of 15 to 20% (some titles more, and on 1440 p tha gap can get to even 35%) AND it uses the same power!!! the GTX 960 system is using like 4 W lets...a joke.
Between these 2 cards, there is a no brainer decision imo.

as of power efficiency they both consume the same power: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTpNZEW31G0

and the r9 380 is faster overall so its better.

I see 10% difference at 1080P http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-radeon-r9-390x-r9-380-r7-370,4178-6.html and higher power difference under gaming http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-radeon-r9-390x-r9-380-r7-370,4178-9.html
On the higher resolutions my comment is simple neither card is sufficient for gaming!
Forgot to add the GTX960 is as well $20 cheaper after MIR!
