Hi, I am not sure if I have made the right choice of GPU.
Key components.
I5 4460
XFX PRO Series 650W psu
ASUS H81M-C
R9 390.
I originally ordered a GTX 970 but changed it but I have until 10 am UK time to change my mind again. Any views on which is better from a gaming performance perspective? Also would I get any noticeable benefit from a I5 4590? There is a £26 price increase over the I5 4460.
Thanks
 
If you want bang-for-the-buck parts, i would say that get which ever is cheaper, though the 390 would have a pretty decent boost in performance if you are using windows 10, but they are both really great graphics cards.

You should probably be fine with the 4460, considering the 4590 is only slightly~ better and you can still upgrade to that or something better in that same socket if you want in the future.
