MSI R9 380 2GB, What is the diference between OC armor and the gaming version ?

 

[faalin]

difference between the two

armor core clock 980mhz gaming 1000mhz

armor video ports 1 HDMI, 1 DP, 2 DL-DVI-I gaming 1 DP, 1 DL-DVI-I, 1 DL-DVI-D

Cooler on the gaming card is slightly better then the armor.

Unless you need the HDMI port i would go with the gamer card. Slightly better base core speed and better cooler.

Both have hdmi port from the official site specs http://www.msi.com/product/graphics-card/#?category=AMD-R9%20380

It costs just 20 euros more the gaming version, but for me is already a significant up in cost, would u still maintain the gaming sugestion taking that into account ?

well you can make up the difference on the core clock by overclocking the armor to match the gaming card. but you cant do anything to match the air cooler. the gamer will be quiter but if you dont care about noise then go with the armor and do a slight overclock to match the gamer.
