I've been looking at this card for a while and i just want an opinion from an expert to see if this is a good card to get...?

It's decent but I prefer the Sapphire Nitro.

The r9 380 4GB version is quite good. See this benchmark:

As you can see, it beats the gtx 960.

All R9-380's are basically the same. The different manufacturers all get their chips from AMD, then put their own spin on them ( better cooling, more memory, faster clock rate, smaller form factor, etc). As with anything else, some brands have a better reputation than others. Be sure that the 'extra' of the brand you are buying is actually worth the additional cost. This also applies to Nvidia based graphics cards.
