Need advice. Which GPU is better?

[bobtran12]

Hey guys. I'm not an expert on these things.

Which video card(s) is better?
AMD Radeon R9 280 3GB Video Card (Dual Card) (CrossFireX)
or
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 4GB?

280 crossfired would be better.

Get GTX 970 it draws less poower . GTX 970- 145W but R9 280 CF - 450-500W Also one card is better .

Aha, the 280 running in CFX in Uber mode will destroy the 970, but the 970 is better in single gpu performence

^That is also true, I assumed you already had a 280, but if you don't, grab a 970. Doesn't perform as well as dual 280s but its also a hundred bucks cheaper and you can upgrade to dual 970s in the future.
