Was about to pick up a Asus 280x but discovered that its plagued with artifacting problems.

My current setup is:
AMD FX-8320
Asus M5A97 R 2.0 MB
8Gbs of ram
600w PSU

Not looking to spend much more than $300 and don't really know what to go with / have any preferences as long as it runs well.

This would be the best option then and the Gtx 770 is a bit better then the R9 280x anyway.
