Power c r9 270x vs Sapphire r9 270 at the same price... Witch is better?

[Zuko12]

There is a SAPPHIRE R9 270 2G GD5 OC VER and a POWER C AXR9 270X 2GBD5-PPDHE for the exact same price and I am wondering witch is better. The 270x is the newer version but due to tha fact that they are the same price it makes me wonder why and witch is better to buy. If you could suggest which is better and why i would be very thankful.

R9 270X, definitively. It is stronger than the R9 270.

Sapphire is the best overall Brand of AMD gpus. The 270x is stronger.

The R9 270x has a higher clock speed, higher memory speed and performs quite a bit better than the standard 270. Go with the 270x if it's the same price. But just bare in mind that Powercolor isn't the best brand. I would consider spending a little more money on a R9 280 or 280x. I got the R9 270x and wished now that I got the R9 280 because it just has a bit more punch and can run most games comfortably on Ultra at 1080p at around 50-60FPS..
