R9 280x Gaming OC 3gb or GTX 960 Windforce 4GB?

[Itachi_1]

I'm not sure which one to buy (the difference between prices doesn't matter). Can anyone help me?

This comparison gives the performance edge to the R9-280X: http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-960-vs-AMD-R9-280X/3165vs2192
The only problem is wattage. The GTX 960 is generally a 120W card, while the R9-280X is 250W: http://www.hwcompare.com/18417/geforce-gtx-960-vs-radeon-r9-280x/

If you are upgrading an older pc the GTX is going to put less strain on your existing power supply
