Hello!

I am building an extremely low budget pc featuring 8GB of DDR3 and an i5 3570. I would like a gpu under around 200 pounds for the build.

I have narrowed it down to...
R9 Fury (non X) = 160
RX 580 8GB = 170
GTX 980 = 180
R9 Fury X = 230

I was wondering which of those would be the best for gaming. I have a 40 inch 1080p TV that I play on which I upscale to 4k on most games.

I was also wondering how much of an improvement these cards would be over an R9 290.

Thank you

The best price/performance card of that group is the RX 580. Its faster than an R9 290 and GTX 980, and far more power efficient than the Fury or Fury X. The Fury X is a little bit faster, but not worth the additional cost. Get the RX 580.
