Video card choice

[Matt Rutledge]

First time builder here. Question on what video card to buy. I have found a few GTX 760's retailing for around $250 (Canada), and a couple R9 280X's for $310-325 (after rebates). I am just wondering if it is worth the extra $70 to upgrade to the 280x?
Thanks!

if u have the money its always worth to get the best ,but u wont see more than 5-8 fps increase and bad optimization in new released games due to nvidia's shitwork !

Interestingly low Crysis 3 score for the 280x If you can find a 770 on sale i would go that direction unless you have a AMD cpu and want to play mantle games like BF4 then the 280x.

Get those free games with AMD.
