Which GPU is Better?

[N3rd_hop]

I am looking for help in deciding which GPU I will be going with once I get the funds to build myself a new Gaming / Streaming rig.

Right now I am split between these two cards (technically 3, if I down grade one)
I would like to know which is the best for performance in Gaming / Streaming / Everyday use. In addition which is the best Price/Performance ratio.

The Graphics Cards are listed below:

__PowerColor DEVIL Radeon R9 390x__

__MSI GeForce GTX 980 TI GAMING (6Gb)__

_MSI GeForce GTX 980 TI GAMING (4Gb)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127834&cm_re=msi_gtx_980_ti-_-14-127-834-_-Product


I want to Thank each and every one of you for taking the time to read my post and assist me!

The GTX980ti is easily the best of the 3

Obviously the GTX 980ti , however i recommend you get the Gigabyte G1 gaming GTX 980ti as it performs better in my opinion. I have the Gigabyte GTX 980ti, and my idle temps are 27-30 degrees celsius and while gaming an average of 35- 50 degrees celsius. i play league of legends (max settings), black ops 2 ( max settings) , CS go (max settings).

Well the DEVIL is water cooled which will help keep the card cool, i will only have 2 intake fans for my computer case. and will the GTX 980TI 4Gb out perform the 390x with 8Gb.

The video card isn't just in gaming, but i will also be streaming, so i need something that can handle the load. Also which is better Price to Performance?

Yes the 980ti is a lot better than the 390x

I dont think you have noticed but the 4GB GPU ur looking at isnt a GTX 980ti, it is a GTX 980, id prefer going with the GTX 980 if you are going against r9, and u should have an exhaust at the back near ur gpu because while gaming and streaming the gpu can get quiet warm

The 390x is almost like the 290x it really isnt a BIG upgrade, The gtx 980 is a really good idea, i was planning to go with that until i found out that the gtx 980ti had released.

Oh, wow. I didn't notice that, thank you! lol.
And of course ill have the normal 1 exhaust fan in the back of the case.

well i guess its the 980 TI then =)

I know the 980 (Non-TI) gets bet out by the DEVIL card, as its over clocked and all that jazz. Just haven't found any reviews comparing the DEVIL and the 980Ti.

Thank you for your help.

No problem. Also GTX 980 is a better gpu to overclock compared to r9 390x. the R9 tends to generate more heat when overclocked.

the gigabyte windforce 980ti is exceptionally long and rules out drive cages in many cases.
