Whose better ...? (R9 280x toxic vs Gtx 770 )

[Jerrybrown 23]

hi , well i'd like to ask u guys about a gpu comparision between these two gpus r9 280x toxic and gtx 770 ...
as for me the 280x is better in price
in the local stores
and another question ... will it's price go down in the future ?
if it will , when would that be ... ?
thx in advance

They trade with each other in performance. The 280x wins in some games the 770 wins in others.

Generally a 770 will perform *slightly* better in games, but the 280x will be a better price. At that point, it's a coin toss really. There is a 280x for 280 that I'd buy myself right now, and one 770 for 319 that I'd buy. So 40 dollars difference in price, I'd buy the 280x myself.

kay ... whos better if we added the new updates for watchdogs or in watchdogs in general ...?

 

[Swordkd]

nVidia.

The nvidia kills the amd in watch dogs because they payed ubisoft to optimize their game for nvidia and very badly for AMD
That's a b--ch move lol

Go by this simple principle; Nvidia=Cool and Quiet, and AMD=Hot and Loud, both are good cards without a doubt, but some sacrifices do have to be made with either.

If you're talking about the reference coolers, then that is true, but aftermarket coolers make a pretty big difference in sound.

You're wrong about AMD cards , they're not hot and loud , they run as hot as nvidia's cards , and they're not loud
Don't say crap and think twice about what you're gonna say , and do your reasearch .

Hi Jerrybrown 23
The GTX 770 is the slightly better performer there and has advanced Physx

Having said that the 280x is probably the cheaper of the two

GPUboss tends to favor nVidia cards from what I've seen, I wouldn't call it a reliable source outside of some specification information maybe.
