    Save yourself some money and get an R9 290. Basically the same but much cheaper. They do use a ton of power and get extremely hot!
    Best bang for buck card there is!

    Thanks ~€100 cheaper? So what does the "X" bring to the equation? Also never had AMD Card before will it be a good choice instead of the Nvidia route?

    X means its pre overclocked.
    save the money and do it yourself.


    Amd very solid. Just be sure your psu is up to it and it will run hotter than hell so hope you have good airflow
