    Hello all, I have a small question.
    Which card would you suggest me, Sapphire Radeon R9 280 Dual-X OC or Sapphire R9 380 Nitro Dual-X OC 4GB?
    Both of these cards seem great and 380 is tiny bit expensive ( 30 euros ), so is it worth it?
    My cpu is Fx 8320, if that helps..

    I will be gaming most of the time.
    Thanks

    I havent seen reviews yet, but alot of techsites/youtubers are claiming that there up-coming reviews of the R9 390 show it to be the new sweet spot in the price vs performance spot.

    The new R9 380 is basically the 280 with a +4 FPS increase, but better longevity in terms of drivers (15.15 atm) and added support for Virtual Reality and Displays.
