Hey guys!

So My upgrades began last week and the new goodies are running very nice.

I'm very happy with 1080p gaming and I'm set on getting a Radeon R9 270X but would just like some input into which brand. The furthest i can strecth my budget is R3,200 not a penny more!

I'm kinda won over with the Gigabyte Windforce 3x but would just like some more opinions.

Thanks Guys!

Powercolor are good value for money, wootware.co.za stocks those. Sapphire makes excellent cards as well

I am not a gigabyte fan myself but that is a great card with nice cooling. Cant go wrong with it, it will run really quiet as well compared to reference coolers.
 
Got a Sapphire for BF4 but haven't played much yet. Get 50-60 fps on Ultra at 1600x900.
 
So its narrowed down to either the Sapphire or the Gigabyte towards which i'm leaning...

Another Q: Is Asus cards better? Cos they generally priced a bit higher...? I've got an Asus motherboard and thinking of maybe keeping it all Asus...

Thanks for the info guys!

All pretty much the same. Get the cheapest/longest warranty you can find.
