280x for performance
760 for lower power consumption/noise/heat
More specifically:
$265 - https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperCloc...zg_bs_284822_6
$230 (When amazon get stock) - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=ATVPDKIKX0DER
Will probably be getting a refund done, but I just need to know which one would work better in my system.

280x is way superiour in performance, comparable to the gtx770

Your best bet would be with the Amd card. Especially for mantle support with newer titles.

Depends on what you want,
-760 has more optimization right now with nvidia releasing drivers on the wazoo, and should run alot cooler(thus less noise)
-r9 280x should give you better performance(its a rebranded 7970) but has higher power consumption and runs hotter(noisier)
-personally i say go with the r9 280x
Dunno if you still need it @Velocity get the Asus brand or Gigabyte brand of the r9 280x.

I'm an IT guy, and since games are asking alot of memory...
Buy a GTX 760 with 4GB RAM!
I'm not an AMD fanboy or Intel fanboy, but if the prize isn't a problem go for Intel.

280x ftw

R9 280X is better, but if u want u can go for a Nvidia it's ur choice
R9 280X is far more superior than the GTX 760 in terms of performance, but if you're trying to have less heat, noise, and power consumption than the GTX 760 is the right decision.
280x for sure , don't even think about this
r9 280x I just got one
