$150

Lose $230 if I upgrade. Only reason why I can only consider Lightning is because Gaming card boh backplate & LED lighting

LED bo. But got backplate. Only 290 and above will have backplate.

But at $380 I would say is not a good deal. Even if it is at $350 is not a good deal also.

Cause a new Sapphire r9 280X is gonna cost around just $420. Just don't justify the lightning card.

That new sapphire would also have shorter warranty than the used lightning leh. One thing holding me back from 290 is the noise...and price.

Noise? Msi gaming one not noisy. If you want even quieter it will be either the triX or the powercolor pcs. This 2 works slightly more quieter due to the heatsink design and better heat dissipation.

Yeah, I see PCS damn thick should be quieter/cooler. One thing, Sapphire still 2 years warranty for same prices (meh). Second, after yesterday, pretty much safe to say I won't be relying on BL/Evertech products :o
