R9 280x is the rebrand hd7970 ghz edition , is consider a very fast card same performance as gtx770

280x is a rebrand of 7970 ghz edition. Its the fastest card that one can noticed the raw power between r9 280 and 280x. Its quite a bump actually.

But at this time i dont think you wanna look at 280x. Its not good pricing at a $4xx mark.

You could buy even a better card for around this price. And its 970. But of cause lesser known brands.

Most ppl will only buy 280x used cus is good and cheap , price abt $240-250
