Radeon R9 280X  vs GeForce GTX 960 

The 280x is one of the best cards in years for the money. The 960 is basically a footnote to the 970 due to it's limited memory bandwidth.

crysis 3 framerate 13.1 fps ???????????????????????????? WTF??????????

r9 280x have more potential in games.

Mine is running at 1170MHz stable... in Witcher 3 maxed out, there is like 15 FPS difference between 850MHz and 1170MHz

keep in mind the 960 can be overclocked to 1500 mhz

770 outperforms the 960

The 770 outperforms the 960.

and the 128 bit bus is too small to utilize all that VRAM, lol

Yep that is true but it is almost similar most of the power drawn from the wall is put out as heat the margin is negligible

No it's a measure of cooling dissipation and has no correlation with power draw, hence why a 390 on consumes 60W more than a 970

Yp my r9 280x run at 1ghz

> My point is comparison between differant platforms > Significantly higher clock speed 1,127 MHz vs 850 MHz Around 35% higher clock speed I was replying to a complaint about clock speeds being listed wrong. I think we are arguing the same point. Only a moron would say Nvidia was better simply because it had a higher clock speed.

Hmm some dx 12 benchmark's shows that but it is in the softwear department Nvidia will perfore well with driver updates not to mension that they were more optimized in dx11 (mantle was great though)

It may draw more power but at the end of the day there's no noticeable differance in your electracity charges but in a price to performance stand point the 280x gets the edge while delivering more power and thar 3gig memory buffer will let you increase graphic settings to a much higher values specially in texture department And Gpu boss is really Nvidia biased they could have use more real world benchmarks such as GTA V wich shows similar performance in both AMD and Nvidia cards which really falls to the tflops to fps ratio in both sides And i am not a hardcore amd guy i appreciate Nvidia and their efficiency And the point here is THE R9 280x is the WINNER

Agree but overclock dint gain me any FPS beyond 1ghz

Arm is downright made for the task

My point is comparison between differant platforms and architectures isnt that technical simply you cant run any high end pc game on an ipad or edite a 4k footage and I'm not a AMD guy I highly appreciate the efficiency of Nvidia . with the r9 nano is seems to be AMD also catching up i personaly uses a r9 280x vapor x tri x wich served me for somewhile while being cost efficient and affective and the 3gig memory buffer helps lot in high end game gaining an edge over the more efficient 960 at that price point

And the latest ARM iPad is faster per-clock than AMDs current line of x86s CPUs, The only LOL here is you thinking ARM is worse than x86, ARM is a superior design, it doesn't waste power converting CISC to RISC interally.

why not (thermal design power) which is the typical power draw in 100% usage

LOL that is ARM

buy console

I got a card of Craigslist its a Msi Gaming R9 280x $150

lol I apologize for this comment I misunderstood you lolz but Yeaa I agree their comparisons are false

You missed my point entirely it is capable of 5k video yeaa I was not saying for games I said " Living room system "
