Why to spend 5-6k extra for 2-5% performance difference
Iam comparing His r9 280x @22k vs gtx 770 @ 27k
Not asus one
without a price-cut followed, shop s just don't sell a 770 for 10K less, i can still see same products in 36K,37K, if there is really a 770 exists with 27K, its an awesome deal. 770 OC performance is better across all benchmarks.
i read in this forum itself somewhere that price in india is some 80X the price in newegg or so, hence a $329( after price cut )*80 = 26320 INR, if this is true then 27K is THE closest enough tag we cant hit , that being said i was referring the reference model.
also between R9-290 and R9-290X, there is only 1-2 avg FPS difference in many games ( dirt3, FC3 for example), if for such narrow difference, the premium is justified in Pc space, why not for 770?
