You can get 280x below 300€, and r9 290 below 300£

But they are out of stock right now, so better wait till February for the price drop.

without wishing to not answer your question "best" is a bit subjective. I go for best performance for MINIMAL noise. Others prefer all-out grunt, and hang the noise, they LOVE jet engines.... Some just want passive cooled solutions, others want to be able to run 6 monitors and nothing less will do.

It all depends on your requirements and what you want your system to do.
