I just sold my trusty 760 to a mate for 85, so will be looking for a new GPU in the next few months. Yes, months. I haven't gamed at all on PC recently, and have an XBox One, so I've no need for a GPU currently, but will look to get one before my move to university. Question is, which to go for?
I'm not bias towards either company - I'm happy to buy which ever is quicker. I'm only really interested in buying second hand, since they drop in price dramatically otherwise (paid 170 for my 760 a year ago!). Anyway, I don't want to spend much more than 200, if at all. Again, not interested in new at all.
I have a 1440p monitor, but don't mind too much playing at 1080p should I need to (upscaled, of course). Since I'm going to uni, I won't have the money to keep upgrading and would like to go for something that'll offer good performance for a few years.
I was primarily looking at an R9 290, and with 390(x) hopefully releasing in the next few months, it should drop in value.
If anyone has some recommendations, that'd be great!
