GeForce GTX 770 2GB or R9 280x 3gb?

Which one should I go for, I will be playing a lot of first person shooter games (BF4, CoD Ghosts etc) and Minecraft.

Both are around 250 GBP.

If you want to play BF4 i suggest you get the R9 280X as BF4 is going to be optimized for AMD cards therefore you will get better performance when mantle comes out which means you would get better FPS.

R9 because it is a newer card so will be slightly better, and what Hoop stated

I'd get the 280x or just wait in till they put the aftermarket coolers on the 290's they are pretty hot atm..
