Just wondering guys, but would there be a difference in performance between the Sapphire R9 280 and the MSI R9 280? The Sapphire is about 135 on Amazon at the moment, and if there is no difference, I'll get that one, due to the MSI one being 160. Thanks guys!

@ 135 squids, thats a bargin.

There will be no performance difference what so ever. The only difference being the cooler.

Okay dude, thank you! The reviews look pretty good on it too, everyone is saying they can play Battlefield 4 on Very High/Ultra, with 50FPS! And for 135, I don't think it's that bad of a deal!

Because it wont run @ 60FPS meaning any fram-rate drops will be really noticeable

I've seeen you try and be a smart arse around here and trying to prove that your right.

We are a community here, there are a few of us which share the same opinion which is pretty much right all the time.

I'd love it if you would kindly not try and point out where you think that we are wrong when we clearly are not.

I like to be corrected, it means I get to learn more, but there is a kind way of doing it. Right now, your being an arse which isnt welcome around here.

TLDP: Grow up, stop being an arse and think before you type.

I am not being an arse i just think that you all give out false information etc not all the time but sometimes, this is not the best place to go for builds but i am coming in to help people from a forum that are based around pc building, So i am helping people by correcting them and i am not being an arse it's the way you read it, i am just saying it in this way so you won't make the same mistake again. rant over

We all give out false information? You're so right. You are a superior being, let us all bow down to your vast knowledge. Xigyy never made a mistake. Fact is, the 280 won't run BF4 at Ultra 60FPS. Better to turn a few settings down, than to have noticeable drops in frame rate. What site did you come from then?


OP- No huge difference between the cards, just the cooler. Both will perform very similarly, get the Sapphire card.
