I'm looking at these GPU's mainly for good price per performance can anyone help me

and put me on the right path

price im willing to put on a gpu £200
 
760 without a doubt over the r9 270x, it's generally faster across the board and can be had for as little as £172 if you shop around :)

Owned one myself and had it in SLi also. So if you add another later it would be a cheap route in the future to get more out of it.

I have a review I done posted here, if I can find it I'll link it.

what maker is the best for 760
 
what maker is the best for 760

I wouldn't say there generally is mate.

Most of the cheaper ones will have the stock cooler and you will pay an extra £10 upwards for different manufacturers with their own coolers.

I doubt you can really go for wrong in all honesty. EVGA is well respected around here in terms of their RMA and step up programs however you will pay a premium there.

If I was you I would opt for the cheapest price you can get one for :)
 
760 is better but costs more. That's about it, really :p
You can get the MSI Gaming OC 760 for under £200, that's the one I'd recommend :)
The EVGA, Gigabyte and ASUS are all solid too.
