decision time........

Evening all,

Just dropping in to get some advice...
Currently i have an R9 290 Tri-x from Sapphire
However, i've been given a GTX780 Matrix Poseidon to test.

Question - should I change from the 290 to the 780?

Why not just test it on the games you play and then decide?

Because i'm lazy if im honest!! my 290 has a custom backplate on which means getting to the clip on the PCI-e port is really difficult and usually means i need to take the mobo out.

The 290 i have is the OC version so its fairly powerful already, but just wanted to check here where the knowledge is The main reason i was thinking to change is because it's ROG and fits well with my motherboard, but if swapping means effectively stepping backwards then sack that for a game of soldiers

Thanks all for the input!
