GPU for £150

[Morfinel]

Im looking for gpu in range of £150 with psu SF 550W and Im confused what to get, only option is R9 270 but it's not that good value for money comparing to 280 other option would be to wait for GTX 960, deadline is GTA 5 launch

EDIT: are GTA cpu heavy?
Thanks

The R9 280 is a faster GFX card by far.

But in the clearance section are one or two R9 280Xs for £129-£139.

The only problem with 280 is the power consumption. What is the warranty policy on B grade products? I would rather pay extra even to have 3 years warranty then 2 years I don't upgrade very often. I hope GTX 960 will be released before GTA V

Bgrade are 90 days with OcUK and whatever remains on the manufacturer warranty.

Your PSU should not be an issue with either 280 or 280X.

The R9 280 will run fine off a 450W to 550W PSU.
