Give me your opinions

I've had a XFX R9 280x for almost 3 years performs well, mostly high to very high settings, but always notice noise at idle & load so can be bit annoying.

I'm planning an upgrade and RX 480 seems best choice to last another few years but which one to pick. Given that noise is my main concern I think the MSI 480 8gb Gaming X seems to be quietest but is it worth the price or can someone suggest alternatives .
 
Thanks anyone for previous opinions

I'm now getting near decision time and i've had the MSI RX 480 Gaming X as my likely pick past week or so.

Now i'm reading lots good news about the EVGA GTX1060 SC and MSI GTX1060 Gaming X and both cheaper than the 480 and with similar performance.

I've always had AMD cards 4870, 6870, R9 280x so should I jump ship and if so which 1060 ?

Budget can be stretched to £300
