Im going to be upgrading my graphics card in the next week or two, my budget is 180 GBP, Iv seen the 960 but a lot of people say the 280x has better performance and its cheaper, after looking at [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] it outperforms the 960 but the aesthetics of the 960 is a lot better than the 280x. Is there a better card around this price range?

280x beats the 960 in many benchmarks, but the 960 pulls ahead in some games/tasks. Even when the 280x out-performs the 960, it's by a minimal amount and you can pick up a 960 for £160, whereas a 280x will set you back around £180. Quite a few of the 960's come with backplates as well, which is a huge seller, personally.
