Hi all!
I need a gpu but I cant decide which to take.
Want ASUS.
I see two variants atm: ASUS R9280-DC2-3GD5 (not 280X) or ASUS GTX760-DC2OC-2GD5
Radeon have less MHz on core (850 vs 1006), but more memory (3gb vs 2gb) and wider bus (384 vs 256).
NVidia is cooler and quieter as I know. Faster and smaller

Shortly about current config: i5 4690k (not oc), 8gb ram (maybe I will add 8gb more in future), motherboard ASUS Z97-P, PSU Aerocool Imperator 550W.

Please tell me your thoughts about it (and please say why yo think that way), and maybe there is some another solutions at about the same price range?
Thanks in advance :3

Why I will be forced to change psu? As I know - current psu should be enough fot gpu like gtx760 or r9280
Budget... no idea about rates (I have another currency, so cant calculate exact sum). Maybe a 20-30$ more than average cost of listed ASUS gpu's in first post

Psu is something i wouldnt cheap out on, you dont save much anyways.
