I've sold my 290X in anticipation for Vega but since it might come later in late 2016/2017 I wanted to use something in between. Buying cheap low end card like GTX 730 is pointless since I could spend a bit more for something a lot more powerful. I could buy a 2nd hand HD 7970 or brand new GTX 750Ti/R7 270/R7 360 for the same price. Which one should I chose?
My case airflow is quite bad, with 290X it could warm up the VRM to 90+C but the core is fine at around 80C, if I take out the side panel the temperature dropped to ~80C for VRM and 75C for core. The HD 7970 is a reference design so it expel heat from the case which IMO is a good thing for my case.
