    New GPU for 300e

    What would be the best GPU in 300e price range. Cannot go above, is top ceiling.

    Looking that they excel in different things, which one would be better? To this date I've always used NVidia GPUs

    Also, since I'm gaming at 1680x1050 how much more beneficial would the extra VRAM be?

    Depends what games you want to play. GTA5 is perfectly capable of using as much VRAM as it can get its hands on.

    Mindfactory.de has some R9 290 cards under or at 300 Euro:

    That 300e has to also include import to Finland so if it's that close I'm not sure it's doable.

    I just pulled a site out of the air, but aren't there any local retailers to make use of? E.g.:

    (Theres probably something more suitable available, but as an example)

    Sapphire Radeon R9 290 Tri-X OC [New Edition] costs around 302€ right now in Germany, by far the best Card you can get for that price. If you want to spend 50-60€ more you could go for a MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G.
