I got myself a R9700pro at around $130...too expensive, I guess

But here in my place, everything's a little bit (or too much) more expensive than any price lists I see on the net

Like R9800pro, it's still around $200 and up for the retail version, that's why I can only get my 9700 in OEM version.
One more thing, make sure every aspect of your comp is adequate for the new card, such as the power supply. If your new card is gonna utilize the external power supply then u should check the wattage, or even the brand of the PSU.
I had to buy a new PSU just for operating my VGA card in a stable condition,'coz it's unstable when having a heavy game rendering.
That's all for a consideration
