Althon Micro Sapphire Radeon Vapor-X R9 280X 3GB GDDR5 DVI-I/DVI-D/HDMI/DP TRI-X OC PCI-Express Graphics Card with Boost (UEFI) 11221-12-40G

Q: Amazon says this card is 14", while Sapphire says its 12.126" which one is correct?

official dimensions are listed at 308(L)X108(W)X35(H) mm, which is 12.126" - going with sapphire tech would be the most accurate. hope that helps!

Q: Does this card display any signs of "buzzing / clicking" and/or coil whine? Does this card also come with the AMD bundle with the 3 games? Thanks!

have had no problems with card at all, easy install, no noise, did not see any free game cards

Q: Which card will perform better gaming wise Nvidia 670, Nvidia 680 or this R9 ?

You're going to see about the same performance from all of these cards, possibly a bit more from the Nvidia. They are all on the same level, but this 280x does use quite a bit more energy. I enjoy my card and don't have any issues with it being loud or unbearably noisy. A quick way to find performance is to go to gpuboss.com and select two cards you want to compare. Just a warning though, that site is heavily weighted towards Nvidia cards, so ignore their choice as the winner, and compare the stats. Also, disregard the trolling comments at the bottom of each page. Websites that choose winners and losers always breed haters. Tl;dr: pick the cheapest one of the three. They're all about the same, 680 is the best by a small margin.

Q: Like Nvidia or EVGA having something called physx does this Redion R9 280x have physx ?

This is an AMD card, so it does not have PhysX.
