R9 380 (Older R9 285) for build?

They are different architectures so you cannot directly compare the number of shaders. For example, the GTX 970 has 1664 cores and capable of 3.5 TFLOPS, while the R9 290X has 2816 cores and capable of 5.6 TFLOPS. Yet for password cracking their speeds are nearly identical.

GTX 960 should pull around 110 KH/s on WPA while drawing ~ 110W of power.

Also keep in mind the R9 380 is an old card, it's just a re-branded HD 7950. So if that's the card you want, you can probably pick of a pair of used 7950s for the same price as one R9 380.
