its actually your choice which ever one you like more cause they all good choices and max any game out @1080p so if you want to go with crossfire or sli theres a chance you run in to duel gpu problems and a R9-290 non ref isn't going to be to much different just a slight overclock that you can do by yourself and but i personally recommend good single gpu solutions if you don't already have one of the pair cause you can get that good single gpu and later on down the road get another instead getting two gtx 760 or two 270x cause when they start get slow you add another 3rd gpu you going get good performance vs price

Hmmm...thanX for the advice :) ...i will see,maybe i go with single gpu and that's Asus cause i have a Maximus V formula motherboard and will pair these components ,cause i think or maybe iam wrong but asus give you the best qualite/silent/performence option. Yes i will play on 27' screen and the resolution iz 1080p
 
Well an R9 290 with a non reference cooler is going to be almost as good as a new card altogether, because the reference cooler is just so bad. Sapphire has announced they are making it and should come out soon. It's cheaper and beats the $500 GTX 780 so it's worth the wait.

If you don't want to wait get the GTX 780. At least it isn't as overpriced as it used to be before the 290x came out.

I just bought a MSI GTX 780 with 3 free games for £270. All the games I got with it I was going to get regardless, AC blackflag, splinter cell and batman arkham origins. Think of that as £30 each essentially I got the card for £180. Deals like this are around for you to find. Just my two pennys.
