Will my rig run a r9-390x GPU

While i know a little bit about computers im not the biggest tech savvy guy. Im looking to upgrade my graphics card to an r9 390X model and im not sure if my system can run it. I have a Z68XP-UD3R motherboard, ~850W PSU and i7-2600k CPU. Will my setup run an 390x model GPU.

Yes it will run it.
A newer system would run it slightly better, but according to previous articles I have read, the difference is only a few percent when gaming.

PS a 390x will produce a lot of waste heat, so you might need a better case fan. Nvidia GPU use less power and run cooler.

Yes

I wouldn't get a 390x, waste of money. Just get a 970/390 or a 980 Ti if you can squeeze it in.

Your good then as long as you have good airflow those cards can create a good amount of heat
