Anyone who's seen my threads know I'm building a rig for Christmas Season. By then. AMD's Tahiti refreshes and Hawaii beasts will come out. Simple question; All around, out of the7970, r9 280x, and the r9 290 Non X, which would be the best money wise, and performance-wise? If the 290 would be around the price of a 4gb 770, then I will definitely get that, but we don't know exactly yet. That's why I'm asking you guys! Thanks a bunch!

well either will we till we get real reviews on all the new cards. for my my 7970 runs great but i think adding a second would be more than enough for my single monitor since i plan on 1440p or 1600p in the future. that or im selling this card and getting a 290x

a lot of leaked reviews have been out, I'm just asking for recommendations. videocardz says the 290 non x is only $399.

the 280 is a re-badged 7970ghz, possibly with higher clock speeds, that is all. cant give you details for the others, no proper benches yet.
