Should I get the R9 290x or two 280x's?

Title says it all. What do you guys think will give better performance and be better overall?

Depends on mantle and whether the microstuttering with AMD crossfire is still AS apparent
The r9 290x is a good card and a great price, depends on your monitors

many games do not have support for crossfire tech or sli. just take the bigest card u can get... will draw less watts with one 290x

^^^^^^^ Always the biggest single card. You can always crossfire that one later

r9 290x for sure...
I bought 3 R9 280x's and have spent the better part of this week trying to get them to work together - can only run one at the rime or I get a BSOD!
So with hindsight, I would've gone for the 290x
