I've seen some benchmarks from both the 290 and the 780 and stock the 290 beats the 780.
But I've seen the OC benchmarks too and there the 780 beats the 290 in all resolutions except for 4k and I won't be using a 4k monitor so that doesn't matter to me. To go deeper into this amd has mantel and nvidia gsync.
In the Netherlands where I'm from the 290 is more expensive than the 780 (€40).

So which card should I get, I'll be over clocking.

780ti

No, i'm just kidding...
If you want to overclock the card go with the 780 if not 290x but my recommendation is wait for 780ti

R9, the 780 only beats it in OC because its on a reference cooler, once the aftermarkets are released it will win there too.
With the 780ti, there is no way to know how it performs. Between those 2 you mentioned the R9, with the 780ti taken in, you wont know until it is released, but it looks to be on par if not weaker than the R9.

Yeah I'll be waiting anyway since I won't have the money after nvidia releases the 780ti.
