Which of the crossfire setups would be better (I don't care about price):
3 x R9 280x
OR
2 x R9 290x?
I play a few games and do high res 3D rendering
 
Solution
The first one of course. 3 is always better than 2 ;)

never do that!
always pick the higher cards, as they provide more upgrade potential.

later you can add another r9 290x.
dont go with 3x 280's
