R9 290 (a $400 card which will be released shortly) is not the R9 290X.
The OP wants to compare the R9 290 with GTX 780

are they not i thought they were? whats the big fancy one that everyones talking about then? 290 or 290x because im also in the market for getting onewhats the difference?
It's the R9 290X.
Don't get mistaken for the R9 290. They are 2 different cards.
just did a quick google search .. yeah i see there is also roughly 75quid in the difference in price
would there be much of a performance difference? i just wanna run two screen maybe three and still get max setting on BF4
thanks bud

Then wait for the non reference R9 290X. Its $550 and made to beat the Titan.
If you wana save even more, wait for the non reference R9 290 (non X). Its $400 and made to match or beat the 780.
Non reference because they have only just been released and the reference cooler runs hot and loud. With a dual/triple fan design they will be much cooler and quieter and easier to overclock (or they might come already overclocked)
The 780Ti has also been released (same case, only reference models as of yet) It's meant to beat the 290X but for $700.

the r 290 non x is going to beat the titan quite easily when its overclocked.IMO its a waste to spend $150 more on a 290x over a 290 non x.think of 7950 vs 7970 if your willing to overclock it was a waste back then to get a 7970 over a 7950

gtx 780 is only 519$....nvidia is butt fucking amdNot really as I have noticed, since the r9-290 is 400 dollars and get 2 fps more than the 780, and when the manufacturer coolers come out, it will be able to be overclocked much more. So I am going R9-290 just waiting for the MSI/ASUS/Gigabyte coolers
