Will you be running multiple screens? If so, get 2 of r9 290x, since they have 1 GB more memory and can handle extremely large resolutions better.

780ti sli performs better and runs cooler but costs more.

It's all your choice. If you're playing at higher resolutions, or on multiple monitors, the extra vram that the R9 290x offers will be better. But for a single 1080p monitor, the 780 ti's will be better.

I am pretty certain sli 780ti does better in most games even 4k resolution.
