I am debating on these two cards and was wondering which one should I get? I am going to be playing BF4, and I am fine with the price difference.

Unless he has a weak CPU...in which case AMD drivers would be better

If one has a weaker CPU it can bottleneck either of these CPUs, but I've recently put these same GPUs in rigs for folks that are waiting for the Haswell refresh Z97 and K models and the nVidia drivers work better with with the underpowered CPUs, they seem to level the load better, plus you also have the superior performance of the 780TI

his most probable better choice is the 780Ti if he doesn't mind the price difference, that's true, but if i recall correctly, especially on BF4, a weak CPU will have benefit out of Mantle API

780TI is better overall but if you have a really good cooler then you can overclock the r9 290x. I think the r9 290 is a better choice because the fps difference between x and non x is literally 5fps
