I am in the process of building my new PC. I am looking at AMD's new R9-295X and impressed despite the price tag. Still its in the realm 780ti SLI set up or 290X Crossfire.

Debating what route to go.

Any ideas?

The performance difference between your 3 options is not much, but price difference is considerable. but i think 780 ti SLI will perform better in comparision to the options given, but if you are gaming at much higher resolutions than normal and turning AA(anti-aliasing) very high then the r9 295x2 is better because of the 1024-bit and 8 gb of VRAM. 780ti in sli outperforms the r9 295x2
