^This.

The 295x2 is essentially xfire reference 290xs, so an xfire setup with aftermarket cards, and ones as good as the lightning, will perform much better.

If you have the room for those two R9 290X, then go for them. It's cheaper and they are great quality cards.

Get two 290x if you have the space, the 295x2 if you are restricted in PCI slots. Oh yes... and when you want integrated cooler for the GPU rather than just air coolers.
