Now, im browsing between the different models, and i only have "so much" money to play with the cheapest options here in Denmark is

Gigabyte Windforce R9 290.

XFX Double DD R9 290

ASUS Direct CU II R9 290

Iknow they are all good, but what is best?

The DD cooler is inferior to Gigabyte's Windforce and Asus's DirectCU II. But if you really want to, you can get the XFX. I am talking from a performance standpoint, not a design / visual standpoint.

XFX has a great reputation for warranty support (though so do Asus and Gigabyte), but their coolers aren't as beloved as Asus's Direct CU II or Gigabyte's Windforce. The Hawaii GPUs are power-hungry and hot, so I definitely wouldn't settle for a lesser cooler than necessary.
