The only problem with that is that most of the R9 290 in my price range have lots of overheating issues
 


What R9 290s are available to you and in your budget?

PowerColor Radeon R9 290 OC, 4GB GDDR5
Gigabyte Radeon R9 290, 4GB GDDR5
4096MB PowerColor Radeon R9 290 PCS+
Along these lines
 


What's wrong with the Gigabyte? It's a great R9 290. Where have you heard that it overheats?

If it is used for gaming I would take a i5 4690K, and then get a 780 or an AMD equivalent. Also think about getting a SSD. Just my thoughts of course. ;)

I have heard that any R9 290 without windforce overheat but sure I could go with that
