I'm looking at XFX Double Dissipation, Gigabyte Widforce and Sapphire Tri-X. Can you tell me which is the best from these three? Thanks in advance.

The Tri-X is easily the best as it has the best cooler.

Please try Asus DirectCUII as it will allow for more overclocking with less noise. Out of these three my recommendation is Sapphire Tri-X for sure.

Asus R9 290 is a custom PCB not a reference one and Direct CU II enables to overclock it much higher clocks with ease.

As a general practice, always prefer to read the reviews on the products. Don't rely on users' comments only.
