At 1080p they will both max out games, but the 970 is cheaper so why even consider the 290?

prices may be different but it is the same price as the Asus r9 290 i mentioned, both at $479 in scorptec. I live in Australia so things are soo much more expensive.

Do you think I should still get the 970 over the 290? Thanks

Yes. It runs cooler, uses less energy and is still faster. Go for the 970.

Not a problem. Yes it should fit fine. Its like any other gpu. As long as the motherboard has a pci-express slot(which it does) your good to go.
