is using an amd r9 290 a bad idea to use with a microAXT gigabyte Z97n -wifi

Admirable
the motherboard has nothing to do with the GPU you put in it, unless it doesn't have enough enough PCIe 16x slots. since this is a single GPU, and this is a z97 board, so im guessing you are getting the 4690k, the r9 290 should be just fine.

its recommended i use a 850w xfx psu
