Is there anything worth while upgrading to at the moment with the better performance then 290X 8GB Crossfire? I would be hoping to get 1 card because the heat from the 2 cards is crazy at the moment. I run games on a 4K monitor and would like to carry on that way. If there is any info on up coming cards id like to know also.

Mobo: Maximus VII Hero
CPU: i7 4770K @4.2GHz
GPU: 290X 8GB Crossfire
Ram: 16GB Corsair Vengance

 
Solution
You could upgrade to a GTX 1080. It is fairly capable at 4K, especially if you buy one of the good aftermarket cards (e.g. Gigabyte Xtreme) and overclock it.
