As long as your PSU is good enough I'd actually go with the 290X as it performs about the same as the 970 but you can utilize a Freesync monitor which are much cheaper then the Nvidia Gsync monitors (about $200 difference).

After reviewing benchmarks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5aPkZFnVYU

and knowing the GTX 970 can overclock to perform equal to a GTX 980 (stock), I'd go with the GTX 970.

I've used FreeSync and it's nothing special if you weren't experiencing screen tearing before.
