The Best 290x? $1000 Budget

[csmith2412]

after weeks of deciding between the 780ti and the 290x I have decided to go with the 290x. I have an AMD build with 3 monitor 5760 x 1080 res I will be using. I am on a $1000 budget for a GPU. Strictly for gaming and some video editing.... not mining.

I want...

The coolest running
Quietest
Best Warrenty
Best customer Service

for $1000 or less. I live in the US so having a US based Customer Support phone number helps.

also not planning on OverClocking... so looking for the best performance out of the box.

my first guess would be the Powercolor LCS 290x that comes with a water block pre-installed.

If you are going with air cooling then the Sapphire tri-x is the way to go
