It would be worth the minor price difference to go with the 290X, but only with custom cooling, the reference card design runs far too hot. |
I agree that AMD's reference cooler is... to be polite, not up to the task. That's why I linked the Asus card (which I've read a review and not only is quieter and cooler, but even overclocked uses a bit less power than the reference card)
About the minor price difference, there's a moment where you have to put a stop. You always can get something better for a bit more.
