I just bought two, 290's.
I had a 780 I bought 4 weeks ago from microcenter...with tax, it cost me $726. I returned it 2 days before the 30 day limit for a full refund.
The total cost of these two 290's was 799.98
For $74 more dollars I got a massive performance increase.
I was going with the 780ti...but to buy a $700 card with 3 gig ram is just stupid...planned obsolescence.
One question I have...on my mobo, the 2nd pcie port is right below the first. the third slot is pcie2.0, not 3.0, like the others. where would you recommend I place the second card?
