@Recon-UK Not to mention you would have to drop a huge amount of your budget on a 4K monitor, I say build the rig for 2.5K and in two years get a decent 4k monitor for a buttload cheaper, then chose from the inherently better graphics solutions at that time.

Whaa, what? If you have forgotten 4K, fine suit yourself. But at 2.5k WHICH IS 260x1440 (1440p), the 780ti beats the 290/290x, same story at 1080p, it's not a waste at all. they are priced sorta the same as well, if you find a 300$ gap between the two and show it to me, then sure the 780ti is overpriced, but at 690-730$, both? 780ti CLEAR winner...

UK wins. here in usa prices are still fucked. consider yourself lucky to actually buy a r9 290/290x at it's retail price, not the inflated one. Enjoy.  ;)
