970 is  way over 300 euro :D Cheapest I can find at my retailer is 320. But I agree, since r9 290 would be risky on 500w.

If you want to change your power supply you should get 970 it will run on 500w no problem. For 290 I would suggest 600~. But buying a psu aswell is not good value. Get 970.

Yeah.  It's the best bang for your buck at the moment.  Another option would be to wait for the R9 300 series, which is supposed to be even more power efficient than the GTX 900 series.

The cheapest one. If you can afford to buy not the cheapest one then Gigabyte G1, Asus Strix or any EVGA. But it generally does not make that much of a difference, I would go for the cheapest one.

The cheapest I found was Gainward stock cooler one. You should look at your vendors, I have no idea where you live, the prices are different.
