I am looking for a new card and I want to know if these 2 cards have the same PCB? because one is ALOT cheaper than the other, but I can only confirm the support of my block on the highest priced one

The lightning edition is a lot more expensive (They put the wrong image there, this is the lightning http://cdn.videocardz.com/1/2014/03/MSI-Radeon-R9-290X-Lightning-1.jpg)because:

 

- Super beefy PCB board design

- Binned chip

- Monster of a cooler

RIG: I7-4790k @ 4.5GHz | MSI Z97S SLI Plus | 12GB Geil Dragon RAM 1333MHz | Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 970 (1550MHz core/7800MHz memory) @ +18mV(Maxed out at 1650/7800 so far) | Corsair RM750 | Samsung 840 EVO 120GB, 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 (Closed) | Sound Blaster Z                                                                                                                        Getting: Noctua NH-D15 | Possible 250GB Samsung 850 Evo                                                                                        Need a console killer that actually shits on every console? Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861
