R9-290. Despite the worse cooler, it will still perform better.

380X by XFX. Probably around a 290 in performance and it'll run cooler.

The XFX one is probably the best one you listed, ASUS ones kinda suck. Club3D are okay, too.

Anyway, the 290 is the best of the bunch.

I don't think you are aware that asus and amd don't mix, the 290 is the best choice regardless though
