Memory doesn't matter that much on a GPU unless you game at super high resolutions and the 7990 is an older card and in reality it only has 3GB because it is 2x 7970

No reason to replace the 290, buy a free-sync display of some kind, either 21:9 1080p IPS, or 1080p 144hz TN at that budget, or you should probably save up and make the jump to 4k, it's about $500 for a 4K IPS free-sync display

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
