Good build, but have you considered an R9 390 instead? And also, is that PSU the "RMI" or the "RM"?

Spoiler

It is the RM, and I was considering a r9 390x, but I'm concerned about the heat. If I don't overclock, do you think the heat would be an issue?

Is a 390x worth getting over a 390? Also what brand of 390 would you recommend?

Get a sapphire 390 and unless youre planning on 1440p get the 390X
