Options for my pc build

I'm, slowly, working on my over and have gotten to a point where I need to seriously look at graphics. My original plan was to use 2 radeon 8750s, but I wanted to ask here for other options and opinions. My price range is $200 each card. I will be playing mostly mmorpgs, but might play Tom Clancy's the division. I am planning on running 3 monitors, though I'm not sure which ones yet.

My system is in a CM storm trooper. It's got an Asus p8z77-v pro with an i5 3570k and 8 gb of ram. I am planning on adding another 8 gb of ram and upgrading my psu to a more well known, maybe corsair, brand and model with at least 750 Watts, unless I need more for graphics cards suggested.

I am a fan of ati/amd cards, since I've had nothing but bad experience with nvidia.

OK so I've decided to go with a r9 290 and get the nzxt g10 and x40 to cool it.

This might be the wrong place to ask this, but would I be able to replace the g10 fan with a bitfenix spectre pro? Would it be as efficient and quiet? Also, would the bitfenix fans be good for the radiator?
