I know. Should i go with an ATX or Matx build??

Definately ATX. It give more room for crossfiring/going SLI with bigger cards and more expandabilitly in general. Im not sure but I beleive if you ever wanted to go Crossfire with r9 290's in the future then you would need an ATX board. I would ask someone about that though because I havent researched that in depth. To be safe I know that an ATX build is better :) It has more slots and thingys haha. Just depends whether you want a smaller case or a big one.

The r9 290 and 780 are pretty much on par. They differ in the slightest amount of fps (like 3 :P) in different things. The r9 290 definately beats it in BF4 but when mantle comes out that can only improve it. As for the 800 series I wouldnt wait, but... thats just me. Obviously the r9 290 kicks ass in every game so when things start to become harder to run you can just add a second one and beat any card out in the 800 series by a big shot. I dont know when the 800 series will come out. Ive Heard half way through 2014 though.

I would pick a non reference r9 290, for example I just purchased a Gigabyte Windforce 3X R9 290 that comes factory OC'ed for 580 bucks on newegg. You could go with the (x) version if you have Money to blow or you could use that extra Money for something else. As for the 780 that is neck to neck with the r9 290 but the r9 290 pulls ahead in most cases by very Little. So I feel like you should choose between r9 290(x) or the 780 ti. IF I were you, i would go with the r9 290 non-x because 1) saves cash for other upgrades hardly sacraficing any preformance from the non x version 2) Mantle which comes on all AMD cards which gives boosts in games that the developers activate it such as bf4. As for the 780 ti, if you want the most preformance out there at a cost, buy this, but the r9 290s are overkill already thats why I reccommend them. also because mantle should be a big hit.

 

EDIT: If you decide to go with the r9 290s MAKE SURE you buy one with an aftermarket cooler unless you like haveing a hot jet turbine in your room.

for the litecoins i have to only have my computer open. Now registration to get the money?

You download a program for LTC. You join one of the servers (pools) and then start the miner. You will have had to download an online wallet for this, make sure you make the passcode good with things like "#¤%&/ and stuff so that people cant brute force your acccount and take your earnings. As you mine the coins you get auto transfer to your wallet.

No it doesnt go to your bank I mean. It goes to a onling wallet that you download. DO NOT give anyone your bank. It is a scam if it says that.

1) You mine the coins on the program 2) They transfer to your wallet 3) You sell them on ebay to other people who invest in them (hoping the price will rise).

 

These coins may be the new banks in the future so they are prolly trying to make this so you can transfer this directly to cash without Selling them to people.

so with this i can buy things only online with my litecoins?

There are some online game stores where you Can pay directly with your lite coins. Its like 2 or 3 lite coins (can be made in 8 Days with an r9 290) for AAA titles. So thats a great deal but I woud try to save them for when the price rises.

the mars vs the 290x or 290 at 4k which is better?

if you can't afford a 780ti, why are you even asking about 4k. Its something that is irrelevant to you or me and only matters to people who have $4000 to spend.

Finally my Santa hat doesn't look out of place
