so I think a made a nice deal, sold my r9 290 and for the same money I bought a r9 290x younger then the 290 and instead of 2 year warranty, no 3 year, score will follow.
 
Oke I had the opportunity to test 2 cards so I made a comparison of them using this benchmark.

The test is done at the system you can see in my signature accept of course the videocards the changed.

both cards I didn't run at stock settings, but I overclocked them both with +50 for the core and +100 for the memory.
The power limiter was set to the max +50

The first card I tested was the sapphire r9 290.
This was the score of that card.




The second card I tested was the gigabyte r9 290x, The score of that card was,



So the x will give you a nice boost, is it worth the money?? That is something you have to decide for your self.
 
Did you overclock the 290?

yes the sapphire 290 was overclocked from the stock 947 for the core to 1000 for the core, so +53mhz the mem was overclocked al well from 1250 to 1350.

the 290x I overclocked as well 50mhz more for the core and them mem 1250/1350 so for both cards the core and mem was the same (almost).
