I didn't buy an R290X.
I didn't assume you did, I was pointing out the farce that the latest AMD launch was.

I was waiting to buy a card with BF4 bundled, no bundle appeared in my price range - so no card was bought.
I bought BF4 separately and am playing with my old card on medium settings.
I want to see Mantle performance data.
I want to see proper coolers for the R9 290.
If these aren't available in the next week or so, I'm just going to buy a 780.
Q: I’ve heard that the AMD Radeon™ Battlefield 4™ promotion was applicable to all AMD Radeon™ R9 Series GPUs. But now I’m hearing that it’s only on select R9 Series GPUs. Which is true?
A: AMD’s board partners, including Sapphire, XFX, MSI, Asus, HIS, Gigabyte and others, will be identifying select AMD Radeon™ R9 290X, R9 290, R9 280X, R9 270X and R9 270 SKUs for the Battlefield 4™ promotion. Please visit www.amd.com/battlefield4 for a regularly-updated list of specific models that include Battlefield 4™ with the purchase of an AMD Radeon™ R9 Series GPU.
I ordered 290 on 13th but I wont get free bf4?

SAPPHIRE have an R9 290 BATTLEFIELD 4 EDITION bundle listed on their website now. No option to buy.... no revision to the cooler either (as expected).

What's a tax identification number?
