OcUK was selling the pre-flashed 290 to 290x VTX for £360 and HIS with with BF4 £385, but I just had a look and they seem to all have sold out already.I cannot find the 290x for a budget of £400,
but Iv heard you can make a 290 into a 290x if this is true I culd just get one of them
overwise its between the 290 and
MSI GTX 780 3gb
ZOTAC GeForce GTX 780 AMP Edition
I myself have gotten one of the pre-flashed VTX, and I just fitted a Gelid Icy Vision Rev2 graphic card cooler (only costed £30) last night, and this card is a beast for under £400 in cost in total.
However, since the pre-flashed 290 have now sold out, I'd actually recommend to buy this 780 instead:

It's within your budget, and shouldn't be too much slower than the 290/290x once you overclock it high. It comes with 3 free games as well. If I not already got the pre-flashed 290 last week, I'd be tempted by this card as well.
