Can someone reccomend a reference R9 290

[irtuk]

Morning all.

I recently purchased two R9 290's from the "B" grade stock and had to return one.

That exact model is out of stock and not coming back any time soon, it was the **B Grade** HIS Radeon R9 290 Boost 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express G (GX-086-HS)

Can someone please reccomend me a reference 290 that will "play nice" with the working card and will allow me to fit the Watercool Heatkiller GPU-X ³ R9 290X block I have sat on the shelf waiting for a second working card.

I am considering this one but open to suggestions. I would like to get it ordered today so something that's in stock would be good.

Any 290 will crossfire with no issue mate!

Cool think I will go for that card then. I was just thinking about maybe having to match core speeds or any other "gotchas"

The quicker card will just down clock to match. You can just overclock in MSI AB.
