Just considering at the moment swapping the 3 AIO's I have in my system for a full custom loop.

Would 2 X 280mm Rads be enough to cool 2 X 290X's and a 4790k?

means I could have 2 less pumps in my system and a bit more space.

Was looking at keeping it as cheap as possible. How does the below look?

YOUR BASKET
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-D5 Vario X-RES 140 (incl. pump) £107.99
2 x EK Water Blocks EK-FC R9-290(X) - Acetal Rev.2.0 £79.99 (£159.98)
1 x EK Water Blocks EK-Supremacy MX £34.99
2 x MagiCool Copper Radiator - 280 mm £31.99 (£63.98)
2 x Monsoon 16/10mm (ID 3/8 OD 5/8) Free Center Compression Fitting Six Pack - Blue £24.95 (£49.90)
2 x Primochill Primoflex Advanced Tubing 16/10 - UV Blue £5.99 (£11.98)
Total : £428.82 (includes shipping : Ex.VAT).

 
Looks good to me.

Regarding the cooling performance. What fans are going to use for the radiators? What speed's are they running at? And what case do you have?

case is a corsair 730t so can fit a 280 in the top and front.

Was going to use noctua F12's 2,000rpm 3.94mm H2O

I do have some scythe ultra kaze 3,000 rpm in the loft as well but there a bit too OTT
 
The F12's are 120mm fans, and your going to put them on a 280mm radiator?. They wont fit!

2 A14's would however.

Anyhow, you wont need them at 2000 rpm, maybe 1000; so stick a low noise adapter on them.
