I have two systems that I want to upgrade the GPU.
1. Antec 1200 case
Core i7 920 @2.67
Gigabyte EX58 UD5
6GB ram
Corsair H70 water cool
XFX HD5850
Win7 x64

2. Antec P180
Core i7 930
Gigabyte EX58 UD3
6 GB Ram
Corsair H80 water cool
XFX HD 5850
Win 7 x64

Now both of these GPU's have served me well but it's time for an upgrade. I was almost settled on R9 290 but reading more about it, it seems that Nvidia are at the front (apart from the r9 295x2). The price difference is quite a bit higher considering I will be buying two cards. Any opinions of which to choose and what brands? All suggestions welcome
Oh, I'm also running Corsair HX1000w PSU's on both machines
