had my mind set on a 970 but after all the stuff going on and reading some other thread, with the reduction atm, this thing has turned my head!

My questions is this, what is the difference between a 290 and a 290x?

290X has 2816 stream processors.
290 has 2560 stream processors.

So the difference is 256 stream processors.

That's it.

this, higher default clock, but probably you can match the clock with a overclock and you can get 290X with 4Gb or 8Gb.
