OK, received two 290's today so quickly popped them in and run a quick bench to see how they do at stock:
Very happy with that, and a nice increase over my 7970's (RIP boys
). Will need to upgrade PSU before trying overclocking the cards, as my wall meter was showing my PSU pulling in 780W a couple of points in the benchmark. 
2 x 290 (stock clocks/cooler) running 13.11 beta v9.2 drivers, and a 2600K running 4.6GHz.
