If you are going only 1080p, just go for GTX970. You only go R9 290X if your monitor resolution is 1440p or higher. Change of power supply is required for R9 290X because GX 650W 1st gen isn't good.
The GTX 970's performance is (even with that slower 0.5GB) similar or better than the R9 290X. Price is also quite similar, I would go for GTX 970 any day over the R9 290X.
At 1440p or higher both won't be good performers either, I tried GTX 970 on 4K before and I don't see how far the R9 290X can stretch.
For those resolution or higher, it's GTX 980 at the least, or better still GTX 970 SLI.
