I will buy two graphic card R920x for crossfire system.
I need help by choosing witch model is the best for play games and oc?
I will put on them waterblock .
you really need 2 right off the bat? you have 2 6950s? one of these is roughly equivalent to 4 6950s. if you are watercooling i suggest you look for a reference 290. i suggest a MSI.
for reference, they are all the same. if you get one of those non-reference, you run the risk of having one not matching the block. you'll break your warranty if you mess with the stock cooler with the sapphire.
if you are a bencher, then get the 290X. if just for gaming, then the 290. it's silicon lottery whether you get a good clocker or not. oc the 290 50MHz and it should match the X.
make sure you have enough juice. I recommend 850W minimum. and . . . oc that cpu.

Today I buy two Sapphire R9 290x and two waterblock EKWB.
Is it possible to be such a big difference in temperature to thermal pada?
I'm from Croatia, shipping and article cost me over 30$ and I must wait min two weeks.
Does it really worth it ?
Do you have that European store that sells items listed?

Looks good! Make sure you flush your loop well before adding these to the loop.
