I would like to get R9 290 (Hawaii), but it doesn't make sense when I am gaming on 1080p as all games will run above 60 FPS on R9-280X. Also, I would like to overclock to 4.6-4.7 GHz or the max achievable in that CPU anyways. So I was thinking of getting a better cooler for it. Could you please...

CPU - FX-8350 @ 13.5K
Motherboard - M5A99FX PRO R2.0 @ 11.5k [theitdepot]

Didn't know Vtx support has been stripped...

Its available at 12.7k+5% (VAT). Should I go for it?
If not what are my other options...
