So today I dicked around trying to decide whether to get a Sapphire Tri-x or MSI Twin Frozr 290x. By the time I made up my mind on the Sapphire it was sold out. So, i thought, no big deal I'll just get the MSI. Wrong. It was sold out too. So now I have everything coming for a new build except a GPU. My first question is do you guys know how long Newegg usually stays out of stock on items like this? Secondly, if I was to drop down to a 280 would there be that big of a difference. I've looked at the scores and avg. fps and all but I would like to hear from someone that has actually used similar products. I am hoping to be able to play BF4, Crysis 3, etc. I don't really care about ultra settings but I'm hoping I won't have to bottom everything out too.
What I have coming.

Edit: Just re read the other thread I made in system builders advice. Someone answered my question that 260x-290x will run it.
