I would like to not get the XFX Double Dissipation 200 series because the VRM temps seems a bit high in load

I modded one of them with copper heatsinks on the VRM. They don't get over 75C overclocked.

How many are you looking for? I've got a quad set of R9 290s and pondering the idea of selling them.

Yeah, all four are 4GB models from Asus. I've got two of them pulled at the moment. Here's from GPU-Z.

I've never had an issue with them personally, even with all 4 installed but that's a personal preference. It's all good, not going to hurt my feelings.

I mean for my ambient temperature it is too high and the card mgith increase the fan speed to keep it cool and the noise would be too high
