i don't think i should regret mine. sounds like the difference would have been negligible if i went with i5/780 vs 8350/r9 290. plus i can always OC (or maybe thrown in a 2nd r9 290...).
only had it a few months too but no driver or other issues with the r9 290 (so far)...
I'm glad you posted, since I just bought an R9 290 for Christmas. This thread had me sweating.
I know people that had/have AMD cards and their more or less fine. It's always been more of a bang for the buck type of thing than allegiance. Personally though, if an AMD card holds the best performance to price award, I'll wait until an nVidia card dethrones it before upgrading.
But that's only because of my fear of the unknown.
