Will have to check GPU-Z to validate.
Also I got a 390 and 390X, sadly both volt locked. So my -100mv 290X can almost reach a 390 stock.
Windows 10, latest AMD drivers, getting 29-31MH, 33MH with extreme overclocking.
390X runs a bit cooler and can crank out higher engine OC, but I need to upgrade my PSU to make things safe to test long term.
I have not messed with memory clocks, as I'm happy with those speeds, but curious if anyone else has feedback.

What about these?

Without the ribbon cable, are these recommended?
Also the 390 with 8GB of RAM should be able to get around 30MH correct?

The 390 should get around 30MH/s when the Core frequency is around 1060mHz and memory 1250MHz.
Try 625 mhz mem, you will still get 30MH/s
In order to get 30MH/s, 1125 MHz is the minimum. Have you tried the 625 MHz memory frequency yourself?
Just tried it on my 290X, I get the same rates, 27-28MH, however Overdrive and the miner still report 1250mhz, so could just be a fluke.
But Afterburner shows 650Mhz
What does the GPUZ show? It is impossible for the miner to reach 27 with 650 MHz. If I change the memory to 750 MHz, it is 21 MH/s.

I have R9 390X and have around 27MHZ now in windows 10...Just for you information and your future action

The 380X seems to be the best middle ground for space + buy in cost + ROI.
What motherboard would be best for doing a 4x380X setup? Or do you recommend using something like pci risers to keep them out of the case and put them in milk crates like old times?

The best motherboard for mining is the ASrock H81 pro btc. It is very solid and price is not high either.
I use the Asrock H61 and H81 pro BTC, they are working very well, you do not need to short the card presence pin.
Thank you both!
Since it only has one x16 slot, I assume it was designed to have the cards outside the case for the rest of them.
Which Risers did you use?
You can use either the USB or the flat cable riser. If you use the flat cable, you need to plug the two molex socket on the mother board.
Which brand and model do you recommend?
brand for riser? they are all the same, just don't buy from chinese on ebay, high % of having many not working, and result in burning your gpu
i'm buying from a german guy on ebay, his risers are very good, all working for me, no issue
this in english, i payed 5 euro at first and then 7 euro, now they are at 8 euro apprently he is rising the price, too much demand i think

Is that USB riser made in Germany or made in China? I have all my risers from China, all working well.
i don't know, but i know that risers from china soem times are defective
Looking into building a rig for mining XMR ect. What are the best GPU's for that right now?
Thanks for the help and this should help newbies in there research as well. Also I'm not looking for necessarily energy efficiency more hash power I know 290s are good but price wise better to get 280s and run them in crossfire or sli?
N card is best,like GTX980. Thanks for the help and this should help newbies in there research as well. Also I'm not looking for necessarily energy efficiency more hash power I know 290s are good but price wise better to get 280s and run them in crossfire or sli?
+1 for stay away chinese usb riser on ebay. I bought 5 and more than 50% of them are not working... 
i prefered buy hardware near from my place, it's high risk to buy hardware from other country

Thanks for all the great info in this post. so Im go with 4 380x cards and a H81 pro btc mobo per rig. Now Im using miningrigrentals to rent hashing power and I feel I'm just making money for them. so Im invest in my own rig. Thanks again.
