I have the ASUS R9 280x DC2 and 100% happy with it.
Like claygraffix I get 750kH/s with it. (undervoltaged + increased the engine clock with 80MHz)
But what I really like about this card is its superb and silent cooling system.

Gigabyte R9 280x Rev2 is best. It produces 730k/s while its undervolted to 1.075V at 64C . Sapphires and other makes are power hungry. No other make can come close to Gigabyte version.
the best 280x is the one you can find for retail price.
good luck.
good luck.
I have 4x ASUS R9280X-DC2-3GD5 3GB GDDR5 DVI-I DVI
All at 750kh/s on stock settings, 69-71 deg. Going to buy 4 more soon.

i would go for asus 280x. toxic is hard to cool and getting really hot and noisy
yea the heat might be issue since the case isnt that big
the cpu cooler gives some dirrect air but only to the gpu 1 thou
currently i can run my asus r9 270x 465kh/s on 64c

Go with the Sapphire Toxic. It's about 50 KH/s faster than the MSI.
So i want buy some more mining power and i am not sure what exact card is the best
