It will get a little better but that doesn't change that maxwell and kepler are fundamentally bad at the general compute calculations that DX12 uses, mostly due to it's lower level integration I believe. No drivers or game development will change that. They inherently take longer and more clock cycles to complete a task than an AMD GPU. It is a hardware issue and no amount of driver simulation of it will make it as fast or as efficient as the hardware itself supporting it like AMD.
Yes, I agree with what you are saying. But remember how much money NVidia has. The full picture should be out soon for DX12's performance, since there is only one game "well benchmark" that had DX12.
the r9 390 does not support hardware dx12, only fiji and (oddly) the 285 can do it. you wont see as good gains on the r9 390 as you will on the fury x, fury, nano, and 285. (there will be some gains, but nowhere as big as the cards i said above will get)
Actually no graphics card out now truly fully supports all of DX12's features, so there's that. AMD cards just have an advantage with doing DX12 calculations.
They are the same card, one seller is just selling it for more money. Go for the cheaper version. You can get the Nitro 390 from newegg for $309 right now actually, and it's probably the best 390 out right now. And yeah it will fit, you will just have to take out the top drive cage.
I wouldn't go under 240gb for an SSD these days with how low prices are, you can get an 850 EVO or MX100/200 for $90 or less on sale these days, the more you spend the better price/gb you get. 250-500 is the sweet spot right now, while 120 and under isn't that great.

What would you recommend Crucial or Amd Or Samsung
Yes I am looking for a 250gb I would love a 350gb but that's a odd size so my entire system is only 285gb right now and I plan to keep it around 290gb in the future I was looking at amd or crucial (Samsung just doesn't seem Like there ssd's are any good to me) I have like 200$ for the ssd because I sold some of my old pc's and my budget increased I just cant decide Amd or crucial and 250gb or 500gb

And the Samsung 850 EVO and Pro drives are right about the fastest SSDs out right now and the EVOs are great for the price, and longevity is no longer an issue with modern SSDs so I don't know where you got the idea Samsung isn't good.
Nope, their speed is the same as many other drives, since they use Toshiba Flash (TheRacker, correct me on this). Samsung is the best bet for SSD, or Intel, for quality and speed. If you got tons of money, look at NVME Drives, much fast, much money, much wow.
What are you going to do with this SSD? And what size are you looking at?
Oh right I forgot Intel! They are great too but pricy. And sorry I'm not fully familiar with who exactly makes the chips in each drive, other than I'm pretty sure Samsung makes their own flash.
the card's new, it's not like the 970's driver was perfect when it came out, plus, Windows autoinstalls the wrong driver. your going to need to go in to safe mode and download the correct driver yourself. with this time, submit a bug report to Microsoft and they should fix it in a update.

Can I not just install Them before I install the card?
Also how will this Card fair with a Philips 144hz 1ms Monitor
And for a monitor Should I go with a 1440p or a standard 1080?
And preferably DisplayPort Because All my other connections are filled On My Monitors and TV's
And I don run these all at once accept my 2 For my desk Will be 3 After I get another one And I Currently have a 720p 24 inch Monitor in the center For most tasks A 720p Tv on the right For typing And Multitasking
And I want a monitor on the left for Movies/Tv And Gaming Terriara Minecraft CS:GO Cod And League Mostly So I was wondering if I could get a 1440p 144hz 1ms monitor if so Could you recommend one if Id be better off with a 1080p saving the money then I already have one picked out

Yes, but you could get cheaper ssd's that have better performance. 120 gb ssd's are now about $45, just for a reference.

Crucial, Sandisk, and Samsung are the best right now. AMD is just relabed OCZ drives I believe. Here is 500gb for $150: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-850-EVO-500-GB-Internal-2-5-MZ-75E500B-AM-SSD-Solid-State-Drive/301743649783?hash=item464152b3f7

Here the 850 EVO and Pro are topping the charts in read and write speeds, mixed in with a few others because they have maxed out the SATA 3 data transfer speed.

Windows will auto install the drivers for the r9 390, but install the wrong one. It installs the r9 290 instead.

1080p, 144hz is a pretty high refresh rate, and the R9 390 will need to do quite a bit of work to do 1440p 144hz.
