R9 290X - which driver to use?

[sk3tch]

Looks like AMD hasn't updated their site with the R9 290X driver, yet?

The beta is from 10/10 and doesn't even mention the 290X:

Brent said the driver was coming today...yet another AMD f-up? Yargh.

Ah, thank you! Yes, I have a fresh install of Windows 8.1 awaiting graphics drivers. I'd prefer not to do two installs.
