I believe his set-up is running on Linux as Windows always had issues addressing more than 6 GPU's. The Catalyst 13.11 Beta 9.2 for Windows makes the Radeon R9 290X a little louder as it adds about 100 RPM to the "Quiet" mode; not sure how much more RPM's are added under Uber mode. The increased noise emitted from the GPU is definitely a tradeoff but will allow it to reach higher clock rates but not the 1000Mhz known for this GPU. We will need to wait for the next Linux driver update and see what updates epixoip post from there.
