R9 290 uses 1 gpu thread, so: -g1 and --thread-concurrency 20481 (although this value will vary depending on how much RAM you system has), after you change both of these you should be able to increase -i and not see any hw errors.
After that, play around with your core clock and mem clock speeds.

increase your -i to -i 20 and see what happens.. if card heats up then lower some. 1 -13 is too low. 1 -15 should be ur minimum. what i think anyways from messing around with my two R9 290x's .

Try these settings:

--scrypt -I 20 -g 1 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 24500 --auto-fan --auto-gpu --gpu-engine 1025 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-powertune 20
