If the retailer shipped you a black edition one it should boost provided it's not going to blow up because of temperatures. Anyway, I think that tweaking it a bit with a tool like Sapphire's TriXX wouldn't harm if you want to boost it manually

You said, that you have the 280 BE? 1050 is the clock speed for the 290X. The 290 BE has a "boosted" speed of 980. So your card seems fine. But you should be able to give it a little extra without any trouble and without extra cooling.
