Wait, is your monitor 1080p? You bought 2 6990s? Your spread will be even LESS than this for $700+???

Lol @ the AMD faster than fastest ... In the end that's all there is to say anyway.

Can't wait for a non-reference 590 with 1 kilowatt max power draw -- (yeah that should equal to a 580 OC SLI right) - then nVidia will be able to say : "faster than the card that's faster than the fastest card in the world, that those red dudes built"

yeah, because AMD won't have any Black Edition XFX cards, or Sapphire Toxic models, etc.


I owned a 5970 Toxic before this, sold it for a 570 to use the cash for something else, now just bought my new monitor and 6990. LOVE IT

How is the noise versus 570 and 5970?
