I'm pissed cause a Stillen front air splitter came out of the mold borked and I'm working on an RMA. Thing that sucks is that a ship back to them costs $158 ground... Kinda BS since the box only ways 11 pounds but is near the size of a door.

Hey guys, I bought the most expensive video card ever, you should give it a try.
That's nice, but for the money you could have done better.
Nuh uh, it's still the best video card ever.
Maybe, but you could have done better.
Hater.

I really hate when people try to trash someone's new hardware especially when their own card is barely mid range.:thumbsdown:
Congrats to the OP....HD7990 is the Fastest Video Card on the planet right now.
Enjoy!

no genius, the point was that the 7990 has too many issues for 1000 bucks. I would take the Titan over that if I were to spend 1000 bucks on a card.Yep that pretty much sums it up.:\

gee it looks like the techreport review feels the same way so I guess they must only own mid range cards too.
"In its current form, there's no way the 7990 is deserving of its $1K price tag."

Good don't by 7990 then, but don't piss on the people that do.
As far as i'm concerned none of the GPUs are worth $1K price tag but i wont keep having ago at people who bought them and are happy with them.
Hi guys I was planning to go 2 hd 7990 but I'm new to ati cards so my question is can I use hd 7990 and 3 hd 7970 in crossfire mode? Will buy a 1600w psu for this set up
And if I do go hd 7990 and 1 hd 7970 (both gpu core are same model) will my current 850w psu handle 2 of these in crossfire mode?

7990+ 3 7970 = Pentafire
it's not possible yet. If you have a single 7970 already you can give hybrid crossfire a try(not sure how it will work though). What is your PSU model?7990+ 3 7970 = Pentafire
Thermaltake 850w
Yea I will just gonna go with a hd 7990 and a hd 7970
I heard it will work just want to make sure if my psu can take 2 of these card in, crossfire

Good choice man. 7990 is the fastest videocard atm, it kills Titan and GTX690 with ease (ties GTX690 at single-monitor but destroys it at multi-monitor).
Microstutter does exist, but it is about to be resolved, you just bought it on the right time. Meanwhile you can still fix MS for games you feel it with tools like RadeonPRO.

I'm about to buy a hd 7970 and crossfire hybrid with my hd 7990
I been googling like a hd 7970 with a 6990 crossfire together but nothing came up
So lets say if I got a hd 7990 hybrid crossfire with 7970 will this boost my fps up or that just give me some physx quality looking game play. Any one know about this?
I also have one gtx 590 right noe sitting in my closet can I use my gtx eith my hd7990 ? If so what is the benefit in it

Crossfiring a 7990 with a 7970 is not a hybrid crossfire. It is trifire (3-way crossfire). The 7990 is two 7970's on a single card, adding another 7970 is just adding a 3rd GPU in all reality.
AMD does not have anything like PhysX. It uses OpenCl/DirectCompute for its GPGPU features.
So this will increase my fps right? Maybe by 10 to 20 fps would be nice I hope
Sometimes. You'll be pushing the limits of a CPU bottleneck with a single monitor at times.
If you were serious about getting so much power, why not return the 7990 and get two 780's. You'd get better performance. Going 3 and 4 way Crossfire or SLI does not scale as well as 2-way.
I want to use ati
done with nvidia for now I think I will try use hd 7990 and a hd 7970 I think it will be Better than 2 gtx 780
http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_Titan_SLI/22.html
The 780 is going to be almost exactly what the Titan is in that review, and what you have is the same as 7970x3
Like I said, if you are serious about having that much power, you'd be better off with 780's atm. Especially with Crossfire's issues.
NOTE: Your previous system was 4-way SLI. All the problems with multi-GPU scaling you had before, is all going to be present and then some with your new setup. It would make more sense to try to limit the issues.

I will wait for hd 7990 to drop price and get another one then long wait...

I guess you are not interested in help. I hope you noticed the 1% increase in speed going from 2x 7970's to 3x 7970's. What do you think a 4th will do?
Yeah! if your going to help at least stop with the crap about 1% increase, 3 way is the sweet spot for diminishing returns.
If he don't want an NV card then its upto him, so cut the badgering.

This is really not representative of actual performance. For example BF3:
When 3x7970 scales, they destroy 2 Titans, by a decent margin. All you need is CF profiles updated. Anyways if I were the OP, I would not go tri-fire/tri-sli. I think with the HD7990 is enough.
It will help this explains it all its ashamed no one really post about hd7990 in crossfire yet damn it but here's a good one
