It should be abundantly clear that AMD is launching a dual-GPU Hawaii based product in the upcoming weeks. We have spoken about this topic many times before, the AMD Radeon R9 295 X2 or whatever it would be called would be based on two R9 290X GPUs ... http://www.guru3d.com/news_story/dual_gpu_amd_radeon_r9_295_x2_in_the_works.html
Yay, new hardware Think I prefer all the rumours and other nonsense beforehand. Hope it's something great though, the last few years have been a succession of good, but nowhere near great GPUs
20nms rumoured to be a long way off, or could even be skipped. http://techsoda.com/no-20nm-graphics-amd-nvidia/#.UxzZY3FeIPM.twitter
a smile on the user's face... priceless (might remember me an advertising for a famous credit card... pure coincidence)
7990 was not impressive and kinda poor tbh, 290x was ok card but with horrible TDP heat issues and really not worth to buy at all, it remind me the gtx 480 a lot. well i guess someone at AMD felt in love with the 480 we c how it goes, and i sure nvidia gonna counter that easily with 790.
How was a 7990 not impressive? Card was faster than GTX690 and offers was amazing at the time. Some people got for 399$ before the prices jumped through the roof. Card is still faster than your GTX780.
I'm always skeptical about those dual core card. There are way too expensive for what you get, and run way too hot. My old 7970 x2 rig was like 2/3 the price of the 7990 for same performance. Still, it's useful on small mobo where you only have one pcie slot, if Crossfire is available.
Not impressive? Almost half the price of a GTX690 while beating it out, along with Titan and the rest?
