A lot of information was presented in this thread:

In short, the 7990 has been discontinued due to it's overall poor implementation. It is well known to produce a loud coil whine noise. Like all Crossfire setups the 7990 is plagued by poor driver support and lacking game profiles. And finally, there are several instances where the latest drivers are unable to smooth out performance; all DirectX 9 games, including Skyrim, for example.

Your request looks like some criminal establishing a deal with the police from inside the bank where the hostages are.

Dual HD 7970 Ghz Ed. or the HD 7990 are the top of the line for AMD. GTX 780 and TITAN are the top for NVidia.

These are not small titles, but big AAA games: Assassin's Creed 3, Batman: Arkham City, F1 2012, StarCraft II, Skyrim, and World of Warcraft. What really surprises me is that this long list is the same as the one we had with our reviews of HD 7990 "New Zealand" implementations by board partners, like the ASUS ROG ARES II and PowerColor Devil 13. So either AMD does not care or can't fix CrossFire support with these games millions of people play."

" What is a major issue, though, is the extremely annoying coil whine the card emits as soon as it runs a 3D application. The whine is generated by resonating power circuitry coils and is a problem that can be resolved; it's just an engineering challenge. NVIDIA did so for the GTX 690 and GTX Titan; both cards don't have such coil whine issues. On the HD 7990, however, it is very apparent, and I don't understand how AMD missed such a glaring problem. I talked to five other reviewers and they all confirm it, so it's not an isolated issue. What makes the whine even more apparent is that it is constantly changing pitch and volume, drawing your attention to it by effectively overpowering the fans' "whoosh" sound."
