Sup guys. I was browsing the internets and I saw this on my newsfeed from Powercolor: http://www.legitreviews.com/news/15839/
The 7990 dropped in price so much that it's lower than the Titan and just about rivaling the GTX 780 price! :O With the new Catalyst drivers, do you think this will be the new go-to card for the upper range of cards? Especially since it comes with EIGHT games :OOOOOO!
Or will the frame rate issues for the CrossfireX dual-GPU cards still limit it?

The GTX Titan -- I was asking how you think the competitive GPU market will be affected by the price drop of the 7990 since they are both the flagship cards for AMD and Nvidia, respectively.
But I saw on another post that the 7990 is being discontinued. So you're probably right that the market won't be affected, since there won't be competition for that higher end of the market after it's gone.
 
Only the WW2 Sturmtiger was a worse idea than the HD7990, and both share some features: Massive thirst for fuel (power). overheating, reliability issues, massive size and highly dubious usefulness.
And this is from an AMD fanboi!.
The sooner it's gone the better.
