HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY IT IS!

 

[anacandor]

I can't believe they are releasing a card with 6GB vram... My rig's still running half of that with DIMMs ^_^

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Let the cards go we need them now!

 

[thehelix]

It's 6 GB in total. Not 6 GB per card, meaning each card in the "on-board" x-fire configuration has 3 GB available.

newzealand.. im buying a xfx blackedition 7970 but i NEED newzealand dual gpu and 3gb gddr5 EACH powerhouse much? cant wait to see the benchmarks for that if its anything as good as the 7970 was the 7990 will clean house as top card

 

[titan078]

Is there micro stutter with dual GPU cards or just Crossfire/SLI?

 

[tomate2]

By the looks of it the 6xxx series were released WAY ahead of schedule!

 

[notsleep]

i'll wait for the 8xxx series. my 5770 and 5850 are still kicking out good fps.

 

[maxinexus]

It looks like 7870 will have about the same SP as current 6950 but costs $50 more.

 

[hardeho]

Running a 6750 now, looking to upgrade this quarter. Can't wait!

 

[A Bad Day]

Would be so nice if Crossfire supported up to 8 GPUs, that would allow a computer enthusiastic with a very large wallet to buy four 7990s and Crossfire them...

 

[hardcore_gamer]

I'm looking forward to a 7990, It'll be a worthy upgrade from my 4870x2

 

[PrvtChurch]

My question is what does PRC Only mean? that that card is only gonna be available in China?

 

[tmk221]

7770 gonna be $149 and then you've got $249 7850, there should be sth in between like 7830 or 7790

 

[velocityg4]

Can't wait till this and Ivy Bridge are out. I know there is no major performance boost over what is available right now. I'm more interested in the power savings. My next system should be a nice improvement both speed and energy wise. Replacing a Core 2 Quad q8300, Radeon 4850 and 80+ PSU with an i5 3570K, Radeon HD 7850 or 7870 and an 80+ Gold PSU.

I would be rather cool if this "leak" was actually free of typos.

Q4 2012 comes before Q1 2012? Making the 6xxx series a futuristic card and thus ourselves time travelers?

Actually, I believe that in cards like the 6990/7990, the full memory is available. This contrasts with SLI/Crossfire where the memory does not combine (each card needs a copy of textures and such to work with).

 

[phamhlam]

I hate how Nvidia is already claiming to beat the crap out of AMD with their 6xx GPU. I perfer AMD dude to the fact I don't need to SLI just to get 3 monitor. Nvidia, please have something like eyefinity.

 

[inerax]

Insane cards.

Ill have to stick with my 6950 2gb X 2 crossfire until they run new games slow.

 

[SteelCity1981]

wooooo 7770!

 

[alyoshka]

Yeah, ain't this like 3 days old news from TPU? Slow guys...
Anyway will be waiting for the HD7990... I just have to figure out what processor to use with it.... cos it's going to be faster than the CPUs we have out here today.

 

[alidan]

anyone know how much ram is needed to play witcher 2 at max texture size?

HD7990 = Arm + Leg + Kidney
