$ 600 is within my range too but thats as far as i would go, i currently have a 6970, and seriously thinking about getting the 6990 to do tri-fire.

The question is will my Antec 1200 Watt PSU handle the beast in tri fire with the 6970?

the REAL problem will be how dinky the 6970 will look sitting beside that beast. best to get rid of it and grab TWO 6990's. :drool:
 
w00t! Hopefully it beats out the 590 (if it's released). So AMD lists specs of a "6990 OC"? Does that mean that AMD will actually have a separate version with a slightly faster core?

In one article i read is says its one card with a BIOS Switch like the 6970 and 50 had. One is stock clocks (830) and the other is OC (890) with the use of the Uber Switch or A.U.S.U.M. or "Antilles Unlocking Switch for Uber Mode"

I will find it


EDIT: here you go

I just wish the 5970 will drop under the 300 mark. I can't believe it was around 500-600 and it is still 700-800 even if the 5870 dropped @ 150-170 once and can be found every where as low as 200$!
