 sigh ... yeah the 7990 is sooooo great, that amd discontinued it ;)

"Low End Video Editing card"  :D

It's probably because they are releasing the 9xxx series when it is getting discontinued

And then he should have taken the 2 7990s or 4 7970's....it works out cheaper and is in theory 4x the power since 7990 = 2x the power of a Titan at the same price point.

I do agree the 7990 has better performance but definitely not double.

The 7990 is a higher end card than the Titan...you are clearly an Nividia Fanboy who are known to Follow Linus anyway...also you do realize that it was stopped because of the new Volcanic Islands replacing it in Q4 2013 right....i dont think you did.....the card never sold much thanks to all the Nvidia idiots buying Titans for silly money...So they are stopping it and moving towards 9000 Series

 

Call me a NVIDIA fanboy. My first own paid/owned PC had a geforce4 mx 460 and I never bought any ati cards :D

I enjoy how you are calling people Nvidia fan boys when clearly you are fanboying harder than any one in this thread while backing up your statements with no facts.

lol 6gb.  The 7990 has a 3gb framebuffer.  It doesn't use the vram of both gpus.

 

And good luck with trying to bash the guy with 10x better hardware than you.  

 

And @CoolBeans only 4 990s?  Psh weaksauce :p

Well it is a dual GPU card so I have 8 GPU's so I kinda screwed that up it should say 8 way SLI

That's true.  I was more referring to the 990s though.  Maxwell is sooo 2015.  My imaginary rig has 6 Volta Titans :D

You're basically saying that 7970=Titan...

I dont know if you know this but a single 7990 has 6GB of VRAM. Also 3GB can run MOST games at those resolutions giving the exception to games such as Max Payne 3 which are VRAM Hogs.

lol he thinks 7990 uses 6 gb vram too this newbie is acting like he knows everytin but clearly NOT.
