Leaked! AMD Radeon HD 8990 Dual-GPU Specs

Personally I'd feel dual 8990s will be able to speed up global warming just from the heat produced and the power drawn D:.
 
As much as I've read and understand about cards and have spoken to other people about this matter, The new single GPU flagship will either be on par with the 780 OR 5-10% faster, I'm thinking more along the lines of 5%.
 
just wish they would hurry up! dont care what its called, just wanna know weather id be better of investing in 780SLI or Xfire new gen
 
It Also says it only supports Open GL 4.2, which is currently up to 4.4. It also doesn't say Direct X 11.2!

Now, maybe the Stream processor count and the Clock speeds may be real, but I think that;s just a suspected core count amount and I think this whole thing is fake :/
 
Don't think you got the 13.8 beta driver release memo...

I'm so glad I run nvidia xD

In all seriousness though, I hope the 9000 series (or Rx 2xx? I'm still confused about the new naming scheme :p) comes with a hardware implementation for the micro-stutter - If some people are to be believed though, the next gens going to be a huge deal, so it wouldn't surprise me if it is.
 
Nvidia has the same problem. They just fixed by using hardware instead of hardware. Which is more effective. AMD should make a hardware chip for the problem and add software on top of it to reduce it further. Seems like a smart move considering they already have invested so much into the software side.

And ya i agree. Next gen GPUs from both companies are going to be something special:)
 
8000 series with venus chips? I think these rumors are old. I remember reading almost the same thing a year ago (You can read release date Q4 2012). Then amd released 8000 series OEM which are rebranded 7000 series. Now we are waiting for the hawai chips 9000 series or whatever its gonna be called.

Its rumoured that AMD will finally anounce them next week. Hope its true, because my HD5770 is in dire needs of replacement...
