Well if the 750W can handle 6970 in CFX you can bet it'll handle the 6990. Power consumption shouldn't be too far from 6950 CF

Figured it'd be a $800+ card...

But everyone else thinks it's a cheap $500-600 card.. >.>

pre orders are always much higher than sale prices when it comes to hardware.

The usual calculation for computer hardware in Germany is 1 US$ = 1 €

Another offer 587 €

Just to be clear on something, MLAA is supposed to give about the picture of 4x AA with a much lower performance hit right?

Because I did a test with Heaven 2.1 (at stock settings), where I enabled 4x AA, the I disabled AA for the next test, but enabled MLAA in Catalyst instead.
I found MLAA had a bigger performance hit. :wtf:

MLAA = 4xSSAA not 4xMSAA. That is why the performance hit is bigger.

the point of MLAA is that it works on every game engine, and even things that arent games. compatibility was its main focus.

inferKNOX · Mar 7, 2011

I see. Thanks guys.
Too many AA's these days...

Edit: Mussels, I noticed it's 'compatibility' blending my on-screen overlays for FRAPS and Afterburner, lol. Any way to counter that?

none at all. it also did it to IE and MSN for me, when it first came out.

that is the flaw of MLAA, it applies it to everything.

Depends on game, I get barely any hit in some games much more in others.

MLAA works brilliant with Stalker.

well no... but seriously, what else gives you AA on all your text and web browsers? clearly they filled a gap there :rolleyes:
