Oh, so no reference this time? Wow, this means Sapphire, ASUS, to name a few can do what they want. Hopefully they release one that blows anything out of the water by as much as 100% or more. To hell with sucking power like there was no tomorrow, give me the juice :D

High end cards always have high price. Its like owning a Lamborgini or Ferrari

But you don't change your Lamborghini every year, or every 2 years, right? ;)

You know, I don't think AMD really cares what happens with it considering a very small percentage of users buy the highest end hardware. It's not where the market is at.

There is not a reference 7990 so I am afraid you are wrong sah!

Also typically cards like this would draw power than the reference design ( if one existed) to to higher clock speeds and focus on overclockability ( not a word!) : ]

For example look at ghz edition AMD 7970s vs original reference design, power draw is a LOT higher. ( to guarantee stability)

B/c they're using up old stock. The reference 7990 will be using refresh chips with lower voltage. This 7990 will be using cherry picked ones, I'm sure. I assume they're still planning for refresh cards with higher clocks and lower power.

AMD is known to overvolt everything to stupid highs. You can drop the voltage a lot if you were only going to run it at 925 mhz.

I had bought a PowerColor 4850 a number of years ago. Ran well but didn't overclock well.
