Well I was hoping my post may of convinced some people to believe this was real as the thing that gave it away for me was the fan was in the exact same position.

LMAO! Funniest thing today on TomsHardware they posted about this:

http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Rad...GCN,15198.html

They first posted it up thinking it was real. Then they changed it to say, "Unfortunately, it looks like we just got hit with this as an April Fool's gag. Good one, TechPowerUp!"

Then they relabeled the title of the news post from "AMD Radeon HD 7990 Reference Board" to "AMD Radeon HD 7990 Reference Board (APRIL FOOLS)"

Then they completely removed the news post from their main page. LMFAO!

Talk about late to the game! Wow it's already April 3rd. ROFL!
