QUOTE(CyntrixTech @ Jan 17 2012, 11:28 AM) It's not a step backwards. The 7970 is literally the best GPU AMD every created. There's only "one" gpu in the 7970 as opposed to the 6990 which is 2 x 6970 (crippled), and the 590 (2 x 580). An OCed 7970 is very close to a 6990. The benefit of 7970 is that you can run 4 pieces of them which is equivalent to almost 8 pieces of 6970's performance. On the 6 series card, the best you can to is 2 pieces of 6990 and that is only equivalent to 4 pieces of 6970. I know what u meant, but as it turns out, I don't do benches nor do I play games just because of the need for higher frame rates to appear...All the games that I 'play' runs smoothly and ditch my current card and fork out money on 1 or maybe 2 pieces of the 7970 card which might only better 10-30 fps doesn't really floats my boat... Sure if I currently am on a mid range 2 generation back GPU I might think of getting 7000-series GPU but it turns out, I'm getting more than enough frames on my games, I'll probably skip the 7970 and either fork out for the 7990 or some other card after the 7-series... 7970 is probably the best single GPU out there nonetheless...
