AMD Radeon HD 6990

[fran123456]

Here's the Radeon HD 6990 up close. The HD 6990 is AMD's new dual-GPU graphics card that extends the performance leadership held by Radeon HD 5970. The pictures put rest to some speculation surrounding the cooler design. It now appears that the cooler design is similar to that of the GeForce GTX 295 single-PCB, as far as air-flow is concerned. A single long PCB holds two GPU systems on either sides, a centrally-located blower pushes air on either sides. The exhaust from one GPU is sent out of the case, while that from the other is pushed out of the card from its rear portion.

The Radeon HD 6990 uses two 40 nm Cayman GPUs, it packs a total of 3072 stream processors, and 4096 MB of memory between the two GPU systems. It also features a new kind of display output that consists of one dual-link DVI and four mini-DP 1.2. Power is drawn in from one 6-pin and an 8-pin PCIe connector. The card can pair with another of its kind for 4-GPU CrossFireX. It is expected to be released a little later in this quarter.

Nekako mi je to premalo otvora za cirkulaciju zraka na kućištu hladnjaka, ipak je tu riječ o dvoglavoj beštiji.

"This time, AMD is toying with a revolutionary new cooler design that makes use of a cylindrical blower (like ones used in air-curtains, on a much smaller scale) to draw air from the rear portion of the cooler, and circulate through the complex vapor-chamber enhanced heatsink inside. In other words, the card lacks a fan intake hole where it's typically located, but the rear portion serves that purpose."

Pitanje je samo na kojem ce taktu delat i performanse ce vjerojatno bit izmedu 6950 cf i 6970 cf. Usporedbe sa gtx 580 su nepotrebne jer nisu u istoj ligi. Ak jedna 6970 uspjesno parira jednoj 580, onda nije neka znanost zakljuciti da ce ju dvije rasturit.
Jos samo da dodu igre vrijedne takve zvijercine. Ne znam kaj je u zadnje vrijeme ali vec dost dugo nije izaslo nista posteno..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwQLAYGRdAs negde na 1.8 objasne sistem...fora, makar mi se ne cini nist revolucionarno.....a kaj se tice kartice, vec mi sline cure 3840 stream procesora,307 gb propusnost...uh, opce neznam kakvu kompu bi trebal slozit da to ima smisla.....

[Momir]

Odakle ti brojka o 3840 SP-a?
Ako jedna HD6970 ima 1536, znaci li da HD6990 moze imati najvise 3072 (2*1536) ili je neki drugi cip u pitanju ili "Cayman" ima jos zakljucanih SP-a

[dzura]

je, malo cudno, al gdi se got kakve spec pijavljuju je ta brojka

To su sve stare glasine, još iz vremena kad se nije znalo niti za caymana koliko će imati SP-ova

šteta šta nisu stavili neke benchmark rezultate :/

Ne očekujem ništa revolucionarno u svakom slučaju. Tko je čitao recenziju vidio je i sam da niti jedna postavka nije bila na max, što zbog činjenice da su vrtili demo igru, što zbog toga jer kartica nije mogla održavati fluidni fps. Istina, 3 monitora su u igri, ali svejedno, kartica takvih specifikacija bi to morala vrtjeti.
Tko zna, možda driveri i poprave štogod, no opet, tko zna-možda su i u šumi

March 8 Launch Date for Radeon HD 6990

The consumer graphics industry is about to see yet another round of competition between top market players AMD and NVIDIA in March, with reports suggesting that the red team (AMD) has chosen March 8 as the launch date of its Radeon HD 6990 graphics card. NVIDIA's response, the GeForce GTX 590 is slated for sometime later in March, as well. AMD is said to be finalizing the SKU, and it should be launched by partners on the 8th of next month. The Radeon HD 6990 is a dual-GPU "CrossFire on a stick" solution, in which two AMD Cayman GPUs with 2 GB of memory each, work in tandem.

AMD Radeon HD 6990 Press Deck Leaked

...
In the HD 6990, each Cayman is configured to use all 1536 of its VLIW4 stream processors. The GPU core is clocked at 830 MHz, and memory at 1250 MHz (5.00 GHz GDDR5 effective). The 256-bit wide memory interface of each GPU is populated with 2 GB of memory, setting the total board memory to 4 GB. Display IO includes five connectors, including one DVI and four mini-DisplayPort 1.2. While the HD 6990 is said to outperform GeForce GTX 580, AMD is also bracing itself for NVIDIA's dual-GPU GTX 590, with HD 6990 OC variants following an official specification of 880 MHz core, and the same 5.00 GHz memory.

European retailer salland.eu listed ASUS' upcoming Radeon HD 6990 graphics card on pre-order. It can be pre-ordered for € 715 (about US $1,000). Items put on pre-order can tend to be a little expensive, but € 715 is a staggering price. Even if (the big if) the retailer set its pre-order price a good 20% above the release price, we're looking at a € 572.25 ($ 802) retail price for the ASUS HD 6990, at least in EU.

The listed card carries the SKU EAH6990 3DI4S/4GD5. Specifications listed show that the card carries clocks of 830 MHz core, and 1250 MHz (5000 MHz effective) memory. It packs 4 GB of total memory. AMD's Radeon HD 6990 graphics card is expected to be launched tomorrow.
