the gtx 590 was just released and boy does it disappoint. according to benchmarks its get beaten handily in most benches to the 6990. (AMD really has the dual gpu crown and has since the 4870x2) it does however run quieter than the 6990 but not cooler. regardless AMD retains the fastest gpu on the market and Nvidia falls further behind in the competition. AMD is on a roll!!

i will not say it gets owned, but certainly 5-6 frames faster the 6990 in some games doesn't justify the wait and price

not really trolling just pointing out a failure. I called it a LONG time ago that AMD would become the main and more powerful video card creator. Nvidia was the go to card for a long time but no longer.

what you fail to understand is the 690 hasnt even been released for 24 hours and already youre kipping up about how it "fails" and is pretty much a "complete disaster" compared to the 6990 which has been available for a while now. the sole reason for this are the drivers. if you could see past your fanboy ego-ism, youll come to see the 690 is probably equal or just a bit quicker than the 6990 once the drivers get going. plus, most people dont call 4/5 fps "huge" considering the age of the card.

please, your comments are useless at this point in time. come back in 4 weeks time when we have some proper benchmark references.
