  • It's not an arrow. It's a... Pencil!
That is around 1000€ in terms of retailers... Not bad for such a gaming monster and computing behemoth.
Will last until 2015!

So... 690 in US = $1000, AU = $1600 ($200 more than 680 SLI!), So that means 7970 X2 in US = $1200 AU= $1800 - $2000? Which you could get 3-4way xfire 7970s mad.gif

This card is far too small. Come back when I have to build my computer inside the video card's case.

I can understand why some people buy dual GPU cards, But at this price, if someone has a case big enough to hold this card, I dont see why they wouldn't just get two 7970s.
