Lol. Useless review from Guru 3D.

Look at Alien vs predator. The scaling of 6990 has already been fix and working now. Look at the charts. There was a CAP to enable 4 GPUs working on that game, and we clearly see they didn't use it.

Look at Crysis. The 6990 is dominating.

http://www.guru3d.com/article/triple...radeon-6990/14

6990 45 fps, 6990 CrossfireX... 45 fps. Duh. While there is already a fix for that. Can't believe they even post that. It's clear that review was stupid.

Total Fail.
