The Radeon 6990 that was first mentioned a few days back is now out in the open for all the PC gaming world to drool over.
It’s actually a bit beefier than anyone was expecting it to be, too, sporting 4GB of RAM (2GB per GPU) and a total of five video outputs.
Unfortunately, it draws enough power to rival that of your refrigerator.
You’ll need 375w of juice at a bare minimum – 450w if you really want to push the card to its limits.
It’s not a cheap piece of gear, either, at a staggering $699.
