What's the hype ? Performs equal to 7870 and it's damn late to the party
Better than nothing I guess

AMD Radeon HD 7970 GHz Edition "Tahiti XT2" Detailed
Nope ... AMD always used Full Shader "XT" chips (7970, 6970, 5870) for their dual GPU solutions, not castrated "PRO" chips. (7950, 6950, 5850)
The chips are just clocked lower than single GPU...

I don't think AMD should drop prices at all:
- The 7970 trades blows with GTX 680 @1080p
- When OCed, 7970 beats GTX680 at Higher Resolutions
and the most important thing:
- 7970 is widely...
They fixed BF3 benchmark:

LOL @BF3 chart, where's 7970 FPS count ?
If these cherry picked benchmarks are the best a heavy OCed gk104 can do, it doesn't look good at all
Some cherry picked benchmarks @1080p where GTX680 beats 7970:...
hmmm
IMHO What Kyle is saying is, what everyone suspects, gk104 won't stand a chance against Tahiti in 2560x1600 gaming, let alone multi-monitor resolutions

Old :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing news
