I don't think that's entirely wood screws either, they had good time to replace some of wood screws after last years nasty delay.
I think that poster you quoted was sarcastic. 6990 not only exists but it actually has two 1536 SP GPUs on the same board. I can bet its power draw will be lower than any monster dual GPU based on Fermi NV has in store. Just imagine power draw of dual 580 Fermi card,you'd need 1KW power supply...
