1- Mate, I was talking, as you understood by now, about the "Relative performance (All resolutions)" chart. So don't try to change the subject. Cause on that chart, which is the global performance chart for the tPU! tests, the GTX590 is FASTER than the 6990.

2- Do you have any stats on the resolution at which dual gpu cards are used? Any study, etc? No, you don't. So you can't say that they will be used at this or at that resolution. It is like saying all Asus Rampage boards were bought by people who overclock. This is computer hardware and lots of people buy stuff just cause it's expensive.
Well, if you did talk about average of all results than ok.You just didnt put it that way before.You said it was faster at all resolutions.
As for the second part, no i dont have a study.But as you said yourself, people buy stuff thats expensive (if theyre uneducated) ,so they wont pair a 590 with a 17" crt from 1995 to play it at 1024x .Theyre gonna get best of the best, thats 2560x or multimonitor setup.And even if they choose just the most common denominator, its gonna be Full HD aka 1920x .
If you really believe that such a card will be paired with a low res monitor be it an joe enthusiast or joe gold teeth.I guess youre just out of touch with reality.
But getting back to the review score, they almost definitely took the highest res results only for consideration of the performance, because thats the target audience of this kind of cards.Ultra high end.

You missed the idle temps also, didn't you? And the OC temps as well...
No i didnt, read my previous post, just this time do it when youre calm ;-).

That is irrelevant to me. Again, my point is just the difference in score on the tPU! reviews. GTX590 got better all round results and lower score. And that, in my book, is shady. And I won't even start on the EPIC FAIL anagram...
Again, back from fairy land.It didnt get "all round" better results.
It got worse results in high res scenarios (which are the most important ones for the reviewer i guess).
It had higher power consumption.
It blew up ,and wasnt alone in it.
As for the price, they listed MSRP, because thats what they got from Nv.Real price is different.And they take into consideration real price not the imaginary one.

And most importantly the score, isnt just a mathematical calculation of all the single results.Its a reviewers opinion based on what HE thinks is important for a buyer of such card.The card blew up on the guy.He wasnt particurarly impressed by that it seems.As for the drivers and blewing up, for one, its nvidias fault and second ,asus gtx590 blew up in pclab.pl with the non-blewing drivers.

But yes, if you take only points you like, then the card is awesome.
-Massive 11% performance advantage (in 1024x768)
-Quieter (from very loud to loud)
-Most of them dont blow up!
-Overclocks higher! (with a big chance of not blowing up using semi correct drivers!)

I strongly believe all TPU`s results are fair.As to the conclusion, reviewer has different opinion then yours, but given all the info this review gives out.Its up to you to really decide.
If he would be on AMDs payroll as you faintly suggest, they would choose specific amd only benchmarks and do them most favorably to AMD.Theres nothing fishy about the results.
