AMD will have a few options. A dual 7970 is definitely a possibility, and I'm sure a few companies will put out dual 7870's (which could end up the bang for buck champ if priced properly). It's also possible that AMD are sitting on another design and planning a quick launch that'll normalize pricing (think x1800-x1900), although that situation is doubtful since all we've seen is a slide that was proven to be fake.Originally Posted by boxleitnerb
Let's be honest... right now, AMD's biggest limitation in putting out a dual-GPU card is that they'd have to significantly dial down the clock speeds in order to hit 300w. Their biggest enemies are heat and power consumption, sounds really familiar actually. lol
Or they could just play with the voltage a bit...

Once the government outlaws your guns your life is forfeit. You're already dead, it's just a question of when they are going to get around to you.
Exactly. AMD can easily lower the default voltage without too much hassle. Considering the clocks people get out of the 7970 on stock voltage, dropping it down shouldn't be too much trouble.
