Powercolor HD 7990 Devil 13 6 GB @ techPowerUp

Several people have come to me saying that this card might be the best thing since the last great invention after someone figured out you could slice bread.

And that is saying a lot!  

PowerColor is only making a small number of these awesome cards so be sure to buy early before they are gone.  (then wait 6 months when used ones hit ebay)

PowerColor's HD 7990 Devil 13 is the first dual-GPU HD 7990 that reaches our labs. This huge triple slot, triple fan card comes with fully enabled Tahiti XT GPUs, running in an internal CrossFire configuration. As a result the Devil 13 is the fastest AMD-based graphics card we ever tested.

I esp like this quote from the review.

All data in this review was obtained after I repaired a major design error of the card. When I received it, the card ran extremely high temperatures, reaching beyond 100°C, causing instability and black screen hangs. The fan would also run at 100% almost instantly. This is caused by screws with integrated stop that resulted in too little mounting pressure between GPU and heatsink, clearly an engineering oversight.

They used a series of washers to apply more spring pressure to the heatsink and get better contact.  My guess is that it wasn't an engineering oversight but rather an issue during assembly.
