We've been steadily bringing you information on the soon to be released 7990 from AMD. It was mentioned in the last article that cards have been sent to reviewers so that benchmarks and reviews can done in time for the release date. However, as is becoming more common, the first performance benchmarks have been leaked.
The 7990 has been benched against the Titan and the GTX 690, both of which cost around the same as the 7990 at $1000 USD. What do we know about the card?
We already know that the card has a triple fan setup to keep this beast cool. Clearly this is an impressively powerful card so the benchmark results should reflect this and they do. This card smashes the Titan and the GTX 690!

However, for many the real test will come when these cards do battle in game. Hardware.Info have released a benchmark for Battlefield 3 which shows the 7990's performance against the GTX 690 and the Titan. The 7990 is only a few frames faster than the GTX 690 when run on Ultra at a resolution of 5760 x 1080! This is very impressive indeed!
