    What cores will the 6990 use, two 6870's or two 6950/70's?
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    I know, I spotted it the second I published, but I can't change the bit in the forum. Thanks nonetheless!

    Our best guess is two Cayman/6900 cores on the 6990, but AMD has yet to confirm. Two Barts/6870 cores probably wouldn't offer enough grunt to be a significant replacement for the 5970.
