I meant to compare to the DiRT 3 example :)

based on what i'm seeing with single cards i'm going to take a guess the 6990 @ 6970 gpu clocks is probably going to beat it with AA settings due to the 2GB of vram buffer. but no ones bothered to really review it in dirt 3 so its hard to say. and [H] didn't even do an eyefinity performance review on the game which makes it even harder.

Where's the SLi bridge in thre front page picture.

I'd just buy three 580 GTX 3GB cards for the money you pay for 2 of those MARS things.

Hey guys, do you get to keep the cards you review? :eek:

I hadn't installed the SLI bridge when I took the pics, I was so excited by the setup I had to snap a pic and show Kyle. The SLI bridge connector is installed for testing :p

And we actually have to give one of these Mars II cards back unfortunately, I have a limited time with it, they sent us a second sample they use in-house especially for us so we could we could get you guys these Quad-GPU results :)
 
my friend recently bought a 6990 because he couldnt find a mar2. took like a week to even find a 6990, (he was unable to find a gtx590 through his supplier also)

i wish i was rich and can afford one of these lol.

For the article will you be using the ausum bios setting on the 6990 at any point. Since it's a option on the product that is covered by the warranty it would be nice to see it added. Much like your review of the toxic 6950 where you showed the unlocked shader bios setting.
