Re: Official Radeon 7970 Review and discussion thread
I've been checking the wiring layout inside the PC and i can in fact support 4 seperate cards with my current power supply just by using a double 4 pin molex to 6 pin adapter for one of the motherboard power connectors....
 This means redoing most of the wiring since i'm a neatness freak, but once the water blocks from EK are released by the end of the month along with one of their lovely bridges between all 4 cards, i may actually go all out and buy 4 HD7970's rather than wait for the pair of HD7990's....  |

 Still sucks but just funny that even with broken drivers you're well above 60fps. |

78MHz more isn't even as high as the 10% OC cards I predicted.
