ASUS Working on AMD Radeon HD 7990 Dual GPU Video Card

We’ve talked about ASUS’ intention of making a new dual GPU video card some time ago, but the company has bluntly denied any such plans so we gave up on the idea also. Now there is some new info available that suggests the Taiwanese giant is actually working on an Ares successor, but that’s not going to be a dual Pitcairn card like it was initially rumored.

The hardware enthusiasts at ExPreview have managed to snatch a picture of what’s supposed to be a dual GPU video card that’s using AMD GPUs. The card in question is surprisingly based on two Tahiti XT GPUs and thus it is actually ASUS’ own AMD Radeon 7990 version.

This could also be a dual AMD Radeon HD 7970 video card as there are many clues that point towards the fact that AMD’s dual Tahiti implementation will likely have a different setup, frequencies and TDP than a Radeon HD 7970 X2.
