    Default HIS coming up with a Radeon HD 7970 X2 Card

    PowerColor's HD7990 will soon have some competition as HIS (Hightech Information System) is also going to release a graphics card powered by two AMD Tahiti chips. Dubbed Radeon HD 7970 X2 (apparently HIS doesn't want to use '7990'), this new dual-GPU card features a three-slot, dual-fan cooler, three 8-pin PCIe power connectors, a Lucidlogix PCIe switch (the PowerColor HD7990 uses a PLX bridge), a GPU clock of 1050 MHz, and 6 GB of GDDR5 memory set to 6000 MHz.

    HIS' HD 7970 X2 also has dual-DVI and quad mini DisplayPort outputs. Pricing and availability are still unknown.

    Actually..........I do not think one of those cards we've received is dual-chip. HIS typically labels their high end cards with an "X2" moniker, but that doesn't refer to the number of GPUs. I will confirm, but I'm pretty sure it's a "regular" 7970.

    I can confirm all the HIS cards we're currently testing are single-GPU. That's not to say we won't try to get the dual-GPU version though
