PowerColor Devil13 HD7990 Review
3D Mark

3D Mark Vantage
There are two obvious comparisons for the Devil13, the nVidia GTX690 and our HD7970CF setup. To be fair, in 3D Mark Vantage, it doesn't matter what you're comparing it against as the Devil13 is the fastest card we've tested. Only the SLI GTX690 beats it, and even then not by as much as you'd expect.
3D Mark 11
We're right on a par with the GTX690 at stock, and the moment the overclock comes in the Devil13 once again strolls off to the top of the charts. In benchmark terms it's frankly insane.

Jesus, that thing is unbelievable.
Still better off with 2 670s/7970s/7950s though.

CF with a 2nd card and get back to us! 
Well it really did set the cat amoungst the pigeons!
Nice card I guess but I have to admit these custom designed cards turn me off due to the difficulty in getting a water block for them. It feels like a card with a very limited market because the people who have the money and will to purchase such an obviously high end card are going to be the same people who water cool which would obviously limit its success in the market.
I wonder if they are partnering with EK or Swiftech to get a block for this thing? I don't know too much about it admittedly.

good for power color! innovative and thinking outside the box. if the namesake
will not build a card, then so be it, they will. i was really meah.. until the afterburner
overclock and now thats what i think it should have come out of the box. not that
one couldn't do the same, but if left to the suppliers tool for performance, the
buyer would have been a lil sore. leaving a 20% performance gain on the table
at high end cost makes it better, but that should have already been binned for
customer appreciation.
really cool stuff from power color.. keep it up, 'cuz it looks like they are on their own
airdeano

I really don't like the look of triple slot coolers.

Only on price. Performance wise you need to go back and check the review / video

Also a 3D Mark 11 performance score. Although I'm not sure of the Devil's graphics score (can't read it from the video) and I'm running on a 3570K so the physics score significantly reduces the Pscore.
Great bit of engineering.
I question paying massive amounts of cash on cards that don't do 'everything' tho, mean not 'all the bells and whistles'.

epeen card. Bit of the old exclusivity. Lol. Would be waaaay too loud for my liking though.
Glad you pointed out the frankly glaring error with logo/ backplate writing. Those are the kind of things that would put me off purchasing things in all honesty. (If i wasn't already such a silence freak).

it looks awesome, takes 3 8pin pcie connectors, takes up 3 slots and performs amazingly. great job powercolor
I was thinking of buying one of theese cards but i'm in kind of a dilemma because i all so like the idea of 2 Asus 7970 that are watercooled.
So i need you guys to help me decide which one that i should pick?
