Product Overview Based on AMD "Antilles" GPU architecture, the HD 6990 offers hard-core PC gamers and DIY PC builders the fastest dual core graphics card ever produced using AMD technology.

The HD 6990 holds a massive 4GB of GDDR5 video memory surpassing anything previously deployed in the "Northern Islands" series. This provides games and other applications with extra room to produce massively enhanced visuals. The huge memory also provides DirectX™ 11 tessellation operations with the room to provide high quality textures even when there is a great demand on resources.

The ASUS HD 6990 comes with the engine clock at 830MHz and ASUS Exclusive Voltage Tweak, over-volting utility, allowing users to push clock speeds to as much as 50%* extra with the help of adequate cooling. Furthermore, with ASUS exclusive Voltage Tweak, this card can be pushed to run at up to 1245 MHz* for optimal sheer gaming performance.

The HD 6990 is a true power house, using dual HD 6970 cores on one printed circuit board, doubling the power whilst maintaining streamlined energy draw requirements. The two cores run in 2-way CrossFireX™ engaged by default on one board, eliminating inter-GPU latency and ensuring the fastest possible performance with the most bandwidth ever achieved on a single-board AMD-based card. Two HD 6990 cards can also be put together for instant quad CrossFireX™.

In addition, AMD Eyefinity™ multi-screen technology enables the driving of up to five monitors via a single HD 6990. This card also supports AMD HD3D™ technology for 3D gaming and movie watching on a compatible TV or monitor.

*Actual performance may vary based on system configuration and other prevailing conditions. Features • Voltage Tweak: to crank up performance by 50%.
• EMI Shield: Effectively blocks 66% radiations to protect user's health and improve graphics clarity.
• Gigantic 4GB GDDR5 Memory: for the best resolution and gaming experience
• Microsoft Windows 7 Support: Enable PC users to enjoy an advanced computing experience.
• DirectX 11 Ready: Bring new levels of visual realism to gaming.
• CrossfireX Support: Multi GPU Technology for Extreme performance.
• AMD HD3D Technology: Optimize stereoscopic 3D gaming and movie-watching entertainment.

Buying Guide

AMD Radeon HD 6990
Date Issued: 15th Mar 2011

AMD and NVIDIA totally dominate the market for discrete graphics cards - ones you plug into a motherboard for increased performance when playing games. The two companies are locked in a perennial battle for technology leadership at price points ranging from £40 through to £550. The previous two years has seen AMD eke out a small technology lead over its rival

Graphics Card Outputs
Date Issued: 8th Oct 2010

Modern desktop computers and notebooks comprise of a CPU, motherboard, graphics, storage, and, usually an optical drive. Computers have a number of ports and sockets that enable the user to plug-in various peripherals such as a printer, USB mouse, or, perhaps most importantly of all, an Internet connection.

AMD Eyefinity
Date Issued: 6th Oct 2010

Have you ever felt like you've run out of space on your desktop? Do you ever get sick of 'alt-tabbing' between multiple windows just to try and find the program that you're looking for? Unfortunately, even high-resolution monitors don't always have enough space to let you get everything done. That's where multi-monitor systems come into play, and nothing makes that easier than AMD's Eyefinity.

HDMI
Date Issued: 3rd Dec 2008

Keeping in tandem with technological developments, audio/video connectors continue to evolve at a steady pace. Today, the most common digital connector comes in the form of HDMI and we're here to tell you what it is, what it does, and why you might need it.

Blu-ray
Date Issued: 3rd Dec 2008

Blu-ray Disc is now widely regarded as the physical successor to DVD, we take a closer look at what it is, what advantages it brings, and what it could mean to you.

Graphics
Date Issued: 21st Oct 2008

Explaining how a modern GPU works in completeness would take a book. Or two. Per class of chip. Per vendor. They're extraordinarily complex pieces of engineering and production, and the end result contains more transistors than multiple modern x86 processors.

PCI Express
Date Issued: 20th Oct 2008

A motherboard’s main job is to act as a conduit between the various hardware elements that make up a PC. It needs to be able to link the desired CPU(s), system memory, graphics card, hard drive(s), and add-in cards and enable them to work in harmony.

Multi-GPUs
Date Issued: 20th Oct 2008

If you’re the least bit interested in graphics cards, we’re sure that you’ve heard the terms SLI and CrossFire bandied about recently. Touted as a means of achieving maximum 3D performance by, effectively, using two or more graphics cards in tandem, multi-GPU technology is here to stay. With that in mind, let’s take a closer look SLI and CrossFire; the two competing multi-GPU solutions from NVIDIA and ATI Technologies, respectively.

GPU Antialiasing
Date Issued: 20th Oct 2008

This TekSpek will assume you know the affects of applying a level of anti-aliasing (AA) on your 3D accelerator, be it via the driver control panel or via a control in your game. We assume you know the effect it has on image quality, so you can think about a before and after scenario. So this TekSpek isn’t about explaining what it does as such, although it will, it’s about explaining the how and why.

HDTV 720/1080
Date Issued: 14th Jun 2008

Whether the broadcasters are going HD or not, TV sets and projectors are arriving thick and fast which claim to support higher resolutions than regular telly. But HDTV is far from just one standard – it incorporates a couple of different resolutions, two different scanning modes, and a number of different frame rates. In this article, we present a guide to what all the terms actually mean.

DVI/HDMI/HDCP
Date Issued: 14th Jun 2008

There’s a lot more to High Definition than just having the ability to run your screen at the right resolution. With more than one type of connection available, and the thorny subject of signal encryption to contend with, just because your monitor and graphics are capable of 1,920 x 1,080 or better does not necessarily mean they will be able to display HDTV in all its glory.
