Introduction - Quad-GPU Performance Review NVIDIA vs. AMD | [H]ard|OCP
Wanting to achieve the best gameplay experience possible is a worthy goal for hardware enthusiasts that play video games. Enthusiasts try to obtain this by taking what they have and pushing the hardware to its limits in order to squeeze out every bit of performance the hardware is capable of. For gamers on a budget, or those looking for the best value, or bang for the buck, these type of tweaks provide performance improvements resulting in a better gaming experience for "free."

What if money wasn't a concern? What if you wanted to plop down all the cash that is required to own the best possible performing video card configuration for gaming with no tweaking? There would only be two options right now that would give you the best possible performance, and that is a Quad-GPU configuration from NVIDIA or AMD. While most gamers enjoy performance with one GPU, sometimes it just isn't enough. NVIDIA's and AMD's solution to this problem is to throw more GPUs at you and hope it does what you need.

Is this supposed to show that the 6990 is the best card out there?
 
Actually it is, but AMD's drivers suck ass and I won't be buying another AMD card for a while because of that. I got rid of my 5970 because I couldn't stand how glitchy their "stable" drivers were.

Agreed, I have my 5870's but I really don't enjoy the driver's. When they release a new driver I get it and my system black screens all the time saying "ATI driver's have failed" which bothers me so really your not getting the "newest" driver your getting the old one but its new because you couldn't use it at first.
