It appears AMD has quitely dropped the price of their high-end Radeon HD 7990 graphics card to $700, cutting $300 off the $999 launch price. While this is still out of the price range of many gamers, the dual-GPU card becomes a much better deal up against offerings from Nvidia. As discovered by The Tech Report, the AMD Radeon HD 7990 is sellng for as low as $700 on Newegg; XFX's model is currently $699 after a $30 mail-in rebate. Other vendors are selling their cards for $730-$780, listing "special savings" as a "limited offer". The price cuts aren't just at Newegg. On Amazon some 7990s have also received the discount and are selling for as low as $730, although some cards remain at their original $999 price. When put up against Nvidia's dual-GPU offering, the GTX 690, the AMD Radeon HD 7990 has the same or better performance in games but now has a significant advantage in price. The GTX 690 is selling for $999 as is its single-GPU brother, the GTX Titan, meaning you can grab the 7990 for up to $300 less. Read more here --> techspot.com
