    Well for the money you had to outlay, I should hope dual 295s would keep you going for a while :eek:

    Why? It may do well with acres of screen real estate, but it's not really showing the true potential of the setup, although having the crosshairs in a shooter straddling a screen bezel truly wouldn't be great :/

    EVE Online wouldve been pretty cool, maybe Assassins Creed would benefit alot too?

    Anyway, it's nearly 1am in the UK, any chance of any leaks before I have to sleep?

    Well the performance would not be so great on other games such as assassins creed and how big a fail for them would it be to demo a game failing to be playable.
    Also there is a massive amount of warcraft players in the world that are about to get wet in the pants and buy there card.

    It's probably because ATi knows that A LOT of people play WoW and that's their primary target to trick with advertisement, hence AMD says consumers are technology illiterate .
