To think a few months ago you could have gotten a pair of 7970s for $1100.I'm betting there are a lot of sad AMD fans out there. Their viral marketing group in the forums is going to have a rough year for sure.

I doubt anyone that places happiness in their preferred companies products being #1 is all too happy to begin with ;)RampantAndroid - Tuesday, May 15, 2012 - link
Sure, but realizing that waiting a few months could have saved them serious $$$.Same probably goes for GTX680 owners.

The partners of nVidia are going to be happy, because what comes out of the 680 and 670 is an auto overclock and an overclockable card, with locks on power increases, and therefore far, far less chance of anything burning out.Overclock to your hearts desire - you won't be burning these up while the amd cards will still be a housefire and cost the partners plenty to replace.
nVidia's partners are very, very happy.
