Depending on your point of view, the NV 3DS SLI requirement is either boon or bust. Some people view it as a limiting factor as it requires two cards and an SLI motherboard. Others view it positively as the SLI requirement ensures you have significant horsepower.

AMD is finally releasing their Dual-GPU AMD Radeon 6990 "Antilles" card. As I had surmized, this card fills the shoes of both the Dual-GPU and the Eyefinity 6 (well, Eyefinity 5) markets. Previously the Dual-GPU market was serviced by the ATI Radeon HD 5970 (which only had one 1GB of VRAM per GPU) and the Eyefinity5 market was serviced by the ATI Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity6 Edition (which had 2GB of VRAM, but only one GPU).
In my mind, this merging of niche markets (niche within a niche, actually) makes sense. Not all Dual-GPU owners will utilize more than three screens in their Eyefinity setup. However, it is these "Ultra-Enthusiast" users (as AMD segmented them in their HD 5800 series literature) that are most likely to be the early adopters and embrace modes beyond "traditional" Eyefinity.
No tricks, all nitro: make no mistake, Nail'd is all about the racing. Take your quad or bike over crazy jumps and around obstacles through branching off-road tracks. Steer in mid-air and try to land on all wheels (or better yet on an unsuspecting opponent) for a boost bonus. Throw in mutators: infinite boost and/or Trackmania-like no-collision mode for even more hi-speed chaos. Nail'd features a solo championship, free race, LAN & online multiplayer, leaderboards and achievements.

"DCS: A-10C Warthog" is a PC simulation of the U.S. premier Close Air Support attack aircraft. This is the second aircraft in the DCS series, following DCS: Black Shark, and raises the bar even higher in the DCS series. Warthog brings the most realistic PC simulation of a modern fixed wing combat aircraft in regards to flight dynamics, avionics, sensors, and weapon systems. You also have the option to play Warthog in "Game" mode for a casual game experience.
Just posted a quick unboxing video of the AMD Radeon HD 6990 "Antilles" Dual-GPU GFX card I received in the mail today. It came in a cool little metal briefcase.
HardOCP was fortunate enough to get a preview Radeon HD 6990 "Antilles", and was able to provide a sneak peak. While I'm quite jealous that we didn't get a preview card, this does bode well for review samples coming soon.
