FUD Zilla claims AMD is working on "Malta", a new dual-GPU card that will feature two Radeon HD 7970 GPUs clocked at "well over 1GHz".
We have heard from multiple sources now that AMD is working on a card codenamed Malta. The Malta is a dual-chip card and we are not sure if it is based on Tahiti like HD 7990 cards. The Malta card should have a clock well over 1GHz and should become the fastest offering from AMD. It should also be available to more than a few partners.

This card should come in the next few months but some of our sources do indicate that the card will launch soon. AMD probably wants to see the real world performance of Nvidia’s Geforce Titan and then follow up with its new card.
You can expect this card sometime in the first half of 2013.
