    Its actually a bad name imo. The myth of the Gemini twins Castor and Pollux, fought another set of twins, Idas and Lynceus. Didferent myths say different thing but the basis is they fought over something, girls being the most popular. There are tons of ending but 2 popular ones.

    1. Castor and Pollux are over confident and are both killed in their fight. But being Zeus sons they rotate between heaven and hell.

    2. Castor is killed by Idas, but warns Pollux. Pollux spots Lynceus and kills him, as Idas and Pollux fight. Just as Idas was about to kill Pollux, Zeus intervenes saving Pollux (his son). Castor gives half his immortality to Pollux. This results in one twin being in hell while the other is in heaven and the two switch.

    Basically Gemini gets their ass beat by other twins and it results in a great sacrifice. Not exactly thw brst name when theyight have to fight 990x.

    The 990 will cost as much as a crown.

    I think AMD is all about water coolers now.
    However I am willing to bet this is just two R9 Nanos, so we may see a triple fan cooler.
     
    This may be a great buy for VR headset users.

    ASUS prepare ARES 4 than.
    I would kill for one card. 
     
    I don't understand one thing... People complain on coil whine on Fury X.
    They mean on coil whine on CM pump only or there are some cases with coil whine graphic cards.
    Because any person who want to Fury X except performance and look good will replace terrible sleeved tubes and pump.
    Than with EKWB block no coil whine any more and customer get one single slot watercooled graphic.
    If they install Fury X CF and example Phoebus among them people will see almost identical thickness.
    Fury X with water block is little thicker maybe.
    That new Dual card will cost lot on beginning maybe but when NVIDIA launch Pascal he will become very affordable card, same as R9-295X
    just little over Pascal or same.
