2 GPUs in forthcoming AMD's Southern Island based on PCI 3.0 ?

It might work in only one PCI 3.0 slot (being two time faster) with 2 old die shrink processors in 28 nm on a single graphic cards. Consumption will be not 294W, but lower. Likely in the range of 175W. Launch in Q3 , probably October/November this year.
MSI's PCI Express 3.0 supported motherboards are expected to launch in the third quarter of this year

The code names of AMD's upcoming Southern Islands GPUs, which will power the company's next generation Radeon HD 7000 video cards, have just been leaked to reveal that the product family will be comprised of at least four different graphics cores. What about triple slots PCI 3.0 use?

The four GPUs that were listed in the changelog of the HWiNFO32 v3.73 tool (the application is available for download here) are called Tahiti, New Zealand, Thames and Lombok.
