And considering one single card could be up to 375w (75 + 150 +150), 525 isn't unreasonable.
Still utterly silly for any normal person, two 7950s clocked will perform just as well and cost half as much.

I just bought four;
Overclockers was taking too long deciding whether to maybe possibly make some watercooled 7990s with HIS, so we just got some custom copper/nickel heatsinks made up for the Powercolors. Currently testing with the original air coolers, will be mounting the waterblocks for 8-GPU overclocked testing next week;
Host machine has dual overclocked 8-core Xeons, 128 GB DDR3-1600, quad SSDs (Kingston MAX-IOPS in RAID0), 3 x 4 TB HDDs in RAID5 for bulk storage, dual 10 Gigabit ethernet, touch-screen system management panel on the front, dual 1200W PSUs, dual pumps, quad triple-fan rads etc.
Initial testing has confirmed that AMD has finally fixed the 'can't disable Crossfire on dual-GPU cards' bug that rendered the 5970 and 6990 paperweights for OpenCL purposes. Currently seeing 90%+ scaling on OpenCL apps over two GPUs, will be getting 8-way scaling numbers next week.

Rubbish score. The 690 smashes that up by miles

And that is the worst cable management ever!!!

The fourth 7990 is in the machine being tested. There are a couple of different 7970s on the side there, which were previously in the machine being soak tested for bit error rates at various mem clocks.
That machine is a testbed, we've had a lot of different hardware installed in it, so the cabling and watercooling gets moved around a lot. The 7990s are going into a similar chasis but with permenantly installed cabling and tubing.

I was poking fun bud 
With the amount of in and outs you have, I wouldn't expect it to be tidy yet. Full pics when doen though please
Awsome set up

This is why three slot coolers are a bad idea;
The Devil 13 brackets are custom and pretty much integral to the card, so I'm going to have to truncate them with the bandsaw before mounting the waterblocks.
Had to remove the backplates to physically fit the top card into the slot; the clearance on the ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS is very tight. Will mount individual passive heatsinks on the rear memory chips. Seems a shame to throw away all this carefully engineered copper and aluminium, but alas Powercolor didn't want to ship bare cards;
