Post will be updated once more reviews are available.
Note:
Earlier drivers don't seem to allow for any control of PowerTune from CCC. It appears that driver support for that seem to start with Catalyst 8.79.6.2 RC2
Edit 2:
2 Observations so far.
1. EQAA seems to be AMD's version of CSAA. So IMO would be worth using over MSAA for a performance boost.
2. Powertuner doesn't seem to help at stock clocks. I'm guessing there maybe something there if the card is over clocked but I've not come across any reviews showing this yet.
