    lol

    Anyway is there temp readings for ram and vrm now as was planned(pics at cbet) or no?

    if like other msi lighting/hawk,voltages you can use nvi for max then add +200mv with ab enough for starters 1.4v+depending on vid.

    nice scores, surely, but what about liquid cooling with this kind of cards?! .... do they exist? mmmhh... btw my 580 can easily reach 980mhz (on liquid cooling with max stress temp of 39 C°), wich is not so far from 1ghz / 1010 of this MSI lightining...

    I just ran some 3DMark 11 for now 980 MHz @ 1.18V is Stable.

    It seems to be a golden Card what OC_Windforce got

    Yes, I think most of the reviewers got golden samples. It's hard to beat DCU II, so aditional binning is required

    well ok very good but its not much better.

    Since some of us will use this for a daily card when not under cold. i was wondering if the temp monitoring is going to be expanded to vrm and ram as this sign from cebit says
    tri temp monitoring


    i think its under nda atm so thanks anyway

    I know I want this card but I'm not willing to pay much of a premium over the Direct CU II. Maybe the customary premium for "factory overclock". The main advantage for me over the Asus is the fact that it's dual slot.

    MSI Lightnings have always had crap availability in the UK.

    Does this Lightning version or the Direct CUII achieve higher 24/7 overclocks?
