yeah and shame on ati for having dx11 wtf is that?

my vapor-X both did 1000/1300 1.18v air
ASUS did 1100/1300 @ 1.38v air

For reference sake.

fugger and mike guava had good results with gb 5780 soc ....... i wonder if gb has better binning....sorry off topic..

you mean gauntlet sorting? lol Im not sure, im hoping a card designed like the lightning beats a card that just have binned chips but who knows.

they got the highest score in vantage....with a crappy 40nm cpu... but right now the battle is in the 2d race :D sorry uber topic derailment but i'm just chiming in some info almost related to it

The last 260 Giga SOC I had would not work with voltage software, and was a bastard to hardmod. I have not heard if the 5 series is compatible with software yet.

My lightning has arrived! :D

I waited to long. decided to sleep on it an when i woke up they were out. Now the expected date is the 23 wtf.

Dont forget about the MSI/AMD contest ends soon http://www.futuremark.com/community/...ilightning/?fm

You think since they got this contest going on they would have been able to get it to the public quicker an have enough supply. I wait till the 23 might as well wait for fermi but how long will it take to get to etailers.

Rock it bro. Mod time again?

hopefully no need!
mine came too, card is a tank and cooler is pretty damn hefty!

Air Testing
 

Confirmed what everyone might know already.

Card on air is a POS, I had better OC's with my $370 Asus HD5870. It maxed out around 1000/1250 1.30vgpu 22oC air temp on Vantage.

Only way to make this card shine is LN2 me thinks, not even DICE will 'arouse' her... :good:
