MSI Lightning = crap. Good luck Splave. Dosn't like votage, dosn't like cold, Dosn't clock over 1200 and the memory won't do over 1150. I went at it face first yesterday. Meaning i just jumped right to the high clocks and voltage. that didnt work out at all.
Got things setted this am and just started from the bottm and worked it up. Without a cpu over clock. 1190 gpu @+300 was the best i could do @ -120. More voltage would just crash it. And only 1150 on the memory @+250. Again higher clocks r more voltage did no gd at all. The thing would freeze up around -130. I have all the switches setup as avised by photos and my friend Rom. Iwas benching Vantage (i fucking hate Vantage), 3D05 and Aquamark. Tried the 290.99 drivers first and they sucked big time. Went to the 258.96's and they wern't better fr score but were a bit more stable.

Among other things now that i've put OCZ freeze on the CPU i'm cold bugging at -150. And thats throwing another wrench in the works. 3hrs yesterday and 3 hrs today along with about 40L on juice. I'm goin back to my old cards for hardware boints. This things not gonna beat my reeference card at anything.
