7970 Lightning

Hopefully you can get it up to 1367 mhz, like Guru3d did for the Asus GTX 680 DCuII TOP. Actually, a couple of sites have had disappointing overclock results for the 7970 Lightning at least in terms of what it promises:

"The reality remains that the ASUS GeForce GTX 680 DirectCU II TOP edition is now the fastest retail GeForce GTX 680 we tested to date. While doing it's magic it remains absolutely silent. " - Source: http://www.guru3d.com/article/asus-geforce-gtx-680-asus-directcu-ii-top-review/26

I am absolutely impressed by this review. It's to be expected that ASUS made another awesome product, but the benchmarks in this review show just how powerful this card is. It's literally equaling the performance of my SLI'd 570s with a single card and their test bed is 700MHz slower, with slower RAM. I trust the information from Guru3d, so I'm very excited about this release. The memory overclockability is exactly what I am looking for....

I've been trying to convince myself to wait for the GK110, but I think I'll be picking up a pair of these cards instead. Let's hope we see them in retailers soon! Very excited!!!

It's the fastest GTX 680 and the most overclockable, while also being the quietest and coolest.

At least so far.....

It's time to put this photoshopping business to rest.
