Cherry picked GPU's mate. Its not proper, its practically gone through xfactor selection.
Doesnt the lightning still have some of its hardware locked?
Cooler wise it seems to be spot on but the 580 has all of its architecture unlocked.
Two posts above, Palit GTX 580 factory overclocked :-D

whoa, long time no see Rasta. Im a happy man I won £50.
?? been probably posting 1ce or 2ce a week for a fair while mate.
Granted I got to spend a whole load of time on engineers' sites, I don't get much time to do public stuff.

From your review and I completely and totally agree with you. Had Nvidia taken some ideas from the 480L onboard? then the 580 would be better. It would be quieter and cooler. So yes, the 580 is what the 480 should have been. But then so was the 480L.

What are these cards? 6 series Radeons?
Maybe my posts are written in the same blue as the background, but I don't thinks so...
Postet a link to a german page ( sry 4 that ) that sells a PALIT with 835MHz Core,
1.670MHz shader and 2.100MHz ram-clock...
LINK AGAIN
What are these cards? 6 series Radeons?That is soooo lame. 27 mhz... ROFL. I wonder if it's this throttling thing? In which case that will be all you'll get. Has any one found any reviews where they were able to be clocked higher?
Yup.. Just finished reading Hardware Canucks review and they say that the card didn't go over 70 degrees full load while folding.
Also for the overclock they hit ummm *checks*
Core Speed: 902Mhz
Processor Clock: 1804Mhz
Memory Speed: 4408Mhz (QDR)
Yeah but you get into that whole area of 1 card is better than 2.

So those clocks may well be an illusion. My Hyundai Tiburon used to have 150mph on the clock. Fact was out of the factory it couldn't do more than about 120.
I used to have a 5900 Ultra. I read about how my card was identical to a 5950 ultra and all you needed to do was flash the bios. However, what I didn't bank on was the auto throttle kicking in at certain temps and downclocking my card making it slower because the cooling couldn't keep it cool enough to go as fast as the 5950u could.
As I say I guess it's a case of waiting to see. Apparently they did it to stop people seeing how hot the card can get in Furmark. Probably because people did that first to the 480 GTX and were absolutely alarmed and disgusted at the temps.
Tom said the card has been cut down (I'm sure that's what he said). And this is why I am absolutely desperate to see what the card really does.
Is hardware canucks the one ran by the bald American dude who reviews things in his kitchen and fits 24gb of ram to his gaming PC?
Cowards.
Note the above. They have added throttling. So whilst the 580 offers more it may well offer less when pushed hard. They're quite crafty with that. Furmark uses a GPU 100%. Thus, it shows you the absolute maximum power draw the card can perform. However, overclocking and over volting a card will also push the power draw up considerably. So whilst the 580 does perform very well out of the box there may not be an awful lot left in it. Where as with the Lightning the sky is the limit sort of

Even if some one had known the answer to that then it would probably be a different answer now any way.
From what I heard the 69 series were coming in time for Christmas. This gives them about 7 weeks to look over the 580 and adjust their cards accordingly. Let's face it, they're definitely not about to release a slower card.
When Nvidia originally sent out Beta versions of the 480 it was slower and cooler than the actual one that was released. However, they realised it was slower than the 5870 and that would have been a foolish release to make.
So yeah, I would imagine the 6970 will beat it. And the 6990 will be a force unto itself
