Hey guys,

I might just have bought myself this amazing card for only €200 W00T ??

I'm out of money tho and i only got a 500W psu, but it should be Ok,

thing is I've got only 1 8pin, but the "normal" lightning comes with a 6 to 8 pin as they are pretty much identical accept for the ground.

Just asking if you see any problems with this.

Also i'm still on a quad core athlon so it might bottleneck

How the hell did you get it for 200 euros?!?

It's not sure yet, but i just typed gtx 580 on a local auction site, sent the guy a mail and he seems to want only 200.

even if it doesn't work, i'll be happy

Just checking it's not stolen or anything now
 
I would be very wary though as they cost like edit - £500 new!

are you picking it up or getting it delivered?
 
so are you picking it up? or are you having second thoughts?

I'm driving over to pick it up, but the guy hasn't replied to my last mail

maybe just a dream not coming true and me having to play crysis 2 on something else than ultra this monday :'(

main problem is i'm out of the country in 2 days so it has to go really quick since i'm probably not the only one intrested

Could be a scammer, ran into one of those when searching for a cheap PS3. Found one dirt cheap in my neighbourhood but when I said I was going to pick it up they stopped replying to my emails. I hope this isn't the case here though, it'd be an epic deal for you :'D

well i asked for pics earlier on and he did send me some so i guess thats good.

I just hope i get a reply real quick now, i'd love to go and pick it up tonight.

Still worried about my psu but i'll just put my cpu on stock clocks and i'll be good i hope

Hi Guys,

i was just about to purchase myself one of these cards in the 3gb version but i noticed something weird with the Australian Spec version. What i initially thought was a typo on a local Australian resellers website turned out to be true, from the MSI website :

http://www.msi.com/product/vga/N580GTX-Lightning-Xtreme-Edition.html#?div=Specification

Core Clock Speed(MHz) 832 (772MHz AUS Only)

Memory Clock Speed(MHz) 4200 (4008MHz AUS Only)

Can anyone think of why they would down-clock the Australian version ? I'm not too fussed as i know with a little bit of tweaking this can easily hit the global clock speeds, it was just something curious that had me interested.....any ideas anyone ?
