GTX580: Which brands allow voltage tweak?

[Riot Now]

Hi there,

I'm thinking about buying a Nvidia GTX 580 and I wonder which cards will allow to change the voltage of the GPU?

I've seen that ASUS has that "Voltage Tweak" Logo on the Box of the ASUS ENGTX580/2DI.

Any other Brands? All of them? How about EVGA? Your Experiences? Maybe you can point me to some URL?

I've read quite a few reviews, but they often don't mention about the voltage tweaking and on some cards I can't

find anything.

Do I have to look for the reference PCB-Layout? Because in later Versions the voltage regulators are often changed

for cheap / no tweaky tweaky ones?

Any help would be great!

Thanx in advance!

You can change EVGA cards using the latest Afterburner

MSI's Twin Frozr cards support 'Over Voltage' in afterburner. Not sure if that can happen outside afterburner or not though, depends on how you plan to overclock.

I would go EVGA as they allow you to overclock them and change the stock heatsinks without voiding the warranty ( WIN WIN situation)

i would say go with a msi because it seems everybody uses afterburner to do it so might as well use one of their cards might even be more stable or something

MSI Afterburner just uses Rivatuner with a skin, not REALLY anything speacial for MSI iirc

Yeah it does but i tried it on my gainward gtx 260 goldensample and could not change it so thought msi cars might of been better lol can you do it by just using riva tuner then ?
