Jon, what a "Perkele" great score

[Eeky NoX]

Well done Jonas ...keep on pushing like that

[muskel]

excellent performance from that 480! well done!

[elmor]

Thanks! When I get some time and LN2 I'll try some 03, it's alot harder due to lower load (more coldrelated issues). There has to be more Lightning samples that can do similar frequency and Gigabyte is launching their GTX 480 SOC so I'm not so sure this score will prevail for very long.

would you mind to lend me your MSI lightning

Hi Guys,

Been spending the weekend with my friend Coldest, benching the GTX480 Lightning.

Honestly, this VGA gave me the headache, I need to spend about 45L just to get the Vantage run done(and since my dewar is only 15L, that means 3x refilling, the LN2 factory itself was about 35Km from our place)

Sometimes the VGA just feels 'right', and can bench at 1300++, but sometimes I can't even click 'apply' on the afterburner with GPU clock 1350+.

Well, finally got the lucky run with 1400Mhz GPU (I guess there's still potential left, but I haven't got money to buy anymore LN2 )

And Thanks to Elmor a.k.a 'Mr Event' to teach us the 'proper' way to bench GTX480 Lightning

* The CPU is VERY CRAPPY btw, just barely made it Vantage with 5.4Ghz, CBB -110, CB -115 *

Nice score.

Nice one, I knew there were good ones out there The card is really hard to bench as you say, takes alot of patience.

Now if only we could buy these suckers

[pcaddict]

So this card dont have stock pcb? Any waterblocks avaible? ;___;

I don't think the extra juice comparing to the stock PCB will give you any benefit for ambient cooling.

i think no where for now, i asked in europe, taiwan it's not in stock

another 1.4 GHz nice run Lucky

[Splave]

what AB version are you guys using? the beta xtremes no longer work for me only the official 2.00
1150/1250 1.3v -120c, maxed the sliders earlier was a waste of ln2

For cryin' out loud, that's a 100% OC on the gpu

They've made the Extreme-version time limited. Ask for a new version or just set your date to an earlier one

you got it

Got good info because of you.
Thanks bro

Thanks bro

mine is a failure, or i am could be either really

will run 1150 core all day from -80c to -180c @ +200v but anything higher is no good, tryed up to +350v with no change in stability. Kept PCB slightly warm to touch by the bracket back switches and prodalizer no frost on card at all still nothing. Oh well, am I allowed to sell this before release? This is my 10th fail session with it



Elmor or luckyn00b if you have the time would you be willing to test my card and see if some of these are really 300mhz better than others or if its my technique?
Id hate to have another lightning 5870 fiasco go down.
