Think i am a go on one,my dcII is capped out at 1.4v.
I did think that the lightning would have a 120% powerlimit stock but only 109
that has to be dealt with pronto.

do you guys think this is worth upgrading to or should I stick with my 570 SLi? BTW running at 2560x1440 @96Hz. I was also thinking of waiting for new amd cards

Looks good, though I like the design on my 680s lightnings more. That beeing said I am looking forward for the "maxwell lightning", whenever that comes out. The performance boost is just not high enough for me to upgrade just yet.

As i posted in another thread, this cooler has a design flaw.
The Heatpipers of the Heatsink block the ability to blow air against the PCB.
I bet if it was more open it could drop the GPU Temp by a fair bit aswell.
