MSI GeForce GTX 480 Lightning review

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 11/03/2010 12:17 PM | source: | 0 comment(s)

We review the MSI GeForce GTX 480 Lightning. This series graphics cards have, from ground up, a custom board design. I mean literally; the only thing original on that graphics card is the GPU from AMD or in today's review, NVIDIA.

And even at GPU level MSI tries to tweak a little by applying a factory overclock on it. We spot a custom PCB, specific component usage, a bucket load of VRM phases and Twin Frozr cooling.

This Mc Daddy of graphics cards, currently that is :)

Check out the full review right here.
