A couple of weeks ago we reviewed this literally hot new Black Edition product from MSI product already, yet our conclusion was somewhat spicy related to temperature and noise levels we had seen on the GTX260 Lightning graphics card.

MSI was absolutely convinced we had received a defective card and submitted a new one with the question if we wanted to have second go at it. So we did, and it certainly made a massive difference. Temperatures of this graphics card are now over 30 Degrees C lower and the noise levels fine.

So today we bring you a review in the MSI GeForce N260GTX Lightning 1792 MB, but then revised and revisited !

What is the GeForce N260GTX Lightning 1792 MB ? Well, it's a graphics card with twice the standard GeForce GTX 260 GDDR3 memory summing up to an incredible 1792 MB, it utilizes a Twin Frozr cooling with heatpipes, dual slot heatsink and two big fans. The card design is Phase PWM, with 8 phases are reserved for the GPU and 2 phases for the memory. Furthermore, this graphics card has important overclocking features like V-Check points to measure the voltage.
