MSI GTX 780 Lightning Lite Edition Card Photo's and Specs

MSI GTX 780 Lightning Lite Edition Card Photo's and Specs

MSI is showing photo's of an upcoming card called the MSI GTX 780 Lightning Lite Edition. The LE model comes with 889/941 MHz Base/Boost GPU clocks compared to the regular GTX 780 Lightning at 980/1033 MHz. Tthe 780 is making use of the GK110-300-A2 GPU which is packed with 2,304 cores, 192 TMUs and 48 ROPs.

The GTX 780 Lightning LE also has Military Class components, a 10-layer PCB, a GPU Reactor for improved overclocking stability, a TriFrozr cooler, Pure Digital PWM Control, Twin BIOS, a 16+3 phase power design, and the 'usual' - 2304 CUDA Cores, 3 GB of GDDR5 memory set to 6008 MHz, and dual-DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort output. 

The one thing that you really can't miss out on is the new design cooler, now known as the TriFrozr it features a total of three fans. Two of the fans to the left and right are large 86mm black fans, while a smaller yellow 70mm fan rests right in the middle. The yellow fan also has a somewhat denser fin arrangement. The fans can be programmed independent from each other. For the heatsink itself MSI is using a large dual fin-stack heatsink connected to seven 8 mm-thick heat pipes. The GPU is connected towards 7 GT/s Elpida-branded memory chips for its framebuffer. Interesting is that the card will also have three BIOSes. One functions as a failsafe (with reference firmware), the secondary BIOS is used as stock factory OC BIOS, and one BIOS is an LN2 BIOS for liquid-nitrogen cooling based overclocking.

I hope it comes with a Lite price tag as well.

I wonder how it will perform compared to a 770.

It's been available in the UK for weeks about £30 cheaper than the normal lightning. Overclockers. co. uk /showproduct.php?prodid=GX-234-MS&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=1341

"...the Lightning is now EOL and they're no longer binning 780 GPUs, you're getting the Lightning PCB and cooler etc. but with a regular GPU to clear the stock."

Not the lightning I'm looking for

Where is the 780 TI Lightning, or at least a 4gb "extreme" edition? Options are nice though!
