hbm1 cannot, its limited to 4gb, kinda kooky amd high end is 4gb and there mid high end 8gb. nvidia is going straight to hbm2 which will allow 8gb and more I guess.

Not need this card even in 1440p ? don't forget they start releasing 144hz screens in 1440p! 🙂

I just read up on the hmb1 and hbm2, I wish there was a utility that could benchmark vram. i'm curious to see the difference between gddr5 and hbm.

Forever as in HBM1. HBM2 will be here soon enough next year.
Yes.

We review the long anticipated and awaited MSI GeForce GTX 980 Ti Lightning edition. You'll retrieve up-to 1.3 Volts to play with on the GPU voltage range for example. This 6 GB card is overclocked... Review: MSI GeForce GTX 980 Ti Lightning
With that memory overclock, what memory bandwidth does that leave you with?:3eyes: Edit: 417GB/s correct?

HBM can't go over 4GB? I wasn't aware of that. I think I need to do some reading. 😀
it's for that AMD high end is 4gig and medium is 8gig... lol and it's for that NVidia will start with HBM2 without HBM1 tryout.

In theory a lot (4096 b Vs lot less), but right now not so much, but i suspect it is due to GPU (well... you know... 1st try... lol). Despite that, HBM technology is a nice step forward and we will see a lot of nice thing to come in the future.

I would have expected more on the core OC, but I guess it's meant for h2o/ln2 to get that. The looks are great, as always, the price well... 🙂

Exactly... Cooling solution might be great, the price still burns a hole in what's left of my wallet... 🙁

I have the MSI GTX 980 Ti Lightning and I have painted the whole card, backplate. I modded my whole computer in a black/White theme, is there anyone here who knows how to flash the cards bios to use White LED as default light instead of yellow? I know i can use mystic light but prefer not to.. Btw Hi ALL 🙂

First of all, Sorry to revive a very old thread. I am going to get a 2nd hand msi lightning soon . The thing is, In this review , hilbert could tinker with auxillary voltage and memory voltage with msi afterburner . Could i as an average joe get those options in regular msi afterburner? Or those are exclusive for only ABX?

Can't verify it anymore however it was implemented into AB, so unless it disappeared from the AB database there's no reason for it to not work. MSI is responsible for supplying the database entries on GPU/MEM/AUX support. Should you decide to go for it: if not visible try and select the extended MSI database. https://forums.guru3d.com/attachments/untitled-1-png.33/

Yep, it's all still available in AB v4.5 by selecting 'extended MSI' under 'unlock voltage control'.

For all custom design MSI cards with triple/quad voltage control support (MSI Hawk, Power Edition and Lightning series cards) memory and additional aux voltages are available with both "standard MSI" and "extended MSI" modes. For core voltage control on NVIDIA GPUs there is strict GPU vendor's requirement to use default NV's voltage limits in software in "out of box" configuration, so default core voltage adjustment range is used for default "standard MSI" mode and extended core voltage control range is available for "extended MSI" mode (that's the only difference between "standard MSI" and "extended MSI" modes and the only reason why both modes exist).
