Yes! And no!!

Black instead of silver shroud! thumb.gif
But why does the blue one have to be a 7870?? sad-smiley-002.gif I'd be all over it if it were a 7900-series.

I don't think he was referring to DCII in general but the faulty problem with i believe only 7950 DCII's but may have been a few 7970 DCII's as well, although i'm not sure.

That problem only effected the 7950. If he is referring to DCII being a fail, well at least it cools/quieter better then the Lightning for most of the cards

Doubtful. They are good cards. 3 slots or not.

A lot of ppl are having problems with both 7950 and 7970. It's a fail to release your halo cards in this condition.

That's probably why MSI held off on releasing the Lightning until they got all the kinks worked out....

I can't remember if the stock clocks for the MSI Lightning have been posted or not, but I found this in a video about the MSI Lightning.
