The 7970 Lightning doesn't have dual link DVI because MSI was trying to support 6 monitors with it....

I will be buying this if it has unlocked voltage. I would have bought the classified but you need the dumb bot thing.

If voltage is still locked I will wait for the next round of GPUs and see what AMD and Nvidia end up coming out with.

Yeah I agree, that would be the only thing that would make me want one of the new msi cards (670triple volt or 680 lightning), otherwise im super happy with the gtx 670 line on my lone 1080p. I just hope it hangs when I go 2560x1440

Yeah I've tried my card on my 1600p monitor and it's just a bit weak. I have it hooked up to a 1080p big screen though and it's the perfect amount of GPU power for it. If Nvidia continues along the way they are with the voltage my next card to replace my 480sli/1600p set up will likely be Radeons. Unless of course they blow AMD out of the water.

Speak of the devil it appears the Hawk and power edition cards made their way onto tiger direct today.
MSI 7850 Power edition: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2886170&CatId=7387 $289
MSI 7870 Hawk: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2886171&CatId=7387 $379

You can pick them up from amazon through tiger direct. No sight of the 670 power edition or official announcement of the 680 lighting.

Ok so your guess is 1-2 months until they are available to buy ? If it is that, OMG, i can't wait that much, it will pass the whole summer and i don't have a gpu. I am waiting for the DirectCU II GTX680 as well, seems that card is available in all europe in stocks, but only in my country, isn't. So what do you think ? Should i wait for the Lightning or DirectCU II ? Which is better in terms of PCB and electronic.
