Just look at HW Bot. MSI lightning 580 ruled the roost, period, nearly all the world records. 580 classifieds weren't guaranteed to hit 1ghz, although some did some didn't i'm sure, probably not worth the tradeoff with the LOUD blower fan that the 580 classified used.

Xoleras I think you're being a bit too hard on the classys. Maybe not as good as the lightning and maybe even overpriced but no doubt it will be an awesome card. I think it's silly they are using a reference fan but I guess their thinking is likely that the person buying this card is going to be putting it under water or better cooling.

Oh I see you're right. Looks exactly like the evga signature reference design. In fact it looks the exact same as the 670 in my PC.

It's the same as the signature except that the pcb is taller, the shroud is taller and the fan is bigger. Looks the same though
