Would love another Lightning for SLI, but system would be slightly;) crippled without the RevoDrive3 X2. A second lightning would be right on top of the Revo.

i vote for frequency because offset is bit less definite.

That said, guys, when you report your frequency, we need a screen shot of your finished benchmark AND afterburner graph with your cursor hovering over the max boost freq.
