Question,

is the backplate badge removable, seems this would be in the way for SLI and tri SLI using every other slot as some boards force you to and sometimes have to slide a soundcard between them

Thanks

Shaders: high
Textures: high
Filter: trilinear
Anisotropy: 16X
Occulsion: enabled
Refraction: enabled
Volumetric: enabled
Tessellation: extreme
preferably at the lightning's factory clocks, as well as your best stable OC.
i'd like to compare performance against my MSI 670 PE OC
Thanks

What CPU are you using and at what speed? Just so I know to set mine accordingly for the best comparrison.

For whatever reason the Heaven scores are really low compared to other 680's. Mine did 49fps and this was with card boosting to 1215 out of the box. Both my GB 670 and 680 had higher fps with lower clocks and older drivers.

What gives?

I just ran Heaven maxed for DrBoss's comparrison at stock and did 49.7fps. So, your score really isn't too far off. What is your CPU running at?

They are removable, but they cover a little PCB that is also removable. My MB allows 2-way SLI with the covers on, as the first two PCI-E slots are double spaced, but I don't see how I'd ever get any other PCI/PCI-E cards in there. MSI Z77A-GD65 mobo, FWIW.
