    Terrible card. Nvidia really messed up. Doesn't overclock, performs worse than GTX570 SLI.

    I would take the 6990 over this any day. Is about £40 cheaper, performs better and you can actually overclock it.



    A very mild overclock.

    What did they look like? Ships? Motorcycles? Were the circuits like freeways?

    They are the same chips as the 580, but downclocked heavily to control the thermals and power draw. If you try to overclock it much, the above video happens :P.

    Nope. There was a rumor that they were making a 2nd revision of the card but this turned out to be fake.

    a couple of our suppliers have them but I'm not sure if we should stock them tbh.
    We can get Asus ones IIRC.
