MSI Announces GTX 680 Lightning Graphics Card for Hardcore Overclockers

MSI has just announced the release of the GTX 680 Lightning (MKT Name: N680GTX Lightning), the new king of the graphics card world equipped with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 GPU. The GTX 680 utilizes proprietary Unlocked Digital Power architecture to unleash the full performance of the graphics card without any extra modifications. The innovative patented GPU Reactor power supply back plate also reduces power supply noise and improves overclocking stability.


The GTX 680 Lightning is kept cool by the Twin Frozr IV cooling solution with Dust Removal technology, dual temperature-controlled fans, and SuperPipe. When compared to the reference board, temperatures are reduced by 16 degrees centigrade and noise is lowered by 6.7dB, thereby providing the optimal balance between thermals and acoustics. The MSI GTX 680 Lightning uses Military Class III components which have been rigorously tested by an independent laboratory to deliver extreme stability during overclocking. The 3x3 OC kits, designed specifically for overclockers, are also the perfect tool for monitoring graphics card status. As the newest flagship graphics card, the GTX 680 Lightning offers advanced proprietary design features which deliver unparalleled performance, cooling, materials, and software applications to satisfy even the most hardcore professional overclockers.
