check out this overclocked 580

[jayjay]

this card is an asus republic of gamers 580 the card has buttons on to increase voltage and fan speed here an article http://www.guru3d.com/news/asus-rog-matrix-gtx-580-graphics-card-announced/

is no one impressed by this

i have two 580's.
i win

But Seriously, you can "overclock" the 580 via the Nvidia Control Panel, You Don't even have to move your whole body.

Haha, makes that 580 above a bit redundant then doesn't it , can use control panel(ntune) msi afterburner, loads of different progs for it

did you not read the article its 15% faster 35c cooler, thats a serious piece of kit,with some nice touches the rog stuff is well made, as for havin 2 580s kepler will be out in a few months lol

But it's larger than a 590 and a 590 is a big bit of kit!

this is a quote from anandtech The odd thing about the GTX580 is that at the ASUS booth, which had a live demonstration, in order to promote the onboard voltage tweaking settings, had a display showing that the voltage can be adjusted from a +50 mV offset, to a 1250 mV offset. Bearing in mind that the chip at default runs around 1 V, adding a +1250 mV offset gives 2.25 V – this is around 0.5 V more than extreme overclockers use

 

[MrShteeeve]

Still bigger than a 590, and I'd rather have a 590

 

[jayjay]

for the second time today amyandsteve we will have to respestfuly agree to disagree lol
