MSI N580GTX Lightning Xtreme Edition Pro Reviews

www.pcper.com‘s review Edit

MSI really has this stuff down. Their Lightning series of cards for this particular generation are just second to none in my testing. The N580GTX Lightning Xtreme Edition takes all the goodness of the previous Lightning cards and adds in those three extra touches to make this an outstanding product. While the color changing fans and automatic dust removal may be a bit gimmicky, the extra memory is useful when looking towards future games… and actually gaming today on three monitors when the cards are in SLI (aka NVIDIA Surround).

As it is right now, for a single display setup as tested, running this one video card, this may simply be overkill and overpriced for such a setup. Though owning one of these MSI N580GTX Lightning XE video cards and showing it off to your friends is a sure fire way to get an ego boost. It really is a beautiful video card when you consider the engineering that went into this beast.

HardwareZone‘s review Edit

The specifications of the MSI N580GTX Lightning Xtreme are no doubt impressive. Clock speeds out of the box are among the highest we have seen and that 3GB of GDDR5 memory will surely catch the attention of any enthusiast. Throw in that unique, temperature-sensitive color changing fans and the various enthusiast-oriented touches, like voltage check points and one gets a premium graphics card.

techPowerUp!‘s review Edit

Overall MSI's GTX 580 Lightning Xtreme Edition is a beast of a card, yet it fails to include real gamechanger features over MSI's "normal" GTX 580 Lightning Edition. If you are an overclocker, then both MSI's GTX 580 Lightning and GTX 580 Lightning Xtreme are cards that should be on your short list. Extreme cooling like dry ice and LN2 is welcome, too.
