After all of the raging that these weren't in stock, all of them. Have shown in stock consistently for the past few days on the US site...

Did all of the reviews and users talking about their overclocks sway the decision of those with deep pockets that all wanted the 80%+ cards?

I definitely would love to grab one for trying out, but I am trying to pay off bills.. Hopefully everyone that was screaming that the stock was bad was able to pick up their chosen cards.

I think the reason of that is a fact that Lightning has been released :)

You're still forgetting that the lightning won't touch the kingpin. :)
 
The major drawback even if it was semi-matched. MSI? Yea you'd have to pay me to run that brand.

What I mean is that for sure this is the closest competition for K|ngp|n right now and a lot of customers will decide to pick msi.
Lightning series has a lot of lovers and imo it's a very successfull line.
 
Comment about memory on this cards is just pure marketing to convice customers to buy K|ngp|n.
 
For me there is nothing worse in this card (maybe except the look but cooper is also not so nice for me). Stock cooling can be even little better in Lighgtning, I wonder if there will be a throtling with two of them in sli.
Please take a note I'm not LN2 user.
I know here everybody loves Evga products and so do I but please lets look more fair at competition.
 
I'm waiting forward for Jaytwocents review of this card (on K|ngp|n review he  showed he has lightning allready).

I'm simply EVGA because when/if I need support I get American help. Yes it's the closest the kingpin has for competition but it still won't touch it. While the lightning series may have a lot of lovers, in the end the card is still MSI. I've had to jump through hoops the one time I had to RMA something.
 
The one exception was the fact I wanted the Godlike motherboard by MSI simply for the RGB lighting. The $550 price was a tad much for me though especially since I wasn't a fan of any processors they have out ATM(nothing 4GHz). I refuse to OC.

Make sure Px is off.. Maybe uninstall it, and try out Afterburner or PX 4.2.1 for fan control. Px4.2.1:

I am not sure how 4.2.1 will do with overclocking, but it will at least give you good fan control over the card.

I'm having success OCing on PX 4.2.1 FYI.

Thanks Vince,
I was wondering why the Jayz two cents Video Review of the 980Ti KP couldn't get above 1520MHz, But didn't know it was a newer Nvidia Driver problem.

Not sure what his problem was, I just found these driver troubles last week.
That review was poorly done imo and seemed unprofessional to me.  I really expected more about all the features of the card like single slot capability, unique display config, pcb heater, more focus on robust memory overclocking, the fact that the card is more efficient per clock than all other Ti's, the support we are giving in the massive OC guide we posted, etc. He doesn't even understand how the nv delta clock works based on his overclocking chart. There is literally NO DIFFERENCE in real perf between overclocks on ANY card within 12mhz or less of each other. That chart showing overclocking was hilarious with cards less than 5mhz apart but KP still winning in just about every game benchmark. KP980ti should be numbero uno in every single benchmark even with a lower clock than all the other cards. He says no idea why based on his comments about why he doesn't understand some resolutions of benchmarks are scoring higher/lower. Delta just wasn't right on nv clock, if you run multiple instances with a real time clock monitor, you can see the clock in precision will change sometimes at start of bench or when setting offsets the frequency will jump 2-3 mhz with just 1 offset or not even change at all with up to 2+ offset.
That's my idea to send that card to him, he didn't ask for it or buy it on his own. I regret it now 100% now as it seems all he wanted to do was talk about his hairline, how expensive the card is, and then plug the lightning at the end :).
