Nice score bud.    Have to see how close I can come to that. 

 
 Thanks. As soon as futuremark site is working I will post it in 580 forums.

Ah, was wondering why the hell I could not connect to look at your link, dam. lol

 Even better

 

Whoa. Excellent work!
 
Nate, check your PM box. 

Also here's an interesting little hint on upcoming cards.

Ok its no mystery that EVGA lost a chunk of the design team long before me or TiN got here. We are nearly 100% again, and with every product launch we are about there. For you guys who want the fastest current gen for highest benchmark records etc its a bit different from those EVGA enthusiast loyal to the brand who want to use our top products becuase they love them for their daily and gaming rigs no matter what. 
Nothing we can do about 7970 card getting released, thats the natural cycle of things there is always gonna be something better in benchmarks around the corner from green or red. 580 classy was something that me and TiN really wanted to do even though it was so late. So we did it because we could and the card is bad ass. Everything that was done on 580 classified with regards to design and engineering to make it a great overclocking card will be carried over to our future NVIDIA kepler design for 2012 as well as TONS of new features and enhancements we are already currently working on . It will be ready from the start of next gen.
You dont have to bench 7970 if you dont want to Kenny  I am still gonna bench 580 classies till next gen pushing them higher and higher in QUAD SLI with the goal of doing things no one else has done... show 1400mhz+ quad SLI. Everything done in this lab with 580 will carry over to next gen so its all worth it. I could care less about 7970. We don't deal with ATI products so why waste time on them. 
X79 boards specifically E779 CLASSIFIED had some delays with parts shortages on pwm components beyond our control, but for the most part it was ready on time and it is a nice board and really marks the beginning of a new era for the company imo. Looking at X79 launch in general in relation to our "larger" competitors, I thnk we've done great. We have lots of totally new stuff coming for 2k12 that will revolutionize components of our industry. There was quite a bit of ground to make up when we got here. I think we've done well considering and EVGA is poised to take the lead for innovation in our industry for 2k12. Lets see what happens 

 
Not bad not bad, I thought you guys would appreciate this in particular.

Nice job Awall!

Well, Now that I have Windows 7 64 OS working Great, I have a Question for Ya'll about the LED's on the Back of the GTX 580 PCB:
 
I have Two of My Three Cards that show RED LEDS and one that shows a GREEN LED when You First turn the System on.
 
When I test them Individually They All run Pretty Close Vantage GPU Scores, But Sometimes When I use Them in 2-Way, the GPU Scores can change as much as 10,000 Points, and in 3-Way SLI, I Don't Gain ANY GPU Performance Score Changes over the 2-Way SLI while running Vantage.
 
Does Anyone Know What these Red and Green LED Lights Indicate?

 Thers a switch on top for normal and OC. normal is green red is OC. To adjust voltage switch must be set to OC red.
Thanks Q
Give me a minute I will post a pic.

Also if your cards are all showing as 3 way SLI. With out a high CPU OC you will be bottle-necked 3 580's is a lot of info to handle. 4.0Ghz on a quad may not be enough. IMO.
 If I run 1000 core speed ON 2X 580 AND 3930 AT 3.8gHZ 20-30 FPS drop in vantage run.

Thanks, I Appreciate You for Clearing that up, I thought there was a problem with the cards because of the different colored LED indications.
 
Right Now, My 920DO Quad on Air Cooling can only run about 3.5GHz without BSOD'ing and is Definitely causing a bottle-neck situation with TRi-SLI that Hopefully will be resolved with either better Cooling on the Quad or replacement with My 980X ES whenever it gets Delivered!
I am pretty sure I'll HAVE to use the 980x ES for Quad-SLI and probably on Chiller Water or Phase Change Cooling to prevent any more bottle-neck problems.
