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.

 Even better

 

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.

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?

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.

And that very well may be why your test 1 score was so low.

Great run there.
 
 

Did some benching tonight, got down to 5.094s on Wprime 32m, 160.922s Wprime 1024m, oh yeah.. And.....
 

 
Ignore the Vreg,that was before I put a couple 40mm fans on it, now it's at 45C.
 
I had Vantage passing with 4713mhz CPU and 995mhz GPU, but it didn't like the Physx test, need to reinstall drivers for that.

hallowen What you cooling that ultra with?

 Yes it seems they do. Great work.

Now that I Know How Well the GTX580 Ultras Perform with Chilled Water Cooling, It's Time for the Next Step......
 

 Now thats what I'm talkin bout.

My Congrats on the Top Score for WC Halo!
 
Back in My World, It has Finally Arrived......
 

 
 

First Run with the ES.....................
