The applications and games used in today's tests are the latest of what was available at the time of this analysis - links to demos and free trials are provided when applicable. MSI's GTX 580 Lightning features a default core clock of 832 MHz (772 MHz reference) and memory running at 2100 MHz (4200 MHz effective). Overclocking allowed us to increase the core to 970 MHz and memory to 2400 MHz (4800 MHz effective) making use of core voltage adjustments present in MSI's own Afterburner software. Default specifications are displayed below on the left, while overclock settings and details are on the right.   Game Benchmarks: We have compiled a list of popular and graphically challenging games which include titles utilising Microsoft's DirectX 9, 10 and 11 API's for testing today; tested in 1920x1200 and 1680x1050 resolutions that are most commonly used by gamers based on Steam's hardware survey.
