No the other is just a Gigabyte reference. I'm going to get another DC card depending on how this one works out with voltage unlocking, once I sell the Gigabyte. I just went +400 on memory (6800 effective) on both, the reference maxes at around 520 alone though. Going to play with them a bit and see what I get.

Oh wow, did you put the DC2 on top or bottom pci-e slot?

I SLI'ed lightning 580s in my HAF-x last year and it was a complete nightmare at first. The temps on my top card were horrible....i'd get crashes after 20-30 minutes of gaming. Took a long time to find the comfort zone there. I just had a *ton* of heat dumped into my case and over time it would just turn GPU1 into a toaster.

I put it on the bottom, my other card is part of my loop and I didn't feel like draining or any of that tonight lol. DC was maxing out around 60C at 1325 in BF3. Might go for voltage unlocking tomorrow if I feel sure enough ;)
