RTCook got a reaction from Osmium in GTX 680 Lightning running on last legs
Altered BIOS from someone on Overclock.net, forget whose it was. I can't run the card in LN2 mode anymore after I ran it with such a high OC for over a year (1310MHz Core / 6455Mhz Memory).
Guess I just burnt it out, it was running at near max voltage 24/7 because of the altered BIOS, he couldn't figure out how to change it, but at least I was able to use the card at full potential (+300% Voltage!)
EDIT: Also that may be my best bet, running the card underclocked/undervolted to keep it alive a little bit longer, didn't think of that!

Run your card underclocked and undervolted. Wait till Maxwell. I am not a fan of upgrading single generations and considering you were already planning on buying Maxwell I'd say go for it.
Also out of curiousity how did you manage to kill your card in only 2 years? 680s never ran too hot and the lightning cooler was great.

Why do YOU deserve this?: My Windows 7 copy has had it's use, love that version, but have reformatted more times than I can count in the last year or so due to corrupt Windows files. Sadly it's time for me to make the move to Windows 8.1, just don't have the money since I'm disabled and can't work.
Anything else you'd like to say? Thanks for the giveaway, very thoughtful of you! And Congrats to whoever wins this!

RTCook got a reaction from Wauthar in LTT Conglomerate main discussion thread
Phazon (Mercenary)
Super Hornet (LTI)
Aurora LN (LTI)
Origin 350r (LTI)
Origin 300i (LTI)
And more money spent than my old laptop costs all reporting in! Been a backer for the game ever since it was on Kickstarter, I drool over anything space related, ESPECIALLY freeroam space sims.
