How did they mess up the 780?

Bad bios, non-overclockable memory, and released very late

 

edit: I am of course talking about the Lightning  :P

That's expensive. D:

I think the price is wrong, considering it costs the same as the 290x

Like the site says in the bottom, the picture is just to give an idea of the product, and is not necessarily the correct picture.

 

That being said, the MSI card will probably look like that.

Watching Intel have competition is like watching a headless chicken trying to get out of a mine field
