I was waiting for one of these and of course they now launch when I just ordered this.

Really didn't want to spend all of that money.. kind of upset about this now.

Cancel your order perhaps?

I just checked and voltage adjustment over 100mV should be enabled in the upcoming version of AfterBurner. I can only guess the exact reasons of the delay.

The card was in stock at newegg for about 2 days and went out of stock last night! GOD DAMN IT. time to wait. THe lightning card is the only card appealing to me right now so. Time to play the wait game. MSI better have a shit ton of these cards on its way to newegg for next week or im going to rage!

TPU's review of the MSI N670 PE indicates the hardware will not allow voltage control. The following is from page 4 a closer look "MSI uses use a Richtek RT8802A voltage controller on their card, just like the reference design. This is a fairly simple controller which does not offer any monitoring features or software voltage control. Voltages are controlled via VID pins that are directly connected to the GPU."

So... Afterburner 2.2.3 will not unlock voltage on the N670 PE?

Before it's all doom&gloom, just wait for Unwinder to deliver a nice piece of magic, okay?
