Greek overclocker Hipro5 has overclocked the MSI R5870 Lightning graphics card to 1404MHz GPU and 1377MHz on the GDDR5 memory with the help of LN2 cooling. You can check out the results at Nordic Hardware.

Using a fair share of liquid nitrogen Hipro5 pushed Lightning to 1404MHz GPU and 1377MHz on the GDDR5 memories. Pair this with a Core i7 975 CPU running at neat 5548MHz and you get a new single card world record in 3DMark 06; 34266 points.
