This is the best GTX260 graphics card on the market at this moment. Maybe this statement sounds too pompous, but it is pretty much real. MSI GTX260 Lightning is card that was created as result of MSI efforts and goal to create "perfect" graphics card. This model is, obviously, best suited for enthusiasts: for users that don't ask for price when they want to have best piece of hardware in its class. This "class" is very important, because no matter how good and fast this card is, it will never be faster than most GTX285 and faster models, although it will be capable to put a good fight against GTX 275.
