with no clear future about GTX680 availability on the market, and these huge price cuts on 79xx and 78xx whoever got the crown for the fastest is not important anymore..

cant go wrong with either board. Its coming down to user preference and the ones who bash other parts are the real douchebags here

Romanian suppliers have the Lightning on stock, only them, no shop dares to stock it, however they can oder it from the suppliers in two days delivery time. So far 19 7900's are availabe out of 20 and 5 GTX 680's out of 7 on order only but the prices with our 24% VAT are insane, not many dare to touch them.
