Zotac GTX 780 AMP! Review at HardwareHeaven

Zotac is an interesting company,  on one hand they have these super cool, super small MiniITX motherboards that simulate a system on a chip (board in this case) that sell extremely well in the States.  On the other hand they have these super cool, semi awesome video cards that simulate all that is good in a video card and you would be hard pressed to get one from a US based e-tailer.

Today ZOTAC launch their take on a custom cooled 780 with a significant overclock applied at the factory; over 1000MHz base. We will compare it to an existing "super overclock" edition as well as taking a 7970 GHz Edition, water-cooling it and overclocking well past retail overclocked models to see how it compares in game such as Crysis 3 and Metro: Last Light.

The AMP! edition GPU isn't much more than a reference GTX 780 with a fancy cooler with a few extra Mhz extracted from the GPU.  The real gem would be the Extreme Edition cards that appear to be a "China Only" distribution.  

One of those cards in GTX 780 clothing would rival the Classified and Lightning cards for sure.
