The inevitable happened, OCZ has joined the market of serving uber individuals with the best handpicked NVIDIA 8800GTX video card. I seem to remember NVIDIA having a negative stance about overclocking their card, so if I recall it correctly, then OCZ might be treading on thin line here since they are actually promoting to overclock it, and with lifetime warranty and technical support.
That's just hard to beat, even if there are others doing similar lifetime warranty, I haven't seen video manufacturers actually supporting customers to overclock their video card. And while there are manufacturers releasing a factory-overclocked video cards, OCZ is releasing it on stock speed (575MHz core, 1.8GHz GDDR3) but touting a better headroom for overclocking with the usual support and warranty. Expand to check out the full release.
