Point of View / TGT launched its GTX 580 Beast 2 card that, just like its predecessor GTX 580 Beast, comes with AquagraFX water block (manufactured by Aqua Computer). However, Beast 2 boasts even higher clocks – the GPU runs at 873MHz, which is 101MHz or 13% higher than reference 772MHz.

Point of View / TGT launched its first GTX 580 Beast back in December and its 855MHz GPU earned it the title of the fastest GTX 580 around at the time. However, since other partners have jumped aboard and pushed the GPUs to about 850MHz, the PoV/TGT teams decided to squeeze some more juice out of the card.

Below you see GTX 580 Beast 2 and the GPUz that confirms it’s clocked at 873MHz.
