According to Donanimhaber.com, MSI is working on Radeon HD 5870 Linghtning and prepping to show at CES 2010.

There is no official information but if we consider GTX 260 and GTX 275 Linghtning models, HD 5870 Lightning will probably use high quality components, custom design cooler and come with special overclock panel.

The upcoming graphics card will feature a proprietary cooler (probably a 2-fan solution), a custom PCB that’s taller than the one of stock models, and will make use of two 8-pin PCIe power connectors (dual 6-pin on reference HD 5870s), for overclocking reasons.

The R5870 Lightning will likely be factory overclocked and will boast the ‘usual’ – 1600 Stream Processors, a 256-bit memory interface, GDDR5 memory, DirectX 11 support, CrossFireX and Eyefinity, as well as DVI, HDMI and DisplayPort outputs. More will about the card will probably come about at CES next month.
