00:00:11.360 --> 00:00:21.080
more welcome to my unboxing and first look at something where

00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:22.560
oh am I just trolling you guys this is

00:00:21.080 --> 00:00:32.079
no no don't worry what's actually in here is not an 8800 GT this is the

00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:34.760
GeForce GTX 770 from NVIDIA so this is a

00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:40.360
new generation product a 700 series product but what you'll notice is it

00:00:36.879 --> 00:00:43.760
actually shares a lot in common with the

00:00:40.360 --> 00:00:48.160
last generation GTX 680 so it has the

00:00:43.760 --> 00:00:51.239
same GK 104 core so that is it to say

00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:54.359
that it has a 256-bit memory bus the

00:00:51.239 --> 00:00:55.800
stock card has 2 gigs of RAM but there

00:00:54.359 --> 00:01:00.559
are non-reference cards that are going to be available with up to 4 gigs of RAM

00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:05.000
however the RAM is where the really special part of this video card really

00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:10.080
comes into play because this is the first graphics card on Earth to ship

00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:14.439
with 7 GHz gddr5 what that means is more memory

00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:18.320
bandwidth and we've actually already done a fair bit of testing on this card

00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:23.320
so what I can tell you right now is that yeah the higher clock speeds versus the

00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:25.640
GTX 680 yeah this is a 7D class card

00:01:23.320 --> 00:01:30.520
that is pretty much a replacement for the last generation Flagship GTX 680

00:01:28.680 --> 00:01:35.200
except that it's actually even faster so yeah it's got higher clock speeds but

00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:41.079
particularly at higher resolution so greater than 1080p that extra memory

00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:43.680
bandwidth helps a lot for it to really

00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:49.040
pull ahead of the GTX 680 it also supports some other new cool 700 series

00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:53.000
features such as GPU boost 2 so GPU boost 2 allows this card instead of

00:01:51.240 --> 00:01:58.439
relying just on information about voltage clock speed and then the overall

00:01:55.799 --> 00:02:03.920
power Target of the board now is able to compensate for temperature as as well so

00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:06.840
if you tell it GTX 670 I am comfortable

00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:11.680
with you running at 90° it'll kind of go okay Roger Dodger and then if you put a

00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:16.519
water block on it so it's running at you know 45 degrees no matter what you do

00:02:14.239 --> 00:02:21.920
then it will continue to strive to Turbo itself up to the absolute maximum clock

00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:26.519
speed that it can sustain all the time no matter what now the GeForce

00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:30.920
experience came out of beta with GTX 780 and obviously it supports the GTX 770 as

00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:35.040
well what that means is you've always got the latest drivers and you've got

00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:38.319
recommendations for the settings that you should run in the various games you

00:02:36.760 --> 00:02:42.239
have on your computer so that you're never running it wrong I mean honestly

00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:46.360
my little brother's a great case of this I hope he's not watching this video but

00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:51.640
I gave the kid a GTX 275 this was a couple years ago back when that was like

00:02:49.440 --> 00:02:57.680
you know a pretty decent card and I go over and he's running some Call of Duty

00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:59.480
game at low details at like 1280 by 800

00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:03.879
or something ridiculous like that on his 108 DP monitor I'm just I'm looking at

00:03:01.239 --> 00:03:07.920
the kid I'm like really you're not let it's running at like 300 frames per

00:03:05.920 --> 00:03:10.200
second you can actually turn the details St I turned the game up and he was like

00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:16.440
oh that's what it's supposed to look like yeah that's what it's supposed to look like so GeForce experience maybe

00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:19.080
isn't for you the viewer right now maybe it's not for you at all maybe you don't

00:03:17.760 --> 00:03:24.080
care maybe you want to dial in your own settings personally I do but maybe it's

00:03:22.040 --> 00:03:27.720
for someone that you're recommending a card for where you know that they're

00:03:25.959 --> 00:03:31.519
just not capable of remembering to upgrade their own drivers or choose

00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:35.519
their own setting so there you go I hope my brother's not watching this um also

00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:39.080
NVIDIA is going to be introducing a new feature in GeForce experience called

00:03:37.200 --> 00:03:44.000
Shadow play which is going to allow you to use the built-in h264 encoder on your

00:03:41.519 --> 00:03:48.519
card at a nominal performance hit maybe about 5% to record your gameplay up to

00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:52.480
the last 20 minutes of gameplay on the fly all the time so you never miss a

00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:57.400
moment when you're making up your gameplay videos or or whatever else very

00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:01.879
cool stuff all the usual NVIDIA Technologies are supported SLI up to

00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:05.200
three-way now NVIDIA yeah they have cards that support four-way but they're

00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:10.000
really not talking about four-way SLI anymore it really doesn't scale very

00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:14.200
well two-way SLI scales great on this card three-way SLI is going to scale

00:04:11.959 --> 00:04:18.880
okay at higher resolutions four-way SLI tends to not scale that much so it does

00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:23.759
support all the SLI whichever ones you want it has a six pin and 8 Pin power

00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:28.080
adapter the TDP of this card is slightly higher than the GTX 680 that it comes in

00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:32.759
and replaces but don't worry because the price is lower which is what going to

00:04:30.320 --> 00:04:37.720
make this card so attractive is that not only do you get that GTX 680 performance

00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:43.440
but I've seen a lot of speculation that from the leaked pictures of GTX 670 that

00:04:40.280 --> 00:04:45.520
NVIDIA was building not quite the same

00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:51.360
level of quality of a cooler that they put on the Titan and the 780 with its

00:04:48.479 --> 00:04:55.840
aluminum construction and polycarbonate window on the aluminum fins with the

00:04:53.400 --> 00:05:00.120
noise dampened fan that's actually got an updated profile that makes the car

00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:06.000
not only run fast but also incred ibly quietly and illuminated GeForce GTX logo

00:05:03.320 --> 00:05:12.800
on the top all of that is false this features the same level of quality of

00:05:08.440 --> 00:05:14.400
cool cool the same cool cooler that has

00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:18.520
a high level of quality that's what I meant to say and it looks absolutely

00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:25.319
outstanding in your rig and now you can I mean I have heard people buy Titans

00:05:23.400 --> 00:05:29.759
because they love the way it looks now you can get the look and a lot of the

00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:35.840
performance for a significantly lower cost with that said no this card is not

00:05:32.919 --> 00:05:40.840
gk10 based it is not in the same league as Titan and GTX 780 but what it does do

00:05:38.840 --> 00:05:45.039
is it comes in an attractive price point and is able to deliver better

00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:49.000
performance than the outgoing GTX 680 particularly at higher resolutions

00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:53.400
you've got full support for NVIDIA 3D Vision surround allowing you to have up

00:05:50.919 --> 00:05:58.520
to three plus one displays so three and Surround with one auxiliary display and

00:05:56.039 --> 00:06:04.560
of course stereo 3D on supported 3D Vision enabled monitors PCI Express 3.0

00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:08.000
interface is down here on the bottom and most of the exhaust from this card is

00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:12.280
going to go out the back of your case while some of it will go out these fins

00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:17.599
here and that's going to help cool some of the voltage regulation modules on the

00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:21.680
PCB itself I think that pretty much does it for my GTX 770 overview don't forget

00:06:19.919 --> 00:06:26.400
to check out my review content for this card as well where we walk you through

00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:28.919
the nitty-gritty of its performance thanks for watching and don't forget to
