00:00:00.199 --> 00:00:07.600
I feel bad for the guys over at NVIDIA PR and marketing I really do not because

00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:11.559
of the recent 3 and a half gig gtx970 Fiasco not because of the hours that I

00:00:09.880 --> 00:00:16.119
know they work based on when I get responses to my emails and not because

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:21.720
the hardware that it's their job to convince us to buy is particularly hard

00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:24.080
to sell most of the time I feel bad for

00:00:21.720 --> 00:00:29.359
the NVIDIA guys because it has got to be hard to keep finding more and more

00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:34.200
creative ways to write reviewers guides and product pages that exist just to

00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:39.960
communicate that this new thing we made is the world's fastest GPU again because

00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:50.069
yes folks they've done it again this is the GTX Titan X the well world's fastest

00:00:52.440 --> 00:00:58.280
GPU Corsair h8i GT and h100i GTX

00:00:56.680 --> 00:01:04.280
all-in-one liquid coolers make your system run cooler and look better too

00:01:01.239 --> 00:01:07.080
click on this graphics card to learn

00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:12.640
more let's start with the specs under the hood of the Titan X you'll find a

00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:15.960
gm200 GPU the big brother to the Maxwell

00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:19.040
architecture GM 204 that powers the GTX

00:01:15.960 --> 00:01:21.560
980 and 970 so you've probably guessed

00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:27.079
by now that the Titan X is also Maxwell based but when I said big brother I

00:01:24.119 --> 00:01:31.159
really meant big the Titan X packs a whopping 8 billion transistors running

00:01:29.360 --> 00:01:39.439
at a base clock clock of 1 GHz with typical boost speeds around 1075 MHz 372

00:01:35.600 --> 00:01:41.399
Cuda 12 gigs of gddr5 memory yeah I said

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:45.320
12 gigs although that'll be more relevant for computational applications

00:01:43.240 --> 00:01:50.119
and 3D rendering with large models than gaming for the foreseeable future

00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:53.200
running at 7 GHz and connected via a

00:01:50.119 --> 00:01:55.479
384bit bus just like the original Titan

00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:59.920
and Titan black and that's not the only thing it has in common with the original

00:01:57.240 --> 00:02:04.719
Titan I mean I wonder whose job it is at NVIDIA to design the reference coolers

00:02:02.320 --> 00:02:10.440
does he actually do any work anymore cuz this one with its copper Vapor chamber

00:02:07.039 --> 00:02:12.480
aluminum fins and aluminum shroud looks

00:02:10.440 --> 00:02:16.480
just like the old one I mean maybe there was like an incident a couple of years

00:02:14.239 --> 00:02:20.319
ago where he like bumped into Jensen in the cafeteria and Spilled soup down the

00:02:18.440 --> 00:02:23.879
front of his shirt so they actually laid the guy off and then in a fit of anger

00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:28.160
he took the blueprints for their metal shroud stock cooler so all they can do

00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:31.920
now is make slight tweaks to the color scheme every time which okay no sorry I

00:02:30.640 --> 00:02:36.280
don't actually think that's what happened and at any rate the color

00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:40.440
scheme tweak is probably all that this excellent design needed to look even

00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:44.800
more awesome anyway but I still wouldn't have been too disappointed to see a bit

00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:49.040
of a a refresh with a brand new top-of-the-line card the good news

00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:52.879
though is that the looks of a graphics card should probably be the last thing

00:02:50.959 --> 00:02:58.080
you're considering when buying it and the Titan X has got it where it counts

00:02:55.599 --> 00:03:03.879
gen 3 PCIe 16x connectivity at the bottom dual PCIe power connectors one

00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:05.879
six pin and one8 pin at the top and a 6

00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:13.920
plus 2phase power delivery designed to handle the card's 250 wat TDP or 275 wat

00:03:11.040 --> 00:03:18.040
power limit with it set to 110% in your favorite overclocking utility it's got

00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:22.200
two SLI connectors at the top to enable up to four-way configurations which in

00:03:20.760 --> 00:03:25.599
my mind is probably the only way you're going to get enough horsepower to

00:03:23.799 --> 00:03:30.439
justify the 12 gig frame buffer for gaming and the rear IO takes a page from

00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:38.319
the rest of its Maxwell family members with dvii HDMI 2.0 for up to 4K 60 HZ

00:03:34.760 --> 00:03:41.200
displays and triple DisplayPort 1.2

00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:46.799
ports for 5K displays like Dell's fancy pants up2715k that we checked out

00:03:43.480 --> 00:03:48.360
recently here and Surround 4K monitors

00:03:46.799 --> 00:03:53.319
oh yeah and they're all compatible with g-sync as well and of course the other

00:03:51.200 --> 00:03:56.720
new Maxwell features that will be making their way into games over the next

00:03:54.760 --> 00:04:02.760
couple of years are also present here vxgi NVIDIA's fancy voxal based

00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:06.360
real-time lighting technology mfaa they're Handy Dandy and automatically

00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:10.599
applied through GeForce experience anti-aliasing technique that delivers

00:04:08.480 --> 00:04:15.400
very similar results to msaa at a smaller performance hit and there's some

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:20.400
new stuff like physx which okay physx isn't new but the CPU based

00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:24.440
implementations went open source which what NVIDIA what is this doing in my

00:04:22.280 --> 00:04:30.880
Titan X reviewers guide this supports the GPU Paths of physx just fine moving

00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:33.360
on ah you you want me to talk about VR

00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:38.720
features that I can do even though gaming head-mounted display products

00:04:35.400 --> 00:04:42.320
like Oculus is rift and HTC and valves

00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:44.440
Vive are coming later this year whatever

00:04:42.320 --> 00:04:49.360
that means NVIDIA is hard at work reducing the latency between the frame

00:04:46.520 --> 00:04:55.080
being rendered and displayed on your hmd to reduce motion sickness including a

00:04:52.039 --> 00:04:57.759
new SLI mode that allows presumably this

00:04:55.080 --> 00:05:01.720
works with two gpus one GPU to render the left eye image and the second to

00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:06.320
render the right eye image dramatically improving performance and the

00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:11.479
awesomeness in theory doesn't end there because we haven't even talked about

00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:14.080
overclocked performance of this beast

00:05:11.479 --> 00:05:18.479
and for that I will hand off to Luke but I got a feeling this going to be good

00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:22.880
and it is good this card slams the competition in terms of single GPU Pure

00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:28.960
Performance and it was able to achieve clearly higher minimum maximum and

00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:34.199
average FPS in all the games we tested if you're wondering about its 12 GB of

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:39.479
vram well Shadow Mordor with ultra textures on was able to use about 6.4 GB

00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:43.520
of the stuff but we will need to push it even harder to see more utilization here

00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:49.240
in terms of overclocking this is a pretty interesting card that 250 to 275

00:05:46.840 --> 00:05:54.840
watt TDP results in a card that really pushes NVIDIA's heat SN design under

00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:57.280
load I was hitting around almost 400

00:05:54.840 --> 00:06:03.639
watts from the wall in terms of power and around 83 to 86° C with the fan on

00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:07.880
auto so it's pretty hot but that's not all it's super power hungry as well the

00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:12.160
first limit I hit was temperature shortly afterwards after a little

00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:17.560
tweaking as well I also hit power and voltage limits and in the end I was able

00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:20.000
to land somewhere around 1375 to 1393

00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:24.199
MHz and NVIDIA expects you to get around, 1400 MHz so you may be able to

00:06:22.520 --> 00:06:28.360
get a little bit more out of your Titan X on your own one of the big factors

00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:32.360
that may have played into my slightly lower clock speed is the room I was

00:06:29.880 --> 00:06:37.720
testing in was at a fairly balmy ambient temperature of 28° C I'm really hoping

00:06:35.479 --> 00:06:41.199
someone makes a really beefy aftermarket Cooling and power solution for this GPU

00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:46.360
I would really like to see what the Titan X is capable of when it's not

00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:48.160
hitting voltage power and Thermo limits

00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:52.560
all over the freaking place maybe hooking up to phase change could even be

00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:57.759
a little fun in terms of price per performance this may not be the best

00:06:54.880 --> 00:07:00.120
value card out there if you but if you want to just Crush things with a single

00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:05.520
card this may be the ticket let me know over on the Forum if you'd like to see more

00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:10.199
titanex videos and what they should be about maybe an SLI Showdown against

00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:14.720
maybe dual 980s or maybe some Subzero cooling with a phase change I don't know

00:07:11.960 --> 00:07:19.319
let me know anyways back to you lonus speaking of cool things or the Forum or

00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:24.280
whatever he was talking about our friends over at cherro have recently

00:07:21.960 --> 00:07:31.120
released a couple of new Dan board products that look pretty D

00:07:27.960 --> 00:07:33.479
compelling oh that's awful these are the

00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:39.440
Dan board block 34200 milliamp batteries two products

00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:45.599
that address one of the major concerns about their previous Dan board products

00:07:42.039 --> 00:07:47.280
the form factor these are super thin

00:07:45.599 --> 00:07:54.960
devices so they're much more likely to be able to fit into things with the

00:07:49.960 --> 00:07:57.039
block and plate at about 0.5 in and4 in

00:07:54.960 --> 00:08:00.120
thick respectively of course they still feature all the same safety measures

00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:04.680
like overcharge protection that we're used to seeing on churro products but do

00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:09.039
so at a size that is much easier to fit in your pocket oh and they also want us

00:08:06.639 --> 00:08:14.080
to show off the uh new Revel tech danboard mini figure which could add a

00:08:11.080 --> 00:08:17.560
bit of cute Dan board flare to your desk

00:08:14.080 --> 00:08:19.639
at work or uh at home or your GTX Titan

00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:23.560
X isn't that adorable look at it go on there it's so

00:08:22.039 --> 00:08:27.000
cute anyway check out the link in the video description for more info on all

00:08:25.280 --> 00:08:34.599
of this good stuff from our friends over at chiro so there you have it the Titan

00:08:30.960 --> 00:08:36.839
X is well the fastest GPU in the world

00:08:34.599 --> 00:08:41.039
congrats NVIDIA you've done it again no wonder you were more focused on putting

00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:44.680
chips in cars at CES this year at least then people will congratulate you for

00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:48.800
you know something different for a change well even if you're bored of

00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:52.360
building fast graphics cards over and over again I for one appreciate it and

00:08:50.920 --> 00:08:56.519
as much as I'm looking forward to spending a lot of time with this GPU I'm

00:08:54.360 --> 00:09:01.519
looking forward even more to the next rabbit that you guys pull out of your

00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:02.920
hat keep on Trucking guys so that's it

00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:06.680
guys like this video if you liked it dislike it if you disliked it leave a

00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:09.360
comment uh hopefully on the Forum Linked In the video description if your

00:09:07.959 --> 00:09:13.360
feelings are more complicated than that you want to interact with our community also linked in the video description

00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:17.760
we've got a place where you can give us a contribution you can buy a cool t-shirt like this one you can change

00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:21.880
your Amazon bookmark to one with our affiliate codes So when you buy your shiny new Titan X we get a small

00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:25.360
Kickback that kind of thing helps us out a lot um I think that's pretty much it
