00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:07.439
so the point of this video is just to quickly demonstrate the uh the power

00:00:04.680 --> 00:00:14.240
consumption of the four-way SLI 6 core machine while running a typical game so

00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:17.920
I have race driver grid running at 1280x

00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:19.560
800 um on my projector here and um this

00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:25.840
is actually I I mentioned this in another video I'm not sure if I ever uploaded it or not though but this is my

00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:30.679
first time gaming on a projector and so I got my G25 wheel set up here and uh

00:00:29.279 --> 00:00:35.520
it's actually pretty cool I don't know how many inches this screen is but it's

00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:39.920
a lot um just projecting onto a white wall and it's actually kind of this

00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:44.000
projector is just a a demo unit that I get to have a look at for a couple days

00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:48.199
but uh I think it's pretty much got me convinced to oh that kind of failed it's

00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:53.640
got me pretty much convinced that I need to go out and buy a projector now so

00:00:50.440 --> 00:00:57.520
anyway I'll get the uh cameraman or uh

00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:58.840
to go have a look at the uh the energy

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:04.720
meter that I have sitting on the wall I'm crashed so I'm going to get up and turn on the light in the room here so

00:01:02.480 --> 00:01:08.479
that you can actually read it so anyway there that gives you some idea this is

00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:13.960
not a worst case scenario this is running a fairly

00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:16.640
non-demanding game uh grid isn't sort of

00:01:13.960 --> 00:01:21.680
the worst that you'll see um but what I saw before was typically in the sort of

00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:27.280
1,000 watt range so something to bear in mind is that means the system's probably

00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:29.560
pulling about 850 Watts during a typical

00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:33.600
gaming load so I'm going to actually update this with some synthetic

00:01:31.880 --> 00:01:37.920
benchmarks which should give us some more realistic absolute maximum power

00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:42.720
consumption but what this does tell us is that the 1500 wat power supply is

00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:46.399
more than comfortable with the load that this system can put out
