GeForce GTX 670 power Edition so this is unique because it has triple voltage that is an enhanced power delivery design which allows you to actually overvolt the GPU which reference boards can't do so you can use MSI After Burner which is conspicuously missing at little badge on the front ah there it is you can use MSI afterburner to overclock this graphics card significantly better probably in theory you know I can't guarantee overclocking results than a referenced GTX 670 or even a non-referenced GTX 670 that doesn't use their you know military class beefy components as well as their unique voltage controller design that actually allows the card to be overvolted because Normal GTX 670s have uh some trouble with that so here we go triple over voltage by MSI afterburner so voltage adjustment of GPU memory and PLL by After Burner military class 3 components we've come to expect this from these guys so they're super far chokes highly conductive capacitors capacitors capacitors and solid caps MSI After Burner we've talked about already enhanced pwm design enhances overclocking stability okay got it and media's comment to Twin frozer thermal design ah yes so it uses their twin frozer cooler this uses a twin uh hey Alex does this used twin frozer three or four four okay thank you we've actually got Alex here from MSI while we film these and then I have to give these back to him to take with him because uh he needs them for some kind of sorry where you going uh Alaska he says he's going to Alaska with them but I don't believe that for a second so dual Molex to uh uh six pin PCIe connectors you've got two of them in terms of included accessories you usually find those with MSI cards down here DV to VGA as well as you know users guide driver disc you don't need and all that normal stuff now let's get into the graphics card itself so the most unique thing about this card as I said before is not what you're going to find on the card however it does have their twin frozer 4 cooler so twin frozer keeps evolving the original twin frozer was just two fans on a heat sink the twin frozer 2 added super pipes the twin frozer 3 added the propeller blade fans which with their coating at the end here is less conducive to noise production or less less noisy because of the way that the turbulence is reduced as well as uh aha the the inclusion with Trin frozer 4 is the fact that the fan spin backwards for a little while before spinning forward which is helpful for reducing dust buildup on the heat sink itself because you can build the best heat sink in the world but then you cake it up with dust and it doesn't work at all so so that's uh that's all the different things that have gone into twin frozer it also looks cooler now than it used to uh card design so check this out it has a full board I don't know how much you can see it but you see here it has a full board unisync that actually adds to the structural rigidity of the board as well as increasing cooling so any components that need cooling you can see they have thermal pads for things like RAM right there so they're making contact spreading that heat out and any components that don't need cooling are popping up through it see just like that however that's not to say they're not getting any cooling anyway because the design of the twin frozer cooler blows air down over the entire PCB anyhow uh you find most of the other stuff that you're used to dual DVI DisplayPort as well as HDMI out so this is a GTX 600 series card which means you got full support for NVIDIA uh 3D Vision surround off of a single card and with a 670 you can actually get away with that however with some of the lower end stuff you aren't going to be able to run three displays at 1080P and 3D and at any kind of you know decent frame rate I mean this is probably where I would start and then maybe add another one if you're not happy with the frame rate speaking of adding another one GTX 670 does support up to four-way SLI so 1 2 3 or four cards are all supported and you got ah yes non-reference PCB so we've talked about this a little bit already but the reference GTX 670 PCB is like here cuts off here so there's just not as much room to put on beefy power components and to have the power connectors at the end of the board which is a little bit better for cable management and to just have more room to lay things out rather than cramping them all together so that's the advantage of getting a non- reference card for something like a high-end GPU like a GTX 670 so I think that pretty much covers it thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the GeForce GTX 670 power Edition from MSI don't forget to subscribe for more unboxings reviews and other computer videos"}
