00:00:02.360 --> 00:00:15.799
welcome to my 3D Vision video with the GTX 560 so for this trick I will require

00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:18.840
an ASUS 120 HZ 23.6 in LCD monitor

00:00:15.799 --> 00:00:21.560
capable of 3D Vision okay so I'll need a

00:00:18.840 --> 00:00:27.519
3D Vision ready monitor 1080p I will also need NVIDIA 3D Vision

00:00:24.519 --> 00:00:29.480
glasses which are here with a security

00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:33.600
device attached to them not that I stole them

00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:39.200
they came with that okay I will also need a 3D Vision ready video card in

00:00:36.480 --> 00:00:44.039
this case I actually have four different well these are sort of similar 3D Vision

00:00:41.360 --> 00:00:50.320
ready video card so I have the GTX 580 which retails for about 500 bucks I have

00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:53.399
the GTX 560 TI all new so I have a twin

00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:56.120
frozer 2 version and I also have a

00:00:53.399 --> 00:01:01.480
reference NVIDIA stock clocked version and then last but not least I have a GTX

00:00:58.680 --> 00:01:06.400
460 so these guys retail around 250 to 280 and this guy retails at uh a little

00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:12.360
bit lower so it's kind of the last generation 560 ti so the point of this

00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:18.640
video is to show you guys how these cards compare to each other in a 1080p

00:01:15.119 --> 00:01:21.680
High detail gaming 3D environment well

00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:23.560
with 3D so stereoscopic 3D I only use a

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:30.680
small cross-section of games but I'm going to test the 460 by itself the 560

00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:32.640
by itself 560s in SLI because at that

00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:37.520
price point they're very similar in price to a single 580 which I will also

00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:40.640
be comparing because it is the cream of the crop for single

00:01:40.720 --> 00:01:49.079
cards so guys what I have on the test bench right now is my dual GTX 560s

00:01:46.759 --> 00:01:54.719
although I have the driver configured right now so that I'm only using one of

00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:58.840
them so I'm testing it's single 560 I'm

00:01:54.719 --> 00:02:02.880
testing 580 I'm testing dual 4 dual 560

00:01:58.840 --> 00:02:04.439
TI and I'm also testing a 460 in order

00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:10.520
to find out what's going to give the most satisfactory 3D gaming experiences

00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:18.120
in my test games here so this one I would consider dual or

00:02:13.720 --> 00:02:20.680
single 560 not really playable uh at

00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:26.959
1080p remember I am running four times anti-aliasing eight times AF um I'm

00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:30.360
running everything on Max at 1080P and then it's rendering it from two

00:02:28.440 --> 00:02:34.920
different angles at the same time which is a lot more demanding for the

00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:40.480
GPU so it's actually quite challenging for me to do my run through like this

00:02:36.640 --> 00:02:42.440
because the frame rate is so um well

00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:47.000
unsatisfactory but I'm doing my I'm doing my best with it here so that I can

00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:51.120
provide the results that you guys want but anyway yeah so my graphs are

00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:56.239
upcoming and I'm going to show you guys how all these different configs are

00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:58.000
going to perform with 3D Vision which I

00:02:56.239 --> 00:03:02.920
mean I've said it before and I'll say it again is pretty much the most most

00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:06.840
immersive experience short of 3D Vision surround that you can buy

00:03:08.799 --> 00:03:17.360
today oh my goodness I'm not going to be able to kill these guys unless I like do

00:03:14.200 --> 00:03:17.360
that oh do you turn it off

00:03:25.799 --> 00:03:34.920
already so as you can see from the charts and graphs the data is pretty

00:03:30.640 --> 00:03:39.439
interesting because the GTX 560 TI in

00:03:34.920 --> 00:03:42.920
SLI do outperform the single GTX

00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:46.120
580 in two of the tests whereas the GTX

00:03:42.920 --> 00:03:49.120
580 outperforms the 560 TI in one of the

00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:51.040
3D Vision tests so what that means to me

00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:56.040
especially given the narrow margin of victory for either solution is that

00:03:53.280 --> 00:04:00.959
these are similar in performance in 3D Vision so what's interesting about that

00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:06.239
though is that I actually found the 560 TI solution to be slightly less playable

00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:10.360
that is the dips were lower and the Peaks were higher resulting in a similar

00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:16.160
average frame rate but a less satisfactory overall experience so what

00:04:13.239 --> 00:04:20.320
I would probably choose for a purely 3D Vision gaming experience is the GTX 580

00:04:19.280 --> 00:04:26.000
now this contrasts with the results that I was

00:04:22.919 --> 00:04:28.720
able to achieve with the 560s and SLI in

00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:33.759
my other video where I was not running stereoscopic 3 and the 560s despite

00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:38.960
their similar price point actually destroy the GTX 580 that is in

00:04:36.919 --> 00:04:44.000
traditional 3D gaming that is not stereoscopic and does not involve these

00:04:41.440 --> 00:04:49.280
glasses so before we finish up here just want to show you guys the test platform

00:04:45.880 --> 00:04:52.080
that I used so I'm using an Intel x25 M

00:04:49.280 --> 00:05:01.400
80 gig SSD for my boot drive I'm using an MSI p67a gd65 Motherboard I'm using

00:04:57.440 --> 00:05:05.240
an Intel Core i7 2600 K processor it is

00:05:01.400 --> 00:05:07.919
overclocked to 4.7 GHz so that I can

00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:13.680
avoid as much as possible any CPU bottlenecks and then I have 8 gigs of

00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:17.039
mushkin Redline ridgeback

00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:19.199
memory in order to well have memory for

00:05:17.039 --> 00:05:28.000
the system so thank you for checking out my video on the 3D Vision gaming

00:05:21.280 --> 00:05:28.000
experience with the GeForce GTX 560 TI
