00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:06,319
NVIDIA brought us down here to LA to check out something pretty freaking

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:07,720
interesting a GeForce GTX 980 now why is

3
00:00:06,319 --> 00:00:14,559
that interesting we've had these for a while it's in a laptop and no it doesn't

4
00:00:10,719 --> 00:00:14,559
have a little M denomination after

5
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:28,359
it so yes it is a full desktop GPU it

6
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:31,640
has 2048 cacor a base clock of 1126 a

7
00:00:28,359 --> 00:00:34,239
boost clock of 1216 a memory clock of 6

8
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:41,559
GBS per second which you just don't see in laptops 4 GB of memory a 256bit

9
00:00:38,480 --> 00:00:44,680
interface width and yeah it's seriously

10
00:00:41,559 --> 00:00:47,719
a 980 in a laptop NVIDIA unsurprisingly

11
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:50,039
is binning specific 980 chips for this

12
00:00:47,719 --> 00:00:53,960
because they need good well- bend 980s for this because it has to sit in the

13
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:58,160
laptop it has to fit within certain specifications also they're going to be

14
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:02,640
in laptops that have four to eight phase power supplies which is beast mode and

15
00:01:01,039 --> 00:01:07,640
not something you're used to seeing on a laptop often you see two to three phase

16
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:11,640
power supplies not 4 to8 uh it has record braking performance on air which

17
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:15,000
is not very surprising but we'll see what people can do to it down the line

18
00:01:13,799 --> 00:01:19,520
and they're going to be working with laptop manufacturers to have it so that

19
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:23,320
the CPU and the GPU are fully unlocked and overclocking ready they're also

20
00:01:21,759 --> 00:01:28,280
working with those laptop manufacturers to pump more cooling options into these

21
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:32,119
units up to 50% more apparently in some use cases and that should help because

22
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:35,600
you'll be able to tweak fan speed profiles if you want to go really loud

23
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,720
and get more overclocking great if you want to be quieter and maybe get a

24
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:42,600
little bit less overclocking that's great as well in terms of overclocking

25
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:46,000
you'll be able to change core clock speeds and memory clock speeds like I

26
00:01:44,119 --> 00:01:49,320
mentioned earlier but not power limit or voltage limit as it's a laptop and

27
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:55,399
messing with those things can be a little bit more dangerous than on a desktop where you will have more leeway

28
00:01:53,399 --> 00:01:58,159
now they were serious about this and actually let me tinker and mess around

29
00:01:56,799 --> 00:02:02,799
with some of the laptops which is pretty freaking cool I was able to bench Mark a

30
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:07,920
thinner kind of Gigabyte aorus laptop aoris X7 which was pretty badass and a

31
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:11,640
thicker Cleo on the other side so alongside of those I tested a normal

32
00:02:09,679 --> 00:02:17,160
system which had a kind of generalized setup and a desktop 980 in it and we got

33
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:21,480
to see the performance numbers in things like fire strike extreme Tomb Raider

34
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:24,840
Shadow of Mordor and Metro last Light which was pretty impressive because they

35
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:30,560
claimed that there would be about a Delta of maybe 5% and in a lot of cases

36
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:33,760
it was less than that these system were really really close and that's even

37
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:39,239
considering other components in these laptops like CPU which you have to take

38
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:43,440
into the equation here so it's badass it's a full desktop GPU and a laptop and

39
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:49,120
it actually runs properly and it's overclockable on top of that impressive

40
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:53,879
but what else is there also to GeForce experience they are bringing VR

41
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:58,120
optimization so at the 950 we saw low latency optimization for stuff like

42
00:02:55,840 --> 00:03:01,040
mobas and there's normal optimization which is more well-rounded and then

43
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:05,680
we're we're going to be seeing VR optimization which is pretty awesome so

44
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,560
the idea behind this is tweaking your settings is something that a lot of

45
00:03:06,799 --> 00:03:13,560
people like doing and one of the reasons why someone may not actually use GeForce

46
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:17,400
experience others like it others don't but in VR I think that line is going to

47
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:21,640
blur a little bit more because tweaking settings is going to be very annoying

48
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:25,640
when you strap a screen to your face and then something's wrong you can get sick

49
00:03:23,599 --> 00:03:29,360
or it can be pretty disturbing very quickly so knowing that everything's

50
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:31,720
just going to kind of work is a pretty big benefit

51
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:35,400
