00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:06.319
NVIDIA brought us down here to LA to check out something pretty freaking

00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:07.720
interesting a GeForce GTX 980 now why is

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

00:00:10.719 --> 00:00:14.559
have a little M denomination after

00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:28.359
it so yes it is a full desktop GPU it

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:31.640
has 2048 cacor a base clock of 1126 a

00:00:28.359 --> 00:00:34.239
boost clock of 1216 a memory clock of 6

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

00:00:38.480 --> 00:00:44.680
interface width and yeah it's seriously

00:00:41.559 --> 00:00:47.719
a 980 in a laptop NVIDIA unsurprisingly

00:00:44.680 --> 00:00:50.039
is binning specific 980 chips for this

00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:53.960
because they need good well- bend 980s for this because it has to sit in the

00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:58.160
laptop it has to fit within certain specifications also they're going to be

00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:02.640
in laptops that have four to eight phase power supplies which is beast mode and

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

00:01:04.720 --> 00:01:11.640
power supplies not 4 to8 uh it has record braking performance on air which

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

00:01:13.799 --> 00:01:19.520
and they're going to be working with laptop manufacturers to have it so that

00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:23.320
the CPU and the GPU are fully unlocked and overclocking ready they're also

00:01:21.759 --> 00:01:28.280
working with those laptop manufacturers to pump more cooling options into these

00:01:25.600 --> 00:01:32.119
units up to 50% more apparently in some use cases and that should help because

00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:35.600
you'll be able to tweak fan speed profiles if you want to go really loud

00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:38.720
and get more overclocking great if you want to be quieter and maybe get a

00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:42.600
little bit less overclocking that's great as well in terms of overclocking

00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:46.000
you'll be able to change core clock speeds and memory clock speeds like I

00:01:44.119 --> 00:01:49.320
mentioned earlier but not power limit or voltage limit as it's a laptop and

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

00:01:53.399 --> 00:01:58.159
now they were serious about this and actually let me tinker and mess around

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

00:02:00.360 --> 00:02:07.920
thinner kind of Gigabyte aorus laptop aoris X7 which was pretty badass and a

00:02:05.240 --> 00:02:11.640
thicker Cleo on the other side so alongside of those I tested a normal

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

00:02:14.760 --> 00:02:21.480
to see the performance numbers in things like fire strike extreme Tomb Raider

00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:24.840
Shadow of Mordor and Metro last Light which was pretty impressive because they

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

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:33.760
it was less than that these system were really really close and that's even

00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:39.239
considering other components in these laptops like CPU which you have to take

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

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:49.120
it actually runs properly and it's overclockable on top of that impressive

00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:53.879
but what else is there also to GeForce experience they are bringing VR

00:02:51.040 --> 00:02:58.120
optimization so at the 950 we saw low latency optimization for stuff like

00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:01.040
mobas and there's normal optimization which is more well-rounded and then

00:02:59.640 --> 00:03:05.680
we're we're going to be seeing VR optimization which is pretty awesome so

00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:08.560
the idea behind this is tweaking your settings is something that a lot of

00:03:06.799 --> 00:03:13.560
people like doing and one of the reasons why someone may not actually use GeForce

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

00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:21.640
blur a little bit more because tweaking settings is going to be very annoying

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

00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:29.360
or it can be pretty disturbing very quickly so knowing that everything's

00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:31.720
just going to kind of work is a pretty big benefit

00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:35.400
