00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:07,279
for quite a while now whenever I review an NVIDIA GPU I will state right at the

2
00:00:05,279 --> 00:00:12,320
start of the video how fast the graphics card was in terms of core clock speed

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:17,400
and memory clock speed and for quite a while now those numbers have really

4
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:23,640
never been correct representations of how fast the card ran even when it

5
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:25,710
wasn't overclocked what's to blame GPU

6
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:30,530
boost

7
00:00:33,559 --> 00:00:40,000
the Logitech g303 features a lightweight design an advanced Optical sensor with

8
00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:44,800
Delta zero technology for precise tracking and RGB lighting to match your

9
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:49,719
setup click now to learn more now NVIDIA claims that their GPU Boost 2.0

10
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:54,480
technology extracts every ounce of computing power from compatible NVIDIA

11
00:00:51,760 --> 00:01:01,600
graphics cards which results in a maximizing of frame rates in each and

12
00:00:57,239 --> 00:01:04,280
every game DM and that GPU Boost 2.0 is

13
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:08,280
faster and more flexible than 1.0 giving users more control over its

14
00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:14,320
configuration that's what NVIDIA claims so okay but what does all that actually

15
00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:17,479
mean well the whole idea of GPU boost is

16
00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:19,439
for it to be an overclocking assistant

17
00:01:17,479 --> 00:01:24,280
what we'll be exploring today is the effects that it has on your graphics

18
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:26,439
card when you do nothing at all um but

19
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:30,520
it does change things if you happen to tweak settings especially voltage and

20
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:35,520
thermal limit and Power power limit stuff like that but that's a long story

21
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:39,720
as well and we may explore that later in a future video if you guys are

22
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:44,560
interested so hit the like button to let me know GPU boost increases these things

23
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:50,040
automatically by detecting if an application would be able to properly

24
00:01:47,320 --> 00:01:54,799
utilize additional graphics performance then as long as you have the additional

25
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:57,560
headro in both thermal output and power

26
00:01:54,799 --> 00:02:01,320
draw uh you're going to be good to go for gpus to kind of do its thing

27
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:05,640
attempting to increase your various clock speeds in order to give you the

28
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:09,280
additional performance you can use without any intervention intervention

29
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:14,160
from you now you're probably thinking the effects of this must be quite small

30
00:02:11,959 --> 00:02:17,680
and insignificant with graphics cards being advertised all over the place with

31
00:02:15,640 --> 00:02:22,080
their based in boost clock speeds isn't the Boost clock speed as advertised just

32
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:29,360
what the GPU is going to boost to anyways well kind of but also totally

33
00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:34,440
not at all you'd never expect a manufactur or for that matter a retailer

34
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:39,040
to undersell their product but what's kind of exactly Happening Here is that

35
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:43,640
they're doing just that the Gigabyte G1 gaming 90 TI that I reviewed a while

36
00:02:41,159 --> 00:02:49,519
back you can check the video up here it had an advertised base clock speed of

37
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:54,360
1190 with an additional advertised boost clock speed of 101 more than that which

38
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:59,599
was 1,291 now why do I find this super

39
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:03,599
interesting well for a few reasons to beon honest reason one is that you'll

40
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:09,000
never really see that base clock speed anyway essentially any game will cause

41
00:03:05,640 --> 00:03:13,519
GPU boost to kick in so whatever next up

42
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:16,120
is that super specific boost clock of

43
00:03:13,519 --> 00:03:21,760
1291 with a number that specific you'd expect it to be exactly 12291 but as we

44
00:03:20,519 --> 00:03:27,760
discovered in that video it was a massive increase of 79 MHz to an actual

45
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:34,120
final boost clock speed of 13370 so why not aage Iz 1370 did they

46
00:03:31,439 --> 00:03:39,280
not know it would be this fast or much more likely than that were they making a

47
00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:42,400
conservative guess and this is where our

48
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:46,040
testing began I needed a ton of the same

49
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:48,080
GPU that all had GPU 2.0 technology and

50
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:53,079
that's not exactly a cheap proposition to make luckily NVIDIA was already

51
00:03:50,439 --> 00:03:57,239
sending us six freaking Titan X cards only four featured here um they sent it

52
00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,680
our way so that we could do system upgrades for the editors and I took the

53
00:03:59,239 --> 00:04:04,840
opportunity to both build the compensator system the build of log the

54
00:04:02,599 --> 00:04:11,360
build log of which you can see here and do my testing for GPU boost the results

55
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,640
were kind of awesome to be honest each

56
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:17,519
card has its average range of core clock speeds that it would move between the

57
00:04:15,879 --> 00:04:23,440
first interesting observation here is that the lowest fluctuation on the

58
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:26,360
lowest boosting card was still 13 MHz

59
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:30,520
faster than the advertised boost clock speed of a Titan X from NVIDIA these are

60
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:36,600
all referenced cards the second observation is that the highest of the

61
00:04:32,479 --> 00:04:40,039
average fluctuations was 54 MHz above

62
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:42,840
the advertised even with every single

63
00:04:40,039 --> 00:04:47,080
Titan X hitting a thermal wall of 83° underload in conclusion I personally

64
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:52,440
think that was damn interesting but it was a little bit disappointing that we

65
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:54,639
ran into the exact same thermal wall on

66
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:58,400
every single car due to the high heat producing Titan X and a reference cooler

67
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:02,080
we could have increased our thermal limit but I want to what these cards

68
00:05:00,199 --> 00:05:07,800
would do without any changes happening to them and honestly I'm not a huge fan

69
00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:14,160
of running cards that hot anyways so no major loss there it was also interesting

70
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:17,280
that the maximum clock speed of 1139 was

71
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:19,120
hit by four out of the six cards for

72
00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:23,479
stage two if you guys are interested and I can get different cards I'd like to

73
00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:26,880
try this again but with better cooled cards maybe some aftermarket coolers and

74
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:30,919
stuff but playing with some overclocking settings would be fun as well I'd like

75
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:35,639
to explore the idea of hardcoded maximums what settings changes produce

76
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:40,360
the biggest results automatically from GPU boost and GPU boost overclocking

77
00:05:38,199 --> 00:05:44,639
versus manual overclocking so don't forget to hit that like button if you're

78
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:49,520
interested so I can try to acquire those additional cards speaking of stuff and

79
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:54,199
things Dollar Shave Club Dollar Shave Club is a great way to get razors and

80
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:58,199
other various bathroom supplies shipped directly to your door for only a few

81
00:05:56,280 --> 00:06:02,919
bucks a month the razors are high quality and we have a ton of community

82
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:07,599
members men and women alike who use them every day and love smooth shave that

83
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:12,479
they get no matter how thick or coarse their facial hair may be for some reason

84
00:06:10,199 --> 00:06:16,759
this comes to a shock to many people but yes even though I have facial hair I do

85
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:20,360
shave and I would have a pretty beastly neck beard if I did not i' definitely

86
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:24,759
say that the shave I get from Dollar Shave clubs razors is pretty damn nice

87
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:28,240
on top of their razors they also have Dr Carver's shave butter which goes on

88
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:33,240
smooth and clear so you can see what you're doing and their Peppa scented
