1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:08,320
so got my usual thing going on here with the length comparisons and the whatnots

2
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:14,639
so this is for the Radeon HT 6990 which as you guys may or may not

3
00:00:11,559 --> 00:00:18,320
know already is one

4
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:21,960
huge video card so it is

5
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:24,760
exactly 1T long pretty

6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:31,240
much pretty much exactly yes that's the word I was looking for okay which makes

7
00:00:27,039 --> 00:00:33,680
it 30 1/2 cm long from the PCI back

8
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:38,800
plate all the way to the very end so this Compares quite favorably with

9
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:43,000
probably only one other card the 50970 which is the same length however

10
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:46,520
if we take some other cards like the single GPU

11
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:53,000
6970 which is just short of 11 in Long

12
00:00:50,360 --> 00:01:02,120
work our way down to the GTX 580 which is 10 and 1/2 in long then down to the

13
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:04,879
6870 which is 9 and 78 in long and then

14
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:11,240
finally I've got a GTX 460 Hawk Edition here just for context uh so it's either

15
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:13,520
9 1/2 in long or it's stuck on there 9

16
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:20,119
and 1/2 in long with the Shroud or actually if you go by the PCB it is only

17
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:24,479
about 8 1/2 in long so that makes the

18
00:01:20,119 --> 00:01:27,560
6970 or 6990 rather sorry the 6990 one

19
00:01:24,479 --> 00:01:29,000
of the largest cards ever made for the

20
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:33,439
consumer Market it's also one of the heaviest it's quite a heavy card

21
00:01:31,119 --> 00:01:38,720
although not compared to the ASUS Aries for example which is even heavier it's

22
00:01:35,759 --> 00:01:43,759
got a shrouded back plate and yes it is quite long so if we were to measure this

23
00:01:41,119 --> 00:01:50,920
in terms of cat lengths see I got a cat here eating my

24
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:53,600
garbage hey please don't eat

25
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:59,280
that see please don't knock over my garbage and eat it okay come here Cat

26
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:02,759
come on it's hard to grab a cat W have a

27
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:05,399
camera hanging around me there he is

28
00:02:02,759 --> 00:02:09,479
okay come on stay up there okay so in terms of cat

29
00:02:07,119 --> 00:02:18,800
lengths the 6990 is approximately oh okay about

30
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:21,280
about 665 of a cat so there you

31
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:24,800
go that is my new unit of measurement that I have

32
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:31,840
invented and that is my length video about the radon HD 6990 don't forget to
