00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:09.840
so my plan today was supposed to be an update on the dual

00:00:06.879 --> 00:00:16.080
socket 56 core machine i got my heatsink from super micro i got

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:17.039
my instructions

00:00:16.080 --> 00:00:22.240
at this color color instructions

00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:26.880
wow amazing i got my cooler

00:00:24.080 --> 00:00:31.119
and i specifically said i specifically said

00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:32.800
the motherboard uses the square ilm it

00:00:31.119 --> 00:00:38.800
doesn't match up because these are for the narrow ilm and

00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:41.600
the motherboard uses the square ilm

00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:41.600
and i cried

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:48.640
first i was sad and then i was mad

00:00:45.680 --> 00:00:52.640
and then i was super excited because i actually had something that might even

00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:57.280
be cooler to show off to you guys so check this out this is

00:00:54.960 --> 00:01:03.199
the world's highest box to card size ratio

00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:07.600
video card that has existed in at least 10 years because this used to be a thing

00:01:05.199 --> 00:01:10.960
like i remember back when ASUS would have video card boxes that were

00:01:09.360 --> 00:01:17.280
literally like this big chain tech like those companies they had

00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:19.200
these giant boxes and the idea was that

00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:25.439
they were too cheap to buy shelf space to buy frontage space

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:29.280
in the retail stores right because that's what you have to do that's how

00:01:26.960 --> 00:01:35.280
the retail industry works they were too cheap to buy the placements so they just

00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:37.439
made these gigantic boxes so they

00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:41.280
wouldn't have to pay but they would have to get a ton of space on the shelf isn't

00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:45.200
it brilliant i mean where's chaintec at today right

00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:52.720
anyway so zotac has apparently just reused a box

00:01:49.600 --> 00:01:53.680
from an existing gtx 1080 ti you would

00:01:52.720 --> 00:01:59.600
think except that this arctic storm thing here that looks

00:01:57.759 --> 00:02:03.040
like a sticker in this mini these aren't stickers they specifically went out of

00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:09.119
their way to create this this gigantic box

00:02:06.240 --> 00:02:12.800
for this tiny graphics card but

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:19.280
its size should not should not dissuade you it should not

00:02:16.239 --> 00:02:22.480
tell you anything about its power

00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:26.400
because this is a full-fledged

00:02:22.480 --> 00:02:29.200
gtx 1080 ti

00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:33.519
and it is the size of like a 1050

00:02:32.720 --> 00:02:40.160
so zotac has not only engineered a full

00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:47.680
1080 ti into something that is the same size as their previous 1080 mini

00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:50.080
they have also created a fully custom

00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:53.760
water cooling solution so you can see here they've got

00:02:51.519 --> 00:02:59.280
they've got coverage for the vrms right here they've got pads on the memory

00:02:56.879 --> 00:03:03.200
modules right here and right down this side and then they've got a GPU contact

00:03:01.440 --> 00:03:08.800
area for the 1080 ti so they have created a fully custom water block

00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:14.640
solution for it as well now i do have some misgivings about

00:03:12.480 --> 00:03:18.640
their water block design it does not appear to be

00:03:17.040 --> 00:03:23.360
all copper which depending on your loop

00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:27.440
configuration may be an issue for you or may not

00:03:24.640 --> 00:03:31.200
i'm actually a huge fan of what ek's done with their aluminum lineup of

00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:35.440
products all aluminum products that are lower cost and designed to go together

00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:40.560
but if you're mixing and matching you can run into issues even if you use

00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:44.000
anti-corrosive additives

00:03:41.760 --> 00:03:48.319
so what all we got here we do get a dvi port we get

00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:53.599
three displayport ports we get one HDMI we get a slightly taller than a pci

00:03:50.799 --> 00:03:57.439
bracket pcb so they have cheated a little bit there but you got to kind of

00:03:55.519 --> 00:04:02.799
give them give them that because realistically with all this space on the

00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:06.480
top for the connections you were i mean you were going to have to have a bit

00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:11.280
more space above the card in your case anyway now one thing i wish they had

00:04:08.640 --> 00:04:14.640
done was rather than come out this way i wish that they had gone with fittings on

00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:18.959
the top and on the bottom like this but again

00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:23.840
i'm you know i got to go easy on them dual 8 pin connectors so i would expect

00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:27.840
to be able to overclock the stuffing out of this thing and uh in terms of

00:04:26.080 --> 00:04:33.199
included accessories they got a couple six to eight pins and then they've got a

00:04:29.919 --> 00:04:35.120
couple of three eighths inch fittings um

00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:40.000
i remember i still remember back when half inch fittings used to be the the

00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:41.600
cat's pajamas and oh interesting i think

00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:44.720
these are aluminum okay so yeah it's aluminum block

00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:48.320
intended to be used with aluminum products i would recommend or at the

00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:53.120
very least make sure you use a healthy mix of anti-corrosive additive

00:04:50.880 --> 00:04:56.720
all right so to fully appreciate the scale of this thing i want to show it

00:04:54.880 --> 00:05:02.639
next to a couple of other cards first of all here is a titan xp

00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:06.240
collector's edition so

00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:09.440
it is that much shorter it is a little bit taller

00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:14.800
see this there we go so it is a little bit taller

00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:18.400
but it should theoretically actually that

00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:22.720
would be really interesting it should only take up a single PCIe slot if you

00:05:20.880 --> 00:05:26.720
were to cut off the dvi port like we did in our single slot titan mod then

00:05:24.880 --> 00:05:30.800
compared to one of the most ginormous graphics cards of all time the 6990 this

00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:34.960
thing has way more power much smaller size and

00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:39.520
it'll run completely silently assuming that you have a water cooling lube

00:05:37.520 --> 00:05:42.400
whoa so there you have it

00:05:40.960 --> 00:05:47.680
i don't really have a standard outro for these classic unboxings subscribe and

00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:51.880
like and maybe we'll run the credits if someone other than me chops it together
