1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,879
i have some great news for anyone out there who ran out and bought two of

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:13,280
NVIDIA's collector's edition titan xp star wars graphics cards for a total of

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:14,400
twenty four hundred dollars to run an

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:19,039
sli and that is

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:24,800
that the new titan v which will actually outperform that

6
00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:25,340
configuration in many games for just 600

7
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:30,960
more doesn't

8
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:35,040
have any star wars branding on it whatsoever

9
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:40,000
so as long as you buy your card purely for star wars and not for performance

10
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:45,600
you should feel pretty good right now okay now technically

11
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:51,840
this box has already been opened because Anthony is already hard at work on our

12
00:00:48,879 --> 00:00:55,360
full review of this card but i still wanted to go through the unboxing

13
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:59,680
experience with you guys because damn it i spent three thousand

14
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:04,159
dollars on this graphics card so i intend to milk it to the fullest extent

15
00:01:02,719 --> 00:01:09,520
that i can and to that end

16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:12,960
nope not working okay here we go so it comes with some documentation

17
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:16,720
including a quick start guide and a support guide that's actually unusual

18
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:20,640
for these uh well right this isn't a sample card i

19
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,920
was going to say the samples never come with these uh

20
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:28,240
okay that's not very interesting titan v

21
00:01:26,479 --> 00:01:34,240
support guide okay yeah well that's not very interesting

22
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:38,960
either uh it also comes with one of these i'm not sure what it is yet

23
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:43,040
but it better be gold

24
00:01:41,439 --> 00:01:45,759
just like the card because if i'm gonna spend

25
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:49,200
three thousand dollars on a graphics card everything should be

26
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:55,759
silver silver DisplayPort to dvi adapter

27
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:59,040
hey if i intended to do that it was a good shot all right

28
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,799
and then we've got it right here

29
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:06,719
the titan v graphics card so

30
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:10,800
what do they have to say for themselves oh right 5

31
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:17,920
120 cuda cores so compared to the titan

32
00:02:14,959 --> 00:02:23,840
xp which is an incredibly powerful card in its own right that's got 3

33
00:02:21,239 --> 00:02:30,160
3840 cuda core so we are expecting this to be 20 25 faster right out of the gate

34
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:34,640
then it has the same amount of memory 12 gigs

35
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:35,599
but it's using hbm2 memory so that is

36
00:02:34,640 --> 00:02:41,040
much much faster which may or may not have a

37
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:46,000
ton of applicability in gaming but will definitely help with the titan v's

38
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:51,920
intended use case which is apparently like deep learning uh ai

39
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:58,640
and really the same kinds of workloads as NVIDIA's v100 as NVIDIA's v100 the

40
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:03,360
only card that they've got on the market already using this same volta

41
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:08,319
architecture now you guys might be looking at

42
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:10,560
a 3 000 graphics card here going well

43
00:03:08,319 --> 00:03:13,840
that's an unreasonable amount of money and

44
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:19,840
i would be inclined to agree with you but compared to that tesla v100 it's

45
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:24,480
actually less than a third of the price with much of the same capability so it

46
00:03:22,239 --> 00:03:29,599
is a little bit slower and as you can see here the nv link fingers that you

47
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:34,959
probably saw previously when we showed off the gp100 are actually covered and

48
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:40,000
to our knowledge they are disabled so it does not support nvlink

49
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:44,480
but other than that for someone working on you know an ai type workload on a

50
00:03:42,959 --> 00:03:51,040
desktop this aims to be the ultimate experience

51
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:54,400
with all that said you guys want to see it game i'm sure so

52
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:58,080
so i'm going to save the detailed run-through of our entire test suite for

53
00:03:56,239 --> 00:04:04,080
Anthony's review but i still want to have a quick look at how the titan v

54
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:07,640
compares to the titan xp so here's the

55
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:10,480
settings we're using in gta 5 uh 3840 by

56
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:13,680
2160 i will change that to full screen but

57
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:18,799
in terms of what settings we're using fxaa

58
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:21,440
very high or high sort of across the

59
00:04:18,799 --> 00:04:26,000
board here tessellation high and then all the advanced stuff turned on

60
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:29,520
so i've already got my numbers for the titan xp

61
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:34,880
let's go ahead and shut this baby down and get a new graphics card installed

62
00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:38,320
you know i gotta say i am not

63
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:43,600
a huge fan of the gold id

64
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:49,040
it really smacks of well apple's doing it

65
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:53,280
but not in a tasteful way like this is

66
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:56,960
by far NVIDIA's tackiest looking graphics card

67
00:04:54,880 --> 00:05:02,080
in the last you know three four years anyway

68
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,080
it's really ugly

69
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:08,000
like look and i like i realize this is

70
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:14,880
maybe seemingly insignificant complaint

71
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:17,440
for something that's designed for professional use

72
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:24,960
um and is you know capable of gaming but it's really a professional card

73
00:05:21,919 --> 00:05:26,080
but at this kind of price it should be

74
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:31,840
perfect there it is there's our titan v powered up for the

75
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:36,639
first time ever only 3 000 us dollars

76
00:05:35,039 --> 00:05:42,639
i think it included free shipping though so ah here we go

77
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,639
the first image it's ever output

78
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:48,400
it's like when we think about how long we're actually going to use this card

79
00:05:46,479 --> 00:05:52,800
because we bought it strictly for comparative testing like benchmarking

80
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:56,639
against other things like it's costing me you know a dollar per minute to run

81
00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:01,199
it so i'm gonna

82
00:05:59,759 --> 00:06:03,840
take it in i need a drink

83
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,240
no water left

84
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,000
it's out for solid water

85
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,759
come on

86
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:32,400
all right so i'm just dialing in my settings here because grand theft auto

87
00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:34,800
is a giant piece of crap when it comes

88
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:40,000
to actually remembering what you want

89
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:43,280
apply and

90
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,400
benchmark benchmark tests

91
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:52,800
i haven't actually looked at any results that are online yet so this will be my

92
00:06:51,919 --> 00:06:57,520
first experience titan xp with storm

93
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:01,280
versus titan v wow listen to that coil line

94
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:04,479
you hear that listen to it so there's a black screen

95
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,960
right now listen to it when i hear i'll get in close

96
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,919
wait for it

97
00:07:15,199 --> 00:07:20,479
i'm trying really hard i'm trying hard

98
00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:23,680
yeah we got it it's kind of crazy to think that we've

99
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:28,400
gotten to the point though where running grand theft auto at 4k

100
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,880
at very high settings is maybe

101
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,720
not demanding enough to see a huge

102
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,199
separation between graphics cards we might even be CPU limited a little bit

103
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:41,520
here even though i'm running a 5960x extreme

104
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:47,759
edition all right

105
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:51,599
so oh wow uh

106
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:55,120
okay so just so you guys know this is where you're looking

107
00:07:53,199 --> 00:08:00,160
um uh

108
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:02,400
wow that is not better um

109
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,400
so

110
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:10,879
we can't draw any really concrete conclusions right now this is one game

111
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:15,520
at one resolution against one other card and one set of

112
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:21,680
in-game settings um but what we can say for certain is

113
00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:24,639
that right now the titan v is not a

114
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:30,879
great value compared even to NVIDIA's titan xp which is not a great value

115
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:32,399
compared to the 1080 ti

116
00:08:30,879 --> 00:08:37,839
with that said the word on the street is that NVIDIA is

117
00:08:34,560 --> 00:08:40,000
planning an architecture that's sort of

118
00:08:37,839 --> 00:08:44,480
based on some of the same principles as volta but that doesn't have some of the

119
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:49,040
deep learning like tensor core stuff built into it so that it can be a little

120
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:55,600
bit less expensive and hopefully we're gonna see that sometime in 2018

121
00:08:53,200 --> 00:09:01,440
but for now titan v is not a card for gamers

122
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:06,560
as expected so thanks for watching this uh unboxing

123
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:11,600
and um lesson on

124
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,399
buyer's remorse is it a lesson did we learn anything

125
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:18,560
anyway if you disliked the video you can hit that button but if you liked it hit like get subscribed maybe consider

126
00:09:17,279 --> 00:09:22,560
checking out where to buy the stuff we featured if you're like a deep learning

127
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:25,279
scientist at the link in the video description also down there is our merch

128
00:09:23,839 --> 00:09:28,880
storage has cool shirts like this one and our community forum
