1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:07,279
so this graphics card is $500 and delivers some pretty Elite hacks or FPS

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:11,480
look I don't care it doesn't matter the point is that it's the cat's pajamas and

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:16,440
it's got a price tag that reflects that to which you might reply oh that's

4
00:00:13,719 --> 00:00:20,199
nothing lus there's this other sick gfx card I bet it's going to get so much

5
00:00:18,199 --> 00:00:24,439
more FPS I think I know what you're talking

6
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:30,679
about and I do see how the logic works this one's $500 and this one's 5,000 so

7
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:33,040
like it must get 10 times more FPS right

8
00:00:30,679 --> 00:00:37,079
sorry no it won't a little bit of Investigation about this particular card

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:42,920
reveals that the actual Graphics core powering it is the very same GK 110 as

10
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:47,199
you would find in a regular old GTX 780 at one10 of the price and while PC

11
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:51,360
Hardware maybe powered by Magic blue smoke no amount of magic makes a chip

12
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:55,079
with the same design manufactured on the same process node perform that much

13
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:59,680
better than the same thing on another card all right so fine lus I get it

14
00:00:57,879 --> 00:01:03,359
these aren't a great value for gaming but this makes no sense um if they're

15
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:08,320
basically the same thing why does one cost $5,000 well there are a few reasons

16
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:12,600
but the biggest one is that the Target customers for this product large content

17
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:17,240
Production Studios oil and resource exploration firms and the like have a

18
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:20,759
lot more money than you and me and these products help them make so many more

19
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:25,040
bucket loads of money that they can easily justify the cost so NVIDIA would

20
00:01:23,119 --> 00:01:29,119
be crazy not to take advantage of that and besides a Quadro and a GeForce

21
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:33,439
running the same chip aren't quite the same thing for St ERS NVIDIA controls

22
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:37,399
the specifications and quality assurance on all Quadro cards unlike GeForce cards

23
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:42,439
which are left to the board Partners so you're going to get more DisplayPort outputs uh unique form factors like

24
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:46,000
single Slot Cards and professional grade Hardware validation starting at its

25
00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:49,560
heart a Quadro is going to get a GPU that is cherry-picked for the best

26
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:53,399
reliability lowest power consumption and lowest heat output then it's going to

27
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:56,960
get equipped with a larger video memory frame buffer that features error

28
00:01:54,960 --> 00:02:00,560
correction technology following that it's going to get special drivers that

29
00:01:58,479 --> 00:02:04,439
are validated for seamless operation with the professional grade applications

30
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:08,720
that these kinds of cards work best for 3D modeling animation and such and

31
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:13,280
finally Quadro cards have one key feature enabled in manufacturing that

32
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:17,480
lies dormant on most GeForce cards with Titan being the only current exception

33
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:21,120
double Precision floating Point capabilities put all these things

34
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:24,959
together and you've got a card that is less susceptible to random errors Works

35
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:28,640
more reliably and for longer and can perform calculations and draw images

36
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:32,519
with a much greater degree of precision than its consumer grade counterpart now

37
00:02:30,879 --> 00:02:36,360
this is the part where you probably want to jump in and say well hold on a second

38
00:02:33,959 --> 00:02:40,560
lonus none of that really sounds like it justifies the extra expense it seems

39
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:45,879
like NVIDIA is actually kneecapping the consumer cards as opposed to drizzling

40
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:48,280
special sauce on the pro ones and I'm a

41
00:02:45,879 --> 00:02:52,680
let you finish but actually yeah I can't really argue with that assessment what I

42
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:57,400
will say in defense of this practice is that a the prograde stuff does

43
00:02:54,640 --> 00:03:00,480
legitimately cost some more to make B Gamers don't really need this stuff I

44
00:02:59,319 --> 00:03:06,239
mean did you ever actually sit there going well jeez if only the position of my character's head could have been

45
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:11,319
calculated to 15 decimal places and see everyone does it this paintbrush is made

46
00:03:09,519 --> 00:03:16,080
of the same hair from an animal's rear end as some consumer grade one it's a

47
00:03:13,879 --> 00:03:19,799
bit better and it costs a lot more at least something positive comes out of

48
00:03:17,959 --> 00:03:24,680
this practice when it comes to Tech though Pros paying top dollar for gear

49
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:27,840
gives Innovative companies the R&D money that they need to deliver better

50
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:31,879
products for us consumers down the road so even though we can't afford that card

51
00:03:29,599 --> 00:03:36,200
that suitable for complex weather simulations today at least a year from

52
00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:40,000
now our games will run faster than ever and we can thank the folks who spend a

53
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:43,640
lots of money on quadros and fire GLS and other professional great equipment

54
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:47,400
for that speaking of saying thanks our sponsor for today's episode is one that

55
00:03:45,319 --> 00:03:50,680
we hold very dear around here since without it the Charming gentleman
