00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:07,799
this video is brought to you by the Intel Core i5 4670k unlocked processor

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:12,480
add an Intel 520 series SSD to your Haswell system for unbelievable overall

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:18,240
performance welcome to my unboxing and first look at the GeForce GTX 770

4
00:00:15,359 --> 00:00:22,640
windforce OC version according to Gigabyte here from Gigabyte this is as

5
00:00:21,279 --> 00:00:28,240
you may or may not have figured out by now a GeForce gtx770 it is overclocked

6
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:33,840
and more importantly than the factory overclock it has gigabytes windforce

7
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:40,120
cooler so their windforce cooler uses a triple fan design each of these fans

8
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:41,800
being 75 mm in diameter as well as one

9
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:48,120
of the beefiest come on out there we go as well

10
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:51,559
as one of the beefiest heat sink designs that I have ever seen but I'm not going

11
00:00:49,719 --> 00:00:56,640
to let you feas oriz on the card just yet I'm going to make you look at oh wow

12
00:00:54,440 --> 00:01:03,559
look at them accessories is that two Molex to PCI Express adapters wow wow

13
00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:04,799
one six pin 18 pin so cool next oh is

14
00:01:03,559 --> 00:01:09,159
that a driver disc wing and quick graphics card

15
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:14,080
installation guide although if you don't like gigabytes installation guide then you can check out my installation guide

16
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:18,200
which is a video which is obviously better cuz videos are awesome all right

17
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:26,079
so the cooler itself there's your three 75 mm fans all right there is your

18
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:28,159
massive array of heat sink fins so check

19
00:01:26,079 --> 00:01:32,280
this out you have a huge block of fins over here on the left a huge block of

20
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:36,960
fins over here on the right you can also see from the side over here there are

21
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:41,560
five heat pipes coming out this side so two of them are 8 mm heat pipes so these

22
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:45,960
are massive thick heat pipes and then the other four of the heat pipes that

23
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:49,320
are on the card itself are 6 mm heat pipes so you can see which direction

24
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:53,240
they're all going in actually five of them go off this way and then one of

25
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:58,039
them loops around and comes out this side in order to effectively spread the

26
00:01:55,520 --> 00:02:00,880
heat away from the GPU itself and then onto the rest of the components now

27
00:01:59,439 --> 00:02:05,159
Gigabyte has done a couple of unique things to improve the efficiency of the

28
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:08,119
cooler so number one is they have added this triangle shape is what they're

29
00:02:06,719 --> 00:02:11,560
calling it it's not quite a triangle because it has a flat top and I hope you

30
00:02:10,119 --> 00:02:16,720
guys can see this so if you check this out there's a flat top there and then

31
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:19,680
there are angled uh angled pieces that are going to cause the air flow to be

32
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:23,680
more directed than you would have normally seen with a windforce cooler in

33
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:27,760
the past so what this will do is it'll take the air flow and it'll bring it in

34
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:32,800
through the fan and then drive it up this way and down this way as a opposed

35
00:02:30,319 --> 00:02:36,319
to causing an additional turbulence by having it interfere with the air flow

36
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:40,720
from this fan which will then be directed this way and this way this guy

37
00:02:38,519 --> 00:02:45,120
over here is kind of on his own but this serves two purposes not only to cool the

38
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:49,480
GPU core itself with all the heat that it's getting from those heat pipes but

39
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:54,200
also to cool the vrm components so that is the voltage delivery our voltage

40
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:58,319
regulation modules all of the stuff that turns that 12vt power that comes in from

41
00:02:56,319 --> 00:03:02,239
the PCI Express connectors into something that a GPU and memory and all

42
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:08,080
of that can use now speaking of memory it has a full memory plate so that is

43
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:10,080
responsible for cooling the 7 GHz gddr5

44
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:14,400
memory that you'll find on pretty much any GeForce GTX 770 graphics card and

45
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:20,560
Gigabyte has gone with a modest overclock on the GPU core so it is well

46
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:23,280
in excess of a of over 1 GHz however

47
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:27,920
this is the trick when you have a very solid cooler on one of these graphics

48
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:32,280
cards because of GPU Boost 2.0 and the way that it works where it actually

49
00:03:29,799 --> 00:03:37,239
monitors your voltage your temperature so bear that in mind for later the power

50
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:41,159
usage as well as the clock speed the cooler you can keep the card the closer

51
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:45,959
to within your temperature limit you can keep it the faster it will actually

52
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:50,680
perform which before GPU Boost 2.0 was never really true so even though one

53
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:55,360
Factory overclocked Card might come with clock speed a and one might come with

54
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:59,159
clock speed B the one with the better cooler may actually be running at a

55
00:03:57,319 --> 00:04:05,200
higher clock speed more of the time particular if you're in a hot region now the card

56
00:04:03,239 --> 00:04:08,879
is very standard in terms of its shape and size it is a twoos slot card in

57
00:04:07,079 --> 00:04:13,959
spite of its 450 watts of heat dissipation which we saw a demo of at

58
00:04:11,079 --> 00:04:17,440
computex it is real it is actually a thing which I thought was pretty darn

59
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:22,040
cool it's got the standard layout of ports so you've got two DVI ports as

60
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:26,280
well as one HDMI and one DisplayPort Port you've also got two fingers for SLI

61
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:29,720
up here giving you compatibility with two-way three-way and potentially

62
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:33,360
four-way SLI although NVIDIA does doesn't spend much time talking about

63
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:36,440
four-way SLI anymore because the reality of it is it doesn't really scale that

64
00:04:34,919 --> 00:04:40,600
well down at the bottom of the card we've got a PCI Express 3.0 16x

65
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:45,039
connector and then you can see that this is a completely non-reference card so it

66
00:04:42,479 --> 00:04:49,479
uses gigabytes Ultra durable concept which basically amounts to beefier

67
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:53,400
components and improved efficiency less heat output and all that good stuff that

68
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:57,400
you expect from an aftermarket cooled card up on the top of the card we've got

69
00:04:55,320 --> 00:05:01,039
the six pin PCI Express power adapter as well as an eight pin PCI Express power

70
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:05,240
adapter and a pretty cool sort of lattice work looking shroud that is

71
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,720
attached to the one thing that I'd say is kind of non-standard about this card

72
00:05:07,199 --> 00:05:12,440
and that is the wind Force branding up here at the top but as long as you don't

73
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:15,680
have a very narrow case and something like a side panel fan that might

74
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:20,759
interfere with this you're not going to have too much difficulty now I wouldn't

75
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:24,520
be completely finishing this video if I didn't mention some of the things that

76
00:05:22,039 --> 00:05:27,360
it comes with so it has adaptive vsync which allows you to take advantage of

77
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:31,120
the benefits of vsync as well as the benefits of not using vsync it also has

78
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:34,680
has the GeForce experience which keeps your drivers up to date and gives you

79
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:38,639
suggestions for what settings to run your games at and later on is going to

80
00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:43,400
be adding Shadow play which is pretty cool it just will use the built-in h264

81
00:05:41,319 --> 00:05:46,880
encoding on your card in order to record the last 20 minutes or less or however

82
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:50,560
much you want of your gameplay so that you can save it for gameplay videos

83
00:05:48,280 --> 00:05:55,080
later it also supports 3D Vision as well as NVIDIA surround so that is up to

84
00:05:53,080 --> 00:06:00,280
three displays in surround and one auxiliary display and I think that is

85
00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:04,000
pretty much it don't forget to subscribe to lus Tech

87
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,280
