WEBVTT 00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:07.799 this video is brought to you by the Intel Core i5 4670k unlocked processor 00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:12.480 add an Intel 520 series SSD to your Haswell system for unbelievable overall 00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:18.240 performance welcome to my unboxing and first look at the GeForce GTX 770 00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:22.640 windforce OC version according to Gigabyte here from Gigabyte this is as 00:00:21.279 --> 00:00:28.240 you may or may not have figured out by now a GeForce gtx770 it is overclocked 00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:33.840 and more importantly than the factory overclock it has gigabytes windforce 00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:40.120 cooler so their windforce cooler uses a triple fan design each of these fans 00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:41.800 being 75 mm in diameter as well as one 00:00:40.120 --> 00:00:48.120 of the beefiest come on out there we go as well 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 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 00:00:54.440 --> 00:01:03.559 look at them accessories is that two Molex to PCI Express adapters wow wow 00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:04.799 one six pin 18 pin so cool next oh is 00:01:03.559 --> 00:01:09.159 that a driver disc wing and quick graphics card 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 00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:18.200 which is a video which is obviously better cuz videos are awesome all right 00:01:15.960 --> 00:01:26.079 so the cooler itself there's your three 75 mm fans all right there is your 00:01:22.520 --> 00:01:28.159 massive array of heat sink fins so check 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 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 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 00:01:39.360 --> 00:01:45.960 are massive thick heat pipes and then the other four of the heat pipes that 00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:49.320 are on the card itself are 6 mm heat pipes so you can see which direction 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 00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:58.039 them loops around and comes out this side in order to effectively spread the 00:01:55.520 --> 00:02:00.880 heat away from the GPU itself and then onto the rest of the components now 00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:05.159 Gigabyte has done a couple of unique things to improve the efficiency of the 00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:08.119 cooler so number one is they have added this triangle shape is what they're 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 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 00:02:13.920 --> 00:02:19.680 there are angled uh angled pieces that are going to cause the air flow to be 00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:23.680 more directed than you would have normally seen with a windforce cooler in 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 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 00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:36.319 to causing an additional turbulence by having it interfere with the air flow 00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:40.720 from this fan which will then be directed this way and this way this guy 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 00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:49.480 GPU core itself with all the heat that it's getting from those heat pipes but 00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:54.200 also to cool the vrm components so that is the voltage delivery our voltage 00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:58.319 regulation modules all of the stuff that turns that 12vt power that comes in from 00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:02.239 the PCI Express connectors into something that a GPU and memory and all 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 00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:10.080 responsible for cooling the 7 GHz gddr5 00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:14.400 memory that you'll find on pretty much any GeForce GTX 770 graphics card and 00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:20.560 Gigabyte has gone with a modest overclock on the GPU core so it is well 00:03:17.040 --> 00:03:23.280 in excess of a of over 1 GHz however 00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:27.920 this is the trick when you have a very solid cooler on one of these graphics 00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:32.280 cards because of GPU Boost 2.0 and the way that it works where it actually 00:03:29.799 --> 00:03:37.239 monitors your voltage your temperature so bear that in mind for later the power 00:03:34.480 --> 00:03:41.159 usage as well as the clock speed the cooler you can keep the card the closer 00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:45.959 to within your temperature limit you can keep it the faster it will actually 00:03:43.040 --> 00:03:50.680 perform which before GPU Boost 2.0 was never really true so even though one 00:03:48.760 --> 00:03:55.360 Factory overclocked Card might come with clock speed a and one might come with 00:03:52.640 --> 00:03:59.159 clock speed B the one with the better cooler may actually be running at a 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 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 00:04:07.079 --> 00:04:13.959 spite of its 450 watts of heat dissipation which we saw a demo of at 00:04:11.079 --> 00:04:17.440 computex it is real it is actually a thing which I thought was pretty darn 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 00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:26.280 well as one HDMI and one DisplayPort Port you've also got two fingers for SLI 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:29.720 up here giving you compatibility with two-way three-way and potentially 00:04:28.080 --> 00:04:33.360 four-way SLI although NVIDIA does doesn't spend much time talking about 00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:36.440 four-way SLI anymore because the reality of it is it doesn't really scale that 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 00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:45.039 connector and then you can see that this is a completely non-reference card so it 00:04:42.479 --> 00:04:49.479 uses gigabytes Ultra durable concept which basically amounts to beefier 00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:53.400 components and improved efficiency less heat output and all that good stuff that 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 00:04:55.320 --> 00:05:01.039 the six pin PCI Express power adapter as well as an eight pin PCI Express power 00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:05.240 adapter and a pretty cool sort of lattice work looking shroud that is 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 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 00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:15.680 have a very narrow case and something like a side panel fan that might 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:20.759 interfere with this you're not going to have too much difficulty now I wouldn't 00:05:17.960 --> 00:05:24.520 be completely finishing this video if I didn't mention some of the things that 00:05:22.039 --> 00:05:27.360 it comes with so it has adaptive vsync which allows you to take advantage of 00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:31.120 the benefits of vsync as well as the benefits of not using vsync it also has 00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:34.680 has the GeForce experience which keeps your drivers up to date and gives you 00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:38.639 suggestions for what settings to run your games at and later on is going to 00:05:36.840 --> 00:05:43.400 be adding Shadow play which is pretty cool it just will use the built-in h264 00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:46.880 encoding on your card in order to record the last 20 minutes or less or however 00:05:45.080 --> 00:05:50.560 much you want of your gameplay so that you can save it for gameplay videos 00:05:48.280 --> 00:05:55.080 later it also supports 3D Vision as well as NVIDIA surround so that is up to 00:05:53.080 --> 00:06:00.280 three displays in surround and one auxiliary display and I think that is 00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:04.000 pretty much it don't forget to subscribe to lus Tech 00:06:02.520 --> 00:06:10.280 tips for unboxings reviews and other computer videos and I hope that you have 00:06:06.440 --> 00:06:10.280 enjoyed this one
