update from the NC PC lab so this is the Vesta i7 5050 and what we've aimed to do with this particular system is create a flexible platform where users can for the same price either choose a GeForce solution which is what we have running on the bench right now or a radon solution so it's going to be available in a couple of different configurations that are going to be priced exactly the same so basically you're going to get all of this configuration Plus either graphics card so it has a core i7 960 so with the recent price drop on the 960 you can now get a 960 at 3.2 GHz for the same price as the 950 I mean even though both CPUs have been out in the market for a similar time the 950 is not going to drop any further it's just going to pretty much be phased out and the 960 is going to be a replacement so you get a little bit bit more value for your dollar that way we're going to be using a coolit Eco liquid cooling kit once we get it installed in the real case which is going to be an NZXT Phantom white right there so we're going to have liquid cooling on that CPU so if you wanted to do some overclocking once you get your system then Be Our Guest we're going to be using mushkin enhanced Silverline memory so this is DDR3 1333 very low voltage Kit only a 1.5 volt kit so you're going to be able to have overclocking room on that as well the system is all about overclocking you can see right here we've got an isus Sabertooth tough series motherboard once again all about overclocking now speaking of overclocking we're using a very high quality power supply which is one of the things that is necessary for pushing a system past its regular limit so it's a cic 620 wat and as you can see from our power meter here the absolute maximum power draw we've managed to achieve with this system from the wall is 391 1 watt so since this is an 80 plus bronze power supply that means that we're looking at about 39 about about 65 is Watts maybe about 70 Watts less than this in terms of actual power draw from the power supply itself so only about 330 Watts which means you should have plenty of overhead even to add an additional graphics card if you want and the power supply will operate quite silently so you can see here we're running Lost Planet 2 very demanding direct EX title we've scored a rank of a in the test B Benchmark and let me just show you guys what settings we are actually running all of this at so I'm going to show you the settings uh crazy Russian says he's got it maxed out at 1280 by 720 what the deuce okay so crazy Russian hardcore failed running it at the wrong resolution you can see we're running The Benchmark again now at 1920 by 1200 which would be a proper PC gaming resolution not 1280 by 720 okay so anyway let's keep talking about the config while this runs and we'll show you the overall score at the end so we're going to be shipping this configuration with a 60 gig ocz vertex 2 SSD as well as a wd green 1 tbte drive for storage now I realize we're not running off the SSD right now but there's a very good reason for that which I'm not going to get too far into basically crazy Russian didn't bother to install the OS on the SSD so that's okay we're running our benchmarks without it uh what else do we got here oh yeah if you guys want to check out the relative performance of these two cards on a like test platform you can check out my video review actually of the GTX 560 TI where I cover these two cards as well as the 560 TI and a variety of modern games I think when we left off we were just going to talk about the performance so why don't we actually hold off on filming until this is done and we'll show you guys how this setup performs in the demanding ever demanding Lost Planet 2 directx11 game all right so there we go we ranked B which means that the game is very playable okay so we rarely dip below the 45 frames per second range here actually you can see the average is about 45 FPS so as long as you don't go below 30 it's going to be delivering a very playable experience and this is without any overclocking on any of these parts so the system's going to ship for 99.99 and I'll do an update for you guys uh with the radon card versus the GeForce card at the equivalent price points once we've got the system fully configured and properly built within the NZXT Phantom case thanks for watching
