00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.839
a few short years ago the average Enthusiast would have told you that you

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:11.960
were crazy if you said you wanted to put top-of-the-line Hardware especially

00:00:08.920 --> 00:00:14.759
graphics cards in a tiny little box like

00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:19.279
this one now the GPU makers are practically begging for it by designing

00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:25.920
little tiny Flagship class graphics cards so the only question that remains

00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:29.039
then is this AMD or Invidia for your

00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:30.460
Elite Flagship class small form factor

00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:38.719
gaming PC

00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:44.760
vote for turnup it's a shirt I don't have one so we're going to do our best

00:00:42.760 --> 00:00:47.879
to demo what it looks like and this is not what the real shirt looks like it

00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:52.280
looks a little more like this but we didn't have a sample to show you guys so

00:00:49.800 --> 00:00:56.320
this had to do uh you can stay tuned after the outro for bonus footage of the

00:00:54.239 --> 00:01:01.840
creation of this masterpiece if you're into that sort of thing now today's

00:00:58.760 --> 00:01:03.800
video will focus on thals form factors

00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:09.360
and the compromises that we need to make when deciding between the

00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:11.080
gtx980ti and the radon R9 Fury X but as

00:01:09.360 --> 00:01:17.200
you all know there's actually more to the story than just degrees Celsius and

00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:19.280
FPS these days with free sync and gsync

00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:23.159
Technology having a huge impact on the gaming experience so drop a like under

00:01:21.720 --> 00:01:27.600
the video if you'd like to see us put these two texts head-to-head very soon

00:01:25.960 --> 00:01:32.200
to see which one delivers the most responsive Legree gaming experi

00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:38.320
experience for now though I'll introduce the test bench inside a Silverstone sg13

00:01:35.240 --> 00:01:41.119
case the same one from this video where

00:01:38.320 --> 00:01:45.640
we put an 18 core CPU and a Titan X inside it will be cramming not

00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:50.280
necessarily the highest End Hardware but rather what I would consider to be a

00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:54.439
very reasonable yet premium gaming PC so

00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:57.039
we've got a 4670k CPU not overclocked 16

00:01:54.439 --> 00:02:03.280
gigs of Corsair Vengeance RAM the rather unique

00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:06.960
sx500 uh 500 wat sfx L power supply from

00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:09.000
Silverstone and ASUS Maximus 6 impact

00:02:06.960 --> 00:02:14.680
then we'll be testing that config in two different ways for the first test we've

00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:17.400
got a referenced GTX 980ti actually the

00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:22.040
same one we reviewed back here so this isn't a water cooled graphics card which

00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:26.959
means we can use the radiator mounting point in the front of the case for our

00:02:24.200 --> 00:02:32.160
CPU in our case of course our h80i then for our second configuration I

00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:36.040
swapped out the video card which actually was a surprisingly complicated

00:02:34.440 --> 00:02:39.200
ordeal that involved removing the power supply removing the graphics card

00:02:37.640 --> 00:02:42.680
removing the CPU Cooler removing the motherboard to install an air cooler on

00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:47.080
the CPU since we no longer have room for our CPU allinone liquid cooler and

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:55.239
reassembling everything to replace our 980 TI with the fury X whose form factor

00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:57.480
I wasn't really sure about until well

00:02:55.239 --> 00:03:02.800
now that I've actually used it I mean I still don't know how much sense it makes

00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:06.280
for some cases but in the sg13 anyway it

00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:08.760
feels like the PCB space that AMD saved

00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:12.680
with their on package hbm memory was exactly enough to compensate for the

00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:16.519
extra space consumed by the water cooling tubing sticking out the back of

00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:20.400
the card and the radiator that needs to be in the front of the case now so let's

00:03:18.920 --> 00:03:24.120
run through which of these setups performed better please note that I

00:03:22.480 --> 00:03:29.120
consider this testing to be pretty much a worst case scenario for all Hardware

00:03:26.760 --> 00:03:34.560
involved since the ambient temperatures are uh significantly over 30 degrees

00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:37.799
Celsius in here first up is CPU temps I

00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:41.360
used Ida 64 CPU test to load up our

00:03:37.799 --> 00:03:44.239
4670k and the gtx980 ti rig thanks to

00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:48.040
its CPU liquid cooling is the clear winner here with the CPU topping out at

00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:54.760
a frosty 64° by contrast our small form factor

00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:57.599
heat pipe cooler had the CPU at a still

00:03:54.760 --> 00:04:03.120
not technically dangerous but much less impressive 87° C and that is without the

00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:07.439
GPU underload next up is a result that I

00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:11.560
actually didn't expect motherboard temperatures are an often overlooked yet

00:04:09.959 --> 00:04:17.079
super important part of maintaining a stable PC and while gaming our 980ti

00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:21.759
configuration actually ran away with this one but I also wouldn't read too

00:04:19.919 --> 00:04:25.160
much into it because both are well within safety margins and depending on

00:04:24.080 --> 00:04:30.120
the position of the motherboard's thermal sensor sometimes just a hotter

00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:34.080
running CPU can result in a much higher reading for the motherboard even if air

00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:39.800
flow around the socket from the CPU heat sink is more than adequate which leads

00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:42.199
us to idle noise Impressions none of the

00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:49.160
whining that I've heard Tales of online is present in either our old dead Fury X

00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:51.199
or our new furyx samples but since both

00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:55.360
configurations were equipped with cheap pumps and I mean I'm not saying that to

00:04:52.919 --> 00:04:58.759
be mean to all-in-one liquid coolers or anything it's just that you're getting

00:04:56.880 --> 00:05:03.680
what you pay for when you spend a $100 on a D5 they both had a little bit of

00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:09.320
you know pump noise but both were satisfactorily quiet in my opinion but

00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:14.720
what about load while gaming well the fury X and 980ti configs were actually

00:05:11.919 --> 00:05:19.280
not noticeably more or less annoying to my ears than each other they're both

00:05:17.039 --> 00:05:24.560
cooled by a grade a fan on their radiators in each configuration a gentle

00:05:21.919 --> 00:05:28.720
typhoon or an nff 12 that handles most of the air flow through the case and

00:05:26.520 --> 00:05:32.840
neither card exhibited any bothersome coil wine for more than the first couple

00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:39.000
seconds of gameplay in Crisis 3 on the fury X but this my friends is where

00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:46.759
things get really interesting the 980 TI did its usual cap at 83° thing while the

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:48.639
furic stayed at a very cool 67° nothing

00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:54.160
unexpected here I mean it is water cooled of course it was going to win that but the interesting thing here is

00:05:52.039 --> 00:06:00.160
that the fury X actually managed to score 5% higher in our Crisis 3

00:05:57.440 --> 00:06:04.319
Benchmark at 2560 by 1440 with very high textures and system spec with

00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:11.120
anti-aliasing disabled and motion blur disabled as well what r980 TI and this

00:06:09.280 --> 00:06:13.400
is why I specifically pointed out that it's

00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:24.759
the well that was interesting we actually have some new information now

00:06:22.919 --> 00:06:29.960
but in the meantime I'm just going to get through the rest of what I wrote

00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:31.360
there so r980 TI and this is why I

00:06:29.960 --> 00:06:35.520
specifically pointed out that it's the same one we reviewed Turbo's like an

00:06:33.280 --> 00:06:40.599
absolute Beast almost matching our Titan X and has no problems beating the fury X

00:06:38.599 --> 00:06:45.280
on an open test bench but when you confine both of them to a small form

00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:49.639
factor case the story changes somewhat more than we knew which leads us to the

00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:54.120
conclusion I came into this video thinking that the fury X's shorter

00:06:51.400 --> 00:06:59.360
length and Overkill cooler was a solution to a problem we no longer have

00:06:56.960 --> 00:07:05.560
thanks to awesome modern case designs like this one that can keep a long power

00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:08.120
hungry graphics card cool but while I

00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:14.039
still think an AO liquid cooler is a kind of a cluggy enthusiasts only need

00:07:10.680 --> 00:07:16.479
apply solution with a ton of issues

00:07:14.039 --> 00:07:21.720
thanks to the fury X's small form factor machines with this card have the ability

00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:26.080
to focus their cooling power on the one component that makes the biggest

00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:31.240
difference to gaming performance so thanks to that the fury X is able to

00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:33.840
Turbo to 1050 me gz it's Max while the

00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:39.280
980ti is stuck at a mere 1037 well within its spec I mean it's

00:07:36.400 --> 00:07:44.319
not underperforming but not the best it can do in a more ideal situation and

00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:50.440
another consideration is that while the furyx machine's aircooled CPU obviously

00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:56.440
ran much hotter than it would have with a liquid cooler a typical gamer is only

00:07:53.800 --> 00:08:01.520
very rarely going to put a load on all four cores of a quad core chip while

00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:06.080
putting a full load on a graphics card is basically a daily occurrence another

00:08:04.440 --> 00:08:12.319
argument for focusing your cooling on the GPU so I'm giving the nod to AMD

00:08:09.280 --> 00:08:14.479
today in this Edge case the fury X

00:08:12.319 --> 00:08:21.080
actually comes out looking like the winner but with an important

00:08:17.720 --> 00:08:24.360
consideration if you guys install your

00:08:21.080 --> 00:08:26.800
radiator with the fan as an intake

00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:32.120
drawing air through the rad you will notice that your inside case

00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:34.279
temperatures rise as much as 20 plus

00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:38.719
degrees meaning that if your CPU was on the border once you start gaming it no

00:08:36.959 --> 00:08:44.680
longer will be so I would highly recommend doing what we've done now off

00:08:40.839 --> 00:08:48.519
camera and turning that fan around to

00:08:44.680 --> 00:08:50.600
blow out of the case that way your CPU

00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:54.480
will not overheat like you saw happen when the screen turned off in the middle

00:08:52.160 --> 00:09:00.519
of this video but that's the kind of show this is guys the kind where

00:08:56.839 --> 00:09:02.240
anything can happen so these things

00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:07.760
what on Earth are those they're either the world's most magnificent dildos or

00:09:04.680 --> 00:09:09.640
they're ah yes headphone stands but I

00:09:07.760 --> 00:09:14.040
had actually said in a dedicated video about these not that long ago that the

00:09:11.680 --> 00:09:17.480
thing I don't like about them is that they sit on the desk and their for take

00:09:15.680 --> 00:09:21.800
up desk space and I called on the community to design a wallmounted

00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:27.519
headphone stand that could be either 3D printed or one design would be sent to

00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:29.760
Silverstone to actually manufacture the

00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:34.720
uh designer of which would get a gold colored anodized version of whatever

00:09:31.800 --> 00:09:38.800
their design was and that contest is actually closed but the reason that I'm

00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:42.240
bringing it up is that all of the designs all eight freaking 100 of them I

00:09:40.839 --> 00:09:46.880
can't believe how many of you submitted some pretty amazing designs are up for

00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:51.640
voting for which ones are going to be the top 10 on my minifactory

00:09:53.959 --> 00:10:01.519
docomo mounted headphone stands the final decision will ultimately be down

00:09:57.800 --> 00:10:03.160
to me and Silverstone but uh the more

00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:07.839
votes that something has the more closely we will be looking at it so

00:10:05.640 --> 00:10:11.519
check that out now thanks for watching if the video sucked then you know what

00:10:09.680 --> 00:10:15.920

00:10:24.560 --> 00:10:30.440
wondering what to watch next so click that little button in the top right

00:10:27.839 --> 00:10:35.240
corner to check out the video where Luke takes a 3D scanner and presumably scans

00:10:33.880 --> 00:10:40.339
some 3D objects I don't know I haven't watched it

00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:53.240
yet so this is going to be a long free roll wa is it

00:10:53.320 --> 00:11:01.639
w oh what doeses that stink so bad oh oh

00:10:58.959 --> 00:11:05.320
yeah is there a chunky in there there is I don't think this is mixed at all no I

00:11:04.040 --> 00:11:11.120
think you have to mix this with like a stick there's a lot of chunky in here

00:11:07.680 --> 00:11:14.000
there is a CHS here we go vote for

00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:21.480
turnip t-shirt something that was not in your job description no

00:11:17.839 --> 00:11:24.680
no oh now I'm smelling it oh okay it's

00:11:21.480 --> 00:11:28.000
really drippy I'm going to run out of

00:11:24.680 --> 00:11:32.000
space it does drip like crazy so

00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:34.240
like kind of tickles there's the second

00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:37.639
turnup I'm really surprised anyone volunteered I thought I was going to

00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:43.959
have to pick someone to do this I did not know what I was getting myself into

00:11:40.440 --> 00:11:46.519
at all I did the bottom of the turn it

00:11:43.959 --> 00:11:50.839
was my idea is like that there we go that's the bottom of the turnip what are

00:11:47.959 --> 00:11:55.760
you drawing that's the turnip they have a root system there's the root start at

00:11:53.079 --> 00:12:02.079
the bottom it's white we we don't have white okay so um that's the uh that's

00:11:59.959 --> 00:12:07.000
the design there's really nothing else to it are you covering his entire I'm

00:12:04.760 --> 00:12:11.200
enjoy the shirt okay you want me to do the other shoulder sure dude in some

00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:15.440
other color you know I thought I was comfortable in my

00:12:13.160 --> 00:12:23.160
skin and with you guys this is some Next Level right

00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:28.839
here okay so I have that side doing now

00:12:23.160 --> 00:12:28.839
star there's open space y

00:12:30.560 --> 00:12:34.760
are we good yeah I think so
