00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:08.440
today we have kind of a neat system from the NC PC lab now we did our Vesta 6050

00:00:06.879 --> 00:00:12.599
which uh the Prototype of which you can see right here we showed it running

00:00:09.960 --> 00:00:16.720
games we showed it being sort of designed okay so that's all fine and

00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:21.080
cool but we had a customer come to us and uh this is one of the first 6050

00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:24.760
series Systems off of our production line he came to us and he said well I

00:00:22.680 --> 00:00:29.000
want the Vesta 6050 I like the overall spec I want to make a couple small

00:00:26.560 --> 00:00:32.840
tweaks but I don't want such a big case I have some space considerations for

00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:36.920
where I'm putting my computer and we kind of went okay well what we'll do is

00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:43.640
we'll uh we'll see what we can do to customize the 650 into the smaller

00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:45.719
Define R3 chassis versus the larger

00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:50.719
Define XL chassis so we made a couple tweaks first of all the modu vent

00:00:47.680 --> 00:00:52.840
feature here uh we've taken off the

00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:59.160
sound dampening material and replaced it with a 140 mm exhaust fan so we do have

00:00:56.760 --> 00:01:04.040
some uh slightly warm air coming out of here that's drawing heat away from the

00:01:01.160 --> 00:01:06.799
graphics cards and other than that most of the internal specs are the same but

00:01:05.600 --> 00:01:13.520
the first thing I want to show you is the CPU temps so we are running the

00:01:10.360 --> 00:01:16.880
h70 so we are getting temperatures only

00:01:13.520 --> 00:01:19.880
as high as 60° that is with all 12

00:01:16.880 --> 00:01:23.240
threads on this 980x he did upgrade to a

00:01:19.880 --> 00:01:26.920
980x 6 core CPU all 12 threads are at

00:01:23.240 --> 00:01:28.280
100% using prime 95 small fft so now we

00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:34.399
can take the side panel off and obviously the temperatures are going to get even a little bit better once we

00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:38.000
remove the side panel Okay so we've taken that off here we go so I'll show

00:01:36.320 --> 00:01:42.759
you all of the other tweaks that he made to his personal config first he changed

00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:48.200
to an hx850 wat power supply from the tx850 power supply that is in the spec

00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:51.880
that allows us to uh maintain better Cable Management in this small case so

00:01:50.399 --> 00:01:56.119
we can make sure we have adequate air flow bringing air from the front of the

00:01:53.560 --> 00:02:00.479
case here from these 2 120 mil fans over to the graphics cards okay so that's one

00:01:58.520 --> 00:02:05.039
change that he made another change that he made is he added a killer Nick 2100

00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:10.679
these were on like crazy Black Friday promo for $449.99 so U yeah it's kind of

00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:16.319
a no-brainer at that price okay we've also added a storage drive now instead

00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:21.640
of using the WD green series he opted for a velociraptor series Drive in

00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:26.800
addition to his ocz vertex 2 SSD and then I believe that is oh yeah

00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:33.400
finally of course he upgraded to a 980x 6 core processor from the 950 quad core

00:02:30.920 --> 00:02:39.159
that we normally use so yeah you can clearly see that there now as an

00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:42.879
experiment we kind of built one built the system for him and this is right out

00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:46.480
of our production lab this is not a prototype built by crazy Russian or

00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:54.040
anything like that so this is pretty much what you can expect if you buy a system from NC and uh so we also wanted

00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:57.480
to run some 3D benchmarks to ensure that even with the side panel closed we're

00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:05.560
not going to get any overheating because two GTX 480s is 480s 580s is a pretty

00:03:02.920 --> 00:03:09.480
significant heat load and we also found that even with the two 580s the six cor

00:03:07.959 --> 00:03:14.319
processor etc etc there was no overheating now another thing that

00:03:11.440 --> 00:03:20.480
people seem to be concerned about and I I can't imagine why with our Vesta 6050

00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:28.280
prototype was that we were using an 850 W power supply with two GTX 580s

00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:30.480
well it's fine I can tell you that right

00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:35.640
now even with the 980s upgrade that we've made here this system running

00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:41.720
Prime 95 in the background running 3D Mark Vantage pulls no more than 726

00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:47.360
Watts from the wall now factoring in that the hx850 is about 88%

00:03:45.280 --> 00:03:52.959
efficient that means that we are actually pulling no more than 650 Watts

00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:58.560
from that power supply well within its rated capacity you've got an extra 200

00:03:55.760 --> 00:04:02.799
watts of additional power available yeah you're not going to be adding another

00:03:59.879 --> 00:04:07.480
GTX 580 with that kind of of an overhead but you also don't have to worry about

00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:13.480
adding any additional drives or adding a sound card or adding some more RAM

00:04:09.640 --> 00:04:16.040
that's a a non concern with 200 watts of

00:04:13.480 --> 00:04:19.919
additional room it also means that that I mean that's only when you're under the

00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:24.680
the highest load okay so when you're at idle you're pulling like a very very

00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:29.600
small portion of what this power supply is capable of achieving so we're going

00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:34.840
to run Vantage for you guys I'm going to put put the side panel back on so you've

00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:37.120
seen the max temps with the Corsair h70

00:04:34.840 --> 00:04:41.160
uh running with full load on the CPU but I also want to show you guys just how

00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:45.080
high the graphics cards get when we close this up and let it

00:04:43.080 --> 00:04:51.320
cook all right so we finished our Vantage test we've got SLI enabled

00:04:48.080 --> 00:04:53.080
obviously uh fizx however is off just so

00:04:51.320 --> 00:04:57.440
that we have scores that are more easily reproducible if you want to compare at

00:04:54.800 --> 00:05:03.120
home and you can see we scored 36,000 3D marks and that is in the

00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:10.320
performance mode you can tell by the P at the beginning and then the hottest

00:05:05.960 --> 00:05:13.160
that our gpus got are 87° on the top GPU

00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:16.720
and 80° on the bottom one that is pretty darn good although I have to tell you

00:05:15.039 --> 00:05:21.840
guys in some of the testing we did see it peek up around as high as 90 but you

00:05:19.919 --> 00:05:26.759
know it's still well within reason for a GTX 580 I also meant to mention that one

00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:33.319
of the other small tweaks that was made from this machine was dual 120 mm fan in

00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:35.360
the front rather than only a single and

00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:39.520
a card reader so that well the card reader is not all that significant but

00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:42.880
the uh the changes to the front intake are somewhat significant so thanks for

00:05:41.080 --> 00:05:47.199
checking out this little video on one of our well I mean I could call it a Vesta

00:05:44.919 --> 00:05:51.319
6050 but it's fairly customized because we did have to use a different case and

00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:54.280
revalidate The Thermals for that different case but yeah thanks for

00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:58.639
checking out the video on this custom system from NC and don't forget to
