i'd be lying if i said that uh it hasn't already been on a test bench but what i can do is open up the box for your real nice styles this my friends if you have yourself a cool 699 dollars is what will arrive in your homestead so let's take a quick look at it this is my first hands-on even though it's actually feels still slightly warm from Anthony maybe allegedly playing around with it so let's start with oh fine we'll do the unboxing thing okay so in here you've got a dual eight pin there it is eight pin pci express power connectors two single miniature 12 pin that's really cool so the new 12 pin is actually smaller than the old 8 pin in spite of the fact that it can carry significantly more power well that's pretty spicy also of course if you've got a modular power supply you don't even need to use this you can get fresh new cables from your power supply manufacturer assuming that they've got support for it also in here a GeForce support guide what do you even put in these quick start look at this book it's a novel plug the thing into the thing plug the other thing into the thing all right so some of the big features of rtx 3000 series are of course NVIDIA's new ampere architecture giving us better performance in basically every meaningful way from conventional games to uh novel concepts like ray traced lighting in games or machine learning to upsample rendering the game at a lower resolution and then displaying it on a higher resolution screen it's got 10 gigs of gddr6x video memory which is a huge bandwidth boost over the previous gddr6 and one of the big ones here is of course the extraordinarily unconventional cooler design so what we're used to seeing is your i o at the back so you've got three DisplayPort and a single HDMI 2.1 that's right my friends up to 8k resolution right down here is the pci express gen 4 16x connector all that looks pretty normal so far right up here is the slr no no sli there will be no sli except on the rtx 3090 NVIDIA's basically saying well if you want to go overkill you might as well go over kill putting what is effectively the final nail in the coffin of sli and then in other unusual news we've got uh the fan on the back so this is pretty normal AMD has even done reference designs NVIDIA has done reference designs with fans blowing down towards the pcb like this and then exhausting kind of you know out like this or out the back so you can see that right here we've never seen a full-on intake fan on the back of a card and you know what now that they've done it i guess it makes a ton of sense because if you can pull air in right here where the fresh air is actually coming in from the front of the case no i actually still don't understand why they didn't just put the fan on this side let me think about this for a minute the pcb is here and it's actually it's actually shaped like this which is crazy town and then what they've got to do is the GPU which is right around here they've actually got to bend the heat pipes up and away so you can actually see them there so you can't put the fan on this side because the heat pipes have to be here so obviously you got to put the fan over on this side because you got your cold air coming in here you've got your more conventional style fan right here that's just taking that cold air and blowing it out the back of the card and then like yeah over here a little bit so kind of out like this way okay so you got that and then this one is actually a super unconventional design so if you look at the uh the design of the blades here it's totally different from this fan see that conventional fan spins like that blows air down this fan spins like i believe it's like this yes and pulls air up here so it's so the graphics card is basically hogging all the cool air coming into your case and then being like hey CPU guess what you're a lower priority for gaming so here you go which might actually have an impact on some people's setups

weekend isn't that neat andy was mentioning that there is some confusion about whether this is a reference card now in the past it was quite common to release sort of like a design guideline pcb founders edition cards have sort of been referred to as reference cards interchangeably in the past with what made them a founders versus a reference card being the fancy aluminum cooler over the last few years but NVIDIA is making it very clear that while this is a founder's card it is not a reference card and there's a separate reference card that doesn't have this unusual shape another thing that we wanted to discuss is what this card could potentially mean for small form factor enthusiasts because the unconventional layout uh what with the 45 degree angled 12-pin power connector coming out here i guess the the airflow design is pretty standard-ish i mean it's all going this way which we're used to seeing right yeah okay that's that's true actually so if you're using anything like a Dan case for example then this this airflow is going to be completely blocked you'd have to have something more conventional where it's right next to the the cooler so anything that uses a pci express riser to lay the car down flat you're pretty much going to be stuffed water cooling this puppy i'm actually really interested to see how water cooling manufacturers approach this challenge so i'll be interested to see if they have kind of like ep and extension back plates on them in order to make them look a little bit heftier when they're installed the uk water block is only 23 centimeters long with that space you can pretty much like fit ddc pump in your small form factor case that's a design that i'd like to see a block for this card that's actually designed with a ddc mount right off of the back of it or something like that so you could just have the whole thing integrated in the space where normally you would just have a graphics card now in terms of performance i can't share anything with you other than what NVIDIA has already published on their website which is that they're saying it's way faster than the rtx 2080 and even faster than the rtx 2080 ti in spite of not even being the kingpin rtx 3000 card that's of course the rtx 3090 which is more like a titan replacement and i think that's all the time we have for today folks because we got to put this thing back on the test bench so we can have our full performance review looking at not just performance actually but also some of the new features so dlss 2.1 which is their latest iteration of their up sampling as well as some of their NVIDIA broadcast features which are supposed to make life easier for streamers and of course i'm really excited to check out their low latency reflex technology and see if my like what does it have an effect on image quality in order to give you that better click to photon response time we'll have to see if we can pick it up and not drop it make sure you're subscribed to ShortCircuit by the way for more videos just like this one but hopefully with more depth because we're not hamstrung by our performance embargo it feels good it's heavy you know like you know wow you know"}
