1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:06,480
the EVGA classified super record 2 is an

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:11,440
utterly Unique Piece of gaming history when it was released this motherboard

3
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:17,320
and the two CPUs inside it would have set you back nearly

4
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:20,000
$4,000 add some memory case and power

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:26,240
supply probably a handful of gpus for that sweet sweet quad SLI action and we

6
00:00:23,279 --> 00:00:32,079
are dangerously close to a gaming system that would cost

7
00:00:28,359 --> 00:00:34,879
$10,000 adjusted for inflation a gaming

8
00:00:32,079 --> 00:00:42,079
system all I can say is for that kind of money this thing better be pretty darn

9
00:00:37,719 --> 00:00:46,399
future proof it better be would you look

10
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:48,960
at the time it's future o' so to see if

11
00:00:46,399 --> 00:00:54,640
the sr2 still F we put together a library of awesome games that still

12
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:58,640
support SLI and we got our hands on not

13
00:00:54,640 --> 00:01:02,399
one but four of the fastest quad SLI

14
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:06,360
gpus that EVGA ever built to see how

15
00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:08,680
this monster holds up 9 to 13 years

16
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:12,920
later like the video if you think that's a good question to

17
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:18,759
answer certainly better than that segue to our sponsor flexi spot with improved

18
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:24,040
stability a weight capacity of up to 540 lbs and a 15-year warranty the flexi

19
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:26,600
spot E7 plus is built to stand the test

20
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:30,119
of time pun intended check it out at the link down below

21
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:44,680
the very first thing you'll notice about the classified sr2 is its massive size

22
00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:51,079
this ain't your mama's eatx and it ain't even your papy's xlx it uses a form

23
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:56,079
factor of evga's own design

24
00:01:51,079 --> 00:02:00,079
hptx that weighs in at a colossal 15 in

25
00:01:56,079 --> 00:02:02,119
by 13 and half their justification

26
00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:11,560
well where else are we going to put the two Zeon workstation CPUs the 12 sticks

27
00:02:06,759 --> 00:02:16,120
of DDR3 memory and the whopping s PCIe

28
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:18,760
gen 2x6 expansion slots to even get that

29
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:24,640
much Hardware support in spite of EVGA marketing this platform to enthusiasts

30
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:28,000
and Gamers they used an Intel 5520

31
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:29,879
server chipset so as we mentioned before

32
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:36,720
we've gone with the best chips of aailable for it a pair of xon

33
00:02:33,319 --> 00:02:39,680
x5690 Allin we're talking 24 total

34
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:45,760
threads with 24 megabytes of cache operating at turbo speeds of up to

35
00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:47,200
3.73 GHz and the word on the street is

36
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:54,319
that if you're willing to risk your substantial investment

37
00:02:50,319 --> 00:02:57,480
$1,600 each they overclock like wild on

38
00:02:54,319 --> 00:02:59,200
this board challenge accepted to make

39
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:04,400
the platform more friendly to Consumers the classified sr2 supports non ECC RAM

40
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:09,799
so the same kind you would put in a gaming system rather than a server or a

41
00:03:06,959 --> 00:03:14,640
workstation we did find that the support for it was a little bit spotty

42
00:03:12,799 --> 00:03:19,040
especially when we tried to Cobble together kits out of older sticks we had

43
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:22,879
lying around but thankfully Corsair still makes DDR3 and they sent over

44
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:29,840
enough sticks for us to Cobble together a couple of triple Channel DDR 3600 kits

45
00:03:27,799 --> 00:03:38,200
will we get better performance than dual channel in games almost definitely not

46
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:39,319
is it cool heck yeah it is is it soft no

47
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:45,360
for that you're going to need the new polo from LTT Store.com time to get this

48
00:03:42,159 --> 00:03:48,360
mama jama installed and

49
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,360
uh

50
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:57,519
um thankfully we've got a solution the

51
00:03:52,760 --> 00:04:02,239
one the only EVGA

52
00:03:57,519 --> 00:04:03,760
dg85 I flipping love this case it's

53
00:04:02,239 --> 00:04:09,319
going to require a little bit of work but this case unironically holds up

54
00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:11,599
extremely well HDMI pass through for VR

55
00:04:09,319 --> 00:04:15,760
a built-in rear door for a super clean look an acrylic side panel and acrylic

56
00:04:13,879 --> 00:04:19,440
interior panel not to mention ample Cable Management the only issue is that

57
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:23,639
these standoffs are not in the right place though that seems to be more the

58
00:04:21,359 --> 00:04:30,280
board's fault than the case's fault going to have to mask these

59
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:32,080
off three screws seems pretty good now

60
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:38,759
something that doesn't hold up as well is the storage support on this board

61
00:04:34,919 --> 00:04:41,280
modern NVMe drives require a ufi type

62
00:04:38,759 --> 00:04:47,039
firmware rather than an older BIOS type firmware and the sr2 it ain't got it

63
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:50,960
there are hacky workarounds involving a bootloader on a SATA device and then

64
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:56,080
handing off to an NVMe device but for Simplicity we've stuck with tried and

65
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:58,720
true SATA 2 terabytes for our library of

66
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:04,840
SLI compatible games now we need to think about power if we want to run not

67
00:05:01,199 --> 00:05:07,720
one not two but four 980 TI I mean

68
00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:13,759
that's 1,000 Watts right there and our CPUs are going to draw up to 130 watts

69
00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:16,320
each that's over 1,200 Watts if only

70
00:05:13,759 --> 00:05:22,120
there was someone who made a power supply that well okay you spoiled it

71
00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:27,199
okay fine we're using the EVGA Supernova 1600 T2 and the size isn't the only

72
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:31,520
weird thing about this motherboard I mean look at all of these extra power

73
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:38,160
connectors we've got two eight pins for the CPUs and then an additional three

74
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:41,039
six pin PCI Express for auxiliary power

75
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:44,120
for well potentially all these devices that won't be a problem for us though

76
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:51,440
because we don't care about cable managing this build there we go we chose

77
00:05:48,479 --> 00:05:55,240
this particular card because it's a twos slot variant so when we went to add

78
00:05:53,759 --> 00:06:01,680
three more of them they would actually fit without using risers plus I mean

79
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:04,800
look tvga we had to go EVGA you believe

80
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:08,479
a top-of-the-line GPU with a 384bit bus

81
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:11,240
and six gigs of memory was only

82
00:06:08,479 --> 00:06:14,120
$650 practically pay that much for a GP with six gigs of memory today I mean not

83
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:18,800
quite but jeez anyway we're going to take a

84
00:06:16,919 --> 00:06:26,680
baseline with just one of these cards then we're going to add some

85
00:06:21,599 --> 00:06:29,720
more she works it's alive two CPUs let's

86
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:31,599
go what better way to try out our SI

87
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:40,160
gaming system then crisis 2 considering it's only running

88
00:06:35,199 --> 00:06:41,720
at between 60 and 70fps at 1440p I

89
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:45,599
wouldn't say it's running especially well but that was kind of this game's

90
00:06:43,639 --> 00:06:50,639
whole deal let's see if our system can handle something more modern what about

91
00:06:47,840 --> 00:06:55,680
cyber Punk hold on hold on it doesn't say play

92
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:58,240
again I wanted to play the new crisis

93
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:04,879
cyber Punk but red launcher's crashing even with the Legacy patch that's fine

94
00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:06,560
let's overclock this thing man I do not

95
00:07:04,879 --> 00:07:10,759
remember how to overclock on this platform In fairness to me it's been

96
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:18,360
over 10 years okay let's just try dummy OC dummy OC let's go oh it worked we are

97
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:21,360
over 4 GHz gummy OC for the win

98
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:26,120
effortless little bit more voltage easy

99
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:28,120
4.2 dang CPUs are only at like 60° too

100
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:33,319
this is why people used to overclock cuz there was a point I want more though oh

101
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:38,360
my God that was 400 watts decided to go for gold here we went straight to 4.5

102
00:07:36,039 --> 00:07:43,599
GHz are we going to get it oh oh she crashed

103
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:50,840
4.35 I believe no blue

104
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,840
screen we're going to take the easy w at

105
00:07:52,199 --> 00:07:59,120
4.2 what kind of FPS we looking at I'm Vibe checking frame view doesn't work on

106
00:07:56,879 --> 00:08:04,639
Windows 7 so we just have to Vibe the FPS S I would say it's not a lot better

107
00:08:02,159 --> 00:08:08,919
but it's a little better I'm seeing far fewer dips into the mid-60s that

108
00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:15,280
indicates to us that a faster CPU never hurts but it wasn't our main bottleneck

109
00:08:12,479 --> 00:08:18,080
thankfully we have a plan let's see how many gpus we can stuff in here by the

110
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:23,520
way did I mention we're sucking back like 500 watts with only one 980 TI

111
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:29,479
right now to somewhat control our benchmarking I am going to look at this

112
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:33,800
flame that's going to be our scene 93 fr fres per

113
00:08:31,599 --> 00:08:37,399
second and now you see why we didn't bother cable managing anything while

114
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:41,039
there are nine PCI slots at the back and in theory that's all we need cuz the

115
00:08:39,479 --> 00:08:47,959
first two are unoccupied and then we've got seven all right that last card is a

116
00:08:45,519 --> 00:08:52,800
double slot card and um there's nowhere for it to go that's where our new case

117
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:58,040
comes in did uh Justin make this test bench oh yeah did he do it really fast

118
00:08:55,399 --> 00:09:02,200
oh yeah nice unironically this is how a lot of people ran sr2 I mean it's right

119
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:07,399
in the name this was not a daily driver platform for regular consumers it's the

120
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:13,279
super record 2 something about loading up a motherboard with gpus that just man

121
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:19,240
I miss it you know time for the big moment the quad SLI

122
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:27,440
Bridge oh yeah now for the most fun part

123
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:31,079
configure SL maximize 3D performance uh

124
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:34,240
casual uh 400 Watts at the desktop 500

125
00:09:31,079 --> 00:09:37,560
watts at the desktop no big deal this

126
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:39,680
really is the Hummer of gaming machines

127
00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:44,160
all this brick of gpus would cost you back when it was new was $22,600

128
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:51,760
accounting for inflation is about equivalent to $ 249s today but hey it's

129
00:09:47,839 --> 00:09:54,160
got 24 gigs of vram just like a 4090

130
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:58,120
maybe it'll keep up no that's not how that works that's not how any of this

131
00:09:55,640 --> 00:10:02,880
works last time we ran the unigen heaven Benchmark on this system it was with

132
00:09:59,839 --> 00:10:06,079
just one card we got around 2200 points

133
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:08,560
coming just shy of 90 frames per second

134
00:10:06,079 --> 00:10:12,880
four-way SLI scaling isn't perfect but I got to say I was expecting a little

135
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:18,519
better than that here's the thing remember that 24 gigs of vram well it's

136
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:23,440
split between all four different cards you don't just get to pull it together

137
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:29,360
every one of these has to hold their own copy of any asset that's required in

138
00:10:26,079 --> 00:10:32,160
order to render the scene also this SLI

139
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:36,399
link not that fast so the intercard communication adds a ton of overhead as

140
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:41,920
they're coordinating who's working on exactly what what this means is that

141
00:10:39,079 --> 00:10:47,360
especially Beyond Two Cards the scaling is awful and the worst part is that none

142
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:52,760
of that is the worst part it's hard to pick up on camera but oh yeah there it

143
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:57,880
is you probably saw that micro stutter which is caused by uneven timing of the

144
00:10:55,440 --> 00:11:03,120
delivered finished frames can be very distracting and make a higher frame rate

145
00:11:00,680 --> 00:11:07,680
feel like a lower one because of the hitches and choppiness but I'm not going

146
00:11:05,079 --> 00:11:11,680
to let that dampen my enthusiasm let's run some games all right here we

147
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:20,320
go it's like not even 10 FP it's

148
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:22,079
96 oh my God hold on hold on we haven't

149
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:28,560
gotten down to our fire yet we got to look at the fire maybe this setup is

150
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:30,519
fire and all we're drawing is uh 800 WTS

151
00:11:28,560 --> 00:11:40,440
you know what hold on a second no no this is faster we're

152
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:42,120
at95 120 FPS but that fire 140 150 FPS

153
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:46,839
that's that's legit actually cuz we were getting 90 something before the 50%

154
00:11:44,279 --> 00:11:50,360
Improvement never mind that two cards probably would have gotten to very

155
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:56,320
similar numbers but then we wouldn't get to see the sweet sweet SLI times 4 in

156
00:11:53,560 --> 00:12:00,079
our top left try to launch another SLI game let's see how compatible SLI was

157
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:06,200
with uh video game games back then all right could we have done 4K woo she's

158
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:10,959
floaty and that 60 FPS does not feel

159
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:13,560
like 60 FPS oh wow that's truly awful I

160
00:12:10,959 --> 00:12:17,760
want to see 1440p man this bottom card the fan just keeps turning off going

161
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:22,000
back on it's not doing anything while we're drawing 630 Watts it's actually

162
00:12:20,279 --> 00:12:26,240
less than I was expecting it's a lot less than I was expecting they're

163
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:30,920
definitely not going to full usage nope I mean I think if it's all the way all

164
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:35,360
four are being used so we are basically not touching our quad no we're using

165
00:12:33,199 --> 00:12:40,000
like one and a half cards something to keep in mind is that even games that

166
00:12:37,399 --> 00:12:45,560
support SLI don't necessarily support three-way or four-way SLI let alone take

167
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:52,639
like full advantage of it like support does not mean utilize Titanfall 2 yeah

168
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:55,600
it was on the list crank it times eight yeah yeah it'll do 8X

169
00:12:55,680 --> 00:13:03,320
msaa I'm getting over 100 FPS 108 1080

170
00:12:59,959 --> 00:13:05,760
but this is cranked 1080p by the time

171
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:09,440
you put on 8X msaa you might as well be running out a higher resolution yeah but

172
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:14,360
look we're using still like one maybe two cards yep all we're really learning

173
00:13:11,399 --> 00:13:18,720
is that the 980 TI is a really good card and we can tell from our power

174
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:25,720
consumption too actually our power consp around 750 watts we are probably getting

175
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:31,120
some benefit minor but

176
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:31,120
some yeah these boys are not doing much

177
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:40,720
GPU 0 42 48

178
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:43,480
5054 so it's not that only one GPU is

179
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:48,920
doing the work it's that each GPU is doing very little of it okay tried Jedi

180
00:13:46,199 --> 00:13:56,240
fall in order that's from 2019 here we go with a system from 2010 to 2015

181
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:58,079
depending how you measure it no I see

182
00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:01,720
this doing weird stuff in the startup menu uh but is using a lot more of the

183
00:14:00,199 --> 00:14:07,279
cards I paid for the whole card I want to use the whole card yeah 144 graphic

184
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:09,279
quality epic epic here we go uh o this

185
00:14:07,279 --> 00:14:13,600
does not bode well that does not look like 60 FPS sir I mean it's using those

186
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:19,800
cards though oh yeah oh boy

187
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:23,320
740 750 okay never mind the power is

188
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:26,000
being used and we're getting 68 FPS but

189
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:32,639
that looks more like 25 oh yeah even just through the camera like it should

190
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:36,639
be plain to see that that is not 75

191
00:14:32,639 --> 00:14:38,759
FPS oh wow that was

192
00:14:36,639 --> 00:14:44,480
horrible oh did you see that was it transitioned highest we're going for it

193
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:50,560
absolutely cranked 1080p screen capab broke I mean the game's working this is

194
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:53,320
only 45 FPS and feels way better than

195
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:58,199
Jedi Fallen ordered it at 75 we lost our SLI tracker though yeah we don't know

196
00:14:55,920 --> 00:15:06,560
how much is being used very little it turns 5 60 watts yep Ultra Plus wow that

197
00:15:03,079 --> 00:15:09,199
is a very uh excited ponytail yeah why

198
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:15,160
is it shaking so much why is everything awful so much

199
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:18,639
oh wow what is

200
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:20,639
happening I don't think the Witcher 3

201
00:15:18,639 --> 00:15:24,839
despite saying that it's compatible with SLI I don't think it likes it at all but

202
00:15:23,199 --> 00:15:31,160
none of that is the fault of the classified sr2 so what if we took a more

203
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:35,319
modern Jeep pu and at least gave it a chance to run these modern games In

204
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:41,319
fairness to SLI this was the last generation of cards to use the older

205
00:15:37,759 --> 00:15:44,040
style non High Bend width link and

206
00:15:41,319 --> 00:15:48,360
before gpus got this fast it did work a little better it was less of a

207
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,240
bottleneck this feels stupid but I'm

208
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:55,519
doing it wait a second are there even Windows 7 drivers for the 490 that is a

209
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:59,120
great question I don't I doubt it okay the 490 doesn't have a driver for

210
00:15:57,519 --> 00:16:07,040
Windows 7 but you know what I say to that no big loss cuz guess what the 3090

211
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:09,959
TI does and also hey happens to be the

212
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:13,759
fastest card EVGA ever made well fastest card they sold fastest card they sold

213
00:16:12,079 --> 00:16:20,920
were you in 1440 before when you got the 130 number 120 what 150 at the fire what

214
00:16:17,759 --> 00:16:22,800
like 140 150 it's not that much better

215
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:27,800
well we're not the fire yet I guess no but it's not that much better right

216
00:16:25,639 --> 00:16:32,519
that's wild then hold on what's our Cuda core counts Colin can you look up how

217
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:37,680
many cacor a 980 TI has and then compare that times 4 to how many cacor a 390 TI

218
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:46,440
has uh Vance can you look it up please

219
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:49,120
sure he tries so hard as it turns out

220
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:55,519
the total number of cakor is not that dissimilar with this having about

221
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:58,240
10,700 and our 4 9980 TI totaling around

222
00:16:55,519 --> 00:17:03,959
11,000 does it maybe make sense that the performance is about the same holy crap

223
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:05,600
the performance is about the same wow

224
00:17:03,959 --> 00:17:12,199
actually power consumption is not even that far off no 580 pretty close this is

225
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:17,439
obviously a case where the CPU is what is holding us back in spite of the fact

226
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:20,240
that we're running it 1440p Ultra let's

227
00:17:17,439 --> 00:17:26,240
try a more demanding game crisis 2 was demanding for its time

228
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:29,240
wow I mean it looks better it looks way

229
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,520
better yeah you know what it's super h

230
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:35,080
though yeah we're probably held back a little bit by DDR3 as well our CPU even

231
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:40,520
though we're at like what 4 GHz uh the IPC of how many generations yeah is

232
00:17:38,559 --> 00:17:46,480
really going to climb and something to consider is that if any aspect of this

233
00:17:43,799 --> 00:17:50,280
game leaks off of the six cores that are on the one CPU and needs to be handled

234
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:56,200
by the other one we have to wait around for that qpi link between the CPUs you

235
00:17:52,679 --> 00:17:58,880
can really see it these birds are like

236
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:04,919
yeah they just like stop and then go I want to try a couple more games

237
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:06,799
though this is 100% completely totally

238
00:18:04,919 --> 00:18:11,679
fine and playable this is freaking awesome oh I mean except I need to get

239
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:16,559
good that's the only issue when the CPU is fast enough you will get a great

240
00:18:13,919 --> 00:18:19,520
gaming experience I would definitely recommend upgrading an older system like

241
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:24,120
this before spending that kind of money on a GPU yeah but you can throw in your

242
00:18:22,159 --> 00:18:28,360
new GPU and then upgrade later if you really want to you could as long as

243
00:18:26,039 --> 00:18:33,600
you've already got the uh power supply head room yeah this is freaking awesome

244
00:18:30,559 --> 00:18:35,919
400 watts oh wow and so much more

245
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:40,120
efficient which tells us we are still very CPU bottle oh 100% our cards fans

246
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:45,919
aren't even turned on I mean even if we are capping the frame rate that is

247
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:47,799
flipping wild okay why is that frame

248
00:18:45,919 --> 00:18:51,640
rate capped though I don't know you know what I bet that frame rate cap is a big

249
00:18:49,919 --> 00:18:55,559
part of why the CPU is not causing issues as well cuz not just running it

250
00:18:53,640 --> 00:19:00,960
right up against the limit okay Jedi fall in order I feel good we're going to

251
00:18:57,679 --> 00:19:03,640
play a reasonably game on this ancient

252
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:09,880
freaking platform plus a 390t well plus A 390t Minor

253
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:12,039
Details this is better but still sucks

254
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:16,480
much yeah this is still very hitchy now give it a sec maybe it'll warm up you

255
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:21,240
know what I want to do now what not now now but now that I've seen this I want

256
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:26,400
to get those 980 TI running on something a little newer they might not be that

257
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:31,559
bad 6 gigs of vram though I feel like this is CPU again oh wait no we're at

258
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:36,559
like 100 FPS also it's not hitching as much anymore yeah it warmed up this kind

259
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:39,240
of settled in this is like perfect now

260
00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:45,159
playable perfect perfect is a stretch see it's not perfect when he

261
00:19:41,559 --> 00:19:46,679
goes to New areas and it has to load for

262
00:19:45,159 --> 00:19:52,080
a second struggling a little it struggles it is damn playable markedly

263
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:56,440
better I'd like to see you play this game on your 13-year-old console oh yeah

264
00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:03,080
no that's not going to work mind you your 13-year-old console wouldn't have cost you 1,000 to upgrade or to begin

265
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:06,840
with you know what else needs an upgrade this segue just kidding not yet I wanted

266
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:11,080
to talk about how much fun we had building this okay it was kind of a

267
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:15,880
disaster and there were compatibility issues just like in the old days but

268
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:21,480
like overclocking man we got a meaningful Improvement in performance

269
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:23,480
and crisis for like 15 25 minutes of

270
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:27,280
effort do you guys even overclock anymore we're going to link a community

271
00:20:24,799 --> 00:20:30,679
poll in the video description it just doesn't feel worth it and man and I

272
00:20:29,120 --> 00:20:35,320
don't know what it is maybe it's the polo shirt with the collar or the old

273
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:40,320
Hardware but this was an absolute blast even if the price made no sense and it

274
00:20:38,039 --> 00:20:45,600
was inefficient as all hell just like this inefficient segue

275
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:51,760
to our sponsor flexi spot you know sitting is

276
00:20:49,120 --> 00:20:56,760
so last year standing is what the kids are into these days and flexi spot knows

277
00:20:54,520 --> 00:21:01,760
this that's why their E7 plus standing desk is so darn solid

278
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:07,400
unlike typical twoleg standing desks the E7 Plus's four-leg design gives it a leg

279
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:14,799
up on the competition boasting a weight capacity of up to 540 lb static and 440

280
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:18,159
lb lifting this extra support means Rock Solid stability so no more worrying

281
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:22,840
about all the stuff on your desk toppling over just from you breathing on

282
00:21:20,039 --> 00:21:27,120
it and unlike some other four-leg desks it supports a variety of accessories

283
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:31,679
like monitor mounts underes drawers and keyboard trays Plus with a generous

284
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:35,240
15-year warranty you can trust in its durability for years to come even the

285
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:40,200
control panel is Advanced with programmable height presets and a USB

286
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:44,320
charging port check out the flexispot E7 plus using the link below and use the

287
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:50,240

288
00:21:47,120 --> 00:21:53,279
video why not check out the predecessor

289
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:56,440
to this Intel skull

290
00:21:53,279 --> 00:22:00,520
Trail it was

291
00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,520
worse but in some ways cooler
