00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:07,839
Linus Tech tips coverage of pxs 2013 is brought to you by Western Digital Intel

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:10,320
and steel series the star of the show

3
00:00:07,839 --> 00:00:16,000
here at the MSI Booth is of course the GTX 780 lightning this is their first

4
00:00:13,559 --> 00:00:20,960
non-reference GTX 780 fully non reference we're talking completely

5
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:26,000
redesigned cooling completely redesigned PCB completely redesigned freaking

6
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:31,160
everything so the PCB is actually not only larger than a normal GTX 780 but

7
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:35,079
they've got their GP reactor on the back of it which can provide better voltage

8
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:39,680
stability during extreme overclocking they've got a dual BIOS mode for the

9
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:43,440
card that has got an ln2 optimized or liquid nitrogen optimized mode or a

10
00:00:42,160 --> 00:00:49,879
normal mode depending on how you're going to be using the card they've completely redesigned even the concept

11
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:55,960
of their cooler so all them military class components are covered by a back

12
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:58,719
plate on the back a unisync on the front

13
00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:02,719
and then three fans instead of two fans like you'd normally find on their

14
00:01:00,039 --> 00:01:06,680
traditional twin frozer so that I guess they could call that like a like a tri

15
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:09,960
frozer or something like that they're still using their propeller blade fans

16
00:01:08,439 --> 00:01:13,560
and they have their dust removal technology meaning the fans spin

17
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:18,799
backwards on startups so that you don't get dust and Gunk all built up into the

18
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:21,920
heatsink it's got eight super pipes

19
00:01:18,799 --> 00:01:23,600
which is MSI's branding for basically

20
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:27,799
larger than normal heat pipes that are able to carry heat away from the heat

21
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:31,920
generating components more effectively than regular pipes and of course you've

22
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:36,880
got all of the usual NVIDIA technology so support for three monitors and NVIDIA

23
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:41,000
3D Vision surround with an auxiliary monitor support for SLI up to four-way

24
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:45,200
although three-way is really the highest that we normally recommend or two-way

25
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:50,759
for people who are more concerned with performance per dollar it needs two 8

26
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:55,680
Pin PCI Express plugs and while I don't have the details on what it's clocked at

27
00:01:53,119 --> 00:01:59,200
by default I think we can all agree that whatever it's clocked at with the

28
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:03,200
cooling solution that you've got on here it's going to be running at that speed

29
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:07,079
all the time because GPU Boost 2.0 depends on keeping the card cool in

30
00:02:05,159 --> 00:02:10,080
order to get the best performance guys don't miss any of our packs coverage

31
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:15,239
remember our trip to the show is powered by Western Digital Intel and steel
