1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:07,280
so today I'm going to be having a look at a very unique product from EVGA this

2
00:00:04,560 --> 00:00:14,000
is the EVGA GTX 275 Co-op but stay tuned there's more

3
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:19,800
physics okay so normally EVGA uses their Co-op branding to mean that there are

4
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:22,880
two gpus but unlike the last time with

5
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:26,199
the GTX 295 Co-op they are not the same

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:28,359
GPU this card besides including Batman

7
00:00:26,199 --> 00:00:33,480
Arkham Asylum which is a very cool value ad because it's a pretty sweet game game

8
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:42,800
that I really enjoyed it has two completely different gpus on it it has

9
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:46,000
one GTX 275 okay and then it has one GTS

10
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:48,280
250 for physics so I'm not sure if you

11
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:55,800
can read that right there so it has a dedicated GTS 260 for physics support

12
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:57,680
that means the card in total has 1280

13
00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:03,640
Megs of RAM on it which is a very strange amount but that's the 896

14
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:05,920
for the um for the GTX 275 and then the

15
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:10,880
rest of it is actually dedicated to the GTS 250 so let's see what we have inside

16
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:15,479
here in terms of accessories and whatnot so I'm just going to aim the camera down

17
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:19,240
kind of like so so you can sort of see what's going on here okay first thing

18
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:22,880
we've got is a oh wow I'm not going to show you guys that is a graphics card

19
00:01:21,119 --> 00:01:28,079
installation guide so that should be a guide on how to install your graphics

20
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:31,280
card it explains PCI Express versus AGP

21
00:01:28,079 --> 00:01:33,759
how to install your driver d

22
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:38,560
okay thank you oh oh actually no I saw something in there that was relevant

23
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:40,880
where is it ah right nope no not

24
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:45,880
relevant never mind okay then we have the quick start guide for the GeForce

25
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:49,119
GTX 275 Co-op physics I'm guessing they

26
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,640
are going to explain to you insert the

27
00:01:49,119 --> 00:01:54,040
graphics card in a PCI if you're only installing one

28
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:57,920
GeForce no no there's not really a whole lot going on there either okay next is

29
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:00,640
the driver installation CD don't use that throw it away download the latest

30
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:05,280
off NVIDIA.com okay this is the Batman

31
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:10,039
Arkham Asylum coupon code do not try and read the code I covered it up this time

32
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:14,560
that's right someone got my code for uh Everquest 2 off one of my other

33
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:18,800
unboxings the killer Zeno Pro but not this time okay so in terms of

34
00:02:17,519 --> 00:02:23,879
accessories in here we got their little spiff pass through cable ground and

35
00:02:21,319 --> 00:02:28,360
spiff those are the two connectors that are on it you can't really read that

36
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:31,319
that's okay then we have a PCI Express

37
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:37,720
ah we have two PCI Express six pin to one PCI Express 8 Pin

38
00:02:33,959 --> 00:02:41,519
adapter then we have a two MOX to one

39
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:46,920
PCI Express six pin adapter we've got a

40
00:02:41,519 --> 00:02:50,720
DVI to VGA adapter we have a sticker to

41
00:02:46,920 --> 00:02:54,200
uh case adapter a sticker okay then we

42
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:55,959
have a DVI to HDMI adapter that pretty

43
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:59,440
much does it in terms of accessories then we have a cool little EVGA cutout

44
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:03,840
thing it's like the shape of a card I really like this I don't know why and

45
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:08,480
then we have the card itself this is a big card actually I was not really

46
00:03:06,239 --> 00:03:14,560
expecting this and I can't explain why because I should have expected it

47
00:03:10,599 --> 00:03:16,720
because this card has two gpus on it so

48
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:22,440
it's not exactly Ro rocket science that it would be a little bit on the big side

49
00:03:18,799 --> 00:03:25,799
okay so wow that is a heck of a fan so

50
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:27,959
why don't we start with the wow where do

51
00:03:25,799 --> 00:03:33,319
you start on a card like this okay why don't we start on the front that is The

52
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:35,920
Joker okay and that is a padded wall

53
00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:40,760
that the Joker presumably resides inside this is about an 80 mil looking fan that

54
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:44,080
has a very aggressive shape to the blades here so you can see that it's

55
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,879
designed for static pressure they're really going to work hard to push air

56
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:52,720
through those fins inside there I'm not really sure if you're going to be able to see that but H that's okay yeah there

57
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:57,480
you go you can kind of see through the fins there and then there is also a fin

58
00:03:55,159 --> 00:04:01,200
structure on the other side for the other V GPU which you are not going to

59
00:03:59,959 --> 00:04:08,079
be able to see through for sure because it lines up with these slots and it's just one more obstruction okay so up at

60
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:12,519
the top we have two SLI connectors so that means you can run it with another

61
00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:16,440
275 in SLI and then use your dedicated GTS 250 for physics presumably if

62
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:20,320
someone corrects me then I will be wrong and they will be right okay up at the

63
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:25,720
top it's got our little branding sticker here with your GTX 275 Coop physics you

64
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:31,600
got one8 pin and one six pin power connector so that is more than a normal

65
00:04:28,039 --> 00:04:33,440
275 would have on the back you can

66
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:38,759
clearly see where the two gpus are located there is one right oh where are

67
00:04:36,919 --> 00:04:42,639
they it looks like there's one right here and one right here and this one has

68
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:46,440
a heat pipe coming off of it so I'm going to guess that's the 275 and this

69
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,919
one I'm kind of guessing there's one based on all the traces that are there

70
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:55,160
and based on the fact that I can kind of see it here would be the 250 this is

71
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:58,840
presumably covering some memory for the 250 but I'm I'm again totally guessing

72
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:02,360
here let's have a look at the back where we have two DV

73
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:07,680
uh connectors and then we have a slot for the uh case air to be exhausted out

74
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:13,120
once it's cooled off the GPU at the back this is a standard PCI Express 16x slot

75
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:17,320
so you don't need any kind of special SLI motherboard or any kind of special

76
00:05:15,479 --> 00:05:22,759
features in your computer other than a PCI Express 16x slot in order to support

77
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:25,479
this card at the back here you can see more cooling fins oh that would have

78
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:31,759
been a way better way to show you that so you can see right through the card there and that is where the cooling air

79
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:34,759
from this GPU is going to go now I'm going to assume there's some kind of

80
00:05:33,199 --> 00:05:40,360
heat pipe it's really hard to sort of see anything on this card because it shrouded so well but I think that pretty

81
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:43,960
much concludes it the main point is that Batman Arkham Asylum the game that comes

82
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:48,560
with it takes advantage of physics really well I've actually got a couple

83
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:50,560
GTX 260s in my own PC and using the

84
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:54,080
physics versus not using physics made a huge difference to my game performance

85
00:05:52,440 --> 00:06:00,840
thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the GTX 275 Co-op

86
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,840
Edition
