00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:09,200
All right, guys. Now, I did promise a follow-up on the GTX 580 Twin Frozer 2

2
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:12,800
overclocked video card unboxing that I did. So, I've got the card here, and I

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:19,119
promised you guys that I would compare it against a reference cooled card. So,

4
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:21,600
here I've got an EVGA GeForce GTX 580

5
00:00:19,119 --> 00:00:26,640
reference card. So, it's using the stock NVIDIA cooler. I've got my trusty

6
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:31,359
temperature probe, which tells us that well, okay, as of before I walked over

7
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:36,960
there, it was at 22°, but I guess now we're up around

8
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:39,680
23ish°. And uh I've also got Firmark

9
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:43,680
running. Now, remember, Firmark does no longer deliver accurate results if

10
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:48,640
you're trying to find the absolute max temps of a GeForce card. However, since

11
00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:54,960
we're comparing two identical cards, two GTX 580s, we can trust it to tell us the

12
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:59,600
relative temperatures under a similar load of these two cards. So, you can see

13
00:00:57,199 --> 00:01:03,840
up here in the top right corner, our GPU temperature is at You can't see that at

14
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:10,280
all, can you? I guess I'll just have to walk over to the TV and not be lazy. All

15
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:14,080
right, so our GTX 580 is running at

16
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:17,040
69° with a fan speed of about 2,000 RPM.

17
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:20,400
We're at stock speeds here and I'm just going to take a quick audio sample for

18
00:01:18,479 --> 00:01:23,600
you guys to show you what the reference cooler sounds like under

19
00:01:27,799 --> 00:01:32,640
load. And here is the Twin Frozer 2. You

20
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:37,200
can see our room has warmed up a little bit. So, whenever you're comparing the

21
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:43,640
Twin Frozer 2 results against the stock cooler results, you should assume that

22
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:46,000
if the room temperatures were the

23
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:50,399
same that the temperatures of the Twin Frozer 2 would actually be a couple

24
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:54,640
degrees cooler. Oh, looks like it's fluctuating as I move around. It's a

25
00:01:52,159 --> 00:01:59,119
very sensitive sensor there. So anyway, the Twin Frozer 2 peaks, bearing in mind

26
00:01:57,119 --> 00:02:05,040
this is an overclocked card, so it runs at 800 MHz versus the stock frequency of

27
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:07,840
the GTX 580. And oh, please focus. Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,

28
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:15,720
come on. You can focus. There you go. Okay, so 800 MHz. And then we've also

29
00:02:10,640 --> 00:02:19,440
got a peak GPU temperature of

30
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:24,680
57°. So that is pretty darn impressive.

31
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:24,680
The uh fan RPM is around 2400.

32
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:34,000
And that is what it sounds like. So, the Twin Frozer 2 absolutely destroys the

33
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:39,040
stock cooler in terms of performance. Personally, I think it looks nicer, too,

34
00:02:36,319 --> 00:02:45,440
but uh you know, to each his own. So, thank you for checking out this little

35
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:47,200
video on the MSI GTX 570 Twin Frozer 2.
