WEBVTT 00:00:06.560 --> 00:00:13.759 For the ultimate no compromises compact gaming PC, look no further than the 00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:20.640 Obsidian Series 250D from Corsair. Click now to learn more. The EVGA GeForce GTX 00:00:17.199 --> 00:00:24.880 780 Ti Kingpin Edition. It comes with a 00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:26.800 1072 MHz base clock, an 1137 MHz boost 00:00:24.880 --> 00:00:30.560 clock, but all of that is totally irrelevant because it is designed for 00:00:28.400 --> 00:00:37.600 balls to the walls overclocking anyway. It's got 3 gigs of GDDDR5 clocked at 7 00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:39.200 GHz and it costs $150 more than a base 00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:44.800 card. So, what do you get for your money? Well, first up, you get a six 00:00:41.040 --> 00:00:46.879 heat pipe dual 100 mm fan cooler with a 00:00:44.800 --> 00:00:52.000 removable PWM heat sink. It's that little red unisync down there. Next up, 00:00:49.360 --> 00:00:55.840 you get a unique translucent ACX cooler design. So, the regular one is black. 00:00:53.840 --> 00:01:01.199 This one is different. It supports the usual NVIDIA technology. So, SLI up to 00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:05.680 four-way G-Sync Shield game streaming GPU Boost 2.0 CUDA and four concurrent 00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:10.479 displays. And this one also has some unusual stuff. So, in the box, along 00:01:08.240 --> 00:01:15.920 with the usual case badge, poster, stickers, driver disc, and manual, is an 00:01:12.720 --> 00:01:17.920 overclocking guide, sexy sleeved PCIe 00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:21.280 power adapters, and a replacement thermal pad. Cuz you never know when 00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:26.320 you're going to need a replacement thermal pad. What else is special about 00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:31.040 this? Well, it uses a completely non-reference PCB with a 14 plus 00:01:29.119 --> 00:01:36.560 threephase power design. So that's 14 phases GPU, three phases RAM, capable of 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:41.200 delivering up to 450 watts of power, which I guess explains 00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:44.640 the dual 8 pin and single six pin PCI Express power connectors on the top of 00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:49.520 the card. It also has on the top of the card an LN2 BIOS switch as well as a 00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:53.200 Probit header and included adapter that allows you to use a multimeter instead 00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:57.040 of software for voltage monitoring. Right next to that, we've got, speaking 00:01:55.119 --> 00:02:01.680 of voltage monitoring, LED indicators that show the voltage health for the 00:01:58.399 --> 00:02:03.759 GPU, RAM, PLLL, and 3.3 volt and 12volt 00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:06.640 power inputs. When we move around to the back of the card, I guess there's also 00:02:04.880 --> 00:02:10.239 SLI connectors up there. When we move around to the back of the card, we find 00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:13.599 an EVBOT header. So, that is hardware level real-time voltage and clock speed 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:18.000 adjustments that can be made with the EVBOT dongle that's available from EVGA. 00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:22.000 And then the last thing, you know, I guess there's like there's a cool, you know, back plate on it. The last thing 00:02:20.480 --> 00:02:26.080 is not in the box, but it's more of an available thing. EK has a classified 00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:30.640 edition water block that will work on the Kingpin edition card. And of course, 00:02:28.640 --> 00:02:34.720 there are Kingpin's own liquid nitrogen cooling pots if you do decide to get 00:02:32.480 --> 00:02:39.120 even more extreme than that. Okay, Lionus, this is a cool card, but what 00:02:36.640 --> 00:02:43.280 about NVIDIA Greenlight? The voltages and clock speeds will be limited for 00:02:40.720 --> 00:02:49.360 warranty purposes, right? Out of the box, perhaps, but I think Kingpin 00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:51.440 himself put it best. quote unquote, "Do 00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:56.800 you think I would put my name on a locked down card?" He said, "This card 00:02:54.319 --> 00:03:01.920 was engineered to serve one purpose, to be the world's best overclocking 00:02:59.040 --> 00:03:08.959 graphics card. Expect GPU clock speeds over 1.85 GHz with extreme cooling." 00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:14.400 So, I'll refer to the official owners club thread here where you can uh easily 00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:17.920 find unofficial tools because out of the box, you know, it's got to be limited 00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:22.000 unofficial tools to completely unlock the card and release it from any 00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:26.159 manufacturer limitations. you will be limited by physics, not by safety with 00:03:24.480 --> 00:03:31.200 this graphics card. Which means that while EVGA has a three-year warranty, 00:03:29.200 --> 00:03:35.120 um, if you do need to return it to them for some reason, you will need to do so 00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:38.720 with the stockpile, stock cooling, and everything back in out of box condition. 00:03:37.040 --> 00:03:44.159 But whatever you do with it in between it arriving and then coming back to them 00:03:41.040 --> 00:03:46.879 in out of box condition is your own 00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:50.000 thing. Now, to be clear, guys, around here, we're not Vince. We're not 00:03:48.480 --> 00:03:55.920 Kingpin. not liquid nitrogen overclockers. Um, but frankly, not many 00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:57.680 people are. So, we wanted to take a bit 00:03:55.920 --> 00:04:01.760 of a different approach to this. We decided to take some of these unofficial 00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:08.239 unlocking tools and see how far we could go with this on air versus a normal 780 00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:10.319 Ti that costs $150 less if we fully 00:04:08.239 --> 00:04:16.239 unlock it and we use the, you know, voltage modification tool to go as high 00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:18.320 as it possibly can compared to a regular 00:04:16.239 --> 00:04:21.359 780 Ti. So, I'll be handing it off to Luke. Wish him luck. 00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:26.160 I've called a lot of things beasts throughout the times that I've been on video, but I think it's pretty hard to 00:04:24.479 --> 00:04:31.759 get this close to the actual definition of beast. This card is ridiculous. It's 00:04:27.919 --> 00:04:34.240 running at 1333 MHz on the core clock as 00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:39.120 overclocked as it is right now and about 7,700 00:04:35.840 --> 00:04:41.680 MHz on memory. Both of those things are 00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:46.639 ridiculous. And we're using an unofficial overvolultting tool which is 00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:49.360 unofficially linked below the unofficial video that you're watching right now 00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:55.280 which will take you to an unofficial place to download the unofficial application which will unofficially 00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:59.360 overvolt your card which I unofficially recommend you do for this card. I also 00:04:57.520 --> 00:05:02.639 recommend jumping it into LN2 BIOS because you'll unlock many more of the 00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:06.320 goodies and be able to play with the actual capabilities of this card. 00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:11.199 without jumping into that BIOS, you're going to be hampered by many things that are cramping you down, cramping your 00:05:09.440 --> 00:05:14.240 style, and not letting you overclock as much as you possibly could. And this 00:05:12.880 --> 00:05:20.479 thing does it extremely well. When you're looking at the numbers on screen, try to remember that we're pretty sure 00:05:17.280 --> 00:05:23.280 our 780 Ti uh reference edition is 00:05:20.479 --> 00:05:27.039 probably quite golden of a sample and is a little bit higher than kind of the 00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:31.039 average that I've seen around. So, this would normally be a higher difference um 00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:34.960 than you're seeing in the graphs here, but this is how our cards bench at what 00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:38.479 they're normally clocked at. Speaking of normally clocked at, you can check the 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:41.840 overclocking sheet in the link down below. That is definitely an official 00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:45.199 link, not unofficial like the other link that's down there. Um, and you can check 00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:50.160 out exactly how our cards are clocked and exactly how they're running. For this one, we actually have voltage 00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:53.120 readouts from a multimeter, so you can see exactly how much volts are running 00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:56.479 because this card supports pin out, which is actually really cool. Thank you 00:05:55.039 --> 00:05:59.919 for watching the video. Like and dislike this video based on are you interested 00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:02.880 in this kind of card or are you kind of waiting for Maxwell to come out? Are you 00:06:01.440 --> 00:06:06.960 waiting for things in the future? Are you jumping on it right now? Uh comment 00:06:05.520 --> 00:06:12.160 down below with that and maybe comment on the forums too. You'll get a lot more interaction there like normal. Always 00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:15.199 subscribe to Linus Tech Tips and just in case you haven't seen in the last little 00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:18.720 while, our Star Citizen group is ranked number one on activity right now. So 00:06:17.280 --> 00:06:23.550 check that out on the forum too under the PC gaming section and be sure to 00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:34.939 apply. 00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:46.850 Hey,
