GIGABYTE GeForce GTS 450 Unboxing

2010-09-13
hey guys here with gigabytes version of the g-force GTS 450 now like with most manufacturers they are overclocking the cart from 783 megahertz up to 810 now it's by no means the highest overclock we've seen but it is still one hundred and twenty nine dollars so very good in the price the other thing it has a three year warranty what you're gonna see is a lot of these manufacturers are not giving lifetime warranties with the GTS 450 so actually three years is at the higher end of the spectrum the other thing about the gigabyte model is it is using a copper core on the cooler and we're going to take a look at the cooler when we open it up which I don't think there's anything too special on the box just all of the standard materials otherwise this card is actually the exact same in terms of specs besides the graphics clock it still has the same amount of memory one gig 192 CUDA cores and a hundred and/or 1804 megahertz memory clock alright accessories we have the PCI 2 molex adapter VGA to DVI adapter in this little gem mini HDMI into regular HDMI which is going to be one of the outputs we also have the driver CD and the user manual Nvidia comm download the latest drivers read through this that you're not familiar with the setup I really curious to see gigabytes renditions of this because they usually do pretty good with their aftermarket coolers and hopefully this won't disappoint it has the blue gigabyte PCB that you see on a lot of their products if it the power plug in the back we have dual DVI on the front as well as mini HDMI an exhaust point which looks like you're going to get a bit of exhaust out there but because the back isn't covered it's probably going to blow a little back into the case now as far as the cooler goes just looking at the heatsink through the plastic shroud on top it is fairly similar to the standard 450 heatsink design but you have the addition of that copper core which you can see is going to be right over top of the GPU chip now the GTS 450 is going to be cool already but the addition of this copper core should help to keep things in check it'll be great for a media center or maybe a system where you don't have quite as much room inside so there we have it make sure you check out the full review on the GTS 450 video cards
