welcome to my unboxing and first look at the msi gtx GeForce GTX 670 power edition so this is unique because it has triple voltage that is then tensed power delivery design which allows you to actually over volt the GPU which reference boards can do so you can use MSI Afterburner which is conspicuously missing its little badge on the front there it is you can use MSI Afterburner to overclock this graphics card significantly better probably in theory you know I can't guarantee overclocking results then a reference GTX 670 or even a non reference GTX 670 that doesn't use their you know military class beefy components as well as their unique voltage controller design that actually allows the part to be over vaulted because normal GTX 670 s have some trouble with that so here we go triple over voltage by MSI Afterburner so voltage adjustment of GPU memory and PLL by afterburner military class three components we've come to expect this from these guys so they're super ferry chokes highly conductive capacitors capacitors capacitors and solid caps and this afterburner we've talked about already it has PWM design enhances overclocking stability okay got it and medias comment to twin further thermal design ah yes so uses their Twin Frozr cooler this uses a twin ah hey Alex does this use twin throw through three or four okay thank you we've actually got Alex here from MSI will be film these and then I have to give these back to him to take with him because he needs them for some kind of sort where you going he says he's going to Alaska with them but I don't believe that for a second so dual molex to 6-pin PCI connectors you've got two of them in terms of included accessories you usually find those with MSI cards down here DVI to VGA as well as you know users guide driver disk you don't need and all of that normal stuff now let's get into the graphics part itself so the most unique thing about this card as I said before is not what you're gonna find on the card how it does have their Twin Frozr for cooler so Twin Frozr keeps evolving the original Twin Frozr was just two fans on it you think between frozer to added super pipes the Twin Frozr 3 added the propeller blade fan switch with their coating at the end here is less conducive to noise production or less less noisy because of the way that the turbulence is reduced as well as the inclusion with twin throws or four is the fact that the heads bend backwards for a little while before spinning forward which is helpful for reducing dust buildup on the heatsink itself because you can build the best heatsink in the world but then you take it up with dust and it doesn't work at all so so that's that's all the different things that have gone into trim Pro so it also looks cooler now than it used to kart design so check this out it has a full board I don't know how much you can see it but you see here it has a full board yoona sync that actually adds to the structural rigidity of the board as well as increasing cooling so any components that need cooling you can see they have thermal pads for things like RAM right there so they're making contact spreading that heat out and any components that don't need cooling are popping up through it so you just like that however that's not to say they're not getting any cooling anyway because the design of the Twin Frozr cooler blows air down over the entire PCB anyhow you find most of the other stuff that you're used to dual DVI display port as well as HDMI out so this is a GTX 670 3d visions surround off of a single card and with the 670 you can actually get away with that and however with some of the lower end stuff you aren't going to be able to run three displays at 1080p and 3d and at any kind of you know decent frame rate I mean this is probably where I would start and then maybe add another one if you're not happy with the frame rate speaking of adding another one GTX 670 does support up to four-way SLI so one two three or four cards all supported and you got ah yes non-reference PCB so we've talked about this a little bit already but the reference GTX 670 PCB is like here it cuts off here so there's just not as much room to put on beefy power components and to have the power connectors at the end of the board which is a little bit better for cable management and to just have more room to lay things out rather than cramping them altogether so that's the advantage of getting a non reference card for something like a high end GPU like a GTX 670 so I think that pretty much covers it thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the GeForce GTX 670 power Edition from MSI don't forget to subscribe for more unboxings reviews and other computer videos
