GALAX/KFA2 GTX 1070 EXOC Sniper Review & Benchmarks

2017-04-12
yeah what's up guys Toby here back with another video and today we are reviewing something a little bit different a graphics card and more namely the KF a 2 slash Galax gtx 1070 XOC sniper edition we're going to be doing a brief overview of the card itself its specs build ports and then we'll move on to the graphs so in terms of build it's a two stock card and the cooler is made out of metal so a sturdy it's got erased backplate because of the LED strip which in turn made reaching the PCIe slot when taking the card out kind of hard in terms of power he needs one eight pin and one six pin to work I find that kind of weird as my Strix gtx 1070 from a soos only needs one eight pin and not the six pin so I'm not quite sure where that extra power goes in terms of outputs the card has three display ports one HDMI and one DVI port in terms of specs we're looking at the 1594 megahertz base clock and a boost clock of a 1784 although the card will push beyond that if there's enough cooling to do so which there is it's got 1920 cuda cores which worked great in applications using those such as premier and resolve the card supports all of the latest features and technology this VR already is called simultaneous multi-project it's got a no support g-sync sli game stream GPU boost 3.0 a direct x12 Vulkan API opengl 4.5 and pci express 3 of course it's got two 100 millimeter fans pushing air onto the big heat sink behind and those do a great job of cooling the card in games its maximum temperature was 70 degrees Celsius while on a twenty thirty five megahertz boost that's pretty great in my opinion so with that said let's take a look at benchmarks the system used featured an AMD risin 1700 which is not the optimal CPU for gaming so if you're using maybe an i7 expect a small increase in these numbers for yourself in terms of other specifications the PC is running 16 gigs of Crucial Ballistix tactical at 24 megahertz a samsung 960 evo m2 SSD in a coarser 460 X RGB case the motherboard used was the Asus prime X 370 Pro so as you can see on these benchmarks the card is plenty powerful in 1440p games on ultra settings that can handle every game you throw had it with no problem whatsoever and I really do recommend it for anyone interested in playing at higher settings and resolutions but don't want to pull out the money for a 1080 or 1080 Ti so with that said what do you guys think of the KF a to start Galax gtx 1070 lemon only comes down below and i'll catch you guys in the next video peace
