all right everybody glad to see you guys back here once again on launch day of the new NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 and right here to my right I have the asus version of the card this is their direct cu2 GTX 770 now a lot of you guys are going to ask exactly what that is well the CU is the symbol for copper and direct CU means direct to copper so what you're getting is you're getting the heatsink is going directly up against the GPU if it's going out into the heat fins then into the heat pipes and then being blown away keeping the card really really cool now one thing to take note of GPU boost 2.0 heavily relies on how cool the card runs and with that said we have brought you in videos showing the overclocking capabilities right out of the box of this card now we have the full blown review of this if you guys want to check that out you guys can see that right here on the screen behind me but this video we're dedicating solely to overclocking the card because we thought the results were actually worth talking about so with that said let's jump in as most people know whenever you buy one of these cards from Asus they usually come overclocked right out of the box and this card is actually no exception the base speed on this clock is a thousand thirty-nine megahertz and the boost clock is eleven hundred and eleven megahertz but we were able to get significantly better overclocking using GPU tweak we actually set the card at twelve hundred and fifty megahertz but because the card ran so much cooler we were actually able to achieve a twelve hundred ninety-three megahertz boost which is simply incredible and we did this all without increasing any voltages whatsoever which is a totally completely safe way to overclock one thing that we did change however was the actual fan speed we kept the fan speed at 70% for all of our testing and this seemed to work out very well for us now you could probably cut this back a little bit it would increase the temperature of the card but would actually reduct on the noise but truly the most significant thing about this is this the reference card was running at 80 Celsius this card runs overclocked at 71 Celsius now that translates into a lot more cooler of a card and like we said before the cooler the card the better the boost speed now the direct copper cooling actually offers some very unique things for one thing it offers five unique points of contact and this has 120 percent better dissipation than your standard card there's also a lot of things that have to do with keeping dust out of your card so less dust means less clutter means that everything is going to actually run cooler and more efficiently in the long run Durex use been around quite a while and the Oh even the number designates like day wrecks see you two or three designates how many actual fans are on the cooling so with that said folks it's time to jump into the benchmark song and a rock out so there you guys have it now a couple of things to mention now with this overclock we saw the card getting between 3 & 6 frames per second better but actually with this it actually beats the 7970 gigahertz addition card making it very very fast now it doesn't quite beat thee 780 but it does get actually awfully kickass scores when it's overclocked like this but the most important thing overall is the temperatures you guys can see that even this thing overclocked and everything else it's still running so much cooler than a reference based card so if you guys would like any information about this you guys can check this out in the link in the description below but I feel that for this card only being 10 dollars more than a reference based card this card is a seriously editor's choice especially in the overclocking department it's pretty much maxing out what GPU tweak will even allow before I hop out of here and move on with my day I know a lot of you guys always asked for SLI performance I'm glad to tell you folks that we actually have that here for you guys today you guys can check that out in the screen back here behind me like I said down below that like button is the description you guys can check out all the details down there as well and while you're down there just make sure you go ahead and punch the crap out of that like button letting us know that you like this style of video and you appreciate us I'm Elric make sure your sub the channel and we'll see you guys back here on Tec them tomorrow for more tech good
