what's up Tech friends welcome back to the deck of our YouTube channel we bring you all the tech all the time what are we doing today well today we're taking a look at the gtx 680 direct cu2 top card from the people over at asu's that's right this thing comes overclocked 1201 megahertz right out of the box has all kinds of features including their direct hot wire stuffs you're going to be able to like actually Hotwire this thing onto some of their motherboards and overclock the I buy over volting it now doing so will probably over you know state your warranty but those people do extreme overclocking and that kind of this card is made for that so it may have more features and you will ever actually use but it does have that option so today we're going to bring you the unboxing and then the full review of this card so let's go alright folks so here we see the from the box has the Asus logo inspiring innovation persistent perfection directs you to top model 20% cooler 14 decibels quieter that's right this card is actually pretty big too cuz there's a giant huge heatsink here you see it 1201 megahertz right out of the box that's the top GPU boost that's a great overclock you have their digital oi oi power stable overclocking this is all the great components and everything that's part of it the VGA hot wire for do-it-yourself over volting that's pretty crazy huh 2 gigabytes you gd-r 5 memory and obviously it's the geforce gtx 680 dumplin doom so flip it around you guys need to see a quick thing the side not too much there at all not too much in the bottom either however there is the nomenclature so let me hold this up here so you folks can see this this shows you the nomenclature of the card for those who are interested alright then we'll actually see the back of the box there's actually quite a bit of features in the back of the box right here you can see repetitive what we saw before but then we see the heatsink for the first time heat pipes direct contact with the GPU pre hence the directly to top the tops actually overclocking the directs you to is actually this connection right here moving next over we see the digi+ vrm plus super alloy power 30% less power noise and 2.5 times longer durability what this means is by keeping the card cool and they also have programming that actually digitally keeps the fan running so the fan goes up and down and keeps the card running it's absolutely cool it's ensuring that it runs for an absolutely long time here's the VGA hotwire real-time / volting with raagh motherboard so that's right with the toprock motherboards you can actually directly take this thing sawed it to the board and then over volt the at it for it for overclocking so with that said let's jump in and see what else is in the box go ahead and get this thing over here and pop the tab there we go go ahead topside glad you move it from the box and we'll be kind we won't even throw the box to the cameraman because we know some you guys about they're sensitive so look we have the black box inside the box box ception going on once again with the Asus logo across the top slap it down we're gonna open it up now and then inside of the flap we have the beginning and here we go here's the hey-zeus little black book and inside we have the speed set-up guide and we'll move on I'm on this particular one that I got it was an earlier sample so I didn't get a driver CD I just downloaded it off the internet from them so here we go kaboom take that off the top there underneath we have some of the connections we have the dual molex to eight pin power connector right there so do a molex eight pin here we have right here the SLI bracket very far apart as you can see it's a very very large stretch because the ROK motherboards you can separate the cards and the cards themselves are actually very very large all right folks now that we've seen all the accessories and all our stuff relax actually take a look at the meat of the matter of the car oops let me go ahead and take this get this out of the way here we'll go ahead and we'll set the car down actually we'll set it down face first and start off right here so let's do this now you've got the card face first let's do the measurements the card is exactly one foot long so it's a 12 foot card and I'm just kidding folks a 12 inch card when people caught that but lady pleasers it is a 12 inch card always pleases the ladies trust me on this as far as the width of the card Kabang it's about two about two and a quarter inches well this all translated for you guys and centimeters not stuff few people who live overseas so let's get past that point and since we got it on this side let's start off here right at the bat we see two SLI fingers I mean you can do Quad SLI with this card flip it around the side here again we see eight pin and a six pin power connector so 115 75 watts and another 75 for the PCI Jessie all that nice and good all right and bring this up with the camera really close if you guys four somehow missed that I'll just go up here and show you quick again two power connectors and then the two sli fingers don't me to be redundant but some people might not have caught that so let's flip it around let's take a look at the rear i/o to DVI hdmi and displayport my favorite rear i/o I prefer this one because those are all the connections that you need it makes it very easy to plug in especially using my Dell monitors back here in the background here's the PCI interface right here now here's the front of the card the two fans now underneath all this is the great direct see you stuff you can't really see it very much because the cards cover you know now I'm gonna try to get the Cameron to slip right in there and take a look right here here you can see one two three heat pipes running all the way through the card heat fins all the way through this is connected directly to the GPU so all the heat gets sucked into that absorbed into this and then blown away by the fans that totally dissipates the heat away from the card so lastly to show the back one more time and that folks is what comes in the box alright folks so now that we've seen everything that comes in the box let's see how this card performs against the competition get ready to rock out to the benchmark song let's go you you you all right then the benchmark song rockin and rollin with pain cylinder song the benchmarks on you guys have picked it up all over the place it's available out there a lot of people ask what it is and it's available and for you guys yes it is in all kinds of different flavors and versions so anyways the really cool things about this car though are really for those extreme overclockers being able to directly hotwire into the motherboard itself a controller things the BIOS is really really critical to those guys were up there trying to break a records and all that stuff for most folks like me and you that are just at home gaming that particular feature is like you know having a button on our car that we flipped to fly but we know that we really can't fly you know but it's really cool to have it anyways you know I'm saying so it's just kind of a really cool feature at the end of the day though I think this thing is a serious editor's choice product here on tech of tomorrow it not only is very very fast right out of the box it's already overclocked it runs very very cool with the digital and everything control of the fans like I said before this thing continually runs a constantly cool velocity I think that is absolutely great so you guys take care I hope you guys like this video we're trying to get more of these review type stuff up for your folks so show some love and like always be subscribed because we're going to have all kinds of giveaways and contests going on here on tech up tomorrow
