hey tech fans today's video is brought to you by the Corsair k63 gaming mechanical keyboard get your game on with Corsair okay so I've seen the comments in almost every video it's like dude where are the amp extreme TI scores oh okay I'm going to be straight up with you they only had a couple of those cards and they basically let me to card for like a couple of days so I didn't even have any time to do the testing we basically got the card did the unboxing they asked me to ship the card back that's so we didn't get to do that but we actually have the straight-up amp Edition right here and that's the card that we'll be showing you guys today so just take it with a grain of salt though the app extreme is probably going to score about five to seven frames per second more than this card if you go out and do your numbers and look around you'll come back oh yeah I do you're you're right but with that said let's check out this card today because this is another badass card from ZOTAC the 1080 TI amp Edition I mean you guys know these cards they're fast this one's fast and let's check it out so if you happen to have the box in front of you first thing you're going to notice that there's a lot of things in the back that just tell what they have on the card some of their stuff like that ice storm stuff for cooling their spectra for doing all the different colors and stuff you want to do freeze which means the card ones that you know with the fam not running it's completely silent and then they're fired storm stuff for doing all your fine-tuning for overclocking now beyond that when you open up the box you get the card itself two 6-pin tape and adapters the user's manual and the drivers CD but in all honesty don't ever try to use the drivers off the CD unless you just not connect to the internet because you want to get the absolute latest drivers that you can for your card the only real important thing other than a card when you get the package is those two 6-pin taping connectors because if you don't have a power supply that has it you'll appreciate the hell out of having those at that time cuz you fail to go I can still use my card otherwise you'll be going ah but anyways here's what's important the card itself now let's check it out real closely because this thing looks really cool the color that it is like the gunmetal gray this will fit in any different system and match the color scheme pretty much like black it can be used in any type of system it will matches Skol it's a great neutral color for doing builds for those people look into a build and like the color scheme it's neutral but then hey you're going to really like this card on top you can see there are two 100 millimeter fans these are used to help dissipate all that heat away from the card now underneath that there are a lot of loom heat things you can also see the copper heat pipes down there as well and as you take a look at the bottom of the card there's obviously the PCI interface down there but the rest of the card is kind of covered with the shroud usually you can see more the cooling apparatus but with this it's pretty much covered all the way around with only a slight space for viewing on the end of the card you guys can see that there are four heat pipes emanating from the aluminum heat fins there's also where the power fan is plugged in so this is where all the electricity is going to be going on for your fan stuff and in addition to the power fan connector right next to that you can see there's another header on the top of the card we can see the GeForce GTX nomenclature then the zotac name now that so tech name that can be changed it pretty much any color you want for the color scheme of your bills if you're going to build it's black and white you can make it white if it's red you can make it red blue etc etc going along the card you guys can see there are two eight pin power connectors now this card is recommend that you have a minimum power supply of 600 watts and it does draw 270 watts from your power supply take a look at the back of the card you guys are going to notice up on the top right there are two sli fingers so obviously you can do sli up to four cards with this damn thing if you want to go crazy you can do it there's also two power booms chips on the back of the car now the base clock of this card is fifteen hundred and sixty nine megahertz they claim that the boost clock is sixteen hundred and eighty-three megahertz but we were seeing boost clocks up to 1700 quite a bit now what a little strange thing wee bit strange is why is the zotac logo going a different direction than the power blues chips I mean I thought they should all been go in the same direction so you could check them all the same time ago yeah that's cool now you guys obviously know low low low low low low low I love the back plate they're tough they're durable they keep your card running great there are slots all inside of here which is also allowed for the heat to dissipate way from the card I know some people out there say oh man it doesn't matter whatsoever if it's trapped the heat in there but trust me it may not be no be like you know reinventing the wheel or anything but it definitely does help to have another place to get that heat venting away from the back of the chipset it gets hot and there's some place to go away from the heat and get blown out from the system you know exhaust in your system then I think you're going to be better off with a card like that I know it's not like you know the breaker you know make or break thing but it's still it's pretty nice to have last but not least checking out the input you guys can see it there three display ports and HDMI 2.0 port and a single DVID port one thing I just thought that was kind of really nifty of Nvidia to put in all of their 1080 eyes is the fact that you get 11 gigabytes of RAM with a memory speed of 11 gigahertz tricky alright gamers so there you have it the card itself what comes in the box now let's check out our test system before we rock out to the benchmark song since we're going to be jumping into a lot of SLI and crossfire testing we decide to build a system that there'd be absolutely no problem of getting bottleneck to next 99 system for gigabyte g1 gaming x99 motherboard 16 gigabytes of course there's vengeance memory 5960 cpu we got a great hard drive a nice power supply in a nice case and overall just something really bitchin to do our testing in alright metalheads get ready for a fricken ride because here comes the benchmark song along with those benches if you don't like metal turn on your mute button or plug you'll is because it's time to rock Oh you now as far as the heat goes when using the card when it was just on idle it was 43 Celsius but we were in gaming on for about an hour and so the highest that ever got was 80 Celsius really not bad for a high-end card alright gamers so you've got your video card and you're ready to get your game on well you obviously know that you're going to need a keyboard to kick some ass so let's check out the Corsair k63 the Corsair k63 is made for the gamer who needs a minimalistic keyboard that has a lot of features on it but doesn't take up a lot of dead space the k63 features perky red LED backlighting and large font keycaps you can see everything perfectly clearly even in a dark room the keys are also fully programmable and you can do this using course there's cue software it also features dedicated volume in the multimedia controls to totally control your gaming environment the k63 features a very small footprint due to its compact 10 keyless design and best of all in my opinion the k63 features cherry MX red switches these are fast accurate and they feature a really great linear response time alright Tech fans so there you have it the zotac GTX can a TTI amp Edition which is really only a wee bit slower than the amp extreme edition if you're expecting to get the amp Extreme Edition and expect the same things from like a 1080 to attained yeah it ain't nothing like that baby and I'm sure if your house is cooler the model over the desert you could probably hit almost the same exact scores for a little bit lower price now this card's coming to market about six hundred and seventy nine dollars but that's kind of the same price you're seeing on everything that's breaks play yours they're all coming in to market and to be honest with you between all the different cards the features and everything are really really close the only difference you're really going to see is a little bit of the cooling apparatus you're going to see a little bit of a design implementation about the looks of it and that's pretty much it because let's just face it most of the guts of these cards are exactly the same Nvidia makes them you know the chipset and all that from Nvidia you have your boost clock stuff on this other guys use different techniques but at the end of the day if you're looking for a fast as card that will work in any type of situation will do SLI although we'll talk about it's all a little bit more later this card's a really bitchin card obviously it's expensive because you're trying to get the you know bad ass card you can get in the single card division and this is it now once again I'll say when Vega gets here we'll see a lot of people saying oh my god it's going to come out it's going to kill it we'll see I mean I'm open I'm open mind is the fact but I think it's going to come out vague comes out and it's probably going to be close but it'll be a little bit cheaper and that's Justin of how things go but we'll see at the end of the day so I'm Eric you guys been watching teka tomorrow once again a special thanks to our sponsor from Corsair if you guys want to check out the k63 or anything about our test system or pretty much anything about this video or maybe buy this card or see more stuff hey down bullet like button will be all that information so check it out if you like the video hey you know what to do I'm Eric you've been watching ticker tomorrow peace out
