Hey good morning everybody I can see that buddy's wide awake give me his good morning kiss how are you folks doing I hope you've had your coffee cuz today is launch day for andis latest line of GPUs that's right now today I've got right here in front of me the msi version now this is their gaming card of the new r9 280x so with that said let's jump in now and let's do the unboxing and at the end I'll point you over to the full review let's go alright folks so here we have it the MSI gaming G Series Twin Frozr gaming Edition r9 280x few folks out through don't know about it Twin Frozr is these guys is specified cooling and it's made for their cards and their cards only it's the overclocked edition coming overclocked out of the box and from what I have heard I do not believe there'll be any reference model of these cards at all every single one of them will be specifically designed by the manufacturer it's recommended by fnatic we'll flip it around the side here they're just showing you little couple fan things what I talked about before it also supports DirectX 11 point to flip the card around to the back they just have some more their information on here their gaming applications advanced thermal design which we'll get into which actually show the card military class for all that really means they use the highest quality components we've talked about this before last week when we unboxed our Lightning card there are high C CAP solid cap just all high-quality components is what that means and also something a little bit interesting for those looking to capture video I have something called the experience predator sheriff for fun so we'll actually get into that and with that said let's just show one more thing on here this is the nomenclature of the card so if you want to look these numbers up get more information or anything even though we will have it down there description you guys can check that out there's a little pop cap here I'm just gonna go ahead and pop that open the old box up like always there's a box in a box in a box and then box in a box watching it alone yeah but here we go upside down box this time so let's flip it back up on the right side and here we have the MSI now this thing always reminds me of a Ferrari with a dragon inside of it was like a Ferrari dragon or a dragon Ferrari pop it down now you guys have made a bunch of claims to me that you really don't care that much about the accessories but I have to show them to you guys otherwise it wouldn't be complete unboxing so let me just open this up here you guys have also said that they almost all have the same things in the box you're right they mostly do but there are some variations here we have right here may DisplayPort standard display port adapter 1 crossfire cable nice and flexible there 6 pin 8 pin power connector molex to 6-pin power connector DVI to VGA connector the drivers and utilities disc this will have everything including all their overclocking software and all that stuff will all be on side of this disc I would recommend though however though as soon as the card actually gets launched that you go to the website and make sure you keep updated through all the Indies software so box off to the side and then last we have the quick user's guide yada yada yada alright we'll get past that I knew you guys want to see the card without further ado card ton ton alright so little anti-static tag in the back here gonna pull that thing off there pull it on out of the box you guys can see in the top here we've got the red and black colors again very Ferrari ish with that little logo there again the gaming G Series now these guys have all their motherboard lines that actually match these as well so if you get their gaming G dish and motherboards or their gaming Edition motherboard so all have the same type of things we have two fans here in the front underneath that you guys can see all of the aluminum heat fins down on the bottom PCI insertion gonna just show you guys aside you guys can see the heat pipes running all along the card it's a two slot design flip it around the back you guys and once again see the fins here is the fan power connector right here keep flipping the card around actually I'll do this first here we have the 6 pin 8 pin power connector we can clearly see the heat pipe reading on the side here and here are some of the end points for that as well I'm just gonna flip the card around real quick so you guys can see they have their little MSI logo here then on the side we see two of the crossfire fingers black PCB you guys always prefer a black PCB here's just a little bit more information a car just basically saying what it is flip it around now last but not least to the rear i/o single DVI HDMI too many display ports now when they first launched the 7970 series cards they all looked identical this but as soon as people started putting on a lot of their aftermarket cooling stuff we saw these go to two DVI connectors mm I wonder if that'll be changing with this launch as well but for now this is it folks - ATX new r9 series from AMD everything that comes in the box of the new msi r9 280x Andy fans I know you guys have been waiting with almost holding your breath for almost years waiting for new stuff to come out well it's come out now these cards gonna be priced right around the $299 mark for all those who are interested in purchasing this you guys can check out all that information down there in the description below we'll have links to where you guys can purchase the card more information and also if you're looking for the full-on blown out review check it out over on our website www.ultratrust.com
