2013-03-26
good morning campers it's 5:00 a.m. and I'm yeah I'm trying to wake up you guys can hear it my little voice urk a kind of a froggy still there but it's 5:00 a.m. welcome to techyv tomorrow I'm mark your host we're bringing you all the tech all the time so what's on our tech plate today well today we're going to be feasting and taking a look at the brand new card from the people from Nvidia that's right Big Green is back with another launch this launches for the mid-range market the car we're going to be talking about today is their new GTX 650 Ti boost edition card now what's different this than the standard edition 650 TI card one of the biggest changes is actually the memory interface and the amount of RAM that sums on the standard card so with that said let's actually jump in and let's check out the latest card from big green now let's actually take a look at the aesthetics of the card now take into mind that the card that we're looking at today is the reference based model but let's go ahead and jump in first off let's take a measuring we can see that the card size is in at nine and a half inches nice little lazy please are there see if the card is one and a half inches in its thickness and as far as the height of the card goes the card is three and a half inches in height so those the dimension of the card you guys can see it has a single black shroud single blower type fan connection now let's go ahead let's take a look at the side of the card you guys can see it's a two slot configuration on the bottom we see the PCI 3.0 interface you can see that on this card there is an sli interface up here on top and this card will actually do sli this is a difference between its previous generation card which we'll get to later we also see a single six pin power connection here on the back of the card you can see it has a black PCB and there's actually a little bit more room on the card then actually you see the length of the card is actually being determined by the shroud and the fan the actual PCB the card is much smaller the actual PCB of the card without that shroud could be seven inches now let's flip it around and let's take a look at the rear i/o on the row we see a single link DVI connector on top dual link DVI and the them standard HDMI and standard DisplayPort connections okay folks so I know that a lot of people are going to want to know the comparisons between this and the previous generation 650 T I now want you guys to take note and we're going to show you here in these next shots I'll be showing you this reference base card against the original reference based GTX 650 Ti and I'll also be showing you the two gigabyte version from gigabyte which is a lot of ways similar to this card of the memory interface so let's jump in let's check out those the reference card we're looking at right now is the 650 Ti boots it's the GK 106 it has 768 cuda cores a base clock of 900 megahertz and a boost clock of a thousand 33 megahertz comes with 2 gigabytes of gddr5 with 192 bit memory interface the memory clock is 6 gigahertz and it has a hundred and forty two point two gigabytes of total memory bandwidth and this card can also do sli now let's take a look now at the gigabyte 650 TI 2 gigabyte now this card also has 768 cuda cores but it has a base clock of ten hundred and thirty two megahertz now there's no boost on this at all but the base clock is pretty much getting really close to what the boost clock is of the new card the gigabyte version also comes with 2 gigabytes of gddr5 memory and it is a 128-bit memory interface with a memory clock of 5.4 gigahertz 86.4 gigabytes of total memory bandwidth no sli now on the reference card that i originally got from nvidia was a 1 gigabyte edition that was just the GTX 650 TI 1 gigabyte it still had 768 cuda cores but it had a base clock of 925 megahertz and no boost it also had one gigabyte of gddr5 with 128-bit memory interface it's memory clock and total effective memory bandwidth though are exactly the same as the gigabyte 2 gigabyte card now all these cards feature adaptive vsync TxAA they all have PhysX and another really cool thing that's rolled out is the new geforce experience if you guys haven't tried this out you should check it out basically you download this program and it keeps all of your drivers and everything up-to-date on your computer so that's pretty cool stuff you install it and so they have to go search it tells you hey a new drivers there man come check it out and so you go grab it install it easy money and easy to do so what you guys can see is the biggest difference here between the new 650 Ti boost and the 650 Ti are just a few things on the new car we see 192 bit memory interface on all the older cards we see 128 bit memory interface now this makes a big difference the memory balance is much higher which means you're going to get a lot better results also having a 2 gigabyte card is going to be much faster and much better with all the textures and everything up then a 1 gigabyte card so with that said let's jump into testing like usual folks I'm still using my red dawn back here if you guys haven't seen about explains more about it it's on the SRX buy EVGA it's got 2 5 2660 CPUs running at 2.2 gigahertz no they don't bottleneck these cards 80 gigabytes around from the people over at patriot thanks god peace bro also David Kingston piece brother thank you very much for the dual phone and 80 gigabyte drives that I have back there in raid 0 there's their HyperX versions that are really nice so I know it's kind of overkill and I use a system for both workstations stuff for editing and for gaming and it works pretty good so with that said let's rock out to the new benchmark song and check out some scores okay folks so there you see it the brand-new card from the Green Team new GeForce GTX 650 Ti boost now this card obviously if you're seeing all the scores everything you can see that this card in its class is pretty much the fastest thing out there right now for this price range you know it's the winner right now now the last week's result that we see with the 77 90 they were you know pretty close but I think the thing that really kills is seventy seven ninety though is that it only has one gigabyte remember I just think that close the card nowadays one gigabytes kinda like it's like you have the very bottom of the heat from mid-level card I think two gigabytes is now that three gigabytes is for a better card six gigabytes for the a sticker of the bunch at this moment in time so you guys can see this cards going to be about a hundred and seventy nine dollars there'll be different models by different makers once again to squeeze the reference edition cards from Nvidia you know you know everybody out there is going to have their own cooling their own special stuff you see all the manufactures put on stuff saying hey check out mine mine's the best you guys know it is I just works out better for us as the Nu now we showed you guys half of the scores in this we have the other half of the full written review we kind of skim things over the video review for you guys want the full in depth review please check it out on our website www.weg.net like button shown that you appreciate us here and hey stay sub that drawl I look like five or five of them were to film this thing for you see you later
