2016-09-28
today's video was sponsored in part by Braintree world youtube glad to see you guys back here once again on teka tomorrow and now the overclocking gloves are coming off and we're going to do a totally battle of the overclocking Giants now on one side we have AMD's our X 480 red double and on the other side we have EVGA super o'clock GTX 1060 now these cards are very close in price with the AMD one shockingly that's right a little higher price the AMD version that's right the red devil is two hundred and seventy nine dollars why EVGA is ten sixty is two hundred and fifty nine dollars so right off the bat you can see the EVGA is a little lower priced also the EVGA comes with six gigabytes of gddr5 and the other card comes with eight gigabytes of gddr5 so you can see right off the bat these cards are you know looking pretty even little things different but they're pretty even so we took these cards we overclocked them to their maximum values and now we're going to bring you those results and we'll see who actually is the overclocking King of the Ring in the entry-level cards so let's first take a look at our test system talk a little bit what we did and how we got our results and then we'll check out those bitches we're using the Intel i7 6700 kcp u now we keep this learning at turbo mode at 4.4 gigahertz we're also using an adze ROK z170 motherboard this is their overclocked edition we're also using 16 gigabytes of rip job memory from the people over at g.skill we use Windows 10 exclusively for all of our testing and we use the latest drivers available at the time of the testing as far as power requirements go the power color red devil has a single 8 pin power connector that requires 150 watts of power to keep it going the EVGA superclocked gtx 1060 has a single 6 pin power connector and only requires 120 watts of power now as far as temperatures go the Red Devil got as high as 68 Celsius and as long as it stayed below 72 Celsius the card ran fine the ebj super clock however it ran a little bit lower and showed a temp in the low 60s when it was clocked and even with the voltage and the fan speeds set to their maximum values the fan noise still wasn't so loud you want to cover your ears and with that said let's jump in and let's check out the benches and let's see who wins when the gloves come off in the overclocking ring real quick before we get to the conclusion I just want to give a special thanks and a shout out to our friends over at Braintree even the best mobile app will not work unless you have the proper payment API and that's where these folks come in to solve all your problems this is where brain trees V zero SDK comes in one amazingly simple integration gives you every way to pay it supports Android iOS and JavaScript clients and it offers a simple integration that you can do in minutes if this sounds good to you try it out for yourself in the sandbox all you gotta do is go WWE bring three payments comm /t o t so when the overclocking gloves come off and they jump in the arena we can see that the Nvidia card is still winning by a slight margin AMD did win in four or five games so if you're an AMD diehard fan we know that you're going to go out and get yourself an Rx 480 and you're going to be doing it Red Devil style but if you're a fan of Nvidia then you guys know the super clock edition of the GTX 1060 is a serious ass-kicker as well now the only caveat I see here is like I said before for the first time the AMD card is actually the higher price card and usually the biggest thing that I hear from AMD fans in general is that hey they have better pricing so here you guys can see though at this time it's not really true because their card even though it does have two more gigabytes of RAM it runs a little bit hotter you guys saw that does run a little bit hotter and that has something to do with overclocking and there still is a little bit of headroom that you might be able to push out of that 1060 so at the end of the day I mean if you're just looking at raw numbers and performance I think it's a no-brainer I think the Nvidia card actually is doing a little bit better but obviously if you're an AMD loyal fan you're not going to turn your back on the red guy so you're going to go with them but you guys see the numbers and hey honestly the RX 40 red devil when it's overclocked it does really well I mean it's really only like you know I mean such a wee margin behind that I don't think it's really going to matter so if you don't mind spend that 20 extra bucks and your an AMD fan hey then I guess via the choice is clear my name is Eric you guys been watching teka tomorrow like usual we'll have all the information this video of all the information about these cards so if you want to check one out and buy for yourself that'll all be down to that luck button you guys know what to do peace
