2015-02-23
welcome back once again fans to another edition of tech o tomorrow I'm Al Roker hosting today we're looking at another product from the people over at gigabyte this is their wind force edition of the GTX 980 now what's the wind force well the one force is basically their a high end overclocking card you can see the car that's sitting back behind me it obviously has three fans right in the front and it's totally black black in the front and black on the back because it's got a solid grille which you guys are gonna like I know one of the things that people like out there about cards when they had that nice shield in the back hey gigabyte did an absolutely fine job with this card I think by now that most people know most of the specs of the GTX 980 this one features a twelve hundred twenty eight megahertz standard clock with a thirteen twenty nine megahertz boost obviously the three fans it's got dual BIOS it has their flex technology which is for all the monitors you're gonna cut by a ton of monitors with this card so for those people out there or looking to use that type of technology to have multi monitors hey this card is equipped to do that and since the way it's made it's made for overclocking so let's take a closer look at the card right off the bat you guys can see there are three fans on the front like I said they all say gigabyte on them underneath that you can see the total cooling apparatus you can see all of the Heat fans you can see the copper heat pipes all that stuff is very prevalent when looking at the card you flip the card over to its side you can see the pcie 3.0 interface and once again you see more of the heatsink flipping the card over the backside you guys can see that there are five of the heat pipes they're all copper and you can clearly see them you can count them out from left to right one two three four five pretty interesting design flip the card around to its other side you guys can clearly see it has the wind force nomenclature right on the side of the card and you can see some more of the aluminum heat fins right there then we see the power connections there are two eight pin power connectors for this card now since the card has a dual BIOS I was looking around to see if there was a switch or anything to flip between the two BIOS is but I couldn't find that anywhere on the card up along the card and again we can see the two sli fingers and as we flip the card around in the back you can see the very tough back shield and you can also clearly see both the PCI interface and the my fingers once again as well as the g1 gaming and last but not least the rear aya which features a single D VII a single DVID you see there's three standard display ports and a single HDMI connection as far as the major specs go though for those who are actually our new cards based off the 28 nanometer process has a memory clock of seven gigabytes per second four gigabytes of gddr5 memory with a tune and 56 bit memory interface supports DirectX 12 opengl 4.4 the maximum resolution is 4096 by 2160 and the card size is in at 312 millimeters by 129 millimeters by 43 millimeters this will be translated into inches for us here in America the power requirements for the card are 600 watts and those are those two 8-pin external power connections that I showed you earlier in the video so that's what the card looks like and all of its basic specs now this is the wind for 600 out Edition card and with that said let's jump in let's check out the test system and then rock out to the benchmark song and see the schoolers all right folks so there you guys have it everything to know about the brand-new gtx 960 win for 600 our edition from the people over at gigabyte now before we bounce out of here though I have to give a special shout out and thanks the people over Harry Shave Club for making today's video very possible now you guys might be asking yourself who is Harry Shave Club well Harry Shave Club is pretty much kind of an online deal where they ship everything out to you now most of us guys don't really like to go shopping admit it we're kind of lazy we're just kicking at home and we're shopping hey honey can I pick up some razors some people more picky but most people have that gene in this want to kick it Harry's makes it very very easy to actually get your raises laughs and go there and deal with like stuff behind a plastic counter that you can't get to have to go bug people and get people to bother them this is just so much simpler and one of the cool things about Harry's is that all of their stuff is made in Germany it's German engineered and this stuff is really really good for the last few months I've been used my Winston kit and I gotta say I am impressed the razor's Flex I've got one of their kits right here and I think it's kind of safe folks it's a very interesting thing now this right here this is the Winston kit they actually have three kits that you can get your monthly subscription they have one for 15 one for 20 and one for 25 bucks this is the top of a line one due to the fact that it comes with everything including a very nice razor let me pop that little bad boy out of here let you guys actually see the razor now let me get over there to you guys here's the razor now the razor flexes though actually bends so when you're shaving and you're on your face the razor meets your face it makes for a very very close shave and due to the fact that these things are German engineer they're made of high quality products a razor can last two to three shades I mean if you're a person who shaves every day you practice change your razor at least once a week but the razors are very very nice and they have a bunch of different programs you can actually go on there and get on the monthly subscription program where it's only like $15 and you're getting old enough razors and your shaving thing right here to shave with so it's pretty cool like I said Harry shave club sends everything through the mail now you guys can see the kit that I received this is the Winston kit it contains three razors the shave gel the handle and everything you need to get started except for

see what it's like you can save yourselves five bucks right now just go over to Harry's comm place an order and inside there place the coupon code tomorrow and save yourself five bucks now for your German fans out there I got one thing to say about this kit and that is sign I know this product all right folks thank you guys once again for watching tech of tomorrow for those up there who didn't get to see the video for some reason missed it this thing under full load was running at 72 Celsius when it was idle it was at 36 so the cards running pretty cool now everything to do with the GPU boost for NVIDIA has to do with how cool the cards running so obviously with this type of cooling and everything in the card it's going to have the ability to be able to overclock even further the reason we don't do a whole lot of overclocking stuff is because everybody's results are going to vary depending the type of computer they have what type of cooling they're using how their system is everything is going to vary so I could show you mine and then be pretty cool but then your results at home might be a little bit different so for those looking to buy this card or more information down the like button there'll be a thing called show more just click that and we'll have all the information down there including where if you want to buy one of these you can pick one up for yourself they're going for about five hundred and seventy nine bucks right now but it is a high end gtx 980 card currently the top card in the single GPU ring from the people over at Nvidia I'm Eric thanks for watching ticker tomorrow once again don't forget if you want to get five bucks off you can head over to Harry's shave club and enter the code tomorrow to get five dollars off and clean yourself up in
