[MissleMan13]

@custumpcreview your videos have got me pc-building crazy. Trying to find good deals, looking up benchmarks, ect. And if youve got some unwanted hardware i would gladly take them off your hands :D

[madtomea2k9]

[madtomea2k9]

@custompcreview YAY :3 your awesome

[MissleMan13]

What do you do with your harware that you don't use anymore after your done reviewing? eBay?

[custompcreview]

@MissleMan13 Well, I usually I use it. Otherwise, ebay or I just give it away.

[7broly1000]

Lol...He has 69 videos ^.^

[keiki646]

the card is sooo damn sexy, make me want to hug it all night long, LOL

[custompcreview]

@keiki646 Yeah, it's pretty sick. Love the design. Looks like the Batmobile.

[keiki646]

@custompcreview now I want one, but I like my card for now, 5850w/Ekwaterblock O.C 1GHz/1300memory clock

[custompcreview]

@keiki646 Nice!

[GalaxyMicroUS]

Awesome video! Thanks for doing the un-boxing on our GTX 560!

[custompcreview]

@GalaxyMicroUS Thanks for the positive feedback. I'll have the full review up soon. So far so good. Pushed it up to 982MHz/1964MHz over the Christmas weekend. 172MHz overclock and temps held steady at 87c. Awesome. =D

[loganbook201]

@custompcreview What did you get your memory clock to?

[Gameconsoleman]

nvm watched the video lol

[Gameconsoleman]

question im getting this card in a week or two does it come with one of those 2x 4pin to pci express connectors my power supply only has 1 and wont be able to upgrade it for a few weeks and havent found anything online about it...

[loganbook201]

@Gameconsoleman no



[Knife7331]

Ati 5830 Same specs,lower price :x

[1330pc]

1 thing I do regret is HDMI output ports. When I built my PC I was not planning to have more than 1 monitor. Now I have 2 of them with only 1 HDMI output on my card. I wish I would have thought about this while buying:(

[custompcreview]

@1330pc You can get a DVI to HDMI adapter and connect the second monitor via DVI.

[1330pc]

@custompcreview If I do get a DVI to HDMI adapter i wont get the HDMI fetures of better quality and sound withit right? Also is there a big difference between DVI and HDMI?

[custompcreview]

@1330pc HDMI is just DVI + Audio + DRM. If you hook up DVI, then no audio and no DRM, but video quality is the same.

[1330pc]

I really like this review! It looks like a great card. The cooling solution is nice. Just to compare I have a ASUS GTX560 and it has all the same specs except the memory. Does that really effect gaming?

[custompcreview]

@1330pc Yeah it's a pretty sweet card. The memory won't affect performance as long as you're running at 1920x1200 or under. I think that's only a marketing gimmick by Galaxy since a lot of people think more memory = more performance.

[3HACKRZ]

dude on the antistatic bags the static disapates from the inside and gathers up on the outside.

[custompcreview]

@3HACKRZ Done it for years. Never had a damaged component lol. If it helps you sleep better at night though, I'll stop =P

[3HACKRZ]

@custompcreview lol just one of the things that i learnt at collage. probably a load of crap like them anti static bands. that's one of the main reason's that the case is metal because most of the time you touch that before the components.

[Thedriftor]

@custompcreview I am in a state of indecision. I would like to build a new PC. I know the basics, what I need to build it. I just can't decide ATI or nVidia. I do like Morphological AA, though.

[3HACKRZ]

@Thedriftor it is really up to you or what you are going to be using it for. my opinion nvidia is better performance for your money and often used for better rendering times with the extra cuda cores. but ati works just aswel

[custompcreview]

@Thedriftor What games do you play most?

[Thedriftor]

@custompcreview I like to play TF2, CIV, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., ARMA, Killing Floor, The Witcher, and Starcraft. The resolution I use is 1920 by 1200. But I am starting to lean towards ATI, just for Eyefinity, as from what I know, ATI lets us use multiple monitors with one card.

[custompcreview]

@Thedriftor Well if you're looking for eyefinity you definitely need AMD. I would wait until January 9. The new AMD HD7900 series graphics card is coming out and from the specs, those things look like absolute monsters.

[Thedriftor]

@custompcreview Well according to Anandtech and Tom's Hardware they are just rebadges of the current 6000 series GPUs. Maybe I read the articles wrong? I did skim them. Thanks for replying, man :)

[custompcreview]

@Thedriftor No... Check the specs. HD7970 is packing 2048 cores, 3gb gddr5 and 384 bit memory interface. HD6970 packs 1536 cores, 2gb gddr5 and a 256 bit memory interface. Looks like a bit more than a simple rebranding...

[crazy88boss]

@custompcreview Where would these specs be? I've only heard rumors about them so far.

[custompcreview]

@crazy88boss PM me. Web addresses don't work on comments.

[1997kx]

expensiveeeeeeeeee

[Techthisbuffalo]

great vids man keep em coming and make a video about ur personal pc plz!!!

[Pollack007]

make sure ur video card has 2 of them? u ment to say make sure ur psu has 2 of them right?

[custompcreview]

@Pollack007 Yeah, I put a note in the video but I guess nobody watches for the notes. I'll start rerecording from now on rofl.

[TalesOfWar]

@custompcreview Annotations also don't show up for HTML5 videos (or folk who block Flash, and instead force it to play the raw H.264 video), so best to make a note in the description too if you don't feel like redoing the audio lol. Then more people won't read it, but it'll be there, and you can use the "RTFD!" acronym of win! haha. OK I think I need sleep.

[custompcreview]

@TalesOfWar I didn't use an annotation. I hardcoded it into the video lol...

[TalesOfWar]

@custompcreview So you did. Like I said, I think I need sleep lol. Still, incase you didn't already know, always good to know about annotations!

[custompcreview]

@TalesOfWar Haha we all need a bit more sleep. Must be why I say video card when I think PSU. *epicfail* rofl. thx for the advice on annotations!

[Pollack007]

Where do u get all this money? u rich?

[custompcreview]

@Pollack007 I sell stuff to people for money. I'm not rich.

[KhanTutorials]

Does a Nvidia GeForce 210 graphics card need to be connected to the power supply? because i'm buying an asus one..

[YouEatMyDust]

@KhanTutorials i would be supprised if it did. But check on what ever site your getting it from (or the box if its from a store)

[custompcreview]

@iShowYouGamesAndTech A couple more FPS and it's pretty much guaranteed from the manufacturer that it will be stable at that speed. I've also heard that pre-oc'ed chips are typically the higher binned chips as well so they have more potential for more OCing.

[nAcolz]

I've got a question:

If I have GTX560ti 1GB MSI TwinFrozrII OC Edition can I SLI it with this one? Or does it not work like this? :D

[custompcreview]

@nAcolz I don't think you can. You need a 560Ti to SLI up with. You also probably want an overclocked one so that you SLI at the overclocked speed. I believe SLI will drop to the speed of the slower card.

[nAcolz]

@custompcreview

Oh I did not notice that this is only GTX560 without ti :D:D So my question should be can I pair MSI GTX560ti 1GB with for example Gainward GTX560ti 2GB?

[custompcreview]

@nAcolz Yes, but if one card is overclocked and the other one not, it will match the slower card. Same with the memory.

[nAcolz]

@iShowYouGamesAndTech

why not? some are hard to overclock if they are not made for over clocking and it's better to have OC'd gfx card

[HoLLYWOOD681]

@iShowYouGamesAndTech Why not? The GTX 580 OC'd is the same price. Why not?

[krgeek]

3:40 *your power supply

[exoticg9]

@krgeek his mistake x)

[atomdragon4]

@krgeek I was just about to comment that LOL nice spot

[custompcreview]

@krgeek lol yeah I put a note in the video but I guess nobody watches that. =(

[ByLyel]

Do you know why they stopped selling my GPU? the..

ATI 6970 Black Edition

Not even anyone sells it second hand, i feel like im the only one with it :D

[Black8035]

@ByLyel Isn't that a GPU that has two graphics cards?

If so, then I guess it may be its high price and/or its size.

[ByLyel]

@Black8035 No, my Gpu is the 6970, your thinking of the 6990 with has two GPU's underclocked. i was just wondering why my gpu doesnt get sold anymore :(

[trannghi7707]

@Black8035 lol i would say it's a graphic card with 2 gpu :P

[custompcreview]

@ByLyel Not sure... You mean XFX right? It's probably because the 7000 series Radeons are coming out in January so they're slowing production on the top end cards since they're a bit harder to sell than mid range cards. Either that or a whole bunch of people bought the video cards for bit coin and the supply is shot.

[ByLyel]

@custompcreview Yeah my XFX card :)

Well its just sort of a bummer because i was going to go crossfire but i guess i just have to now get a standard 6970 and OC it myself :D

[dklito]

Btw nice to see non-common unboxing.

[dklito]

Wasnt that DVI to VGA adapter, not other way around? :)

[custompcreview]

@dklito haha yeah it is too. I'm referring to dvi male to a vga female. =D

[ZeroSection]

It looks promising. I like the custom cooling solution they have on top of it.

[custompcreview]

@ZeroSection Yeah it look pretty sweet. Got the batmobile look I think lol

[SirShfvingle]

Glad to see unboxings of companies other than your normal MSI, Gigabyte, ASUS bunch.

[custompcreview]

@SirShfvingle Yup. The "other" companies do produce some pretty good graphics cards. I mean they're all based off the original Nvidia or AMD gpu design so If you can find one of these Galaxys or whatever on discount there's no reason not to pick one up.

[15killa16]

Thats awesome :O
