Gigabyte 6950 1GB OC Unboxing and Review [HD]

[quam0091]

Quick question for you, did the mounting of the fans to the card seem sort of squishy to you? like it did not have a firm connection. i am used to a fully enclosed gpu my old xfx gtx 260. just want to make sure my card is not defective. so if i slightly push on the fan panel toward the circuitry of the card it will move inward. please and thanks for your time.

[DipKins33]

would this card be good for bf3?

[Timx4]

@DipKins33 Nop you need gtx 580

[Kryp7K33p3r]

@Timx4 calling bullshit, this card will work fine

[ndogg360]

@Timx4

lol, no he wont. My 6870 runs BF3 on ultra at 1440x900 (shit res but still) perfectly fine. 6950 will play BF3 well.

[hevimetallimias]

Is Gigabyte good brand?

[MrGamesOfficial]

@hevimetallimias Gigabyte is not a bad brand

[BritishRider]

@hevimetallimias It's a great brand. One of the best.

[GodOfGamingBG]

having a hdmi and 2x dvi, I guess you might put 3x 1080p LED TVs in Eyefinity system, but In that case, I wonder if the card can handle playable FPSes on the current heaviest games. Anyone can tell me? Because I just might try building a system like this :D

[hevimetallimias]

@GodOfGamingBG Eyefinity for many monitors is done with Display Ports..

[MasterXCormic]

yes, the cooler is amazing, extremely quiet and temps have never gone over 55 degrees. 1 GB vs 2GB performance, the difference is tiny. This card is perfect.

[drummerdude100]

You didn't show much of the card. Bad unboxing.

[ComicPenius]

Gigabyte's 3-fan cards are quieter than most 1-fan cards even at idle.

[GamersCanGame]

im getting this with a crt monitor

[RedStarr2121]

the results at the end of the video doesn't really tell you if it's just from the one card or if it's CR.

[fayaadislam88]

hey man does the card support amd3d?

[PhilipDick2008]

the Gigabyte version of the HD6950 1 gb card seems to be the best with 870 mhz gpu speed...better than asus etc...Am I righ?

[TheWhooshBottle]

@MrGamesOfficial hey, can the gigabyte 6950 that uve got be flashed to 6970?

[gandalfdensvarte]

@TheWhooshBottle Nope, they removed that feature a while ago actually.

[dontcopy13]

What is the actual length of this card?

[XDeniled]

@MrGamesOffical :D thanks

[XDeniled]

Would this set up work?

AMD phenom II x4 970 3.5

Gigabyte 6950 1gb OC

Corsair 8gb DDR3 Dominator

I've also found a case with like 4-5 fans + thinking about putting a water cooled heatsink.

[MrGamesOfficial]

@XDeniled should be good man :) amd dragon spec

[MrGamesOfficial]

@Rand0Mism not sure, it should fit in all cases tho

[TranceDjFate]

@MrGamesOfficial you're kidding right?

[TranceDjFate]

Um dude, where are the benchmarks? lol

[b0uncyfr0]

I have this card and ive been unsuccesful unlocking the shaders. MrGamesOfficial you should try it, it might work for you. I read at least a dozen forums and in total 4 people got it unlocked.

PS have you overclocked? Whats are you running? And you found any way to control voltage?

[MrGamesOfficial]

@b0uncyfr0 i would try all of this stuff but this was for a computer that isnt mine! i will do this stuff on my own cards in the future

[MrTrinz]

@MrGamesOfficial How does it run on BF3?

[bajablo]

@MrTrinz I'm not MrGamesOfficial but i have it running on my system and running on high settings in 1920x1080 with next to no stuttering. I can only recommend that card

[zaknology]

was the gta 4 benchmark with max settings, aa and texture and so on?

[MrGamesOfficial]

@zaknology no it was on medium, i think i have the settings in the video details. i hope i do lol. Its like med low low low 20 10 10 10

[MiniExtreme]

i hate the blue pcb other than that nice card

[RoflkittenMeow]

meh,
