Asus Ares WORLD FIRST HANDS ON

[pwfordever]

Ok now we have seen the video cards get to an obese state. Now try to find ways to make them more efficient and lose some of that weight because the size is getting stupid

[zoomerzrewl]

the ares 2 should be two fully clocked 6990s on a single card XD

[pwfordever]

@zoomerzrewl or even better dual 6670s overclocked!

[zoomerzrewl]

@pwfordever I hope I'm the only one that reads your reply to my comment dude. lol You should too

[TheBonerificCinema]

[woahcoolwaffles121]

@BricePash bro, it's called an accent. but then again, there's totally a way to change our voices, yeah. here let me help you change yours, ill just get a knife and rearrange your vocal cords for ya.

[hereschester]

@BricePash You are a smart one eh? In the US army? Marines? they are world-renowned for their intelligence. I can imagine all the guys your girlfriend fucked while you were yee-hawin and killing them AyRabs.

[THE16THPHANTOM]

meanest looking gpu i ever seen

[Boobertflobert]

If Crossfire and SLI would scale, I think ASUS would be gods.

[Erde04]

@Boobertflobert nVidia wouldn't allow it

[James32xp]

thought your giving away the other one :( sand panda 

[1BYEBYE1]

hehe i have the same mouse!

[TheOrgil220]

I bet it's more worth than the US president's top secret files, judging from the suitcase

[showrider99]

Looks pretty short for a Dual gpu :D

[0kamiloss]

kosmiczna technologia xD

[ultraNewt]

im gonna pop the "card" out... at this point its not a card

[TheSemperXFi]

Linus did it first lol

[djayness]

Jesus, do you ever edit your videos? 

[xRyuBu]

I would cry if most of the money from the whole kit came from the power supply's!

[xARxJabala]

HE IS BUSTING HIS BOWLS!

[stewood1000]

@xARxJabala BULLS**

[heratus007]

well made for sure

[5T34LTHcamoT4NK]

PC pron much?

[5T34LTHcamoT4NK]

[TheWinston1997]

I would buy one just for that case.

[MrAircraft999]

no top comments! this is my a chance! ummmmm GIMME THAT!

[mikespike502005]

@MrAircraft999

Disliked just because youre a fucking looser

[vashz566]

is it ok to play pac man ?..:)

[3blufire]

@vashz566

XD>>>> HAHA >>> and spend more than300 bucks only to play pacman

[goofynewfie12]

did you take this from a jet turbine?

[DickHead69able]

the fuck is this??

for a car engine or some shit??

[anzenxxii]

@DickHead69able if it were a car engine it'd be "Turbocharged V8 Twin Turbo V8 Engine". one of the strongest car engines in the world. if a racing engine is to a gaming gpu, then it's easy to say that having these bad boys means having one of the best gaming pcs in the world.

[TheTrafficker85]

Damn dude, please correct your pronunciation of the word ASUS!!! -Its Ay-soos

[arktikgraywolf]

@TheTrafficker85 actually its ASUss not Ay-soos.

[TheTrafficker85]

@arktikgraywolf oh really? So I guess Asus employees are also going round pronouncing their company name incorrectly huh? check out this link: watch?v=hjjoGtXV6pY

[arktikgraywolf]

@TheTrafficker85 Yes really i guess your just as stupid as the woman on the video and those employees whom you speak of. Here it is in Chinese/Tai 華碩電腦 go to google and spell it out for your self with pronouncer button. I dont know how else to explain it. The word comes from Pegasus, they took away Peg, that makes asus. The way you say it is a typical ingnorant american pronounciation.

[arktikgraywolf]

@arktikgraywolf My bad, your from GB. Doesnt change the fact that your lazy like Americans to look he shit up properly.

[TheTrafficker85]

@arktikgraywolf coming from an American I find that comment amusing. No matter what BS you're quoting its still nonsense. now stop being such a touchy little poof! xD

[arktikgraywolf]

@TheTrafficker85 whatever you say, faggot  ^^

[TheTrafficker85]

@arktikgraywolf Sure thing fudge packer! xD

[TheJaccoman]

you allmost will let it stay in the box

[32ndegree]

These cards are Old news they are not even as good as the Nvidia 295 GTX or are as an equivalent. the onboard ramm is the only big deal and thats not even a big deal. a Quad GPU Board is a big deal. he overcooked this reveiw. alot.

[lineriderSTi]

@32ndegree what shit are you spouting? a 5870 just totally shits on a 275. "the onboard ramm is the only big deal and thats not even a big deal.“ makes no sense, and there is nothing amazing about its vram or any other card at that time for that matter. there is no such thing as a quad gpu board as of today. notice how this video is more than one year old.

[ninosM1]

@32ndegree wtf dude ... this card is 3 times faster than 295

[32ndegree]

@ninosM1 Err actually no it is not,

The ASUS EN GTX Dual GPU GTX 295 has less onboard memory same speed memory but in Game play this card is big old and a limited edition Gimick.

[32ndegree]

@ninosM1 Err actually no it is not,

The ASUS EN GTX Dual GPU GTX 295 has less onboard memory same speed memory but in Game play this card is big old and a limited edition Gimick. Big Hunk Of SHIT. I know i used 2 in SLI with ASUS P6TD Deluxe and i7 s1366 975 Extreme. It is slower than the ASUS GTX 295 in all tests except for loading and thats debatable.

[ninosM1]

@32ndegree hmm k lol

[QualityCompare]

@32ndegree And Asus Mars 2 is going to cost you about 300 Bucks more on the electricbill, and jesus make SLI Mars 2, that is just astronomical power consumer.

[alexinnitro2]

@QualityCompare

If you're able to acquire two Mars II's, I don't think your electric bill is an issue lol. Considering the only way you can get them is in an extremely expensive combo.

But it would be insane, no doubt!

[QualityCompare]

@alexinnitro2 You don't think? I repeat my words with diffrent start, ok: it wasn't assumption, it was based on tests. Thank You.

[QualityCompare]

@alexinnitro2 And those tests were on my computer setup, i sold the cards, ridicilous powerconsumers, now i use GTX 590 on Sli

[alexinnitro2]

@QualityCompare

That sounds like a pretty sick setup man.

I'm running a 1090T@4.025GHZ with a 5970 OC'd.

It's not gonna bench like yours lol, but it does what I need it to do.

[TheTrafficker85]

@32ndegree dude you clearly know nothing, now GTFO.

[Nozyspy]

Ye gods, it cost a thousand quid and he took it apart?! o.O

[mikey5110]

it must cost them quite a bite to make 

[PlayNChilllStudio]

So limited it has to be in a case of metal lol

[freemusicblogg]

What point of this product...Ok, someone need strong card, but why to spend money on package that's included costs. And it will be crap, like any other old card for 2-3 years. I'm proud of my integrated graphic card, 3 years or more old motherboard. It works flawless, runs every 1080p movie. And I'm not a gaming freak. So, I saved about 1200$, enough to buy used car. :))

[pitomba125]

@freemusicblogg Thats the whole point. If your not gaming you don't need a good graphics card, you dont need a good graphics card at all for 1080p movies. If you're saying whats the point of buying a graphics card, you can't do shit with onboard graphics, especially if you play games. And I don't know why you would be proud of your intergrated piece of shit. Try and run even a game with bad graphics and you will be saying otherwise. And you can get a good graphics card for 150 dollars.

[freemusicblogg]

@pitomba125 Of course, onboard graphic is primitive, but does the mostly of job for average user. No, I didn't say that all people who are buying cards are idiots. Sure, gamers will tend to install that piece. But, such expensive card? There are bunch of cards that will almost the same job for double or quarter less money.

[8wealthyone8]

all those detail shots and he dont even show the front where lcd plugs in. omg what a fail!

[SuperCoolTech4life]

LOVE THE BOX

[ZnEaKySpyNL]

I think you can sit on it and cool your ass

[SlugNation]

Looks so heavy it looks like it will snap off if you put it on your mobo in a right-up case!

[Wheelchairdude101]

amazing for the day these came out!

[AmpedAL]

It's just a dual 5870... not that impressive.

[Dicertification]

@AmpedAL

You don't have a clue.

[GravitationalFilms]

8=D



[lewisner]

What I never understand....they make these beautiful bits of kit but orient them downwards so all you see is a boring black PCB. I used to have a pair of Gigabyte 6800 GT's and they were gold coloured facing upwards with blue LED fans - real pieces of bling for your PC

[THuGZZTA]

@lewisner

Haha yeah I know what you mean. Before I built my own system I had a dell which has the motherboard on the right side of the case making it upside down. I liked looking at my 6800 and when I built my pc I was like wtf?

[537OH55V]

Yes! Before you ask, it WILL blend. And so will your face if you insist on asking.

[elwinderzoid]

sexy

[SuperDarkroman]

@HDxZelda

Uhm, you know that this video is one year old ??

BTW, you CPU is not the best, Sandybridge is much better.

But in fact there isn´t the BEST vido card or CPU, because the next day it is old too and newer hardware will own it.

[TheCruzmeister]

@SuperDarkroman Uhm, you know this video is one year old ??

The Asus Ares was the fastest, when it came out. You know this because you stated how fast computer hardware is replaced with newer and faster stuff.

[Ma7uS1]

@TheCruzmeister Still have all that stuff.. u know, is unique, no matter if is old tech. Still.. these limated cards are so so so powerful.. can be use it with no problem on gaming performance for at least 2 years+

[b0bthekillar]

will they be bringing out another ares card soon, dual 6970's?

[Michal1982Michal1982]

You should connect these mouses into Crossfire. XD

[RyansworId]

@SGStudios13 ASUS

[WIN7GT]

I just hope you have your own mini nuclear plant, because this baby gonna eat LOT of electrons.

[13jgoose]

Ridiculous card, I have heard many negative things about ASUS video cards. Have they started to invest more into their video cards? How close do you feel ASUS video cards are to their motherboards?-Probably the best manufacturer of motherboards in my limited experience.

[cgtkl]

In one year this graphic will be a fucking shit against HD 8000 (maybe too HD 7000) and GeForce 600/700 series.

[MouthofSaurons]

@HDxZelda I hope you have a monitor high res enough to make use of that

[PaniqFoxx]

@HDxZelda Ok. How old are you?

[NOXXism]

@HDxZelda lol noob

[MrRoboman333]

hey how well would this preform against a Asus Radeon 6870

[kalvinmeek]

that's a huge ass box. 

[xBuzz996]

god damnit its so sexy

[stylos951]

asus makes only 1000 of them WTF what happens if i wanne buy it but they out of stock im gonne go RAMPAGE going to buy XFX Radeon HD 5970 Black Edition Limited but the one site where i buy my PC stuff (ALTERNATE) is out of stock im looking like a mad man all over the internet to get one (in the NETHETLANDS)

[theTNTclub1997]

[errantfalcon]

imagine that power (at that time) of 4 5870

now imagine it at this time , 4 ati radeons hd 6990 OMG

[zeusgod007]

@errantfalcon now imagine asus mars II, BITCH..!!!

[LeevuskaRakastaa]

i'm at epic huge lanparty / demopartry. one guy won 6 minute drawing compositon by asus and won this. he drew one crappy ass drawing and everybody was like ! WOOOHOOOO!! now he is quite happy :D

[funkymunky65]

@TimeToLiveCustoms Do you get to keep the cards?

[prisonbreak931]

I will say again, as my comment was deleted, this guy provides very little tecvhincal details but just the obvious.

[gabbou94]

I WANT IT

[SandKnowHow]

Lolz..... a graphic card in this caliber and then there is only 1 DVI Output...

[schwarzfahrer1994]

@SandKnowHow and only one Crossfire port ^^

[nabeel09cs25]

whats its prizie......?

[sangolt88]

It was an ok buy back in the days, but today its a really unwise buy haha. 

[Chilla615]

"alu-minium" ? haha

[error262]

4:45 what the f are you talking about?? lol

[circuitization]

"for gods sake, stop sending this power cables..."

[snakefaceproductionz]

Why do you always act and look so mellow and tired?

[itouchhacker241]

holy shit how many watts of power dose that card use?

[maxman2324]

I just love the suitcase!

[arturaxmal]

mine godfather gots asus rog ares

[iChetoz]

holy crap you are ugly :)

[slklmk]

not to complicated... they give him the cards, he puts a vid and all of us geek salivate and get them a full pop :D

[5468295]

this vs. the 6990?

[TheTerriblePuddle]

Will you get two MARS II too??

[johnchristian0131]

you busted your balls for that?

[Miller6616]

@jrdgzmn1 Yeah and think where PC games would be now if the PS3 and Xbox360 never existed, bloody consoles.

PC Games used to Push PC development and vise versa , where as now console developers are stuck with what they have, thus stagnating games and they aren't planning to bring any new consoles out till 2016 :(

Looking forward to BF3 though , looks awesome..

[grudgekid12]

finally someone saying asus the same way i do

[plasticsandvich92]

this card is more expensive than my entire pc xD

[F1N1SHEDD]

Tell me how you got these for free you Brit. Is it because you advertise their cards on youtube? Tell me your secrets

[Gregoric399]

if you put that on an MATX it looks like the weight would snap it in half :P

[edtk99]

for this price buy a SLI of GTX 580 3 GB and for the price of two ARES buy a 4 way sli of GTX 580 3 GB this will be alot faster

[nilbud]

@edtk99 It's a fucking year old vid man.

[nahuelfantino]

THESE THINGS ARE NO LONGER TO B CALLED GRAPHIC "CARDS" BUT GRAPHIC "BRICKS"

[ItchyTrojan]

waiting for ASUS GTX 595...

[bassesweswe]

I don't see why any1 woulden't sub :P

[VelCro8112]

haha, nerdy video... ME LIKE SO MUCH

[WARGIRLWARGIRL]

Waouuuuuuuu! My jaw just drop!

[Miller6616]

To play what exactly ? games are being dumbed down and held back in the graphics department,all thanks to bloody consoles and greedy, lazy developers. just look at Crysis 2 my mate only has an 8800gts and it plays on extreme with no slow up. Once upon a time you needed to upgrade every 2 -3 years just to keep pace with game development, but now there doesn't seem a point.

[NateMac55555]

I think every card should come with a game that it runs best on, but with this card it's impossible because you'd have every game in North America in that box. ;)

[nilbud]

@NateMac55555 Fuck North America up the hole

[Snowdre]

why would you want sli that?

[kvswim]

@Snowdre it would be xfire, not sli

[5468295]

is this better then the new 6990? i'd like to see those benchmarks

[kav3tube]

MASSIVE!!!

[xjay2kayx]

So it can run minecraft at full settings?

[TheEclipzeGamer]

@xjay2kayx haha good 1

[REECE2PARK]

@xjay2kayx dude i have a 6870 and i cant play legid mincraft :( but cracked works lolol

[ballshavins1234]

[MLWALK3R]

[greyfoxzero]

[Skafeina]

[jthotshot]

Mind = blown

[hmmMisterhankey]

[TimeToLiveCustoms]

[TimeToLiveCustoms]

@MrComputereviews Sponsors are for the public. I get direct support from the companies dude. Thats how the industry works for Pro's. Anyone with sponsors is an amature.

[Xipack16]

@TimeToLiveCustoms you get a sub for this comment
