today reviewing the rtx NUMBER_TOKEN. this card sat quietly on the shelf and watched as we ran tests on the rx NUMBER_TOKENxt and muttered horrible things under our breaths as we watched the card suffer through one test after another and no doubt this NUMBER_TOKEN has been wondering what its fate will be in today's review we're gonna find out this is an rtx NUMBER_TOKEN xc asterisk evga and nvidia up the launch but we do still have a card to review before that this video is brought to you by arctic and the liquid freezer NUMBER_TOKEN line of liquid coolers which tested among the best in our thermal charts for cpu coolers the arctic liquid freezer series has had continual advancement since our original review with updates in the mounting kit including an amd offset bracket for better thermals and a longer warranty arctic also has its mx-NUMBER_TOKEN thermal compound available on the market now if you need some thermal paste for your regular maintenance learn more at the links in the description below so just before we get into this every evga rtx NUMBER_TOKEN that was sent out for review as we've been told by the companies had a mistake and and oops where they applied a v bios that's intended for a card whose msrp is NUMBER_TOKEN higher than what we thought this one would cost so this card uh in this state should be a NUMBER_TOKEN card msrp we're ignoring all the other stuff right now that means that the clock should be much lower than what it actually was running this card was actually running a frequency that is intended for something like an xc ultra or some overclocked pre-overclocked factory overclocked xc card where the price will be NUMBER_TOKEN higher than msrp so it'll be NUMBER_TOKEN higher price higher msrp for basically higher clocks out of the box now fortunately evga and nvidia were kind enough to tell us about this about maybe NUMBER_TOKEN hours before we needed to start filming which is after we had completed multiple days of testing on the device and with the general display of competence on show here we decided we would run with what we have and instead go off of an msrp of NUMBER_TOKEN since that's basically what we tested it boils down to this ebj offered another v bios we don't have infinite time and we can't go back in time to start running tests that will literally not be possible to complete before the review goes up the review is still valid the data is still valid uh we are however instead looking at a card that is above msrp for the rtx NUMBER_TOKEN line the performance difference between the NUMBER_TOKEN and the NUMBER_TOKEN cards is about two to three percent so this NUMBER_TOKEN version is about two to three percent better than the NUMBER_TOKEN version they did send out the other v bios but you know we're just going to review it as if it's the card it actually is which is the more expensive one okay so as we get into this we've got two test benches we're working with right now we are transferring all of our data from our old test bench which is a gen NUMBER_TOKEN platform to our new test bench was a gen NUMBER_TOKEN platform with the NUMBER_TOKEN kf that means that we're going to show multiples of each game as we go through gen NUMBER_TOKEN and gen
START_SPONSOR_TOKEN before that this video is brought to you by arctic and the liquid freezer NUMBER_TOKEN line of liquid coolers which tested among the best in our thermal charts for cpu coolers the arctic liquid freezer series has had continual advancement since our original review with updates in the mounting kit including an amd offset bracket for better thermals and a longer warranty arctic also has its mx-NUMBER_TOKEN thermal compound available on the market now if you need some thermal paste for your regular maintenance learn more at the links in the description below END_SPONSOR_TOKEN
