EVGA GTX 1080 Classified, Hybrid, & FTW _ Computex

We're at Compuex 2016 in the EVGA suite and now we're looking at some of the new 1080s and 1070s from EVGA. So, we've got the classified which is this massive one, there's an FTW uh which is off screen actually an SC, and then the hybrid which I'm just going to say we built one of these but this one does look a lot better.

First, let's talk about the classified first. This one's the obvious monster of the group. It is uh price to be determined. The power setup is two 8-pin pretty crazy and this actually plugs into the top of it. This is a a power link and all this does is power management or cable management stuff so you plug that in the top and then it routes the cables out the side instead of out the top. If you're crazy about Cable Management, that's really all that does.

Now, power phases it's a 14 plus three phase setup so it's three phases for the memory 14 for the core uh vrm and that makes it the most extreme vrm we've looked at so far this show. Uh Power two 8-pin on the top gives you somewhere in the 250300 range again maybe a little more, and there is a custom V bios that we're not sure on the voltage limitations right now we'll have to test that later uh classified again is price TBD.

The FTW which is off screen here is a uh 10 plus two phase setup and is actually basically the same card as is in this hybrid. So when I talk about FTW and hybrid, they're pretty much the same spec except for the liquid cooler, which is the important part of course, that's a 10 plus two phase uh it's got an extra power header on top as well just like the classified does and that gives you more room in theory for overclocking as long as the voltage is uh is more flexible than reference.

Then the hybrid card has the ace attack cooler on it so it's got an aack cooler down here on the core cables route out through the top of the Shroud. The Shroud is the updated metal shroud from EVGA that shipped after the initial launch of the 980ti hybrid. So in terms of thermals, we have actually tested this I can talk about it now, we were seeing about an 18° C Delta ambient or Delta versus ambient temperature for the hybrid card on the 1080 and that's as opposed to 50 something 53 I think Celsius maybe 54 uh for the reference 1080 so pretty big difference there and definitely helps with the uh thermal throttling we were seeing on the clock rate at certain temperatures and with certain games.

The SC card is this one here, it's the cheaper card. It's a 100 MHz offset from the reference version of the 1080 and that gives you a bit higher clock rate but it's cheaper so it sells at 650. This is one of the only ones we have a price on uh 650 for this it puts it below $50 below reference and it's the only difference really is the ACX 3.0 cooler. It's still got the normal 8 Pin power header there's no extra header on there and uh it's pretty standard card.

The ACX 3.0 updates will post in the article, linked In the description below low but the main one is the heat pipes. So the copper heat pipes usually have a small Gap around them cuz they're round and so that small Gap has been filled in by a copper or similar metal to help improve thermal conductivity around the perimeter of the heat pipes.

The FTW 1080 is priced at $680 that's $650 that's TBD this is TBD, and then we've got this which is also a TBD price uh but it's got the ACX 3.0 cooler it's an SC version so basically reference but probably cheaper and a better cooler definitely. So that sums up EVGA's suite here at Compuex 2016 as always more information linked below for article coverage or hit the art hit the channel link and check out the previous videos from other video card vendors. Thank you for watching, patreon link the P video I'll see you all next time.
