How's It Going: Benchmarking the EVGA GTX 770 Super Clock
Hi everyone, it's Kyle here with Awesome Sauce News today, and I'm going to be doing a quick little video on essentially benchmarking the EVGA GTX 770 Super Clock. The reason for that is well, if you haven't noticed or if you haven't been watching the Newegg TV channel lately, I've actually been filling in for Paul quite a bit just because he's been in Taiwan for the last couple of days. So, I've been doing some unboxing videos trying to offload some of the work that he usually does for the channel. And, I've been doing a lot of GTX 770 videos lately, especially since they just came out.
From the cards that I was looking at, the one that caught my eye the most was the EVGA GTX 770 Super Clock. Not so much just because of the performance, well, that too, but also because of its aftermarket cooler. And, I'm talking about the brand new one that they just implemented into their 700 series of cards, which is the Active Cooling Extreme or the ACX Cooler as they're calling it. So, I just kind of wanted to test it out and see how the thermals did and all around just how the performance of the GTX 770 does with today's high-end games.
I tested a few games today, and I'm going to show them to you in just a second. Here's some nice footage, as well as b-roll of the card itself. Just a really stunning looking cooler by the way, as well as kind of what urged me to take it home and test it personally. Just because it looks really nice, kind of has a very classy elegant look to it. And, I'm not going to lie, I'm a sucker for aesthetics.
These are just some casual benchmarks that I didn't compare the card to any other cards just because I'm pretty strapped for time with Taiwan coming up pretty soon, and I leave Saturday so I'm trying to crunch a lot of things right now. But, I thought I'd get this last video out there before I hop on a plane and fly to Taiwan.
So, all right guys, so those are the benchmarks, and what have we learned from the results today? Well, for starters, we can say clearly that the GTX 770 is a pretty badass card. And, you should be able to achieve very playable frame rates if not gluttonous frame rates for all today's top games especially if you don't crank up everything too far to the max.
I remember cranking up Metro Last Light just completely maxed out, and I think I was getting like an average of 28 frames per second. But, essentially you know, you turn down a little bit of anti-aliasing here and there, or whatever it is, and you should be good to go. This is just a really good card.
And, essentially also, I wanted to note the cooler did fairly well as well. So, I was seeing temps and as you guys saw in the mid 70s for most of the games. There were only two games where the card actually achieved or actually hit 81 degrees Celsius, and that was for Bioshock Infinite and Metro Last Light. Of course, the car didn't get hotter than that because of NVIDIA's GPU Boost 2.0.
Basically, all the 700 series cards that come shipped are defaulted at an 80 degrees Celsius temperature target. All the other games were staying relatively cool pretty much matching what my Direct CU 2 GTX 670 is able to achieve. Very impressive stuff with the Active Cooling Extreme cooling design that EVGA has most recently implemented into their 700 series card.
So, glad to say that definitely recommend this card for anyone looking for an upgrade or if you're just looking to build a system and you're looking for some really powerful performance with really decent thermals. Definitely the EVGA GTX 770 Super Clock is the way to go, or at least one of the ways to go.
But, that's all for now guys. Thank you all for watching this video please subscribe to the channel if you haven't already send me a like and I'll see you guys in the next video.

too but uh all the cards i was looking at at newegg were pretty much more or less the same as far as specs go i mean there was a bit of a difference between base clock and boost clock frequencies just depending on the factory overclock settings that the manufacturer had used but essentially the thing that stuck out to me most about the evga card was its aftermarket cooler and then i'm talking about the brand new one that they just implemented into their 700 series of cards which is the active cooling extreme or the acx cooler as they're calling it so i just kind of wanted to test it out see how
