518: Chapter 518 Superior Game Performance
When it came to the topic of slicing techniques, the gamers who had been lurking suddenly stood up; after all, everyone knew Old Huang's character very well.
This really was something he would do.
However, they didn't discuss it for long before they were quickly attracted by a graphics card that appeared on the big screen.
"Let's start with the terminal products."
Old Huang pressed the remote control in his hand, and renderings of two graphics cards appeared on the screen:
"First is our GTX750 series."
Two graphics cards appeared on the screen instantly, namely the GTX750 and the GTX750ti.
"First is the GTX750, which is our hot-selling product, so this time it has received a significant upgrade. First, it has 512 stream processors, is equipped with 1GB of TFS storage, and has a core frequency of 1020MHz.
In terms of specific performance, it's a 20% improvement over the previous generation GTst, but its power consumption..."
Speaking of this, Old Huang paused once again, letting them fully fantasize about it, while a look of smugness appeared on his face.
This smug scene instantly sparked infinite imagination among the netizens in the live broadcast room.
"This performance boost is quite significant; it doesn't feel like something Old Huang would do."
"It really doesn't fit Old Huang; you have to know that i was still a bit worse in performance... This time the toothpaste has really been squeezed out with a bang!"
"Looking at Old Huang's expression, it seems the power consumption has also dropped; it's really going to be a hit."
Amidst their cheers, Old Huang revealed the final answer:
"Only 60 watts, no external power supply needed; it can be used just by plugging it into the motherboard."
Meanwhile, many people began to look forward to the price of this card.
After all, for an entry-level graphics card to achieve this energy efficiency ratio is simply a god-tier card for office computer and small chassis users.
The GTX750Ti was upgraded on this basis. First, the stream processors were increased to 640, and it was also only given 1GB of video memory...
The difference between the two is purely a frequency increase, but its power consumption is slightly higher.
It can reach 75W!
The performance can rival the GTX660.
"Are you all satisfied with these two graphics cards?"
After the introduction, Old Huang handed the choice back to the audience off-stage.
"Pretty good, but the GTX750Ti clearly doesn't have as high a price-performance ratio as the 750."
"Hurry up and tell us the price? Stop introducing this useless stuff."
"Hurry up and announce the price!"
Old Huang on stage looked at the enthusiastic audience and hurriedly walked from the edge of the stage back to the center.
Of course, he just wanted to reveal the final price to the audience, not because he was afraid that everyone would throw the dolls in their hands at him...
"Since everyone is so enthusiastic, let's reveal the final prices:
The price of the GTX750 is 999 yuan!
The price of the GTX750ti is 1299 yuan!"
The applause, which had been lively, died down instantly following the announcement of the prices.
This product did indeed bring everyone a surprise and was truly a good product, but this price... compared to the previous generation, it had risen by a full 30%!
So, unsurprisingly, the barrage comments instantly turned sour.
"Damn, Old Huang, you don't have to harvest leeks like this, right?"
"Your Uncle Old Huang has been raising leeks for so many years, it's time to harvest them. After all, he can't harvest from the stock market now... he can only harvest from us."
"But at least leave some leek roots? This is pulling us out by the roots entirely.
Forget it, a ten-year old fan of AMD is here uninvited."
"I really want to support Qualcomm and AMD right now..."
"To the person above, those two can't compete; remember, this is definitely technology Old Huang was hiding."
As for the scene, inadvertently, Old Huang took a few more steps back.
And the audience members who had already prepared in their hearts took the lead:
"Brothers, Old Huang is treating us like leeks to be harvested, let's smash him!"
After saying this, he threw the doll in his hand.
Of course, due to the distance, most people could only hit the edge of the stage.
"This old guy is really crafty; he anticipated our anticipation."
"No wonder, why was he walking further and further in?"
At this moment, some media reporters had already thought of tomorrow's trending list:
#Shocking, a certain product manager, due to malicious price hikes, netizens...#
At this time, Lan Yangyang Assistant smiled. So this was the correct way to use the dolls.
However, he decided not to throw his yet. In case there were more "surprises" later, it wouldn't be too late to use it then.
After the audience at the scene had vented their emotions a little, Old Huang directly turned to the next page.
After all, he understood the audience's thoughts. Don't look at how heated they are right now; once the review videos come out later, every one of them will place an order.
After all, AMD really doesn't have any good products at the same price point.
Just as a few audience members were still sporadically throwing their dolls, a new page densely packed with parameter tables appeared on the screen...
Every line was shocking.
2048 stream processors.
Core base frequency 1126MHz.
4GB TFS storage, 256-bit bus width.
Thermal Design Power (TDP) 165W.
When these luxurious parameters appeared, all the audience members at the scene gasped. This price deserved to rise!
This was the true product where the toothpaste had been squeezed out.
"Compared to the previous generation GTX780 series, the GTX980 series has a comprehensive 62% improvement."
The small parameter comparison instantly won over the gamers on the scene.
They directly turned their guns around; those who had just become 10-year old fans of AMD all jumped back.
"In addition to the performance boost, the power consumption is also 30% lower than the GTX780 series.
That is to say, you use less electricity and get nearly double the performance.
Of course, these are just paper parameters; we still need to look at actual tests. First, let's take a look at Crysis 3."
The audience at the scene was surprised once again. Although this game was released last year, it was called a hardware killer as soon as it hit the market.
Some people ignored the manufacturers' warnings and forced overclocking... although the game image quality improved for a short time, the graphics card burned out in less than half an hour.
So it earned the reputation of being a hardware killer.
Unexpectedly, Old Huang did a comparison directly at the press conference. While they were shocked, the promotional video had already appeared on the big screen.
It can be seen that under the condition of Crysis 3 at 1080p maximum image quality, the previous generation GTX780 could only average 38 FPS, but this time the GTX980 ran directly to 62 FPS.
A solid full frame rate!
"Damn, is this 62%? This improvement is close to 100%, right? It ran at full capacity directly!"
"Rich brother's toy..."
"I don't know if you are satisfied with these results. Now let's take a look at the multiplayer mode of Battlefield 4. Our previous generation could only run at 45 FPS, so what frame rate can this generation's GTX980 stabilize at? Everyone, look at the big screen together!"
