 With its factory tuning and data center DNA, an Intel 730 series SSD is an amazing choice for gamers and performance enthusiasts. With its Pitcairn core featuring a 256-bit memory bus, 1024 stream processors, 2 gigs of DDR5 memory, and a 900 to 925 megahertz clock speed depending on boost levels, the R7-265 is actually more closely related to the R9-270 than to the R7-260X. I might have already known this if I paid attention to the lessons on number rounding in elementary school, but even if I had, it's not like we covered how rounding works when the number also contains a letter anyway. At any rate, the card is closer in specs to a 270 and closer in price to a 260X, so that means our Sapphire Dual X card should be a very solid option from a price to performance standpoint. Of course, we've got support for all the usual AMD features, including easy iFINITY with no required display port adapters, Crossfire with up to two graphics cards working together, DirectX 11 now with a future upgrade to DirectX 12 compatibility, Powertune technology that keeps your power consumption down and optimizes your performance, AMD's Mantle technology, and finally excellent OpenCL performance. Like most non-reference cards, the real secret sauce here is the Dual X cooler. This dual-slot design is one that we've actually seen before and it proved in our testing and overclocking to be both cool and quiet. It features two thick heat pipes directly over top of the GPU core that each carry heat out to one of the two 80mm fans. And to aid both VRM cooling and card rigidity, its power delivery area heatsink is directly attached to the cooler for the GPU core. A nice touch. But of course, me telling you how great it is isn't as good as me handing the video over to Luke to tell you exactly how it's stacked up in our testing. So without further adieu, I will bid you adieu. Alright guys, this card performed pretty much exactly as expected. For the overclockers out there, I recommend using AMD Overdrive and inside of AMD Overdrive, you'll probably get about these settings. So you're going to increase your power limit by about 20%. Move your core clock to 150 and memory to 1500. That's an improvement on your core clock of 125 and it's also an improvement on your memory of 100, which is pretty solid and again, quite as expected. Performance is at about the same story. So we're sitting right in between a 260 and a 270 leaning more on the 270 side of things. And again, that's as expected as it's a lot closer to 270. But it's pretty impressive. We knew this was coming, but it's a solid card. Are you still using this? I mean, okay, I looked it up. A razor is for removing hair from your face. This is going to remove your face from the hair. I mean, how long have you had this thing? For longer than I've known you. Okay, well that explains why they kept trying to give you change on that last trip that we were on. I'm kind of filming right now. Yeah and I know that I scripted this whole thing. Well that makes sense because I'm now using my new razor from the Dollar Shave Club clip that you actually gave me and it's working quite well. That's not even the line, but the point is yes, I did give you that razor and I'm glad you mentioned that. Speaking of Dollar Shave Club, it's the fast, eww, inexpensive way to save time and save money. See what I did there? Fast and inexpensive way to save time and save money. I mean, that's a redundancy. With Dollar Shave Club for only a few bucks a month, you can have top quality razor blades delivered right to your door. I mean this process. Looks much more efficient than driving down to the store waiting 18 minutes for an employee to unlock the razor cartridge for you than driving back home to remove hair from your face, head, buttocks, or any other equally manly part of your body. Speaking of manly, there is nothing unmanly about smelling nice so you should check out their shave butter while you're at it. It softens the hairs for easy shaving and goes on clear so you can see what you're doing. Thank you. And if your face is going to smell nice, you might as well make sure your butt doesn't stink too. One Wipe Charlie's are peppermint scented pre-moistened butt wipes for me. I mean men. I think the line is men. It doesn't matter anyway.
