Next Gen PC? Razer Project Christine

2014-01-09
hey guys this is Austin and staying here at CES 2014 at the brazier groove with what I think is always the coolest thing of the show project Christine so as you guys know I've been building pcs for a while and while they're great and we've seen a few advancements especially with smaller pcs but for the most part a PC is a giant tower that's really not changed too much in quite a while however this has maybe not is a totally perfect concept it's very very cool so the way it works is very simple all you do is buy these add-on cards and they will just slide in so the central tower behind me is the full motherboard so it's actually going vertical and everything else just plugs into it with a card so let's say you want to add a graphics card throw it in change your CPU take out the old one put in a new one you need an SSD you want hard drives you want some better sound card all these kind of things are totally customizable so what we did was we integrated liquid cooling into this modular design so that's kind of really cool because we use a central Bay where the cooling liquid is stored and then all the different cartridges have dual self closing valves on them so as soon as you connect them the liquid cooling would actually run through the cartridge itself and then as soon as you disconnect the self sealing valve should just not spill any cooling liquid at all obviously the moly pcs for awhile you know that's not really anything crazy new what is new is the fact that it's absolutely simple could not be easier you just pull it out put it in so they say that you can actually take any car to put in any other slot you'd have like a CPU and graphics card drivers bar and you can swap them around so we'll see how the interconnect is I'm not entirely sure how a CPU and graphics card can be plugged into the same spot and everything is going to work fine but I'll give them the bad out our goal is to introduce this now and then gauge response from our fans and from people who hear about it and if that's if there's enough positive demand for a thing like this we would go into an actual development for a final product which we might see maybe one year or maybe in two years down the road obviously from here to a final product is going to be a long wait a lot of engineering hurdles to be overcome but I think that's always been what Razer is all about and we kind of want to see or want to prove that there's still innovation even in the space as traditional as the desktop PC unfortunately it's just a prototype at the moment so maybe here in a year or two we'll actually be able to have a final version that actually works I'm really excited to take a look and see what project Christi is going to be all about when we have a final version anyway before we get out of here I've got to give a big shout out to Squarespace for powering my CES 2014 coverage Squarespace is the all one platform that makes it fast and easy to create your own professional website or online portfolio it's an awesome way to build yourself a site to encourage your self bloggers pretty much anything else you want and it's super easy to use there are lots of great-looking templates to choose from so you don't need to know code or anything like that it really is simple it starts at just $8 a month however for a free trial and 10% off go to Squarespace calm and use offer code Austin won that's where space calm and offer code Austin won anyway guys thank you so much for watching if you enjoy definitely sure to subscribe to the channel and I will catch you guys next time
