what's going on guys welcome back to the channel today is very special because we are checking out a brand new product from AMD actually a couple new products from AMD this is their new line of ap use advanced processor units which means that it is a CPU with a built in graphic solution actually we're using rx biga graphics here which is very exciting that that means we're gonna have some low powered but pretty powerful at the same time chips that don't need a discrete GPU to run 3d applications like your favorite video games for example of course it's not gonna be quite as powerful as a discrete graphics solution but these are much more cost effective and we're gonna take a closer look at them next week when the embargo for benchmarks actually lifts today the embargo is lifting just for the unboxing so we're gonna do an unboxing because we can not necessarily because we should it's just just an unboxing but we'll get to talk about the skis that are in here the different products and what they're made of in just a moment here I guess we could just sort of fire it off I'm gonna we've got some multicam setups going on today so you've got a top-down camera there let's go ahead and rip the velcro felt right now I got a level with you guys I've actually already kind of unboxed this because I've already started my testing testing is underway for this guy so guys apologies in advance if you see some of the packages have already been opened first off we've got some nice artwork rising powers right Radeon rains you prevail and it's showing us the two schemes that are included in this package we've got a risin 5 for 2400 G and an AMD risin 320 200 G we'll talk about the specs on those in just a moment this is again showing you that we've got risin so we've got a Zen architecture here 14 nanometer FinFET process with Vega graphics built right in now this is not to be mistaken for rise and second generation these are still rising first gen chips however we are getting some some some nice features that aren't found on 1st gen rising that launched last year so for starters this is what we've got and let's let's start with start with this this is a motherboard the Gigabyte motherboard actually I'm gonna move this aside this is the a be 350 n gaming Wi-Fi let's take a look at the board really quick you know I think that they made an effort to to package it in here let's take a look clearly I've already unbought this this is actually the board that I used for my testing for the benchmark video you see next week it will be featuring this board it's a lovely board lovely little mini ITX guy it's black and red so hopefully that's that's a color scheme that you're into but we've got a Wi-Fi module it does have Wi-Fi which i think is very important for most mini ITX boards there's an m dot two slot on the back which I do appreciate so I mean really you can get a pretty darn small case to fit everything inside here with that m dot two slot and having the graphic solution built right onto the chip you could actually have a pretty tiny little system whether it be an HT PC or light powered gaming rig does have a full eight pin CPU connector that's good looks like you might be able to do some some decent overclocking here looks like we've got one two three four five six MOSFETs there's a little heatsink over that and four SATA ports four SATA 6g parts a little light on the fan connectors we've got one two fan headers where's the second one second fan header right there could have could have used it a couple more fan headers there but what can you do rear i/o again we got the Wi-Fi which is lovely and six USB 3.0 ports no type-c or anything like that no type-c on the on the main mainboard either to DIMM slots and a full size by sixteen PCIe slots so you can use these CPUs in tandem with the discrete GPU if you want to and we'll talk a little bit about the possibilities there later on but very nice motherboard but moving on here we have a lot more to unbox secondly memory the Flair ex-girl Flair ex clerics is known for having extreme solid guaranteed compatibility with the am4 platform this is especially useful and important when the platform first launched last year because there weren't a lot of memory kits that were validated to work at the rated speeds but g-scale brought it home with the Flair X this is a 16 gigabyte kit kats latency 14 and 34 1.35 bolts and we are rocking the 3200 megahertz frequency that is lovely lovely I actually memory is not cheap these days so I'm glad sometimes the manufacturers included with their packages and then we have a USB stick these aren't quite in high demand but you 2.0 AMD branded USB stick I'm not sure if there are drivers on it I don't think so I think it's probably just blank so I don't know I can do a naked bootable disk or something like that later and then we've got the good stuff our main event horizon 320 200 G and 2400 G horizon 5 I'm gonna I'm gonna unbox the Rison 320 200 G first because I actually haven't unboxed it yet you can see that I've already broken the seal on the 2400 G this is the one that I have tested so far and I can't say anything else about that but stay tuned for actual benchmark oh I keep saying that I need a razor I'll be right back I am so unprepared for this unboxing I don't even have a razor what am i doing I am a professional it's okay and do I even do I even own a razor where did the razor go I have a saw okay we're gonna use we're gonna use Chris's student ID I will make sure not to show them your picture even though you look perfectly fine and we're gonna open it oh wow but just slice right through there thank you very much Chris fun fact you can open CPU boxes with credit cards and your student ID multi-tool that's technically a multi-tool all right so let's open up this guy so Rison 320 200 G all right we've got a fork or four thread part here so no SMT again this is retailing I don't know if I mention this $99 us very attractive price point for 4 cores and 4 threads a basin boost clock of 3.5 and 3.7 gigahertz respectively as far as cash goes we have 2 megabytes of l2 cache and 4 megabytes of l3 cache and as far as the graphics solution the 2200 G is fitted with Radeon Vega 8 graphics and 8 also indicates the number of GPU cores we have 8 GPU cores on this guy on this little guy there he is the IHS looks pretty much identical to first generation chips that are already available alrighty and additionally we've got a clock speed a graphics frequency of 1100 megahertz and another thing is that we have an included Wraith stealth I think this is the stone I'll put an annotation if I'm wrong it's confusing but this is the little one a little guy will race stealth here he's adorable and looks exactly the same as the existing units that shipped with other select Verizon CPUs this is not the one with the RGB ring and it's a very important thing to point out for some of you I does have a nice black braided cable for Pete for pin pwm connector at the end and pre-applied thermal paste so you can choose to use that for wipe it off and use your own up to you but the other thing this also brings up a good point is that this as well as the risin 5 we're about to look at have a 65 watt TDP so very power efficient and they're not gonna really expel much heat which means something like this is gonna do just a fine job at cooling it the other great thing about these ap use is that they're fully unlocked the multiplier is fully unlocked and you can actually overclock both the CPU and GPU portions of these units which is fantastic you can do that within Rison master the rising master software from AMD i'm pretty sure you could also overclock the CPU side straight from the UEFI like you would a traditional processor and that's the Rison 320 200 G this is gonna be really great for 4 HT pcs where gaming might not be a central focus because the the graphic solution on here is not quite as powerful as the one found in the Rison 520 400 G which retails for 169 US dollars so I'm gonna go ahead and open up this guy and I've placed the CPU back inside of the box to simulate a authentic and pure unboxing I don't really need to check out the race fire again and honestly it's kind of a moot point to show the CPU here because it looks exactly the same as the one we just looked at but let's talk about this one what do you get for seventy more dollars over the horizon 320 200 G well for starters you still have the same four cores but now we've got SMT so we're getting eight threads which means this is gonna do a finer job at multi-threaded tasks perhaps games that can leverage multiple course and maybe a bit of light encoding as well so for course eight threads higher clock speeds out of the box as well with a bass and boost clock of 3.6 and 3.9 gigahertz respectively and we've also got again 65 watt TDP the graphic solution is probably the thing that's going to sell a lot of people on this as well is that we're moving up from 8 to 11 GPU cores so this is using Vega 11 graphics and with that you also get a higher clock speed on the graphics core at twelve hundred and fifty megahertz and again these are these are overclockable figures guys we can push this even further AMD was showing us some pretty impressive numbers at their press event few weeks back during CES and that's it that's the chip I mean so I mean you know pairing that with a board like the one we have here you can have a pretty compact little system they didn't say they didn't say we couldn't mount the CPU into the socket the embargo does not specify that CPU mounting was was illegal so guys finally for the very first time we're gonna be able to start using the video outputs on these am4 motherboards all of us reviewers kind of already knew that AMD was gonna release ap use for this platform because when the am4 boards first launched we saw you know hdmi and displayport outs and since there's no integrated graphics solution on the first generation chips that launched last year we all kind of figured okay they've clearly got some plans to make some AP use and here they are finally ready for launch it'll be interesting come review day to see just how capable these processors are first off for starters I really want to see the difference in graphical performance between the horizon 3 and Rison 5 chips here and secondly with GPU prices so high right now people are gonna consider buying these as a temporary stopgap for for gaming purposes mostly I would imagine until GPU prices come back down but are these things gonna be able to handle any sort of gaming experience at an adequate and enjoyable level in the first place you guys will just have to wait for my review and many others coming soon and yeah very exciting stuff I love APU I love small form-factor mini ITX builds as most of you guys know so rest assured we will be doing some major testing with these some overclocking with these and definitely some builds as well so stay tuned for all that guys that's gonna pretty much wrap it up that's all I can really say AMD will cut me off there so guys if you enjoyed this video toss me a like on it I do appreciate it and it does help me a lot let me know what you think of these ap use in the comments below what your expectations are what you think of the price points again ninety nine dollars and one hundred and sixty nine dollars for the rising three and five chips respectively and that is pretty much a wrap for now guys so I think you might very little to have that so thank you very much for watching have a good one and I'll see you guys in the next video
