they run we're at gigabytes suite now at CES 2019 and gigabyte has a lot of stuff to show they have a whole wall behind me and then there's a another wall in the other room so we're gonna try and go through almost all the stuff here today but I think the big one to start with is probably going to be the RT X 2060 video cards because they just launched or at least to the press sorry you can't have one yet before that this video is brought to you by thermaltake scorpy three case the core p3 is one of the most unique cases on the market it can serve as an open-air standing chassis a test bench in vertical or horizontal orientation or as a wall mounted showcase pc the core p3 now comes with a 5 millimeter thick tempered glass panel for its side but keeps the front top and back open for air the core p3 versatility as a display piece test bench or standard desktop is reinforced by its price of roughly 110 dollars on Amazon you can learn more at the link in the description below the cards that are on display here couple models so in order of price we don't have firm pricey numbers yet but just in in terms of the stack how they'll line up the 2060 OC follows and gigabytes traditional naming scheme so 2060 OC kind of at the low end we're not clear on if it'll come to the North American market but maybe not and if it doesn't what will come to the North American market is the wind force OC so this is a dual axial cooler design it's pretty straightforward we know it's a different PCB and vrm than previously the PCB measurements are the same but the vrm components are different I just I don't know what exactly those components are today so we're gonna try and find that out for you four separate coverage on what MOSFETs are using what voltage controller all of that stuff so not clear on what that is just yet but it is a dual axial cooler it's got a couple of heat pipes and then a pretty simple heatsink so this is going to be a more affordable option the game you know see is a triple fan design so a triple axial single eight pin on both of these cards following the 2060 spec pretty straightforward there and I mean it's it's just a slightly higher end model it's got a backplate like most the others these days and we'll just have to wait and see what the the vrm component specification is hopefully that will stay in place so that's the game you never see this one I think will interest more people small so this is the Mini ITX OC and you've seen these cards before we use a similar card to this a 1070 model in our Mini ITX test bench and it's I mean it's it's a small card and actually we're just talking with another vendor about how small cards and the 20 series that are also 2 slot pretty hard to find so I think so tax coming out with one but we haven't seen too many just yet and the problem here is that as the GTX 10 series dies and gets phased out you're gonna be left with kind of a gap in coverage of Mini ITX models where people are waiting for ITX models but can't buy attention is because gone and are waiting for the 20 series to come out an ITX so that's the start of that one but that's their video cards we don't have a ton of details on them just yet we already reviewed the 2060 you can check that for performance for the basics of what the silicon can do and then as far as what the cooler can do we'll check back with you later once we can actually test them I'll briefly mention this so there's memory we've showed this we showed this actually at Computex where gigabyte did something kind of interesting they had dummy modules so it's at the time it was a new concept for them and it was you could buy a kid of four if you are OCD about your memory slots and you want all four to be filled and two of them are fake so it just brings down the cost while allowing you to still have the higher capacity for two sticks but fill in all four slots if you are neurotic will say about that kind of thing so all they've shown here that's different from previously thirty-six hundred megahertz kit and a four thousand mega Hertz kit and those are CL roughly nineteen let's see thirty-six hundred eighteen nineteen nineteen for the timings four thousand nineteen twenty twenty and they are hynek's CD memory the biggest challenge of course the memory is the getting on cue balls from other boards gigabyte happens to make a lot of motherboards so it works out there we have not worked with the memory yet but they've been upgraded to higher frequencies if that's something you were interested in but from the looks ID the interesting part I guess is the dummy modules which we showed before let's move on to the tower cooler and the SSD so this one I don't need notes for this this is pretty this is my domain so 163 millimeters tall for the tower cooler so in terms of clearance you miss all the 150 millimeter keys for the the window to board height but you still hit most the other cases that are in the mid tower upper mid tower range in terms of sizing so 163 if you kind of look at it while it's spinning it looks like the fans are facing the same way no it's not a mistake this one is blowing that direction and then that one's just a reverse fan blade design so it's a back swept design you would call it typically so it looks the same from the outside about his back swept so it's pulling air pushing it out the back of the case and this is called the ATC 800 so it's the aorist our cooler I think is what that stands for 800 model again TBD on price don't know yet TBD on availability this one's a bit further out than some of the other products we've looked at like the video cards which are on the immediate horizon for roughly January 15th or something around those around that time based on on video zone release timing but for the cooler it's a little while out it is to 120 millimeter fans it's a RGB and I there is a temp and rpm reader here with a bar so I'm thinking maybe that will progress and show some kind of basically like windows progress complete bar except for temperature and rpm but we don't know just yet so that's the cooler it's a big air cooler below it under the video card is a PCIe SSD these are using a 5 on controller it's the 12 II controller which is pretty new if not brand-new and these will be coming in a 1 terabyte or 512 gigabyte model for the PCIe card the add-in card as opposed to the nvme m dot 2 stick just the stick which will be 512 or 256 gigabytes for capacity but it's the same flies on controller for both so and also it's a pretty heavy-duty shroud and housing with RGB LEDs which is what most people want at this point I suppose although Kyle did tweet a photo about RGB LEDs and we will find that and put it on the screen now I think that covers most the the core stuff here I do want to point out a motherboard will walk back over this way because this was it's not new technically it came out a couple weeks ago but it's a Z 390 a RS extreme water force in terms of BRM and PCB it's literally an aorist extreme it's the same other board which we liked and build Zoid gave it high praise on our channel that's a rainy endorsement from him you got any amount of praise so that's been modified now to have well it's it's a water forced water block so it's just got a pretty much full coverage block here and it's been out for a couple weeks but if you hadn't seen it it does look kind of cool and if you're into open-loop it might be worth looking into I don't know if we'll be testing this one we have a standing offer it's just a matter of is there interest so if there is interest let me know in the comments so that I can I can confirm that and get it in the office for testing and there's one more thing I almost forgot it the monitor so not in this room will have b-roll for this one the gigabyte monitor is new for them this is in gigabytes effort to expand their product line up into other verticals as well and the monitor is called let's get this out of the way first the Eris display 27 QT so a b27 QD is the name which is actually one of the more forgiving monitor names in the market and it's got a couple specs we can give the more important 27 inch IPS 144 Hertz it is 1440p dcpip is 98% freesync as well particularly relevant because nvidia is now actually supporting that although they've renamed it and appropriated the naming for the product the monitor has built-in power so if you don't like power bricks that's a marketing point now I guess is to put it back in the monitor which we actually prefer them the power to be in the monitor not in a brick that sits on the carpet gets hot but it's gotten so far the other direction where they need to be thin that people have forgotten you can put them in the monitor so gigabyte has now done that you can kind of add on some will call them cheating options for games which actually are pretty cool so some of this stuff has been done before some of its more interesting for example counters or timers you can through the software we have footage of this you set a timer so if you know for example an opponent's ability in a MOBA it will refresh every 90 seconds or every five minutes or whatever inset it so that when you hit the hotkey it'll just start an onscreen timer that is done through firmware on the monitor so it should bypass game anti cheat systems I don't care about how you feel about this ethically or in terms of how the game works but it's it's pretty cool otherwise so like I said spend on before and but this combines a whole bunch of stuff in one so timer pops up on the screen you can see exactly when the opponent's ability should recharge and we're cool down other stuff you put a reticle on screen and there's a couple other things in there too like some adaptive noise reduction with a mic built into the monitor that listens to ambient noise cancels it out in your mic noise as it's all a process through the software which is mostly for example for streamers I think that covers most with one millisecond if I didn't say that it's got RGB on the back pivot swivel tilt are all built in and then OSD built into the firmware so games like destiny to can't block it out and HDR 400 so that covers it that's the gigabyte suite at CES 2019 thank you for watching subscribe for more as always go to
