hey Ron this is steve from gamers nexus dotnet and once again pax east 2013 we are at the last day now this is the final hours of pax east I'm here with Mark honeck Director of Product Marketing for PNY and he has some pretty crazy new GPU video card cooling technology that he wants to show us today mark what can you tell us about your new cooling stuff so what we looked at is you know some really exciting technology in the past so we ventured out and we were the first company to integrate a fully enclosed liquid-cooled system into our gtx 680 680 product line so as you can see here this is kind of the first example of that this was an all-in-one fully enclosed liquid-cooled system this allowed for basically the CPU to basically stay very very cool running a very high clock rates without really having to do any work and maintaining the quality of the product but what we've done now is we looked at this approach and saw the market and said you know what if we came out with a modular version that would enable all of our customers to basically go out there and and scale to do SLI capability to add varying radiators to tie in CPU coolers and also bridge in the GPU together all in one unit so now I want to share with you the exciting developments that we've done so what we looked at was some server technology that really helped us to bridge this gap and this is the quick disconnect system from our partner a stack and we decided to go with them and implement this into a consumer level product so what that allows us to create now is instead of shipping a fully enclosed unit with the radiator included we're now able to provide basically quick disconnects running directly out of the graphics card itself what this allows us to do is then offer the ability to create modular capabilities so you could choose between a small radiator or a larger radiator adding and bridging in sli into this configuration and tying in your CPU cooler as well so how this works is very simple all of the liquid is contained within this individual modular segment as soon as the connections made that creates the bridge to pass the cooling across the board no air bubbles are pushed across when the connections made and it's really really easy let me show you how so all I do is I basically take this end here and I plug it in I make the turn and boom it's connected do the same thing over here and boom it's connected fully enclosed fully capable so what this allows is now a very very simple very rare reliable DIY modular liquid-cooled setup that's fully scalable fully customizable and it even allows you to daisy-chain a number of different radiators in case you wanted to increase your configuration so let me show you how that works real quick so basically here what you can see is I just make the simple disconnect here and then now i can take basically this version add another radiator if i wanted to just plug it in turn it snap it and do the same thing again and turn it and snap it and now I've got two radiators bridged in to the same card now what you can imagine is we've also got modular components as well that will allow to bring three graphics cards together and in a triple SLI configuration and then also bridging in CPU coolers also with the quick disconnect system so now you have the capability to make a fully enclosed liquid-cooled system without all the hassle the reliability and the issues that come with custom water blocked arrangements so we feel really really excited about this technology and are going to be bringing this to the market in the very very near future so another key advantage here is as we go forward the Kepler GPU architecture it has a limitation innately of 50 degrees Celsius in terms of GPU boost and maximum performance gangs what this system does is it works together with the existing shroud cooler fan to basically provide a lower 50 degrees environment running at least 1,250 megahertz clock rate so this will allow you to basically take this an overclocked to significantly higher than any other card out on the market today very cool any ETA on this so what we're looking at here is probably right around the third quarter of this year so it would be about the July timeframe we're just finalizing our profiles finishing our qualifications and then we'll be bringing this out to market sounds great what do we have over here for memory so over here what I'm feature his p.m. wise accelerate brand of memory modules so what we have here is our gold series are black series and in our red series so our gold series product features basically industry standard clock rates or slightly above it so five percent incremental OC our Black Series typically will be a ten percent OC series and our read which uses a very very high grade aluminum heat spreader for extreme heat dissipation is targeted around the ten to fifteen percent OC range as you can see here and I'm sure you can play with it as well you can see it's a very very robust aluminum heat spreader solution and we have the unique thin design here as well which allows for great thermal dissipation within the system when running a very high clock rates all of these support X and V profiles standard and today we can clock it up to 24 hundred megahertz per second very cool what else do you have here and also what we have is our SSD product portfolio so I'd like to highlight today that here we're featuring our accelerate consumer brand of SSDs we have two models our standard accelerate which runs at 500 megabytes per second read sequential four hundred fifty megabytes per second sequential write with 60,000 I ops out of the box we then have our accelerate pro product which uses 3k flash perform program array cycles runs up to five hundred fifty megabytes per second sequential read with 520 megabytes per second sequential write with 85,000 I ops well we don't have here today is our basically our flagship product which is our prevail elite this is actually the highest life time you get out of any drive on the SSD market today we actually took enterprise-grade flash using the most expensive server drives and brought that into our into our line and done it at a very very aggressive price point what 10k performance or our program erase cycles gets you is more than three times the life of any drive out on the market today so that means you could write the full capacity of that drive every day and have it last for five to seven years that's that's a pretty long time that's do you who's your target market for that drive so what we're looking there is anybody who's doing very very heavy video use you know lots of heavy editing video editing and then also all the way up to our server class customers as well so anyone who's really doing lots of right usage using especially as a secondary drive or doing lots of heavy raid especially raid 0 it's an awesome drive for raid 0 that's some pretty impressive product so far for the video cards especially I am really excited about the modularity for the new GTX 60 rees cards here and thanks got marked for showing us all these great products we will see you guys next time peace
