hey Ron we're at the CyberPower suite now at CES 2018 and they have a sort of interesting set of components here in this build so this is one of their luck species I wanted to call attention to a fan text waterblock in here and also the thermal take case the p90 so the waterblock is particularly interesting this was announced in December and doesn't come out until next month this is an r1 or r2 20 there's also an r1 60 they are glacier blocks they're called and it can be used to more or less passively cool low TDP components so that's the interesting aspect of it before that this video is brought to you by Leon Lee and their 550 X and 330 cases the 550 X is a $180 mid tower case with tempered glass on all panels it's got three RGB LED fans positioned in the front each of which has a metal frame housing and an open interior design if you prefer a cheaper option the 330 is $100 and comes without fans and as what we recommended it most heavily in one of our recent case reviews learn more at the link in the description below looking at it from that perspective the this is a 220 I believe from what I've been told they're rated based on the size and it comes with a bracket so that you can mount it in front of radiators or other fans in the systems for 120 140 and the idea being that you don't need active cooling on the block itself but you could just put it in the way of other airflow that you already have in the case which would obviously help with reducing noise so you don't have as many fans so kind of interesting from that perspective it's lower TDP support only because you are using a much smaller surface area you don't have active cooling built into the device the pumps a bit small although it does support DDC pumps if you wanted to use that and then all of the dissipation takes place on the back side where they have some aluminum fins and in this case they're contacting with mostly the power supply but there are a couple of exposed fins that we can show and b-roll so the air flow going over that is what would handle your dissipation aspect of of the heat sinking and that's done just through other fans in the system as discussed so pretty cool it's it's a bit different the blocks from fantex are priced at I think 94 the smaller 110 for the larger 220 which is what's on here if you're building some kind of low TDP home theater PC that doesn't do much other than play videos you could use something like this and end up with a much quieter configuration overall so I wanted to call attention to that cyber power is using it here in their locked system which is also using the Thermaltake p90 we talked about this when it was first announced we haven't really showed it in person yet I believe it's p90 because it's just a 90 degree Bend we've shown the P the P 3 and the P 5 in the past so it's it's the same idea it is still wall mountable surprisingly despite its mass and it's just a showcase for conventions and things like I mean like we see here today kind of interesting with the these rx SPC chromed tubes which have kind of a neat juxtaposition with the support bars to the glass I know other than that we'll look at more or Thermaltake stuff soon at CES but yeah fantex block block is kind of neat and comes out February 2018 s next month and then if you're interested in the system pre-built itself without doing any other working check-out CyberPower will link them in the description below as well subscribe for more as always you get a patreon.com slash gamers Nexus tops that directly thank you for watching I'll see you all next time you
