hey Ron we're at silver stones booth now we're looking at an external graphics enclosure there's a couple of these this year but the reason I'm highlighting this one is because we actually showed a Silverstone external GPU enclosure a couple years ago at CES and is back so before getting to that all this content from today is brought to you by Roseville and their new Cullinan case you can read more about that on our site so this thing this time it's a partnership with gigabyte last time it was Asus the one with the Asus never made it to market and that was due to what we sort of hypothesized we're licensing issues with Thunderbolt but that's no longer an issue Intel's on board everyone's on board with the protocol for these external graphics and closures so this one with Silverstone and gigabyte is basically you'd buy the box so you get the alloy enclosure it's all aluminum the bottom is actually empty so it's drilled out in the bottom and the other included item is the power supply so you get a 450 watt 80 plus bronze power supply because this is an on market yet but it will be soon it will actually make it this time if we open it up here which is just done by a simple push button open up the top there's the back of the power supply of course the on/off toggle the two expansion slots for your video cards are one GPU but two expansion slots so those will fit most cards on the market other than some of the mass of 1080s we've seen recently and then two thunderbolt ports in the back as well so that's basically all there is in terms of the actual serious support here and then if we pull off the front panel which is done by pushing that button and just pulling on the panel get rid of that you see the inside there's the power supply and all the cabling is it's not modular because why would it be modular in this and that connects of course to the video card there's a PCB in the back in the bottom it's empty but there's no real airflow in the bottom that's fine because there's a side fan it's a 120 millimeter side intake fan pulls in that way basically goes straight into the video card whether it's a blower fan or a push fan setup and then your power supply also has the fan as expected and that just works as normally it pulls the air in this way and it pushes it out of the top so that's pretty much the whole in terms of thermals and support this does not yet have a name the price is sort of TBB d the estimate is $350 but it's not finally it could change it basically it's going up against things like the razor core the devil back box things like that but this one is with gigabyte and silverstone so that's all for this check links in the description below for more information and other Computex coverage thanks for watching I'll see you all next time
