hey when we're at the Thermaltake booth now I can't be taxed 2019 and Thoreau will take we're gonna start with this which is district plates they seem like they've been kind of hot last couple months but the manufacturers have been catching up to the interest and thermal tanks along the leading edge with we saw one from fan tax as well so we talked about district plates we've got a level twenty HT massive aquarium type case to look at and then a secret project they'll be looking at in here somewhere which is going to be a combined aao or CLC if you prefer pulling the CPU and the memory so that'll be a bit unique we'll look at that in this video as well before that this video is brought to you by Corsair as an iron claw RGB wireless gaming mouse the corsair iron claw focuses first on comfort with its palm grip approach and also uses a sub 1 millisecond wireless connection for the PC you can toggle between Wireless and Bluetooth connectivity making it easy to control multiple pcs with one mouse like a stream and PC and a gaming PC the mouse has 10 programmable buttons the pmw 30 391 18,000 DPI sensor 3 zone RGB LEDs and fifty million click lifespan for left and right mouse buttons learn more at the link in the description below the sort of the district plate snow since we're already here so a distro plate or a distribution plate is used for water cooling systems likely a lot of you saw them for the first time when we looked at the Lian leo Levin dynamic but at the time it wasn't an actual product you could buy it was just like a for show only fancy build and it was a plate that ek made and then ek made that plate but only available to people who bought a full system from them so they've been difficult to get but have grown in popularity over the last year so district plates been around a while it's not like it's a brand new thing but they're finally becoming like more retail mainstream options for the year or for towards the end of the year anyway these are looking at potentially an August launch prices are TBD don't know our price yet the DB 200 is the larger one DP one hundreds of smaller one they have a couple of hookups each so on this one there's two quarter inch fitting hookups under the pump the pumps mounted to the to the acrylic block and then on the other side of it there's just a fill on a drain if you want those the larger ones got the same format right now or it's got two sort of inputs on this side of the system we'll have b-roll of and then on the back there's the the fill and drain as well so what Thermaltake needs to hear from you is if you're interested in this type of solution like a distro plate what do you want to see changed on it because it's at a point right now where if you make a suggestion or a request you might actually be able to to get your feedback heard by thermal things so there's like there's an opportunity here to pass some feedback along and it's the same for all these companies have this show a lot of them are prototypes but anyway ultimately there's a couple things you can do with the district late that are unique and a lot of them are going to have to do with like do they fit in the different cases or how many holes do they have is it like the fans x1 where you feed it like six different tubes and then you kind of distribute the the flow changes a bit the pressure changes but it looks kind of cool but it's got more compatibility it's a really difficult market to get into this what solves a lot of that by just being literally a case sort of I mean you can mount the motherboard a power supply and everything else to it it doesn't have like glass although they were talking about the option of a glass panel in front of it let them know if you want something like a p5 style panel in front but yeah it's just a big giant basically mounting plate with water flow through it I think that's all we know about the DP 200 it might be called DV 200 plus but you have Front has to poorest train and fill in the back and then there's a PCB LED strip on the top and the bottom and it's a PCB not not just like flimsy strips so that might get like a diffuser in the future they're not sure yeah they're still finalizing stuff one plug hookup up here for power and I think that covers the db2 on a DB 100 is the smaller one it's a three sixty millimeter radiator size so it should be standard 360 rad compatible which is good because the district plates do have issues with compatibility a lot of time about 360 if your case fits a 360 as long as you're good on the the thickness of it then it should fit and still no price on this one maybe August for the launch it's a DD C pump which is also on the larger one and this one has as mentioned that the same count of holes available one thing that they're all take is a little concerned about is people stripping out the holes so a solution to that is like an aluminum plate on the flat the the backward so you got the black plate here that does give you more screw holes that aren't acrylic so should be a bit more reusable but you've got the aesthetic potential downside so that's another area where you can provide feedback on what you think of it you know would you rather just trust yourself to not strip the holes and get rid of the plate or do you want it to be more guaranteed future proof for for multiple uses another PCB strip on the top with LEDs and then that pretty much covers it so the next thing we're looking at is this this is a hundred percent prototype it is not ready for market doesn't even have a name so let's just start there when companies show prototypes like this that shows it's always nice because we do get to see some cool stuff that is either really early in the process might not make it to market or might make its market like a year or something so let's let's walk through it and see what they've done so far what I recognize is a flow cooler so thermal tanks got like the flow 360 line there's a flow 360 or a modified one anyway and flow the flow series is made by a stack it's used to be a gentle four point five pump for example it's a higher rpm pump but what's actually interesting here is that the tubes are running from the rad into the pump itself and as you would expect them then cut so this one would be the return line so it's cut it goes into the memory so it's an AI o or a CLC for the CPU and for the RAM which is interesting and feeds into the water Ram thing that Thermaltake was talking about at CES earlier this year so anyway yeah cuts into the ram there's a block on top of it the heat sinks are in theory or the plan is to sell the heat sinks with the block and then you can mount it to your own kit if you want right now it's the thermaltake branded memory so it's 32 gigabytes in here thirty-two hundred megahertz at present there was a test running earlier we have b-roll of where the temperatures were like in the 30s or so degrees Celsius for the memory but anyway water runs through it's got just micro fins or fins sticking up into the block into the channels those three goes back to the reindeer pretty simple but interesting now being honest of course memory really doesn't need a whole lot of cooling so this is going to be another one of those things where it's like it's different and maybe you want it because it's kind of interesting because when we run memory out like say two vaults for example 4000 megahertz it's typically fine on just air but I guess it'll depend on you know how it ends up looking at the end of the day because I guess you can do RGB LEDs on like a kit of memory that doesn't have a heatsink to begin with and then you still get the LEDs with a bit of cost savings on the heatsink side that you end up making up for when you buy the cooler it's a very interesting prototype and I'm curious to see like how this is all cleaned up when it's done because you could do some pretty cool stuff with a single kit as we've kind of seen with like the mono blocks and stuff to be a bit different design you could do some cool stuff with it right now that was just complete prototype phase last thing in this room is going to be over here I don't have a lot of details on these right now so we're just gonna run through them and get back to the other stuff but there's three sets of cases the one all the way over is the most interesting looking aluminum box and in the middle we have a mesh panel with 200 millimeter RGB fan there's a mesh panel on the front here there's open on the top with fig dust filters actually this is a really wide case that's kind of nice so there's the kind of stuff that we like to see from Thermaltake and it's always hidden away in the side room know why but this the CES had similar stuff where it was like budget targeted cases and a lot of the time the budget targeted cases in the market are garbage and then you get stuff like budget targeted cases where they actually do mash fronts which is pretty rare so I really want to see the stuff in the main area but yeah there's more of that we'll have we don't even have names right now so we'll talk about this more probably when it comes out and we review it so here's the level 20 HT it's a giant cube and this is pretty interesting kind of calls back to a few of the previous Thermaltake designs that we've shown at other shows but it is the level 20 design like aesthetic or trope right now which is what this is this is actually removable at present it's a plastic piece so if you wanted to do some case modding we don't know what the final color will be it might be white but you can take it out and paint it yourself if you wanted to as for the case itself though so giant box it's compartmentalized the main compartment for the components is a tee actually ATX compatible there's it looks like an ATX board in there right now and then 360 right on the bottom there's a 360 right on the side might be able to go larger on this but we're not gonna we're not gonna say just yet because I would need to try it the case isn't final but it's pretty close the launch dates looking like probably September pricing probably $190 for the rest of the case though on the back side there's a filter with a set of holes for two 140 s or 120 s there might be some changes to the bottom on the the mesh like cutouts it just kind of depends on where they're gonna take how much time they have to make changes but ultimately we're kind of talked about this at the booth this is a water cooling case for the most part you can brute force the cooling with water so you do have to look a bit at how it's marketed versus you know how its intended to be used and in this case it's marketed as watery point case it's intended to be used as a water cooling case so level twenty HT the top can lift off the i/o for the motherboard so keyboard/mouse all that stuff will route out the top here where there's a channel for the cabling and the glass on top lifts up pretty easily so that's separable from the top panel and then there's another routing hole in the back for the power supply power sploit could also move to a different location but right now it's route it to the power cable coming out the back thermal tank will probably include USB extension cables with this because it is a bit of a longer run but that should cover the level twenty HT I think it's mostly a visual case so will show a lot of b-roll that'll be it for this one thank you for watching subscribe for more as always go to patreon.com/scishow Nexus to house that directly or
