What Expect from Computex 2016

2016-05-21
computex is a week and a half from now and it is one of the year's biggest consumer electronics shows after the Consumer Electronics Show in the US so there were CES and January computex is coming up now and computex isn't much larger for the hardware industry in general will be seen a lot of new components coming out and that's what we're talking about today it's basically what to expect at computex and the answer to that is a few things starting with Intel's new broad well II and the supporting motherboards so broad well eat proper I'm not entirely sure when that will be hitting the market but we do know that the x99 motherboards the refresh will be coming out very soon and that's actually some of them are already beginning to hit production ship and things like that so these x99 motherboards they will work with broad well II they of course work with the older processors in the extreme series as well and primarily it's a bios update to support the new broad well each hip and then there's also a couple of new features on some of them for example you dot to support on the gigabyte boards that we saw at PAX East just recently and that you dot to support is new to these x99 boards it's sort of an emerging standard for SSDs and it will replace theta in some capacity but not entirely so certainly expect x99 boards the next thing would be the AIB partner versions of the GTX 1080 maybe the GTX 1070 but certainly the 1080 the reviews are already out ours are out and the 980 or 1080 hybrid conversion we did is out but the AIB version of that will be coming soon and hopefully with some voltage mods or at least more power supply to the card if not a different be BIOS either way though the AIB versions will have their better coolers so MSI's got the traditional twin frozr that will probably continue on the GTX 1080 series EVGA with their acx cooler gigabytes got their wind force and water fours and things like that so all those will be coming out soon look out for our coverage of those at computex I'm sure we'll be looking at some of it the next thing we receive this information through the interwebs and it's a new CyberPower design for their upcoming PC so you can see that on the screen now but it's basically a weirdly tessellated tower it's a super tower it's got this tessellation on it that has the sort of triangle effect that you're seeing the aesthetic and being a super tower it means it's large so technically from what we understand it can fit 10 optical drives but it will not actually host 10 optical drives it's not sought what they're using the space for my guess is that space will be used for liquids so probably an open-loop reservoir or something like that it's a ton of space for open-loop cooling and it also has 4-way sli support from what we saw in the rear i/o pictures you can see there's clearly support for 4-way SLI that I believe is shipping q 4 2016 and the big thing is the super tower with the sort of tessellated aesthetic so that is what they're starting for that one for a high-end enthusiasts rig the next thing to look out for hopefully a Polaris update so a Pascal of course has been basically fully launched to this point with GP 104 gp100 and the 1070 is coming out with a cut-down I think version of the GP 104 chip and then polaris would be next and that's from AMD so polaris is the proceeds viga which proceeds na'vi and Polaris will not have hbm too but it will probably have gddr5 X and maybe hpm we're not really sure yet though Polaris certainly is going to be shipping some of the mid-range low-end cards from what all the rumors have said and that would be a good place for Andy to enter the market because it means that they don't have to compete directly with NVIDIA with a 1080 so that gives both company some breathing room to sort of solidify their foundation on each part of the market the high end in the mid or low end so that is the AMD stuff we're hoping for it and then lots of new cases so a ton of new computer cases we're talking all the major case manufacturers and pretty much all of them have something new to show us so we're gonna be doing our usual walk through the show floor and will show all that stuff off so that is what to look out for at computex 2016 check this channel throughout the next week because we'll be doing some factory tours as well including a tour of in wins facilities and NZXT keys facilities on the case ID and I believe we might visit some other folks as well so check that out thanks for watching as always patreon like the petrol video I'll see you all next time
