hey guys welcome back to harbor unboxed now you may have noticed that Rison has landed I really can't say that with a straight face of course you guys know Verizon is here but anyway the productivity performance as you probably know is stellar it's really better than I was expecting it's first-rate the gaming performance is also very solid there's been some controversy but frank'll 16 thread processor it certainly does enough though we do expect rise and 5 to tackle gaming more head-on anyway this video has nothing to do with the rising controversy nothing about rising gamer performance so no benchmarks nothing like that it's just a fun video and hopefully everyone can relax in the comments section and enjoy it so yeah it is a Rison system build when I was reviewing horizon I was meant to put this together a bit of a teaser to show you show off my rise and test system why I would be using to bring you guys the review but there was a few issues and in the end I didn't have time to get the video out so now it's probably what's almost two weeks late now ok better late than never so what I will be showing you is the main horizon rig that I will be using for benchmarking with the 1800 X so it should be a pretty cool system and since I did build most of it a few weeks ago and I've got a couple of new cool bits in since then I have made a few upgrades to the rig which you will see in the video so a bit of a spoiler this rig is very cool I love it dearly I'm very very proud of it it's been a long time since I could say I was proud of one of my AMD test systems but this thing is the real deal very cool system so I'm keen to show it off to you guys so anyway with that let's get to the build and then I'll discuss the diffused afterwards well what can I say really that's almost too good-looking for a test system it's a bit of a shame I won't have a glass panel on the whole time and I'll be ripping graphics cards in and out the cable management isn't quite as good as it could be because I will be ripping things in and out constantly but yeah probably the best-looking testers - may have yet the cable ache system that Corsair sponsored was also very very impressive looking but I think this one takes the cake I really like it and I think this would be possibly the tenth power unbox test system now I'll have to do a head count after this video be ever-growing family of test systems here at harbor unboxed and I think this is my favorite of them all as cool as Joule Titan XP cards are sli those green glowing geforce logos on the side kind of spoil the aesthetics so I think the MSI gaming X graphics cards look more at home in this system for those of you wondering I have used the asrock fatality X 370 gaming k4 motherboard which currently sells for 150 u.s. or 220 ozzie then we have courses Vengeance LP X 16 gigabytes ddr4 3000 memory kit which sells for 130 u.s. or 160 Aussie I swapped out that knocked to a 120 millimeter a m4 style cooler which you would have seen earlier in the video that sells for 65 u.s. or 90 Australian and I replaced it with the beefy ek xlc predator 240 I'm not actually sure how much the predator costs I couldn't find it on sale at Amazon or Newegg and I did strip off the fans and the controller and a few other bits and pieces off it so that kind of defeated the purpose of playing it not that I did it was supplied but anyway it's an all-in-one solution and with the fans on it and the controller it's a very neat bit of kit the reason I pulled off the fans and all that was because I wanted to use the corsair RGB fans and fit it into the case a bit better which I think I achieved it looks really nice and it fit like a glove also most importantly it does a great job of keeping the rise in 7 1800 X cool even when overclocked overall this is going to be a great test to benchmark with I think you guys will agree and speaking of which I'm very keen to get this video edited upload it and do some benchmarking with this system so I had a lot of fun putting the system together so much fun that I was almost disappointed when I was done I wanted to keep tinkering and build another riser system which is actually good news because I'll be doing exactly that probably starting next week presuming all the bits come in but I have the beginnings of what is going to be probably the coolest rising system I'm going to build in a long time and it will be the system that I'm giving away to one lucky subscriber so I've got this box just arrived this morning from thermaltake and it's the start of some of the bits we need to build that system I'll go through it all in a video shortly once I have all the other bits so yeah this is going to be a really really cool system I can't wait to get stuck into it'll be a custom liquid-cooled hard pipe system so yeah it's going to be exciting and the best bit is I get to give it away and it will be a global competition so any one of you guys watching this video has the chance to win a high end horizon system with all the bells and whistles so with that I'm going to wrap this video up I hope you enjoyed watching me build this beast and you'll be seeing some test results from it shortly I'm your host Steve catch again soon you
