Nvidia at Computex: What We Heard on "Super", New G-Sync Monitors, Beast Creator Laptops

2019-05-27
firstly big thank you to msf for making it possible for tumour myself to attend Computex 2019 please check out their latest AMD x5 70 motherboards made for gamers and creators by the link in the video description also thank you to Corsair for their support please check all their exciting products out via the link in the video description welcome back to hardware unboxed we're here at Computex 2019 I've just been to the Nvidia event so like AMD this morning in video hosted an event in the afternoon and well gotta say not too much was shown off at the event the main thing that you guys will be interested in was the super teaser that they posted on the NVIDIA GeForce Twitter feed I think was on YouTube as well I think a lot of people at the event were expecting Nvidia to detail what super meant but unfortunately no mention of super at Computex whatsoever in fact we were heard at the event that that is primarily going to be an e3 reveal so if you're expecting that teaser to be resolved here at Computex like we were yeah unfortunately the event which wasn't live streamed yeah really didn't cover it super at all and you'll have to wait for III for more details on what that brings unfortunately also didn't manage to get in any information on what super actually meant either so yes still up in the air on that one unfortunately alright so moving into the things that Nvidia did actually announced at their event and we'll start with g-sync I think because for me at least being a monitor sort of guy that was probably the most interesting stuff so firstly the 34 40 by 1440 g-sync ultimate display so the HDR ones with I believe 200 Hertz refresh rates I did ask about where they're still 200 Hertz and got a bit of a vague response on that one so we'll have to find out more on the show floor but those monitors are now ready so the models from a soos Acer and AOC should all be coming out very shortly they were announced more than a year ago so it has been quite some time since we first saw these products but in video tells us that those are ready to go more exciting than that mini LED g-sync ultimate monitors so we've got two models coming out one of them is the asou speed g27 uqx that has a 576 zone backlight made up of 2304 LED lights so much more impressive than the 384 zone LED backlight for the original PG 27 UQ there's also an ASA model coming out both of these should be on the show floor so hopefully we'll get some more information on that when the show floor opens tomorrow but for now mini LED g-sync HL monitors so that's really taking the g-sync HDR thing up another notch and finally on the monitors 4k 120 hertz laptop displays which was a bit of a surprise I was talking to Jared from Jared's tech you might know him go subscribe he make some really high quality laptop videos but we were both a bit surprised about the 4k 120 Hertz on laptops because we don't find 4k displays on laptops to be too useful than to be very small the GPUs they really can't run a 4k resolution very well and won't really benefit from the high resolution but I suspect it might be more of a creative thing on that one we also have new r-tx games the first one is quake 2 you might have seen I think it was the fan mod that some guy made and they brought ray-tracing into quake 2 well that's now being turned into an official game it'll be made free on June 6 you'll be able to get some single-player levels for free I think and then the full game will be available ray-traced for owners who you're already own quake 2 on the same day as well they'll be available on Steam and that is a partnership with Bethesda who makes that game the other game Wolfenstein Youngblood that is now got our TX functionality in it as well as adaptive write shading that's coming out on July 26 so again more r-tx games and as well buyers will get that game buyers of nvidia gpus i should say from the artex between 60 through to the RT x 20 ATT i will get that game for free when you make a purchase starting tomorrow or one of the days we see it on the screen now I've got some b-roll of that that will give you all that information the final thing that in video showed at the event was a whole bunch of Creator related stuff falling under their new Nvidia studio brand now to be honest probably not the most exciting thing for you guys for mostly gamers and interested in the GeForce brands didn't really interest me too much either but there were lots of demos there some of them work on interesting so maybe with raps and b-roll of that but the main thing here is there will be 17 new invidious studio laptops launching here at Computex from all the major brands you know your aces yeah a soos msi gigabyte all those companies I think Razer as well they have new laptops starting at 1600 US dollars the key feature they're up to Quadro r-tx 5000 quadratics 5000 GPUs the key thing here that really brings to the laptop form factor for the first time is a 16 gigabyte frame buffer so with the r-tx GPUs like your 20 80s previously up to 8 gig but for creators who need that extra frame buffer you will get up to 16 gig with those new Quadro cards you also will expect things like 32 gig of ram your Intel Core i 9 CPUs the 8 core models also the 6 core core i7s will be all throughout these creative range slim and light models that was one of the the main features that in the video was going through as my screen goes black here yeah so lots of slim and light designs that really meant for creators working on things like Photoshop on premiere on 3d modeling all of that was discussed and NVIDIA made a big deal about how much faster their new Quadra laptops with the Intel CPUs are compared to the MacBook Pro which uses AMD graphics but then they mentioned AMD at the show but that was kind of the comparison they were making there in video studio drivers as well that will be coming as sort of I think they said a quarterly release so the aim there is that you get really stable drivers that are focused on optimizing you know for your creator apps like your photo shops your premiere so I was just talking about before rather than relying on the gaming drivers that tend not to be not players nicely with some of those creator apps so I think NVIDIA has had created drivers for a little while now but they will be folding into this new studio brand so those are really all the things that every year showed off at their Computex 2019 keynote nothing on super as I mentioned earlier that will be coming in 8th at e3 few things on g-sync a few things on our TX games and all that creative stuff so yeah probably not as exciting is the AMD content that Steve covered earlier today certainly a lot more was talked about at that keynote but similar to I guess last year where NVIDIA doesn't really use computer as one of their main sort of presentations for new products they tend to stick to launching GPUs and other products at their own events so wasn't too surprising that they sort of kept a lot of that information out and we'll see that later in the year so that's really it for this video thanks to our major sponsors MSI and course Ava managed to bring us over for Computex 2019 will be hitting the show for tomorrow where you'll start to see everything there so plenty of stuff coming up throughout this week on Computex don't forget to subscribe to catch all that content consider supporting us on patreon and I'll catch you in the next one
