hey welcome back to harbor unboxed for another episode of unboxing boxes as you can see we've got five boxes here there's two rather large boxes and the large boxes usually deliver some pretty good stuff so fingers crossed actually I'm really hoping my rx 580 is in one of these boxes I've got a couple of our x5 ATS on the way or I've been promised a couple of them and I'm quite late to the party on that one but it's kind of a good thing because usually with the day 1 coverage it's really really rushed out a couple of days to get the content together and I'm sort of starting a shy away from it to be honest with you guys I hope that doesn't make the channel any less relevant but I just really getting over the rushed content that isn't quite as good as what we could do if we had a week or so so with the RX 580 stuff I'm going to take probably about a week from now to get that online for you guys to watch I want to test the RX 580 and a massive probably be something like a 20 minute long video compared to the new gtx 1060 the refresh model with the 9 do you give it to a second memory and at least well over 20 games at least 25 games i'll compare up to resolutions and look at a heap of other stuff as well so very very in-depth review there that should be well worth waiting for and well worth watching that's the hope anyway also I mentioned in a previous video I have set up the patron account now for harbor on box to try and help with the revenue stream now that YouTube sort of fallen apart there with the Adsense and what I've done with that is to give you guys something that's a bit exclusive a bit unique for one dollar a month apart from the livestream content that I am doing with Brian over at X city so that's pretty cool as well but I thought for this rx 580 comparison you guys usually have an opinion on what games you'd like to see included or excluded from the comparison so a few days ago I listed I made a post with all the games the 20 plus games that will that I proposed it should be included and you guys can see which games you want to add or remove or if there's any other sort of requirements you'd like feel free to make a post about it on the patreon page so I'll put a link to that in the description and if you do want to pay a dollar to be part of that per month then feel free to if not then that's fine you don't have to you can just keep watching the high quality content that comes on the channel alright anyway enough of me waffling on I will get into the boxes because you guys are wanting to see what goodies we have this time all right who's this from palace so we're pretty well guaranteed a graphics card here that's not going to be an rx 580 because they're an Nvidia partner so I'm not sure what they've got for us I didn't they didn't start inform me of anything being sent so total surprise ear - do we have some bubble wrap okay this could be good if this could be good indeed and you see what's in there I did not know I was getting one of these with a super jet stream GTX 1080 Ti that's going to put a smile on your face every time it's a good day when you get a gtx 980ti alright it looks like a pallet graphics card so far oh gee the big sucker okay that is a seriously beefy graphics card there are that 1080 models were big don't know if this is any bigger but it's it's mighty big either way check out the thickness of that thing I really like the neutral color scheme they've gone for as you'd expect it has RGB lighting this is at least RGB here I think there's some lighting behind the fans 100% you'll have to plug it in to find out I will be reviewing this of course probably probably next week if not the week after them be no later than the week after I promise yeah that is an impressive looking graphics card it's got a pair of 8-pin connectors but other than that I don't really know too much about the carpet I don't know what the power phase designs like it looks quite impressive from here what seems looks like there's at least 10 phase 10 phases but we'll find out for the official review anyway I didn't like I said I wasn't expecting this card at the total surprise very very nice surprise I have to say anyway I'll stop admiring the card and I'll uh move on to the next thing but we'll look at that again in detail shortly let's go through since we've had a very exciting unboxing they'll go through this little package from Logitech could be a mouse hard to say we'll find out it's not going to be a gtx 980ti i can assure you that okay we have a little box inside ah the Yui wonder boom Yui is a Logitech brand and they make some very very cool Bluetooth speakers we've seen quite a few of their speakers on the channel over the years they've all been very good and they're actually all still in use I've given most of them to various family members and they're really enjoying them well it's like a hand grenade dispar doing very cool speaker I know why they call it their pint-sized speaker now yeah the usual it'll come in a heap of range of different colors but I love the material I use on this because that's very cool with the rubber and stuff as well and this is ipx7 I think ipx7 Raiders that means it's up to one meter it can be submerged up to a meet up to something like thirty minutes without failing so that's very cool and it also floats off you have it on a boat or something and you drop it over the side it isn't going to sink to the bottom of the ocean you can just scoop it up off the surface so that's kind of cool on the back here USB port presumably for charging it up obviously you've got your power volume up and down pairing button probably the power on button as well but there's another button here as well so maybe that's the pairing button maybe that's just a power button we'll find out in a minute we asked a very very cool little speaker they claimed up to ten hours of run time per charge that's very cool and another really impressive feature is a hundred-foot wireless Bluetooth range so you can take your phone or whatever device you're streaming music from quite far from the speaker without it cutting out that's cool okay what's got some battery charge found the speakers straightaway my note for actually hoping to replace my note four very soon I've got a Galaxy s8 plus on the Laois hoping it would get here today but it hasn't alright so anyway it's connected let's try some music well that's really cool I like how the the audio is really 360-degree it comes out from all angles a matter where you position yourself around the speaker it sounds exactly the same which is quite impressive I don't know how the speaks are again tatted within the thinner unit but amazing 360 degree yeah that vert eise's 360 degree audio and it very much is actually I'll check how much this thing sell so it was very impressive okay so for the quality of this speaker I think the price is very reasonable to 100 US or 160 Aussie which seems a bit pricey for a smallish Bluetooth speaker but the audio is very loud I love the 360 degree sort of audio sound ah and it's got a 10-hour battery which it's advertised to have that variable and good range so I've looked at the UE roll the boom a few other ones and they've all been fantastic like I said they've been heavily used by various family members and they love them so very cool speaker don't know I'll probably won't do a dedicated review on this but I'll report back in a few months and let you guys know how it's going probably do a few submersion tests and things like that yeah very cool I love it alright next on the menu let's check out this the biggest box we've got here hmm okay so we've got a heap of anti-static bags wow that's a lot of anti-static bags okay okay so we got some as rock stuff as rock have just kind of this box yet with anything they could get their hands on so we have some some old brochures for their extreme 172 100 series boards so they're no longer relevant but this is very very relevant uh-huh so cool all right because rock a be 350 gaming K for you guys have been begging me for be 350 reviews and what I think I might do I've got that a Seuss prime board I've got the gigabyte gaming 3 board I've now got this if I get my hands on an MSI board in the next week I reckon it's probably time to do a four-way be fit be 350 rather board around up that could be very cool and that'll answer the questions that you guys have been asking me non-stop to be 350 content something that's in the works I might even do a dedicated review for this board as well um but yeah whatever let's have a quick look at it shall we who are nearly knocked that Titan sorry that that GTX 1080i card off the desk alright wow that's a really nice-looking board actually I'll get some b-roll of it so you guys can see some close-up shots of it yeah very cool looking board it's very it's much more I think how would you say tasteful than the assuit and gigabyte boards well they look quite fine they're also black and red themed there's sort of a bit crazy with the PCB there's a lines and things going every which will probably appeal for some but this is a bit more neutral a bit more bit more tasteful in my opinion just a few red highlights here in there which really set it off and it's interesting to note that it does have a pair of em two slots which is very rare for a be 350 board and a guess I would say the secondary slot here if you use that probably this secondary PCI Express slot looks like it's wide so for damnit that would get eliminated disabled so yeah I would say if you use both of the m2 slots only the primary PCIe x 16 slot will be active and that's got like MSI's steel armor stuff but obviously it's not msi shocks they are all sort of doing that now and I suppose if you're going to chuck something like this in there um you'd want that extra support because that will Bend that slot quite easily obviously to be supported by the case here but still you can see how massive that graphics card is and it has to weigh it's easily over a kilo and way anyway oh um check that out it's really high quality looking be 350 board here it looks like we've got those 633 looks like it's a nine phase power delivery system on this one and we have the real tech eight nine - so must be a the ALC eight nine to codec so that's probably got the cinema three creative cinema three support as well so that'll be a really good audio solution I can see that it's on an isolated section of the PCB so it's probably got all the usual sort of sound purity stuff that asrock offer I like how these solder slots SATA ports rather although there's only four of them they are intended really nice and neat not like at all individual so that will make cable management really good of course you have its extra two here which will be connected to a third-party controller of some description it's probably under this heat sink here you'll have to wait for the review before you get those details and plenty of connectivity around at the i/o panel you've got a pair of legacy USB twos a couple of USB 3s USB 3.1 type C anything missing from he will probably be a display port but I imagine pretty much all you guys will be using a discreet graphics card anyway yeah very very nice looking board actually I'm not going to wait for the review to tell you guys I'm quite keen to see how much this boards work ok well that's pretty impressive the board is only swap selling right now on Newegg for 105 US and it's available in quite a few different outlets in Australia for one hundred and fifty five dollars Ozzie that's a really good price for what looks to be quite a high-end be 350 motherboard actually I was so excited by that be 350 board I forgot there's another board in the box which is interesting because this is a very very good board I not to be a very good board because I got it about six weeks ago the X 370 gaming k4 actually I'm not sure I do have this board the X 370 gaming I think the gaming k4 is the well I feel is we've got five gigabit ethernet so that's pretty awesome and I'll be back in one moment alright I'm back now I can't even keep track of all the boards I have so X 370 gaming k4 that's the board I opened and shown on the channel before Rison was even released and I was going to commit this board to a build very soon so anyway let's just see what we have here okay well I definitely don't have this board and my other board definitely doesn't come with a pre-installed rise in the CPU so that's a nice little bonus 1600 X chip well I thank you very much as Rach well I didn't think anything was going to top that be 350 board but this you certainly have what an awesome looking board wow this is probably the most extreme I am for motherboard I've seen yet it looks like there's a 16 sized vrm on this board so well and yeah obviously the usual retail boards won't come with a 1600 X on there but that's pretty cool well it looks like this board really does have all the bells and whistles which is nice to see for an am 4 board it's good to see we've got all the sort of same features you'd expect to find on like I said 270 board for example so we've got the dual PCIe x 16 slots so the second one is only wide for 8 x which makes sense we've got the Sound Blaster cinema 3 audio which has again all the bells and whistles that you'll find on the Intel equivalents pair of ultra and while one ultra em to another m2 slot what do we got here we've got 10 SATA ports oh that's plenty there we've got a pair of two USB 3.0 headers fair bit of connectivity here nice to see that five Gigabit Ethernet port there I really hope very soon hopefully this year we get some good networking gear for that sort of stuff so some five gigabit switches at a reasonable price not holding my breath but that would be cool so yeah an almost spare time I'll probably have to put together a review of this board also so we're gonna fit that in but yeah thank you very much as rock keen to check it out well this has been an eventful unboxing series so far we've seen already a lot of very cool products when I go for the yellow one or the brown one let's get this yellow one out of the way here we go Oh hahaha yes finally an RX 580 graphics card my work can now begin so this is the sapphire Nitro+ Edition again I know nothing about this product have no idea this actual particular model was coming but let's let's have a bit of a look at it okay so it looks a lot like the other nitro cards I've seen in the past whoa okay it's got a fairly in-your-face backplate though and it is very very heavy for a card of sort of this size there are they look thicker than eight millimeter those heat pipes but there are at least eight millimeter anyway it was two really big heat pipes it looks like a pair of six millimeter heat pipes in the bottom check out that backplate though so it's a silver gray and black design what events and things cut out of it looks extremely aggressive yes that's really nice plenty of connectivity around the backside so it looks like we've got a pair of HDMI is pair of display ports and a dual link DVI output as well obviously a pair of 100 millimeter fans which will do a good job of key that heatsink cool and it really is a massive heatsink on this card it's really impressive I can't believe how heavy it is for such a small card it's actually not that much lighter than this thing and you see this they're actually they're not that different in terms of size this one's clearly bigger but it's not that much bigger it's not that much heavier for a 1080i so I expect this card to run a really nice and cool looks like this sapphire logo here or branding will light up probably RGB possibly the same for the fans not sure but I'm very keen to plug that in and have a go do they talk about clock speeds anywhere not on the box I'll have to do a bit of research on that and not not short the clock speeds up but it's obviously an overclocked model so you can expect that sapphire has squeezed a little bit more out of the card at factoring and you'll probably add a squeeze a little bit more at yourself yeah very excited to chuck this in a test system and get testing shortly all right that leaves us with one box it's a very heavy box so hopefully it has some good stuff for us we've already done very well out of this episode though so not sure I can top what we've already received okay well maybe it will now we're talking and you or ass brand rx 580 so we have not won our X 580 but now finally I have to so I can do some crossfire testing if I wanted to that's cool well oh oh okay brace yourselves you ready that's did it uh damn I was not expecting either of these cards I had no idea gigabyte sent these I've been asking for one of these for so long so many guys have got their hands on that Brian from tech CD got his before me and he's been gloating ever since and I've been dying to get my hands I want it's such an awesome looking card and I have one awesome well I'll probably be prioritizing the reviews for this card while I'm testing and rx5 84 that big comparison but yeah I'm not going to end it there let's take a look at these cards I can't help myself I do want to go wrap this up and get benchmarking but I can't not show you guys these cards if you've made it this far in the video you deserve to see them wowie oh that's so cute look it's got a little copper insert that's actually a really cool looking card they've used plastic for the fan shroud rather than the thin aluminium which I don't actually mind it's probably a little bit more durable and the element in the aluminum seems to bend quite easily when you push it whereas the plastic just pops back does the same job really get all this stuff off it yeah I'll give you guys a good look at the card but that that's really nice that card don't think it's as heavy nowhere near as heavy as the Sapphire card but having said that the cooling looks very substantial anyway and it looks like there's at least there's at least four copper heat pipes that run the length of the card multiple heat sinks in there hello you guys can see that here's the Sapphire model for comparison so I can pick them both up so it sort of similar size the Sapphire definitely seems a bit more weighty so I have to check them on the scale and see but the gigabyte card looks like it's about three centimeters longer you can see that the cooler overhangs the PCB by about four centimeters or so and it's got that yeah that cute little copper insert there which doesn't do a whole lot I don't think it's kind of thermal pad on the back of it but yeah it'll make sure there's no heat trapped on the back side of the PCB behind the GPU I'm not sure if you get by to making any bold claims with this model but it looks cool anyway very cool indeed and then there'll be some RGB lighting here you got your fans stop there and looks like this cymbal lighting here as well which is cool but you usually only get that on the higher-end models so yeah very nice i RX 580 card there now time for this guy well the box itself is very heavy so I'm sure the card inside is also very heavy he's indeed very heavy check that out that is a serious graphics card so it looks very much like the 1080 horas card that I looked at probably that a month or so ago now probably bit longer than actually six weeks ago checked out the horas 1080 extreme edition and this is the 1080 TI extreme edition so other than the upgraded memory and GPU I'd say the card is pretty much the same product which is a good thing to the other card is probably one of the best Tenet's I'd seen and you start that massive copper insert in the back which if anything just looks really really cool in my opinion looks really nice in your case like that you've got some LED lights glowing across so that makes very very cool effect which I did show in that review and yeah as I mentioned Brian got this before me the bugger and he was blown away by said it was much faster than the founded Edition card ran cooler overclocked better had more Headroom in the power targets and stuff like that and just all around a very awesome kind I think the premiums too steep either I think we're only paying I think it's about 50 us moreover the cheapest 1080s which used like the reference cooler so for $50 us when you're already spending 700 that's not too bad considering what you get in this card and these are actually both very heavy here's a bit of a technical analysis the gigabyte card might be slightly heavier but they're both well over a kilo I can tell you that much I guess somewhere like 1300 to 1400 grams somewhere around there enough fitted tip the one and a half kilos but yeah very very heavy graphics cards indeed and they will put your PCI Express slot to the test well I almost wasn't going to do this episode today I was just going to open these boxes and get on with the rx 580 testing but I'm glad I did because there was some very very cool hardware inside plenty of graphics cards it's probably the best unboxing in terms of what I've received I've done on the channel ever so some very cool motherboards from azurite plus that bonus Rison 5 cpu which I will be using in a build so thank you very much as rock for that greatly appreciated and yeah plenty of very cool graphics cards I can't believe to any day you get a pair of 1080 T eyes it's probably a pretty good day you're doing well there of course the only downside to all this is I have a heap of work to do now I already have a lot of work now I have a lot more but it all will be fun and hopefully you guys enjoy the content I'll throw up a poll you guys can let me know which one of these two rx 580 cards you think I should use in that comparison probably leaning towards the gigabyte card at this point but I will test both of them and see if there is any actual difference in terms of performance I will be testing out of the box cards so factory overclocked cards against a factory overclocked card so I think the 1060 I'll be getting I think is the MSI gaming X plus model but that hasn't arrived yet so not entirely sure what new 1060 model I'll be getting the old one of course was the EVGA for the win I think I'm probably going to leave it at that I don't know how long this episodes go on for at this point but it feels like I've been doing this for the better half of half a day at this point so that's it for this episode hope you guys enjoyed all the very cool hardware but we've got to unbox I very much enjoyed it very excited about it all and can't wait to get testing so I'm your host Steve see you next time guys
