Unboxing Boxes #26: Unboxing Stuff, Lots of Stuff! Hardware Heaven Edition

2017-05-09
hey guys welcome back to the hardware unboxed for another episode of unboxing boxes where I unbox things from boxes not a lot of mystery as to what's in this box to my right or this box to my left clearly an IRC monitor and a Coolermaster case so the fun's a bit spoil there but anyway it'll be fun to unbox those products and have a look at the product itself these three boxes here no idea what's in them so a bit of excitement there I don't think it's going to be a pair of 1080 TI graphics cards like it was on last week's episode or a pair of rx5 80s so finally set the standard a bit high on that last episode I probably should have spread them out but anyway didn't know what was in them didn't know we're going to get a heap of graphics card and a couple of cool motherboards with that Rison v processor so yeah I don't think we're going to pull anything off like that again but we'll see we have alright let's start with the figure of the three see what we have in here it's a very very heavy box this one so no idea what we have well we have some level hundred Tetris masters working for Coolermaster that's an impressively packed box there they definitely could not have got much more in there this stuff is for a Coolermaster horizon 5 build that I will be doing I've been wanting to do this for a while now and coolermaster have been getting the bits to me as you can see they've done it so we've got the case over there which we'll look at shortly but in here it looks like we've got some fans power supply liquid cooler and some thermal paste that's not necessarily for the bill that was just low on thermal paste I was like hey give me some thermal based and they did alright then we'll paste unboxed will set the biggest item out probably one of the heaviness okay it's what we have here is cooler masters master liquid pro 280 I knew that you ready okay dangerous do not eat noted okay so here we have it the master liquid Pro to 80 as you can see it's a very big radiator designed to take a pair of 140 millimeter fans which we have here and the fans themselves are very impressive I'll get to them in a moment the radiator is very interesting as I it's a square thin design so rather than have sort of the the v-groove fins we have square fins on this radiator it looks looks very neat very cool very different I'll do some close-up brl so you guys can have a look at what I'm talking about before we get to the radiator actually something is really impressive these tubes they're extremely flexible so if you had the radiator say mounted in the top of your case like that this flexes around really easily to go onto you actually I'm showing this the wrong way around yes so as I was saying top of the case and then you can see how easily those pipes just flex so you can sort of have it you know if the CPU the socket was there or there it sort of goes around really easily and they swivel as well the arms here so they swivel quite easily so yeah it shouldn't be too hard to get that pretty much anywhere it's a massive pump assembly here looks very cool I believe inside here we have PE no I think it's fep tubing don't quote me on that I can't remember what it stands for anyway it is I believe a ribbed type of tubing so that's why it flexes so well and doesn't collapse in on itself so that's very cool the RHIB tubing though is a bit ugly it doesn't look particularly good especially for the guys that you know - all the custom builds so they've put the sleeving over it which you can feel the the ribbed tube under it looks a lot nicer I think that 40-millimeter version of this didn't have the sleeving so if you have a look online you'll see the difference or what the tubing looks like that was leaving on anyway I think that looks very neat and tidy and they've just got like the heat shrink at either end now to finish it off which looks fine anyway so much more to say about that right so we have this very industrial looking radiator square radiator looks extremely heavy duty and well reinforced it looks like it's got its baffled so down the middle is basically split down the middle so the hot water would come in this tube here that would be all sort of warmer water cooling as it comes down this side so they go up however many runs there are say 10 of those flat tubes it would go up there comes up the top here and then it comes down there hopefully a lot cooler then goes in this pipe again cools the CPU down and yeah repeat all over again so that's how that works the technical description of how it works anyway so it's did a quick bit of research and the fep tubing last longer than rubber apparently and it has less absorption so see it's also a bit more durable and that's why they've used it and like I said the rib design also means that flex as well so that's very cool then you can get some seriously tight bends out of that without a kinking it's quite incredible really now I'm not even trying there and then it bends back quite well banging that around a bit so apart from that industrial really thick strong looking design as I said it's got square fins rather than the sort of V grooved I suppose you would call them and I think I mean I don't really know but I think the advantage of those is you have more contact points more contact surface area on the flat tubes so it will dissipate heat more efficiently from the tubes into the fins and the fans will blow air through them cools it all down it works better I'm sure and then you know down at the I suppose the business end of it so you've got a nice copper base there it's got a machined out square here which would go on CPU it looks like it'll support pretty much every CPU out there I'd say you've got all the LGA 2011 stuff all the a.m. for staff the mainstream Intel's so plenty of support it's an interesting design this pump so you can see you've got a clear cover showing off sort of the plump the plump the pump housing the mouldings and whatnot and it's split into two chambers so the bottom chamber you've obviously got the fins that would be on the other side of the base the copper fins in there and the water actually comes in the top here and they want the idea is to separate the cool water from the radiator from the hot water helps the pump last longer anyway the cool water goes on the top the pump obviously is doing its thing by sucking it in and then pumping it out it goes through this external tube here into the base goes floods through there cools down the fins in there and comes out here and obviously that's just a continuous cycle quite interesting looks pretty cool anyway normally the blocks and pumps are sort of only a half that height if that so it's a very tall unit but I mean compared to a normal cooler it's still very small just knocked everything over compared to the rate spire for example you can see that the race Spy is still a much taller cooler and this is hardly tall by after-market standards the tower calls and stuff are a lot taller than that anyway impressive looking unit and these fans are really cooler obviously 140 millimeter fans they're translucent semi-transparent and they have that's pretty cool it's like a fan controller switch in the back so if you don't want to control them off your motherboard it looks like you can control the fan speed here not 100% sure on that I'll have to look it up but it looks like it's a fan speed controller and then these these are these basically the mounting points in each corner they're really cool you'll see a lot of fans like the nock to our fans and that they have the rubber sort of washes if you will you know around like sort of like what you see on the top here the stop vibration and stuff like that but these entire arms the entire mounts are made of a really nice rubber soft rubber and they're bolted to the fan through those screws there so they'll be mounting points in there but yeah they look really cool and you're not going to get any vibration through those huge rubber mounts really impressive again I'll hopefully have thrown up some b-roll of these so you guys can get a good look at them a very impressive looking fans all right spent enough time on that well we're looking at fans we month we'll take a look at these I ordered just four of these in total them and these are the master fan pro 120 s seems like that coolermaster the guys in the marketing department got a bit lazy in their life we're just throwing master in front of whatever the product is and then just chuck pro on the end that works pretty well it's a fan so we'll just call it a master fan pro master liquid pro we just looked at some master gel no pro on the end so you can assume there's a better version of this coming that'll be the master job Pro and then our yes that doesn't matter that that's not it yeah anyway master fan Pro 120s air Balance RGB in case you didn't get that is the cooler master master fan Pro 120 air Balance RGB so a short easy to remember catchy name there let's see how the fans are so these are obviously one 120-millimeter fans as it says on the box and you go there's one box another box you have another box so 120-millimeter fans they have the same rubber mount that we saw or similar rubber mounts that we just throw on the 140 millimeter fans so again they're really nice and then on the back here it's interesting this isn't a fan for your controller we've got a little switch on the back and it allows you to set the light in the fan to either red blue or RGB mode so again I'll get some b-roll of that get them all lit up they should look pretty cool and this is obviously a fully transparent blade design and so the LED lights will be no doubt embedded in the center there hopefully I spray out like those fins up and look pretty cool but four of those from my build I think these are worth about so just did a quick bit of research these are $20 u.s. or $25 Australian so that's pretty reasonable but they don't come with the controller like we sort of see off the thermaltake ring plus fans instead these just have an RGB plug there which you could plug into existing RGB controllers or the headers on your soos asrock gigabyte MSI boards that support their new RGB sort of stuff so you know like the aural lighting and all that kind of stuff and then you've obviously got a four pin fan header as well so that's pretty cool obviously if you just want to set them to a red or blue I believe that will be powered off just the fan header and if you have it RGB they might just cycle some sort of default RGB profile off just the fan header but I'll check that at the moment because you're not a hundred percent sure anyway cool-looking fan and not stupidly priced for an RGB fan that seems twenty dollars us seems pretty reasonable and then yeah the master gel just got that because as you guys know I've been doing so much horizon testing swapping processes in and out in and out and I had a whole stack of thermal paste because you're obviously scrape it all off clean the cpoe and the our CPU block the CPU cooler clean everything up or fully reapply and reinstall and every time I change a CPU for whatever reason I do that whole process all over again to make sure that it's all running as it should be so you go through a hell of a lot of thermal paste and baby wipes so I got thermal take the company on the thermal paste and so we've got the master gel low viscosity thermal compound with easy application so that should be cool I'll chew through that pretty quickly I'm off to get some more of them and they've got some grease cleanser so you use to clean up the grease afterwards so that could be interesting to check out yeah this is our reasonably affordable I think it's four dollars us or six dollars Ozzie so pretty good for what's supposed to be premium thermal paste we'll check it out let you guys know how it goes all right I'll give it a rest for the cooler massive stuff for a minute let's have a look at this box here see what we have okay well we do have something pretty cool here it is a graphics card and it is an RX 570 I've been trying to get my hands on one of these just checked out the 580 is you guys know benchmarks the hell out of that so yeah happy to have a 570 or a sprang card that's very cool let's check it out shall we a very cool Oris badge for those of you that didn't see it in the last episode we got this here which I used for that big rx 518 almost forgot the name Erik's 580 versus GTX 1069 gigabits per second so use this card for that comparison and yeah for a mid-range graphics card this thing was really cool actually ran really cool it looks really cool and it is it was a bit pricey for a 5 ad you're hoping the price comes down a little bit it was about $280 us and the MSRP is 230 u.s. so yes it EXCI there and here is its baby brother so it's got more of a traditional looking windfalls cooler but it has the Auris logos and things on leather give it a bit of a touch and then you've got that really nice or ass backplate with the cute little copper insert so that's actually very similar pretty much the same as what you find there I think that's the exact same backplate actually so that's cool take all this stuff off looks like a pretty decent cooler looks like we've got four six millimeter copper heat pipes eight pin PCI Express power input so that's cool and then you standard three display for its HDMI and dual link DVI very cool plastic fan shroud the same as this model here just a bit smaller still got two fans so I believe the gigabyte rx 570 gaming 4G which is the only other rx 570 the gigabyte horas branding offers at the moment so the gigabyte version is a 180 us or 290 ozzie and it's pretty much out of stock everywhere and it's currently available for pre-order in Australia so technically out of stock here as well and the Auris brand card is around 10 to 20 dollars more expensive in either the US or Australia so slight premium for this card does look a bit better it's got a nicer looking cooler I'm not actually sure how much better the cooler is I know you don't get the copper inset on the backplate on the gigabyte card the cool looks a little bit lighter or not quite as beefy but I'm not sure if that's actually true and this model here is clocked just 3% higher out of the box so a slightly higher factory overclock but nothing to get too excited about there just overall a better looking card but whether it's worth the extra 10 or 20 dollars I'm not a hundred percent sure yet off I'll find out and get back to you guys anyway in any case a really cool rx 570 graphics card won't stand on its end maybe this way you go like and get some b-roll shots like that okay before I finish off the cooler massive stuff we'll have a quick look what's in here I think I know what this is all about this box I think I have an idea for something fun fun little goodies in here yes okay so haven't told you guys about this yet you'll actually find out about it probably tomorrow where is it hang on okay so recently tim reviewed the aoc argon AG 25 1 FZ love monitor names I'm glad Tim takes care of all that and it is a 550 WS or $600 astray to forty Hertz competitive gaming on insurance a twenty five inch display it is a TN panel but it's 240 Hertz so you know there's no way around that and it's I believe the most affordable 240 Hertz display on the market right now supports free sync not G stink G stink G sink so anyway as you know Tim has reviewed this all you should know now cuz I just said it Tim's reviewed this monitor already about a week ago on my channel found to be quite good value for what it offers and now I have one why do I have one well I'm giving one away IOC said they would like to do a giveaway with my channel and Brian from tech city and we said well give us each a monitor and we'll give it away so that's what they've done so once in sent to Brian this one has been sent to me and we're going to do a it's going to be a global giveaway all you guys have to do is be subscribed hopefully you're here and you're in the running to win one that's that simple but yeah we'll announce the giveaway tomorrow I'd say on the channels all the details me that we have a gleam io deal so you just go there hit the subscribe button and you're in and yeah so there'll be two of those given away so that's pretty cool like I said I liked it a lot more giveaways on the channel so I'm trying to organize those I want to do another full system build soon and give that away because that was really cool if you haven't seen who won that I've put the links to the announcement video by Thermaltake on the videos for that risin 7 giveaway PC so ago in the US 1 so that's on the way to him hopefully when he gets it he takes some photos or something for us so I can show you guys but yeah that was pretty cool anyway for this giveaway they have included a few extras so you've got a smart a OC polo shirt which you can wear when you're gaming no doubt we've got an AOC bag which you can throw things in we have some IOC pens so there you go some pens yep there right so that's cool three of them and we have a mind you these are the ones that are going to the contestants I'm not throwing around the prizes there will be a separate package from AOC sent out so this is actually all for me to keep to show you guys and they're paying to send out the global ones so yeah it's not me throwing around the prizes from who I was going to win we also have a really cool gigabyte XM 300 Mouse so hopefully that can keep up with your 240 Hertz display be a really cool gaming mouse it's got a polling rate of a thousand Hertz oh there you go four-stage DPI switch charts got Omron switches you can do on-the-fly dpi switching it's RGB of course that can be controlled in the extreme engine software so a very smart Mouse there 6400 dpi so that'll be more than you need I'd say even with this monitor a couple of pens and a cool little Edition that they're throwing is this overwatch pop figurine that's pretty cool I really like that we don't makeup so it looks like there's at least six in the overwatch set so you can get Winston soldier 76 and creeper and a few others tracer so that's really cool have a bit of a look at that actually so there you go if you win the monitor you can sit that under there doesn't want to stand up on the monitor box so it's down my desk okay bad news guys the figurine doesn't stand up at all now we get here we go did it a little bit of bending required possibly want to blue tack that down overwatch pop figurine very cool just spoke to my IOC contact they said they would double my fee if I try on the polo shirt so here we are just kidding I didn't happen okay you might have to clear off actually we look at the power supply than the last two items that's a wrap anyway I've actually said this is the cooler master v6 50 power supply so is their premium gold rated power supply it says new upgrade in the corner must be a new upgraded version I don't know but it has 100% Japanese capacitors a five-year warranty a Silencio fan and a gold eighty plus rated certification so we've got the rubber up black rubberized cables which look fine they're quite neat and tidy they're not obviously not sleeved but yes because the price you pay for this unit they're very good cables so the power supplies $85 us which is really cheap for a quality 650 watt unit or 120 Aussie which is again very cheap in Australia and I think I love about these units is they're really really smart looking I love this sort of embedded aluminium or brushed aluminium sort of grey fire light there and the fan a honeycomb fan shroud that also looks really good with that one hundred and twenty millimeter fans a very compact unit as well 650 watts all that doesn't sound like a lot it's actually a hell what a power you can run these days you can run a lot like you'd run Verizon 7 1800 X overclocks to 44.1 gigahertz no worries with a Titan X P if you want gtx 980ti or no doubt the upcoming Vega GPUs they'll run off there's no problem everything overclocked you have a heap of fans liquid cooling pump the whole lot so 650 watts on a gold rated power supply is a heap of power and there's very very few users or systems that would require any more than that so as you can see fully modular power supply mother characters there and there we have four connectors for basically your 4-pin molex connectors and your SATA power connectors so they're five four rather foot five pin headers then we have four eight pin PCI Express power connectors for GPUs and whatever else might use them and then yeah that's the other motherboard connector there so fully modular these things connect in there you've got a power cord and then the motherboard cables are there that's very cool some details so you have what is it a 54 amp 12 volt rail providing 648 watts so you're going to better hang up quite a few GPUs off that and yeah so then you have kind of like a nice design on the side better show off same on the other side that will obviously be the rear side so you've got your power switch it auto switches between 110 volts to 220 volts so that's good good you can't blow it up yes smart little unit so that will be going in my rising v 1600 X build with all the rest of the cooler master gear okay so as I said before tim has reviewed this you guys have seen all Tim's glorious b-roll of it but I'll take our other package and we'll see what it looks like when you get it so we can experience what the winner will feel like when they get theirs so looks like we've got a USB 3 cable there for a hub power brick manual with a few audio cables a remote for senior citizens as Tim put it 3 pin power cable wall mount kit display cable just drop that on my foot could have been worse got to drop that on my foot there you go 25 inch 240 Hertz monitor looks very cool on the back let's put it together so you're not much I can really say that Tim hasn't already in his review but I will be featuring this in a few upcoming videos shot here in the studio playing some games and stuff I actually really want to test out 240 Hertz gaming for myself because I haven't done that yet I've obviously done a fair bit of 144 Hertz but I want to see what the difference is like in games like overwatch going to 240 Hertz so it should be pretty interesting through our gtx 1080i in there and see how I go that would be cool to take advantage of the free sync so I like to try crossfire RX 5 80s or something like that and see what the difference is like there but anyway that's something to play with very soon now last but certainly not least is that cooler master master case Noah Pro in there make a 5 T so we'll check that out now again that will be being featured or will be featured in the bills shortly on the channel that will unbox the case and have a look that can you still see me set that better maybe there I get the feeling this is a reasonably large case I'll be back in a moment bull crap alright here we go what about breaking you know your case is a bit extreme when it comes with a bit of polystyrene foam like that now that was a shame to throw that out but we will so along with the case and the top you get this nice little tin here very impressive looking tin Wow it's like a little toolbox jeez okay that's impressive cable ties a thing more things probably their table management things more things what's nuts alright didn't scratch it we're fine and another thing so many things here well it's even got a foam cushion on that foam cushion on the bottom that's just that's a premium tin right there suppose when you're paying 210 dollars u.s. or almost $300 stray lien for a case probably warrants a fancy in all right actually before I lose all this stuff I'll put it back in the team all right let's have a look at this beast it's got so many things every time I grab it I pull something off so this has tempered glass panels they look like they're about four mil thick on the front and back or left and right side anyway door panels are tempered glass as you can see here and they both have as nothing on the back or anything like that to remove them so it looks like once you turn the key it just pops off let's find out you guys have one of these or I've seen one I'll probably watch the review will be likely to Steve it's so easy to get the door off but I do not want to read the manual okay the trick is just to pull it genius all right the struggle was real all right one glass panel removed well some graphics card holders they look pretty impressive so we have a lot of stuff in here we have a giant bag of do not eat probably one of the biggest bags I've ever seen that red internal paint work looks phenomenal I kind of wanted to do a black and orange build because the rise in boxes well they're gray and orange but I thought black and orange would be pretty cool since that sort of are in just the rising color more so than the AMD rec hmm so I might respray that stuff orange but it looks so gloom red as well and I told me in the comments should I take all the red stuff out of the case for the build and spray paint Orange and settle these fans in bill to orange or should I just stick with the red hmm the lazy and possibly still awesome looking option would be to leave it all red I kind of want to see a black orange bill because black red bills have sort of been done to death okay so that's a really that's a really cool Schumer's LED light strip nice magnetic base that moves around really easily looks very cool you could put that up the top I suppose or pretty much anywhere where there's a metal surface so you can see through the huge cutout the motherboard here we got the glass panel behind that so the case comes with a pair of what looked like a hundred and forty millimeter fans installed in the front and one in the back loved the rubberized handle on top that's cool if you guys have seen it from the front so that's the front of the case and then this comes away this has got really nice sound deadening throwing in the front of it to help stop any noise from the fans escaping then we've got a nice sort of more traditional looking front grille trying to drop this thing off the desk so it was kind of a cool amounts to show you this time but it was good to unbox all this stuff and I'm very keen to make that Verizon v system which could end up being a bit custom if I decided to paint it and do all that sort of stuff we'll we'll see what happens there yeah funny of cool stuff we've got fans cooler graphics cards Mouse monitor pop figure that won't stand up what else power supply really cool tin I love that tin that'll be repurposed for something yeah good fun unboxing no 1080 T eyes or anything crazy like that but a nice spread of different hardware even though a lot of it was Coolermaster so I hope you guys enjoyed and stay tuned because like I said tomorrow we have that AOC giveaway then I think there's a cool review from Tim coming up then I'll be comparing the risin 5 1400 to the rise and 5 1600 in applications and games because when I did that 1400 versus 1500 X video it became apparent that would be cool to compare them clock for clock and out of the box to the 6 core rise and 5 1600 as well so I will be doing that 1400 versus 1600 and in the week after I might follow up by adding the 1700 as well so you'll get a 14 16 and 17 all tested out of the box and clock for clock in games and application so those should be pretty cool I'm still working on that is the Radeon r9 390 still worth buying I'm testing a HEPA games for that but I'm more than halfway now so that should be in the next week or so and I'm also going to start another segment where I look back at older graphics cards and see how they play games today both demanding ones and not so demanding games or demanding ones especially pretty cool as well I think that covers everything so that's it for this episode of unboxing boxes I'm your host Steve I'll see you again soon guys you
