welcome back to harbor unboxed for another episode of unboxing boxes as usual plenty of boxes and packages and things to unbox so without wasting any time let's get into it I'm going to start with this box here because this is a special little box and it comes from a long time Harper unboxed viewer so on the box here we have a cool little sticker that says sky soldier blades now sky soldier blades is owned by Ted who is a as I said a long time Harbor on box viewer Ted seems to enjoy the unboxing boxes series and well more importantly Ted is a paratrooper out of the US Special Operations also US Army Special Operations he's been in for about six years now and that time he's worked with some Aussie Special Forces guys as well so that's pretty cool and in fact it was a member of the Australian Special Forces that introduced Ted to Harbor unbox so that's really cool and I'm honored to have these guys watching the channel yeah it's really blown away when Ted told me that really really cool stuff any spare time Ted founded his own company which is sky soldier blades and as the name suggests they're a bit of a the knife specialists let's say and as such Ted has no doubt been suffering through the unboxing box a series as I struggle to open boxes with my cheap multi-tool that being the case he has generously offered to send me some cool knives for quite some time now so we recently got in contact directly and I gave him my address we discussed a few things and he sent over a box of knives for unboxing boxes so without wasting any more time I think we should open this box and hopefully I will be doing so with my cheap crappy multi-tool for the last time alright let's get into it and see what Ted has sent me very excited to see what's in here I know it's some knives I just don't know what sort of knives and full disclaimer I am NOT a knife expert which is obvious okay that's cool a Velcro a little label that says don't bring a gun to a knife fight very good I like that okay so we have two boxes inside the shipping package and one is for me and one is for Tim we have a large knife apparently in a well what still looks to be a rather than at large knife okay so we've got a neat little pouch here and this is a Medford knife and I'm a knife noob I don't know anything about knives but I believe this is a pretty special knife and you guys who know anything about knives probably sitting there going wow that's a pretty special knife so let's see what we've got here wow this is quite the upgrade yikes okay so I'm gonna have to be careful with this and definitely cut away from myself not like what I was doing with this thing yeah right so apart from the fact that probably shouldn't throw this around too much be careful with it apart from the fact that this is a folding knife from Medford I can't really tell you too much about it which is yeah a bit disappointing head over to Ted's website I'll put a link for this particular knife in the video description I don't know how much it costs but it seems like a very premium knife alright so one of these is for me and one of these is for Tim I pretty much get to decide so we'll see what's in this box here and this one is from buck knives so we'll see what we got neat little pouch fancy looking Wow I feel like I probably have to be more careful with this one that's cool you guys can see the design I'll provide some b-roll but that's impressive it looks really really cool and it's got a little push button here that you push and then the blade folds away and then there's a button there you obviously want your hands clear the blade when you push that because it flies out quite aggressively Wow now the question is which one of these do I use first open the next package well I definitely have to fold them away in between opening boxes and not leave the blade out because I could lose a finger so I just like to give a big thanks to Ted for sending these knives out I now have the difficult decision of picking which one of these I want to keep and which one I will give the Tim because they're both very awesome also for those of you interested I'll be sure to link Ted's website in the video description and yeah just a big thanks for generously supplying these knives to harbor unboxed for Tim and I to use really appreciate it appreciate the heck I even talk really appreciate that these are just awesome and also just finally as a PC enthusiast Ted now also builds performance pcs so if you want a mean gaming rig built by a real-life paratrooper and head over to sky soldier blades calm and they'll sort your way out all right moving on now it's time to test these guys out I've actually got a big package here from PC case key with quite a few things that I want so we'll quickly get into that and then I'll check the other stuff here we have a product box that I'll use the flip out knife first you ready all right whoa no pressure required Wow yes I'll have to be very careful with this thing okay just quickly I got to the Corp III sent over via PC case q from Thermaltake and that is for my personal thread Ripper build there'll be more information on that but at the moment I am using the thread Ripper 1950 X as my main Ruger had been for a while now and loving it but it's about time I did a proper build at the moment it's not really built into anything it's just sitting at the end of my desk on a bit of foam so I'll be using like that for a few months now so I thought it's about time I stopped being lazy and actually did a build so it's going in this but more on that later all right here we go let's the other tape holds up yep doesn't really put up much of a fight with that blade I think Ted Ernie's knives is just making the unboxing experience too easy well we've got a lot of gear in this box here we go lots and lots of really awesome looking sleeve cables priory c7 cable mud stuff we have to pay bit of attention to this I like these blue cables so these are this is an extension kit so you basically use your PSU cables that came with your PSU TAC these guys on the end and these are the parts that will pop out and you'll see in the build and they're nice thick sleeve cables they look great and the combs work really well with these there's a few more combs included so yeah I'm probably going to use these in my thread Ripper built in the Corp III they've also sent along some black and red sleeved cables which will no doubt make their way into a build soon alright let's give this guy a go so we have two boxes of the cable mod Pro Series cable kits how do I open these without destroying the box there we go like that alright so these particular cables are designed to work with Corsair power supplies because I have mostly spare corsair power supplies at the moment and they'll be being used in my next few bills and so these aren't extension cables these replace the cables that came with your PSU so you have nice individually sleeved cables straight from the power supply unit all the way to the motherboard or whatever you're connecting them to yeah they feel extremely high-quality really nice we're very keen to do a build with these I don't have any pricing information or anything like that for you guys but I will provide links to buy these in Australia and the US in the video description and I've got another kit of black cables here so anyway they're gonna be very handy for all math home builds on my building they're gonna have a nice sleeve cable so thank you PC case gear for sending over the cable motor cables and I also got the crier ec7 and that will be for I'm actually gonna try and squeeze that in the in winner Chopin I'm doing a Raven Ridge apu build shortly so we'll see how that goes not sure how it fits but we'll find out I think Brian managed to get one and he's build for the giveaway pcs that we're doing so it probably does fit ok we'll grab will go with this white package next and we will cut it open haha be careful if the products in the packages with those knives and count fingers every time I use it ok we actually have here the Plantronics rig 800 LX so I believe this is their new wireless headset yep 24-hour battery so that would probably mean their Wireless and this is possibly no I think this is four it says Xbox or Leverett but I believe this can work with PC while it obviously works with PC but uh PlayStation all that they've just got the Xbox branding on it anyway let's pop it open out cuttin a finger off and have a look what's inside oh yeah they're very much ovary hold on incredibly well you know I get this off alright so I believe this is Plantronics latest headset and I have no idea what the pricing is it's not available in the US or Australia yet at least any other retailers I checked which was pretty much all of them so pricing information to come if it's available by the time you see this video the link will be in the video description they're extremely comfortable as I said it is a wireless headset so you've got this little box this little box here so this connects via USB to your computer and then wirelessly connects to the headset the headset themselves how they say Plantronics says it has a 24 hour battery it's got a 1500 milliamp battery inside it and as you'd expect it's got a 10 meter range and it takes 30 minutes to charge the battery for 3 hours of use so yeah if it goes flat 30 minutes or get you get you buy for a three hour session so that's not too bad all the controls to control volume Michael that sort of stuff on the headset themselves so you'll have to get pretty familiar with them and know what buttons you're touching like previous versions that use this frame it is a modular frame so you can pop the the cans out and change them that way for sort of the different shape and size heads you've got a nice soft band here that supports really well I'm surprised they don't feel like they grab your head that tight but they are hold on probably as good as any heads that I've ever tried before yeah they're they don't move or wriggle or anything at all even when you throw your head around quite aggressively they they hold on really well I probably look a bit silly doing this one trying to describe how it feels but whatever ah and then also you do have a non removable microphone but that's fine it folds away I kind of like the weight after unplug it or whatever to make it you know get it out of the way so it just falls down nicely put it off to the side here slightly and it should sound quite good so yeah these feel really solid but I'll give them a whirl later and see how they go all right let's aha get into this bag here and see what we got alright the products are down that ends so we're we're safe to give it a go oh hello the new Samsung 860 Pro and 860 Evo SSDs I've been wanting to get my hands on these and it looks like I finally have so they're the 500 gigabyte and 512 gigabyte versions I haven't obviously tested these yet but I've seen a few reviews on them a performance seems to be quite good they are actually very similar in terms of performance except the pro model is significantly more expensive the pro version uses 64 layer 3d mlc v-nand so MLC being key there whereas the Evo version uses the TLC stuff it's still 64 layer 3 DVD and it's just at TLC so the endurance / well the insurance rating is half that of the equivalent size so the 512 gigabyte version whatever the endurance rating is for this I don't actually have it on hand this will be half that so this is basically going to last longer as far as I'm aware though performance is very much the same they both saturate at the asada interface the serial ata six gigabits per second interface and that being the case cuz I think really even the endurance of this model is very good the Evo is probably going to be the model to get and as I said it is significantly more affordable whereas you're paying just a hundred and fifty dollars us and that's for the five hundred gigabyte model so $150 us for the Evo and works out to be about it's two hundred forty dollars Australian this model here is two hundred fifty US and yeah I thought that was a pricing error but it's three hundred and forty five dollars Australian so $100 more for basically the same capacity the same performance you just get better endurance so for the kind of users their target with the 860 it's not like Enterprise or even extreme high and stuff that'll be in 960 pro so this is your more mainstream stuff it is just so tough so I don't really see the point of the pro series of course I haven't tested them reviewed them yet but just on paper and the pricing this makes no sense anyway I won't go on about them too much these are the two and a half inch versions they come in mSATA and m2 2280 form factor so I'll probably do some sort of review on these shortly alright actually I'll put this knife away for a moment and we'll try out the little guy again cool let's go for it gotta be very careful not to plunge too far into the box of these knives cuz I yeah that could end badly all right we've got some paper hello we've got some some Arctic coolers and fans and thermal paste all right so I don't think we featured any Arctic coolers on the harbour unbox channel before I've certainly used their products not recently but I've used them in the past so we have some mx4 thermal compound that will come in a very handy for benchmarking CPUs and we have bionics f1 2015 and we have the summer light that looks like it's a USB fan let's have a quick look at that I think this is a desk fan yet looks like it would be a desk fan so we go a little flexible steel arm here yeah while you guys can see that but I'm gonna leave that there it's blowing some nice cool air on me so that's convenient haha we'll jump into this guy because this is a popular item at the moment the freezer 33 eSports Edition so kind of interesting to put the eSports into it but anyway bat aside this is a really good value really high-quality cooler so as the Box gave away I have the yellow version you can also get it in white green and I believe red so with the highlights there so you can see that boasts it's actually pretty much just the fans that I have the highlight so if you put the white fans on it becomes black white so on the base here we have four direct touch copper heat pipes that would give you pretty good coverage on a Verizon or a coffee like CPU as you can see is a 120 millimeter tower style cooler with a push-pull fan configuration pair of 120 millimeter fans and they are fluid dynamic bearing fans so high quality fans they should our lasts a long time and be reasonably quiet and the heatsink is made up of 49 fins and they're all half a millimeter thick so plenty of fins there and the great thing about this cooler is that out of the box it does support the a m4 platform and all the the Intel platforms there is a custom thread Ripper version as well of this cooler an arctic say it can dissipate up to 320 watts of heat though they recommend only using it with CPUs with TDPS up to 160 which is still pretty extreme so as I said at the start of the unboxing of this cool that is a very popular item it's basically because of the price and it is a high quality cooler as I've just said it's got a pair of high quality fans nice big heatsink its supports all latest platforms and it's only $33 u.s. so certainly one of the better coolers priced under $40 so with they think you just get the little satchel type packet thing or separately you can buy a nice big tube if you plan to do a bit of overclocking install it remove it re see it all that sort of stuff that tubes how much more handy than the satchels these are sort of a one-time-only deal and then just finally before we move on we have some fans right so these bionics f1 $25 free zuv 33 so if you want to match your case fans to the fans on the CPU cooler then you can buy these individually and stick them in your case and for those of you that don't like all the flashy RGB lighting or just LED lighting in general then this will be a breath of fresh air because these don't feature any kind of lights but even so despite the lack of lights it's still a fancy looking fan alright that's pretty much all that will get this out of the way what have we got to three more boxes we use the little guy again and we will get into this big box a MIDI have sent over a thread Ripper 1920 X because I don't have a 1920 X to the moment so I've got one of those now we won't waste any time on that though that's just for benchmarking and we have another package here we have the blue Yeti blackout Edition and this is the USB model ultimate professional USB microphone ok well I've heard plenty about the blue Yeti microphones but I've never actually seen one in the flesh and I have to say it is a big heavy mic but it certainly feels a very high quality the base is steel the frame is steel and then the microphone itself is wrapped in some kind of metal so this USB version of the IDE costs one hundred and thirty dollars u.s. or one hundred and seventy dollars Australian which seems very reasonable for this type of microphone and I have the blackout version the black version it also comes in gray white and silver there are a few dials and knobs and things on the microphone so on the back here we have gain which is quite easily quite easy I should say to move around so that is an analog dial there so you can increase or decrease the gain very easily and then under the gain button we have a button labeled pattern basically that changes the pattern of the microphone how it picks up audio so I don't have the exact pattern information here based on these little icons but I can sort of guess so it's actually quite difficult to turn which is good because you probably don't to accidentally knock that we're using it but you can change it to sort of like a dual broadcast mode by looking at this so it'll pick up sound from the front and back side so you can have a conversation with someone at opposite sides of a table or you can set it up to pick up audio just directly in front of it so this side but yeah there are four different patterns you can choose from in total then on the front side we have volume for monitoring so for your headphone and then a mute button those of you wondering there is also an XLR version of this mic and I actually do want to get my hands on the XLR version because that's probably the one that Tim and I would use for our live stream but this particular version is a USB so it just connects directly up to your computer but anyway yeah I'm shocked by how big this microphone is I've got my rode nt1 up here and it is significantly smaller but anyway keen to give it a go and Tim and I'll use that on the next live stream and you guys can let us know how it sounds I've been trying to get my hands on one of these for a while now excellent this is really going to improve things so as you guys know for a lot of videos I provide gameplay footage I capture gameplay with on-screen statistics and all that kind of stuff and when I have to do it in 1440p or 4k or anything above 1080p basically I have to use real live or shadow play so there is a bit of overhead with that that's not ideal I would rather use some sort of dedicated capture device and well now I can alghero is sent over their 4k 60fps model of what's known as the 4k 60 Pro so this is a PCI Express capture device you put this in your main capturing then you input in the PC you want to capture the footage from and you can then record it from the capture PC so very cool indeed so there's the card itself and you've got your HDMI in and out there and one high quality HDMI cable is included be anyway keen to put that in to my capture system and check it out see how well it works you'll probably see that footage in a video later this week and for those of you wondering it's $390 us or 550 Australian dollars so it is an expensive bit of kit but it also does what most capture devices can't and that is capture 4k footage Andrew so it's 60 FPS so a bit specialized there all right time to check out the last product and this is the deep cool Baron case liquid and I saw this at Computex last year we're not that far of calm protector this year and I'm finally getting my hands on so anyway let's open up and take a look alright so we have the white version of the bearing case liquid and this particular model sells for one hundred and forty dollars u.s. or two hundred and thirty Australian dollars so it does make it a fairly pricey case but it is all metal so that's an important thing to remember there so the whole front panels steel the top panel steel this little sort of almost handle looking device at the top is steel and then this side panel is tempered glass so it is very high-quality you've got a steel panel on the left side or right side depending on how you look at it and one of the very cool features of this case is sort of is suggested by the name it comes with a pre-installed liquid cooling system with a 120 millimeter radiator stuck in the top and it also has a cool flow meter right here and that will be lit up and your better set through the case door when everything's set up but I'll take the door off and talk a little bit more about what's inside the internal design of this case will probably surprise a few of you it is quite a small case and just by looking at it you probably think it supports micro ATX motherboards but you would be wrong it supports full sized ATX boards and it does that through a very unique internal design what we're good very good yeah I am quickly running out of room in here I've thrown stuff everywhere alright so normally in a case you would have the power supply in the basement here the bottom possibly at the top here but in this particular case it is in it neither spot there is a power input at the back here but as you can see there's sort of nowhere to put your power supply that is because the power supply actually goes up in the top here at the front so a bit strange a bit unusual certainly very different but that's how they've managed to put full-size ATX motherboard here it goes right down the bottom and there is no power supply in the bottom you can see the power cable runs around and goes up to the front here and then the power supply goes up in here and you connect it up that way so quite different I don't know how that works haven't built in it yet but I would like to and then to lock the liquid cooler in place they've installed a plastic sort of bracket here so you'd have to remove that put your motherboard in and then you can put the waterblock on top of your CPU and like the white themed case it is a white water block but everything in this case it's pretty much Haji B so the flowmeters RGB the 120 millimeter fan on the 120 millimeter radiator is RGB the liquid cooler is RGB and there are light strips in the front panel here and they're also RGB so loads of RGB options on this case so it'll look pretty spectacular all lit up yeah really unique kind of case I like the fact that it's an all-metal body there's no plastic anywhere and when I saw it at Computex the LED lighting all the effects and all that came together really nicely so yeah I'd like to do a building this some not sure what or when but if we can build something in this case I think that'd be pretty cool let me know what you guys think anyway and well that brings us to the end of another episode of unboxing boxes a lot of cool products this episode really enjoyed using my new knives big thank you to Ted from sky soldier blades these things are just phenomenal I can't wait to play with them a bit more oh yeah really cool knives but now I have the issue of working out which one of these actually want to give to Tim because to be honest I don't want to give a hitter of these two Tim you might have something to say about that but anyway maybe you guys could let me know in the comment section below which one of these knives you would like to see me using for future unboxing boxes episodes maybe Tim and I could swap every now and then I do like the black knife though the fold-out knife very cool anyway I'll leave that to you guys to decide I'm keen to go get my thread Ripper build puts together and I'll probably use these cables because these cable on cables look pretty amazing anyway that's going to do it for this episode of unboxing boxes I'm your host Steve and I'll see you next time
