you're heartbroken noxious 2014 coverage is brought to you by and say XCOM technology connect ok guys so the asus suite here at CES 2014 not only has some pretty kick-ass graphics cards and some awesome audio solutions but they also have some pretty innovative ideas for their motherboard line so starting off over here just because of the new apu that AMD just launched Kaveri they're showing off their new 8888 x-pro motherboard so it features a one clues or 1-click boost button so you can overclock even none of black edition AP use but some of the really cool things that we want to show you moving over here is actually this little port right here it's the SATA Express port now this is going to be the new future standard of SATA interface that's going to feature speeds up to a thousand megabits per second so it's a lot faster than the current state of three ports and it also has backwards compatibility using an adapter they are also showing off here the new asus thunderbolt ii x2 which is an expansion card for those motherboards that do not feature thunderbolt now there is a limitation because only some boards will be supported and they need to have i don't know if you can see it but you need to have this thunderbolt header and only certain boards currently have the certification through intel but what I can tell you is that it is a pretty cool option because they featured here is that you can actually daisy chain you are let's say GPU to thunderbolt to have thunderbolt out so it's a really cool option that you could actually force the display through thunderbolt especially because we're going to see a lot more displays probably in the future featuring this type of technology as well they have something else that they wanted to show off today too which was this right here and just to show the power of thunderbolt and what you could possibly do in the future with it they have rated to raider SSD drives together using the thunderbolt technology which get some actual incredible numbers if we take a look at the disk benchmark as well as where we're seeing here on the screen is that read and rights are incredibly high and we've seen up to a thousand megabits per second so performance through thunderbolt is really really really strong another really cool technology that asus is showing off today in their suite is NFC Express so this is a piece of technology that will allow you to connect it basically to your PC or it's your phone or anything that has a USB port or USB 3 port and basically will allow you to control a certain application or it will allow you to launch an application or even sign in to your PC just by tapping your phone so this is basically one side of everything that Asus does and we featured quite a few of their new jaw-dropping technologies in the release video when we had there when we covered their press conference now you've seen pretty much what they have available to us on the component side as well guys just in case you haven't seen it you can go on to the asus website they also have launched a brand new 8 an AC router that has four antennas which actually increases the wireless performance and they have quite a few other little tidbits that you can see in our press conference coverage now guys thank you for taking a look at our video here at the asus booth what I'd like you to do is like the video if you liked it dislike it if you disliked it but i don't think that i need you're going to end up disliking it and make sure that you subscribe for more of our hard hitting kickass CES 2014 coverage
