CES 2015 is made possible by award-winning fantex our trusted memory partner Corsair and NCIX halo around Dmitri with Haruka dachshund welcome to our CES 2015 coverage here today we are at Kingston and hyperx behind me is a pretty sweet system built inside the England s frame it's one solid piece of aluminum that's been shaped up and but we're not here to talk about that we're here to talk about this little guy or this many guys so this is kingston hyperx predator ddr4 this is world's first 64 gigabyte kit 64 gigabytes of ddr4 running natively at XMP profiles of 3000 megahertz speed 3000 megahertz is insanely fast and we are told that they are the first in the world to actually release a 64 gigabyte kids so kudos to hyperx very cool dims all black and very nice heatsink and we got the that X on the front there very cool this is a very sexy system there you got 64 gigabytes in ddr4 I don't know what else to say okay so another thing that Kingston or hyper x is releasing new this year is the HyperX cloud to now we've reviewed the cloud one originally and we loved it it's a very nice construction it's co-developed with q pads so they certainly know what they're doing it's a very popular headset and the cloud hyperx has been receiving a lot of praise from the gaming community based on its comfort that's very well built and it's got a great microphone you know it's very light it's got great isolations got so many additional accessories that come with it so you can actually replace the leather pads with pleather pads and Orville or pads actually and all this stuff but so the cloud 2 is a little bit different because they're adding now a USB dongle now you guys know how I feel about USB dongles and you know the common perception with USB audio is that it's usually poor but I mean they're running a demo here as you can see there they have some music we also listen to some gameplay and some there's some interesting things here so this is there's a built-in DAC there's still do audio converter audio comes through the USB the audio is being converted through the DAC inside this little machine well the body here and there's plenty of control so you can adjust your volume for the headphone and microphone which is great and you can also enable 7.1 surround sound now 7.1 surround sound usually for me isn't you know my topic the type of sounding experience that I do for gaming as I like to play with open style headphones but they actually manage to do it very well is it doesn't open the sound stage too much so you don't lose the detail but the sound stage does enlarge a little bit you get also a better sense of the direction of if something is coming exactly right behind you here so you do get that very good 7.1 surround sound which I'm very impressed with and so also another thing is that it will come in two colors as you can see we have the the red and the grey and it will be released at $99 price tag so all the original accessories as they cloud one but the cloud two will be priced the same way as before now included with this USB dongle so outside the cloud to Kingston and hyperx also announced some pretty decent drives the first was the savage line of SSDs in the past Kingston has gone to help with this sandforce controller but this time around they've chosen the fisa s10 controller that seems to be very common among new SSD releases at CES the net result is the best speeds produced for hyperx out of a SATA SSD when they reported 560 reads and 540 rights however the big story was the MDOT to prairie the drive the trend to use PCI Express bandwidth has continued here the predator will come in a few different flavors from 240 gigabytes up to 9 60 gigabytes using the newest marvel controller this tiny beast is able to produce up to 1400 reads megabytes per second and 1000 megabytes per second in rights so for more CES 2015 coverage and potential reviews and overviews of these products stay tuned to both Harbor Canucks calm and subscribe to our channel for more similar content
