hey guys Eber here with hurricane axe and we stopped by the msi booth at Computex this year and they showcased a few bunch of products so let's kick things off with their motherboards huge thanks to our Computex sponsors for sending us out here shoutout to nvidia fantex and cix and msi meet the x99 a gaming Pro carbon motherboard by the title you can guess that certain parts of the motherboard are covered with a carbon skin it also has a new design with reinforced steel armor on all the RAM slots PCI slots and MDOT two PCIe SSD slots this was mainly done to improve signal strength and stability when preventing electromagnetic signals from traveling to other components the PCI MDOT two slot delivers speeds up to 32 gigabytes per second and there are two slots in this motherboard so you can configure it in a raid zero configuration and in kept those placing fast rates your PCI Express speeds LAN protect is a LAN connector designed to give you the best networking experience while also featuring additional protection and to do so it has a 15-kilowatt anti surge protection to shield your network from lightning strikes brownouts and static electricity a red LED inside the rj45 connector shows its functionality the CPU socket features an additional of twenty thirty six pins versus twenty eleven and this is to improve our clocking especially for intel's extreme edition processors and ddr4 memory we saw this feature about a year ago on msi high-end motherboards but it's starting to become popular on pretty much muslim motherboards now since RGB is the thing these days we're starting to see its purged into the motherboard market and in this case we have the gaming Pro carbon logo that's RGB LED on the side and subtle lighting underneath the V RMS and other areas MSI called the mystic light it features sixteen point seven million colors with 17 different led effects and these can be controlled within the mobile app that's eventually going to be coming out later this year MSI also showcase their z170a titanium and x99 a titanium series of motherboards this is targeted towards enthusiasts and the overclocking market when I held that I was amazed at how strong the board was built seriously this thing is a tank we have a steel backplate at the back of the board and this is perfect for enthusiasts since if you're playing a lot of torque by installing two to four GPUs you need not worry about GPUs sag they also have a ton of connectivity and overclocking options for the GPU as well all right moving on to GPUs we have the GTX 1080 gaming X GPU and gaming Z GPU least look almost similar to one another with both using the new Twin Frozr six cooler and red highlights the heatsink features double ball bearing fans to keep the card relatively silent and heat pipes are directly in contact with the core and compared to the two five cooler on the previous models it's supposed to be 20% cooler and 40% quieter the gaming X comes with a significant factory overclock whereas the gaming set boasts even higher frequencies along with an MSI dragon logo on this backplate and custom LEDs they also displayed the gtx 1070 gaming X video card that featured the same Twin Frozr six cooler similar to the 1080 we will be receiving two versions of this particular card with one featuring RGB and the other without the RGB and so what do you guys think about MSI's new high-end gaming motherboards as well as their GTA X 1080 GPUs let definitely let us know in the comments section down below I knee bar with harbor connects stay tuned for more competition coverage and we'll see you in the next one
