my coverage of Computex 2018 is sponsored by EVGA EVGA offers a wide range of products including GPUs cases power supplies motherboards and more to learn how to take your rig to the next level head to EVGA calm a little bit humid today not too bad it rained last night though and yes let's go see what we can find today all right so this is the inception project right here this is what it looks like when you get a whole bunch of experts in modders together to basically see what kind of a PC display they can make specifically for Computex so bass you basically each one of these is kind of like a different platform different GPUs different CPUs all water-cooled I believe it's one massive loop controlling all of it you can see at the bottom all the rows of pumps there yeah this is basically a bunch of modders came together they built this in a month just one month the entire display you can see the wall everything it's on just to kind of showcase you know what Computex is all about extreme pcs both new tech old tech and this is just sort of a collaborative effort to show what they can come up with and there you go so I'm a pretty firm believer that the AI OS that are available outside of the US are so much better than what's available inside the u.s. because of the ASA tech patent so this is actually an ID cooling a IO you can see out here you've got much better fittings that are on the radiators sleeve tubing the block and pump design just look better this is an example of what can happen we don't have a patent just sort of destroying an industry as far as I'm concerned so if you live outside of the US ID cooling is definitely an option and this is me this leaving right here is sort of like a carbon sort of a clip color but of course they support all your major sockets and you know thread river and am for Intel and 360 cooling 360 rads you can see they've also got it plumbed into a Poseidon right here and so this is an expandable unit and just yeah obviously you can see what happens when there's no ASA tech involved all right so here's a mod that we're taking a look at here this is over at the gamer storm booth this is based off of one of the stellar cases which believe is a deep cool case but this one as you can see is more of a stormtrooper sort of a theme I kind of teased it a little bit yesterday in my intro but check this out so they've kind of cut open the top here so that you can see down inside of it and it's got this very I'm a sort of an Imperial look I've also got a distribution plate built in you can see this right here so this is a distribution plate and then down here where the main components are you can see you got your CPU block you've got your it's a narrow cool fan controller right there and yeah this is this is pretty neat great nothing too crazy but definitely a very clean look but of course completely topped off with the Stormtrooper on top this is just another example of what you can do with a quad stellar this one's called Project crater again a lot of milling done to this a lot of cutting to kind of show you what's you know capable of just opening this up typically the quad stellar just has a lot of compartmentalization part mentalization where each compartment basically has different components in it usually power supply motherboard graphics card IO but as you can see in this case fully water-cooled we've got another AC so we'll get to a C's Poseidon cards in there and we've got a horizontally mounted reservoir right on top so this is the Silverstone LD o 3 and as you can see this kind of has a very vertical sort of a cube design and it's tempered glass on all sides it's got a ventilation on the top so it looks like with the top cover and the front panel off so it's definitely a successor to like the FTO 3 this seems like it'd be a lot easier to build in for me though a little bit extra a little bit more space but once you take all the side panels off you can get to all sides it's definitely a lot easier but yeah it's obviously got a little bit of heritage there with that particular case here we've got an 8k mod building one of the Kate's labs SMA 8 revision 2 cases so obviously you can see you've got your LED fans your LED mid plate I know it comes with a lit mid plate normally I don't know if it's an add-on anyway it's RGB is available but you can see that it's got the glass side the glass front over here we've got oh I'm just going to show you his name because I don't want to absolutely mutilate it for you but if you look this right here is based on the Coolermaster see 700 P and we've got a lot of obviously fabrication work done on the front got a completely custom internal here with an ITX motherboard fully water-cooled with bits power parts and looks like we also got some RGB memory going on right here so this is a sleek-looking build this over here is a safe disc and panda pc so we've got a whole bunch of their hexagonal reservoirs that are kind of daisy chained together here to make a real cool sort of a distribution block and open chassis so this is a completely custom built by ice freeze you can see a massive reservoir that has a venturi effect that's I've you know on purpose normally you want to avoid victories but that one's on purpose you can see it's in this all glass reflective glass box and then here are all the components on the inside very different obviously but this is just some of what they're showcasing over here at the bits power booth at Computex okay so I'm over here at the inner max booth right now and they're showing kind of a basically it's a liters per hour demonstration of their pump versus kind of a typical AIO maybe something like an ASA Tech and so they're saying 450 litres per hour with the EF one pump versus a typical 65 litre per hour or they're going to show right here is just a head-to-head demonstration between both pumps and you can see how quickly their pump is actually you know moving the fluid versus a standard a IO so as you can see the ef-1 pumps definitely moving more fluid it's identical setup - it's important to note same tubing diameters same exact reservoir same exact tubing lengths so you can see it's definitely moving more fluid this right here is probably one of the largest cases I've personally seen any long time to give you a reference that right there in the mid plane that's a 360 red and that's laying horizontally 480 obviously in the bottom another 480 on the top probably one of the largest cases I've seen let's see if I can find anything for reference oh I don't know that's why I give you a pretty good idea all right so this is the in whimsy tower this is actually based off of a mod there's two of them here there's a silver one back there as you can see this looks an awful lot like an art piece as you can see this is a computer chassis don't make any mistakes about it it obviously gets a huge crowd of people coming and looking at it because it is just so different in wind is really known for just trying to one-up themselves all the time because I mean we've seen some crazy Chas he's come for them right the D frame the S frame the H frame and every single year they find a way to just make it bigger and badder and crazier now availability on this they're telling me they they might have three available in q3 no idea what the total quantity is going to be but the estimated price is looking like it's gonna be somewhere around five thousand dollars now obviously all of that is subject to change this is the first time this chassis has been shown and you know you guys obviously got to pay attention for more information but as you can see this this definitely gathers a lot of attention because it is just so different now each this total chassis weight is about 90 pounds in fact they've got some pieces over here on the table as you can see it's got five five of these pieces here connect to the frame to give you this sort of a twisted look and that's how you access the actual frame on the inside it's pretty typical internal construction as you can see for mounting things like your motherboard and your power supply grab fans this does obviously qualify as an open chassis yeah this is gonna be one of those things that who knows how many they make and again that price is subject to change but a 90-pound chassis basically handmade hand sanded hand polished and each one that becomes available will have that same treatment all hand polished and sanded that is a massive amount of human work hours that go into making these chassis x' so right Leonie right now we're taking a look at some desks this one doesn't actually have a name but the reason why we're even talking about this is Brion moved into a new condo in Long Beach which if you guys have ever had downtown living life in you know space is a concern so they've got a fully water-cooled build on display here again this table has no name but it is fully height adjustable you can see you got a control panel right here on the side we've got some front side USB connectors audio connectors there isn't HDMI on the preview on the current model but this one doesn't appear to have one but the reason why we've been talking about this is we're gonna be doing a built for Brian in his new condo he's really interested in these types of desk builds and I'm really interested in water cooling one of them and you guys have been asking me quite a bit to do something like that and so it looks like this is gonna be our opportunity I apologize about the glare that's obviously it's a glass top but he can fit a 360 millimetre rad in the front a 240 or 280 red right here on the back you could also fit a 120 there is a massive amount of ventilation as you can kind of see going through to the ground we got some vents up here underneath where the reservoirs are there's actually a horizontal reservoir right there so the idea is it's pulling air in from the front the you know technically your crotch I guess so I mean there's that but it's pulling an air from the user side of the case blowing it through to the back and exhausting out right here your power supply is right over there and all of your i/o and motherboard as you can see goes right here it's good to see in there a little better now we have the glass top taken off pretty easy to work in I guess everything you would need to access is right here there's a water pump here your graphics card they've didn't they didn't incorporate in their loop but they just bent around it and then you can see right here the ventilation is at an angle so that obviously as you sit at the desk you bring your knees up you're not going to bump into the desk but you still get the depth you need back here on the rear side so it's pretty well thought out design so we can't come to Lee and Lee now talk about some of their cases this was actually the 11 dynamic this was a devourer build their Bower built this and as you can see it's quite a bit of water cooling so you got three there's a radiator on the side here actually this is a slim 360 you've got to fix 360s on the top and on the bottom so one the top one that's bottom you got three 360s in here a lot of fans obviously stuff room for your reservoir force your RGB extension cables that you've seen your a lot of youtubers really do reviews on and the typical brushed aluminum real nice real classy look you'd expect from Lee and Lee lots of airflow I feel ton of air coming out at the top you would you would kind of think that something like this might be a little bit air restricted but no absolutely not something else that Lindley has actually decided to start selling as a limited edition kyusyu to be on my videos I don't volunteer everyone knows this video what happens when you start to b-roll the B roller so what happens when a suits an ASA tech team up well you get an all new style a IO cooler that actually has an OLED screen built into it that is customizable as you can see so asus is getting into the ro or the ROG is actually getting into the a io market you can see this one right here this is the on a Maximus X it's very large it's obviously to accommodate the adjustable RGB as well as the OLED screen built in and then we have a smaller version over here as you can see which looks very more reminiscent to an ASA tech coolidge you expect to see but once again an AMOLED screen built in to the actual top itself so you can customize that in the ROG software too well RGB was the thing and asus is taken to the next level by obviously putting in a screen other than that it's just an ASA tech cooler so it's the RG gaming dream machine right here this is actually a two chamber chassis this is a concept of something that are looking to maybe produce it's actually both chambers can actually move all the cooling is located down here in the bottom as well as the power supply and then up on the top we have an ITX base risin 2700 X system that is water-cooled you can see here we have what looks like a Poseidon card or some sort of a Asus card looks like a Poseidon to me and then if we come over here to the side you can actually see into all the components and on the back you can see the pass-through fittings they've made for the water cooler itself the chassis does move up and down though I don't know how to do it so I don't my gonna do it myself but this is something they're looking at potentially and bring it to market when I don't know that's most common thing you're gonna hear in Computex is that's really cool but when is it available the answer is well maybe we don't know so how much you guys think of this dream machine from ROG all right so we're looking at here is these Asus Zenbook throw you know Apple kind of has the touch bar well they've taken it a step further and they've taken the actual touch pad which you would normally use to control the device and turned it into a functional display we've seen something similar to this from Razer in the past where the 10-key doubled as a screen underneath the buttons but this is different so be pulled down right here you can see you get a menu agree up a calculable so pull down from the top you get a calculator you can go to the home screen you can grandpa so Google Chrome you can actually make this the full display too for the computer so this will show up as a second display right now there are five apps actually created for this holy crap ugh I love those five apps created for this they have more coming online later on but this is a what's new here from a suits and the Zen butt bro you know I had no idea that asrock actually made graphics cards what were you looking at right here is actually some AMD graphics cards from as rocks we got rx 560 you've got a 550 572 an Rx 56 are big of 56 but as you know with the Vega that's just a AMD built deck card and they give it their own label and stuff on it but if you guys knew that as well made graphics cards then you knew something that I didn't which makes you smarter than me but do you probably already knew that I wanted to check out some stuff at MSI before we left we actually were sent one of their new thin laptops before the show so fortunately I already have that but allow me to show you one of the reasons why I'm not really going up there there's a huge sea of people alright guys that's gonna wrap up our day to you oh hey look Microsoft I wonder if any their pcs need an update probably anyway guys that's gonna wrap up day two for us hope you guys have enjoyed what you've seen so far tomorrow we're gonna be heading over to some of the private suites so we'll see what we're gonna get shown there but check out all these Microsoft computers here I'm sure we can find at least one that is a bricked 18:03 build or maybe even waiting for an update whatever guys we're gonna go thanks for watching as always let us know if there's anything specifically you'd love for us to check out otherwise I will see you in the next one
