XOTIC PC G7 Avenger! $4000 PC GIVEAWAY!

2018-02-07
what's up guys JC cents here and this is a big box it is a big box I'm about to show you what's in the box what's in the box okay bad bad reference there why are you laughing ticket anyway if you guys want to know what's in the box stay tuned and if you want to be able to win what's in this box like physically this exact one to make sure you stay tuned to the end of the video this would be kind of hard for me cuz I have to unbox this and I have to keep it reusable because it's being shipped off after I'm doing it so what we have right here is actually a pre-built system from exotic PC something we've been working on collaborating since like back in November the problem was you know the holidays and CES a new year and all that get in the way and then recently with the whole cryptocurrency mining thing it's just been hard to build computers so that's why we're gonna talk about a prebuilt today because this might make more sense than ever to actually consider buying a prebuilt you know with the graphics card pricing being all ridiculous at all okay so this is one of those so we got a box in a box here boy I'm never gonna Jenga this back together you know that right there Zee 370 e Strix motherboard I have this exact one actually that's not really the start of the show this right here trust me when I say you are gonna want this we've got a mortar mouse this is a mouse pad you guys remember when I showed some of the custom pcs at CES well exotic PC was one of those systems and they you know I fancy that I myself a pretty good PC builder but there's a lot of people who want custom stuff like you see behind me right here but they just are not comfortable doing it themselves and/or they want the warranty or specifically today they cannot afford it because of the GPU prices and RAM prices alone that's why sis come in handy how you deco look we got more you're gonna have so much fun Reebok unit Oh baby oh well would you look at that I think this might be a rigid to system well when there's foam inside the case two paths button so far it looks like it's still full of fluid so that's a plus oh my god this is why you're here so this is the exotic PC g7 Avenger now you can outfit pretty much any kind of PC you want from them they are an SI a system integrator it means they're you know you guys forever emailed me going hey J can you build me a system I don't really want to do it myself I I like your build I want you to do it for me that's exactly what those guys do they build systems like this for a living everything from mild to wild I mean you guys could get pretty much anything out of exotic in terms of style I mean the sky's the limit let's see what's in the box here this is actually pretty heavy so they probably put all of your manuals and things in here exotic piece d here's your thank you for your purchase here's a sticker motherboard manual leftover cables and stuff from the EVGA power supply that's in there we even have an extra fan look at that that's like a $30 fan or throw $25 pin not that so we got that we got some more manuals everything that you need to understand your system how does that matter why am I so bad at this no when this system was ordered they communicate with you through the entire process they let you know it's being built to let you know it's being tested they'll let you know that it's passed QA and QC or quality control and then they give you your tracking information and all your shipping information and they've got several different types of shipping now normally the it will show up like you just saw right here it's all the insta pack foam double box might actually came on a pallet and you can actually palletize these if you want it is an option alright so in terms of specs obviously it's in a fractal design mesh if I see they put a custom logo on the front you've got an Intel 8700 k we've got an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 10 atti it's an EVGA version it says black edition we've got 16 gigabytes of g.skill Trident Z RGB 3800 and 66 megahertz it's the exotic PC stage 2 custom water cooling so what that basically means is the components that are cooled on this or stage 1 2 3 that it goes up from there you can cool motherboard it can go like I said from mild to wild so the stage refers to what parts are actually being water-cooled this is obviously a rigid tubing build right here they can do it with soft tubing as well let's see our operating system drive is a 250 gigabyte 960 Evo nvm a SSD and then we have a two terabyte sshd or a Seagate hybrid drive for our main storage on there so it is a fire CUDA and then it's got Windows 10 home on there but I want to kind of look at right here oh and in terms of cooling that I I'm not entirely positive of the brand of this radiator this looks like aqua computer I could be wrong but that looks like an aqua computer radiator and if it is and that is a seriously high-end red right there but look at all of this we got bits power fittings right here every little detail was thought of custom sleeved cables it looks like something I would build and probably a little better to be honest we've also got our RGB fans right here from Corsair and those are the Maglev fans but let's take a look at this right now that the chest for any builder is the cable management do we want to see what's behind here that's behind door number two Wow it's actually not bad at all so these are extensions that are on here we've got all of our rest of our cables down there we've got our controller right here for the RGB fans or something else I want to point out though this right here this is a drain valve so not only do they have it custom water cooled it is of course easy to maintain so here is your drain valve right there and you could actually fill it technically by this as well because it's not gonna be very easy to get to the reservoir on this particular case because of where they have it mounted let's take a look at that oh and here's our sshd right there cable management on this is extremely well thought-out but here's your reservoir right here so getting a fitting up into there even a tube isn't too easy and we kind of need if maybe they drilled a hole up here so you could get a funnel into that but whatever I mean I guess that's something the person themselves could do if they wanted to snip that out because you have this cover that goes on there anyway for your fan filter but you got to admit though they have done a great job at building a custom system inside of a small mid tower case like the mesh if I see so no but you know what's next we got to fire this up and we gotta sue this bad boy looks like when it's turned on I'm turned on you guys and I'm not gonna be loading any my profiles on here doing benchmarks or any of that mostly because I'm not keeping this system so I don't load I don't wanna load my stuff on there but exotic PC puts this thing through days of testing stress testing torture testing game testing to make sure there are absolutely zero problems with temperature or stability but the main reason why I'm not loading any of my stuff on here is because I'm not keeping this system this system is actually for a giveaway one of you lucky people watching this video is going to win this exact system and I'll sign it if you want me to otherwise I won't graffiti on your case so I'm not loading any of my stuff on here I want you to get it exactly as it ships but I guarantee you it performs as well as a 1080 Ti on water can perform and an 80 700 K I believe it's overclocked the thinking has a small overclock I really don't know we'll check the BIOS but this is gonna be yours and I don't want to start loading stuff on here and screwing around with it but some of the stuff we are gonna check is like acoustics the build quality we already saw is next to none this is this is really top tier build quality we're gonna check and see if it's overclocked we're gonna take a look in the BIOS and we're gonna see you have the lighting and stuff looks on this right now so without further ado let's go ahead and make sure this is on McHugh it wasn't says what they'll pay for okay so without further ado and procrastination let's go ahead just power it on and see what it looks like you can see we've got some passive RGB lighting there it's set to red just not really doing anything but what's look that switches to white I'm glad for this they went to white oh thank you for that we don't have RGB crap going everywhere looks like the ram is set to go to spectrum mode but the fans the motherboard and all of that is set to looks like blue and white so that just looks really really classy and look at the front of this the way the fans shine through that is pretty it's pretty quiet - I mean I can hear the fans blowing it's a small chassis and it's got a lot of resistance to overcome with the radiator and stuff in the front but this is definitely not intrusive we've got a pretty quiet environment right here so when I stop talking give you an idea of how quiet it is I'll tap the table and we do have a shotgun mic pointing down here do we have any oh we got MSI Afterburner here so we have an overclock profile looks like we have an overclock profile sets they have it set to plus 100 on the core temp limits the same power limits the same memory clock as a plus 100 I know for a fact it can go farther than that like I'm so tempted right now to move those sliders because I know where this card will go I won't mess with it that's hard for me though so we're under load right now in heaven benchmark I'm using this right now to test the GPU temperatures I'm curious to how hot it's gonna get looks like we're seeing at 36 C right now and here's the acoustics if you actually just listen you can hear the fans clearly I think some person the mic may not pick it up as good as your ears but this is definitely not invasive but there is a setting I'm gonna change after all I know I said I wasn't gonna touch this but there is one setting I'm gonna change check this out right here do you see how the frequency is bouncing all around one of the benefits to water cooling a GPU is the fact that this doesn't become a factor because there's two things that can cause the frequency to bounce around like that temperature but it's usually not gonna bounce under temperature it's just gonna start to step down slowly and power limit now while we're overclocking this graphics card which they've done with a plus 100 they didn't move the power limit slider so what I'm gonna do right now and I want you to watch this number as I do it in real-time do you see how this is still bouncing around plus or minus over a hundred megahertz at times now watch if I take the power limit and the temp limit max these out watch what happens to this whoops watch grab is to this for speed and check that out locked lock the 20 60 to beat and we're gonna go and save this profile back to number one there we go the reason why we do that is because we are overclocked and underwater we are also water cooling the V RMS on this card because it's a full cover water block it's an ek water block we are not over extending the limits of this card at all so now we've got a much more consistent core clock it still has not changed as you can see right there that's the only change I'm going to make to their settings right here max out the power limit max out the temp limit as you can see at 38 C under load 39 C this might top out you know on a warmer day maybe in the mid 40s I've seen today TI's looked at about the mid-40s under load that is not going to be a problem so as you can see there 2062 overclock yeah send it let it go don't don't let it fluctuate like that so the only change I'm making to their settings right there all right in the other testing one to do was Cinebench r15 mostly because I'm just curious as to how the per overclock performance rather than they sync all cores which I normally do and I'm gonna take a look at the temperatures right here now I'm well aware it's not a full burn test it's not gonna sit there and get the loop all the way up to temp but it's I know we've got a fairly oversized loop given the components that are in here and the quality of the radiator that our temperatures are not gonna creep up too much over time so let's just go ahead and send it and our temperatures are here you see 71 70 72 so it's like we went right to the low 70s on an overclocked 8700 k that's pretty acceptable I mean the 8700 K like I said runs toasty people know this so this should not surprise anybody this is still 35 C away from thermal Junction max so we've got plenty of cooling overhead and we run a 1500 exactly so not bad okay so here's our profile looks like it's set to is it set to 2133 is there no overclock oh no we have an overclock right here see it set to 4.9 CP is currently running at 24 C in the BIOS 25 C so that's nice I doubt it's deleted I have I don't believe it's delete it at all but we do have an XMPP profile loaded right here that's 38 68 on our memory and we do have a per core overclock right now set to 4.9 then going down at four point seven seven and five to five so it is going to bounce around the 4.9 cores to whichever 2 or under the most load and it seems like a pretty stable way to do it I mean obviously when you're dealing with customers and stuff and you're an SI you want to build a system it's with me as stable as possible when I build mine like the ones you see back there those are on the edge they're on the razor's edge of crashing but that's ok because that's part of the game for me that's part of the chase is finding that stable overclock obviously for a client build or a customer build you don't want that you don't want them being you know inconvenienced with random crashes stuff but that being said obviously this carries a full warranty and this is a good time to talk about sis and where we are right now because a lot of people don't know this but sis in many cases have priority with GPU purchases I talked to a couple of different GP manufacturers prior to making this video and they did confirm with me that s i--'s get priority so that system builders can continue building systems and they get them either at or extremely close to MSRP not be jacked up pricing that you're seeing because of cryptocurrency so with that said this might be the best time ever to consider a pre-built system because for the first time ever I think it's cheaper to build a whole system from scratch through an SI you go up to the website and choose the parts you want they build it there's a nominal you know markup that they make you know they can keep running their business on it's still cheaper than trying to do it yourself because of the pricing of GPUs in the current market now we can hope that all changes but as you can see there are builders out there that take a huge passion in what they do exotic PC being absolutely no different and I'm really happy to see that they built a system right here that I would be absolutely proud to put on my own desk and use guys check the description below there is a link down there where you can enter this giveaway because of the price this Jeep this system right here is just under $4,000 so someone's getting a $4,000 tower and the extras that come with it right here we got the exotic PC mouse pad and mouse so you guys can definitely someone's getting a heck of a prize package here but all the rules and regulations and all that stuff is in that link also a huge thank you to fractal design they were also involved in helping me arrange all of this obviously they're metaphysis it was a huge part of the showcase here so again a huge thank you to fractal design but guys I'm gonna go thanks for kind of checking out this overview and first look at the exotic PC g7 Avenger someone's gonna be getting a heck of a prize so anyway don't come to me asking for the details everything you need to know is in the description below as always guys thanks for watching and I will see you in the next one
