Desktop Video Card in an AIO!? - MSI AX24 AIO & Updated Gaming Dock Mini

2015-06-04
thank you to MSI for bringing us to Computex 2015 this year we wouldn't be here without them and thank you also to lynda.com all right guys welcome back to the msi booth where we are checking out the ax 24 which is an a i/o computer that is able to use a full desktop sized GPU and CPU also we have an update to their gaming dock which is the gaming dock mini which Linus is probably gonna be a lot more happy about the ax 24 can fit a like I said desktop CPU it's not coming out yet so it will be compatible with skylake CPUs once they're available and now this is a set so you get a skylight CPU you get 64 gigabytes of RAM that's four sticks at 16 gigabytes 2 m dot 2 slots 4 drives which can raid together a two and a half inch drive slot and a blu-ray drive I'm so sorry so sorry it unfortunately doesn't come with a Paul you're a i/o computer does not come with it Paul gotta go but that graphics card does have a PCI gen3 16x slot so you won't have any degradation in the graphics card that you have now the GPU does require dedicated power along with the rest of the AIO so this will require 2 power plugs going directly to it and right now there's a kind of oddly Genki HDMI cable using the HDMI IN for that graphics card but that's only required for certain operating system configurations that will probably be solved later so you won't need it now HDMI in I just mentioned IO it has an HDMI IN in the back to HDMI outs two USB 3.0 2 USB 2.0 2 audio jacks and a killer Gigabit LAN jack it also has a o on the side which is dual USB 3.0 one SDXC card reader and one power jack on the top of the unit you have your power button a slider to cover your webcam which is absolutely pretty cool considering certain things that have been happening lately and a handle for people that want to carry this around to LANs or if they want to bring it to work or whatever the heck handles are cool so that's pretty badass no more compromises for a IO you have a full desktop size graphics card which will be able to cool itself very easily through that meshing that's on the front if it's a blower or non blower style card that'll be totally fine and it can exhaust out through the IO side of the graphics card or on all the perimeter sides of that cooler there is spacing so it can expel air depending on what type of cooling solution that graphics card has and you have a desktops processor you have you have 64 gigs of ram you pretty much everything you'd need and it's all in a i/o computer pretty cool configuration next up we have the gaming dock mini for the GS 32 M shadow which has a ton of improvements over the previous gaming jock you no longer need an external keyboard mouse and monitor you can use the ones on your laptop or use external ones it's kind of up to you but I expect a lot of people are going to be using the ones on the laptop as that's gonna be easier in many situations now if this is a home dock which is never ever moving then sure that's great get your external mouse keyboard monitor all that kind of stuff but if you ever want to move this dock around you could get all the power of that GPU while using your laptop's monitor your laptop's keyboard and your laptop's Mouse the power supply or lack thereof as before in the previous version of this you needed a full desktop size power supply with this one it just has an adapter from the wall is able to support 330 watts of power directly to that graphics card in terms of i/o it's the same as before on the right hand side you have dual audio jacks and Ethernet jack four USB 3.0 Jack's your power input and a power button and on the left-hand side you have all the i/o for the graphics card what is really different about this and what really makes it a lot better from the previous version is the ID or the general design before it was this big cumbersome box that you had to use all these accessories for was really annoying to move around and you needed a desktop power supply now it has an adapter directly to the wall instead of a desktop power supply the ID is slanted so you can actually properly use the keyboard for the laptop on it and you don't have to use an external keyboard mouse or monitor which makes it a lot more usable in a lot more situations alright guys what do you think about msi putting desktop graphics cards in freaking everything can we even call them desktop graphics cards anymore let me know what do you think I think it's awesome they all thinks it's a desktop graphics card should be everywhere can I put a desktop graphics card on me why not you can there we go put a bunch of them on and wear them like armor like armor armor desktop graphics cards em aside that's your next project anyways let me know in the comments down below or
