NCIX PC Vesta A1 Special Edition All AMD Gaming Rig Showcase Linus Tech Tips

2011-06-01
so welcome to the lab here is the latest little thing crazy Russians been working on we've actually done another batch of red cases and this is for a new special edition system so once again we're only going to be building five of these but this is going to be the Vesta a one so this is an all AMD build inside you'll find Anna Sue's crosshair for formula with a wonderfully color-coded overall scheme to it we've got corsair dominator GT ram the AMD phenom 2 x6 of the six core 1100 T and finally the radeon HD 6990 it's lit with red LEDs so in the dark and I unfortunately can't really turn off the lights in our office otherwise people get upset it looked simply stunning we've gone with a blu-ray rewriter for the optical drive just so that you have the flexibility to do whatever it is you could possibly see fit and we're using a corsair force 3 sandforce SSD for our storage needs now these do not have a hard drive by default because the intention for the first two systems anyway is for them to be demos at the AMD booth at e3 so please let us know with a comment on the video if you do see one of these systems on display oh yeah one thing I missed is that we have the brand-new corsair h16 here it's got a very solid looking mounting system overall I think it'd be pretty much impossible to remove that from the cpu socket so that's outstanding and the system also stays very cool and very quiet the noise signature of the 6990 particularly is dramatically improved from the original launch cards that we saw that got so loud up here we have some cooler master are for fans it would appear not yet crazy Russian confirms that those are red LED fans and I suspect we'll get a little bit brighter if you turn up the fan speed but then they're also louder so there you go all of this is in one of our custom painted 650 DS and I think that's pretty much all there is to say about if you do end up going to e3 check this out in the AMD booth don't forget to subscribe to Linus tech tips from our own boxing's reviews and other apparently random computer videos
