Overkill Laptops @ PAX East 2017

2017-03-15
welcome to PAX East 2017 and welcome to the Intel booth we are going to check out the top three laptops and we have some special ones here also thank you to Intel who brought us here to practically 2017 Chhotu unlocks newegg.com for some special deals on processors while supplies last first off we're going to check out the biggest the heaviest most ridiculous laptop even though it probably shouldn't be allowed to be called that that I have personally ever seen it has a curved 2560 by 1080 screen it is IPS as 120 Hertz display and it's just not below that display it has a full teary MX brown mechanical keyboard the same that you would have on a desktop and on the right hand side there's a touchpad where you can flip it over and get a number pad as well inside it has an Intel Core i7 7820 hk2 GTX 1080s in sli 64 gigs of ram a one terabyte raid 0 of nvme drives and a one terabyte hard drive this is why it needs it's five bands and nine internal heat pipes the cooling on this thing is insane and it follows that up with giant exhaust ports in the back between those exhaust ports in the back you have to power ins for two different power bricks that are both 330 Watts Thunderbolt 3 Gigabit Ethernet 2 DisplayPort 1.2 ports and HDMI 2.0 on the right-hand side you have dual USB 3.0 s and a Kensington lock and then on the left hand side you have another dual USB 3.0 a headphone and microphone jacks and an SD card reader and all of that will cost you only a meagre nine thousand dollars which is over four times the price of my first car which is just absolutely ridiculous they don't have any different spec levels for this laptops you can't get less RAM or lower storage to make it cheaper but as Linus has said in the past I wouldn't even expect them to if you're going to spend $9,000 on a laptop I wouldn't expect you to be super worried about going down to eight and a half thousand in order to save a few bucks on a few extra specs this thing is ridiculous no one expects to buy it so the next laptop is going to be a little bit more reasonable next up we have a Norris x7 version 7 this one is still a blazing fast laptop with an Intel Core i7 78 20 HK 16 gigs of ram that can go up to 64 if you want to do some upgrading and an NVIDIA GTX 1078 gig with g-sync it has two 256 gigabyte nvme drives one one terabyte hard drive and a 1440p screen running at 120 Hertz with a 5 millisecond delay below that you have a fully RGB keyboard with 5 macro keys on the left hand side and you have 2 2 watt speakers and 2 2 watt subwoofers also in the unit on the left hand side you have a headphone and microphone jack USB 3.0 type-a and a full size Ethernet port on the back you've USB 3.0 power in and a light-up logo on the back of the screen and then on the right hand side you have an SD card reader a USB 3.0 port a USB 3.1 type C port HDMI 2.0 and a mini DisplayPort the fans in this unit pull air in from the top and then exhaust air out the back and out the sides of the unit so that they don't eat your hands up which is actually pretty cool and then to cap it off you have a ninety four point two four watt hour battery which to be able to keep you going for a fairly reasonable time I think this laptop makes a little bit more sense it's really high performance but it's a little bit more reasonable in the weight department and a little bit more reasonable in the price department although it is still very much a premium gaming laptop and last but not least we have the msi GS for t---three be our phantom pro this is toted as the lightest VR ready laptop and we already actually make sense here when they call like SSDs VR ready and stuff it carries no weight but a laptop B already cool I'm down with that it weighs 1.8 kilograms which is slightly less than 4 pounds and it is only 21 point 8 millimeters thick which is a fair amount less than one inch thick on the inside you have an Intel Core i7 7700 HQ which boosts up to 3.8 gigahertz and a TTX 1066 gigabytes this version has 16 gigabytes of RAM but can expand up to 32 gigabytes if you want to do that on your own and 128 gigabyte nvme drive along with a one pair white hard drive we got a 1080p webcam - 2 watt speakers and a 61 @ watt hour battery which is pretty alright especially for house inin light this laptop is on the left hand side you have a Kensington lock slot full-sized Ethernet an SD card slot 3 USB 3.0 ports on a headphone and microphone jack on the right hand side you have USB 3.0 Thunderbolt HDMI 2.0 mini DisplayPort and power in so we had the full range we have the juggernaut really heavy really powerful really ridiculous really expensive then we have the one in the middle really fast very high refresh rate screen but a reasonable weight and a slightly more reasonable price then we went down a little bit more it's thinner it's really light doesn't weigh very much but still high enough performance to doovy are really easy to tote around hopefully you liked our top three at the Intel booth at PAX East 2017 again be sure to go to unlocks newegg.com to see deals on SL products right now I know at the very least they have processors on sale right now while supplies last and stay subscribed a lot of tech tips to see all the rest of our PAX East 2017 content and everything else that we make on the channel
