welcome to ZOTAC today we're gonna be covering it passively cooled ZBOX an entry-level Z box and a new nvme drive thank you to Squarespace for bringing us to CES 2016 this year and check out that link in the video description down below so we're gonna start with the zotac c series this is their passively cooled model and they've had these in the past but this one's much larger and has a much more badass CP unit so this one specifically is running an Intel Core i5 6300 you skylake which is a big step above I believe the i3 is that they had in the smaller models that does require much more metal due to the heatsinks than that will plate this in the top and all that kind of stuff so it does have some weight to it but they did say that the final version will be a little bit lighter than it was here so I'm not going to quote the weight and I wouldn't look too closely at the size either because they're saying it's gonna get a little bit smaller as well do the previously mentioned processor it also has Intel HD graphics 520 it has a two and a half inch SSD or hard drive tray which is configurable as you would like it can support up to two sticks of ddr3 else up to sixteen gigabytes of memory on the front of the unit it features a power button two USB 3.1 type-c connectors a USB 3.0 slash SD card slot which is actually pretty cool and then headphone and microphone jacks the tops and sides both feature a really cool honeycomb mesh aesthetic the bottom just has some feet to raise it up off the ground and keep it away from sliding on your desk next time think about the zotac is ZBOX EI 740 which is the more entry-level zi box that we're gonna be checking out today it features an Intel Core i3 6100 T skylake processor and then AMD Radeon r9 M 365 X with 2 gigabytes of gddr5 I'm under the impression that this is somewhere around the desktop rated performance of a 750 Ti if you're wondering this one features 2 ddr3l sodium slots a two and a half inch slot for a hard drive or SSD configurable as you please and an m2 SSD slot as well this one's aesthetic isn't quite as awesome as the previous one but still is pretty good being mostly matte I do like that on the left hand side we have a large circular power button then we have a USB 3.0 slash SD card slot on the more right-hand side with a headphone and microphone jack in 3.5 million meter after that and then USB 3.0 type-c connector on the far right hand side just note when we're looking at the back here there's actually three full-size display ports not six that you're able to see those six are for a digital signage version of this computer not an actual consumer available version there's a Wi-Fi antenna which also supports Bluetooth 4.0 dual gigabit ports and dual USB 3.0 ports with an AC jack on the back ZOTAC also announced a 480 gigabyte nvme drive at CES 2016 this year it's something we going under a fair amount of revisions both aesthetic and firmware wise in terms of speeds so I have them up on Twitter if you have any feedback it will currently be probably running at a sequential speed of in terms of read and write 2500 megabytes per second and 1200 megabytes per second respectively so it should be pretty beast mode I currently really like the aesthetic of the kind of hole based design on the gunmetal side that will probably be facing downwards in most configurations and I think they might be just making that flat so you can weigh in message them on Twitter thank you again to Squarespace for sending us here to CES 2016 if you guys need a website because you're super badass at making ball-based chandeliers that hang up in really crazy expensive hotel rooms then you know maybe make a Squarespace website you can use their commerce module to sell and distribute your crazy chandeliers you might even do that in person how do you distribute a chandelier genuine question let me know in the comments down below anyways if you're confused because you make chandeliers and not websites you can use their 24/7 live chat or live email so live email support their live chat or email support which are super super helpful they have tons of different graphics the pre-done templates that you can use to make it look really pretty and you can even maybe make it so that there's like images that are all of your different chandelier designs and that people can pick one specifically or they can see custom work that you've done for other people you have a gallery and a store on the same page anyways Squarespace build it beautiful I'll see you guys next time to see all of our CES 2016 content subscribe to lioness octaves
