SYSTEM GIVEAWAY [CLOSED] & Overclocking On "Locked" CPUs & Chipsets - Supermicro booth - CES 2016

2016-01-09
thank you to Squarespace for sending us to CES 2016 this year check out their link in the video description down below alright guys before we get into the giveaway which I know you guys are probably a little antsy for I got to talk about the supermicro H 170 this board is pretty crazy because it allows overclocking on non overclockable CPUs the non k-series CPUs and it's using an H series chipset which is a non overclocking chipset but you can overclock that lands its price kind of somewhere between what you would expect from a standard H 170 and a standard Z 170 board they accomplished this overclock ability in layman's terms by having a custom bios with some nice little algorithms in there and by having an external clock generator outside of the CPUs platform this allows them to completely bypass Intel's currently locked overclocking clock speed generator and have their own this requires some upgrades to what you would normally see on an H 170 board you need an expanded vrm you need expanded cooling you need that kind of stuff but that's where the cost is not in the chipset but you get the same capabilities pretty damn cool for example they have an i3 6100 te here which normally runs at 2.7 gigahertz it's a two core for thread processor and they have it overclocked to 4.1 which is pretty ridiculous not really a thing we're used to and very very very cool and then finally on the back for i/o you have two USB 2.0 ps2 DVI hdmi displayport optical for USB 3.0 gigabit ethernet and a bank of 3.5 millimeter audio connectors finally to the giveaway details we got some more to talk about after that but first I need you guys to like subscribe do that then go down below and comment let me know what you think about overclocking on a non k cpu and an h series chipset if you win that will get you this whole system that's 16 gigabytes of predator ddr4 a 256 gigabyte fury SSD from hyperx a PNY reference 980 TI at 750 watt seasonic power supply the i3 6100 te that we mentioned earlier which does come pre overclocked to 4.1 gigahertz just in case you're worried about doing that on your own and obviously the supermicro H 170 and super micro s5 special edition as well also if you didn't notice it comes with the nice little add-ons like the custom red extensions leavings and the red LEDs that go around the case and last but not least we have the c7 Z 170 oce this is a green stylized motherboard which is actually super cool because it's not a ton of people that are doing that right now this also features the overclock ability for non k-series CPUs that the previous motherboard does but this is a Zed 170 chipset so if you have say a 6700 you would be able to overclock it unlike normal where you'd have to overclock on a 6700 k you may be able to save some money that way pretty cool in terms of i/o this one has a ps2 port two USB 2.0 ports optical hdmi displayport DVI two USB 3.0 s a USB type-c gen2 connector two gigabit connectors and a bank of 3.5 millimeter audio jacks thank you guys for watching stay subscribed linus tech to see all the rest of our CES content and make you to Squarespace for bringing us here this year if you need to make a website for whatever i'm honestly running out of ideas for these so if you want to make a website about ideas about why you would make a website you could do that with squarespace using their template engine and you could sell your ideas with their commerce module so there i guess i'm still not out of ideas just quite yet if you're having troubles with that they have 24 7 live chat support and email support and if you buy a year of Squarespace you get a domain for free Squarespace build it beautiful thanks for watching we'll see you guys next time
