this video from CES 2019 is brought to you by Corsair their new Corsair one is bigger badder and better than ever before and that sponsor message was actually at least 60% lie because the new Corsair 1 which is actually the subject of this video is neither bigger nor badder it's actually good err but it is definitely better which is kind of the same thing as good or now I'm not a huge fan of the naming scheme here because they're just calling it Corsair 1 again I actually really like George's pitch he apparently liked Corsair doose as the name for the follow-up but there was some internal pushback on that so this is what we've got but they're expanding the lineup there's the Corsair 1 I 144 sir 1 I 160 and Corsair one Pro I 180 an we're gonna start with that one without making it bigger remember they have packed 12 processing cores into this thing they've got an RT X xx atti 32 gigs of quad-channel memory m2 boot drive they've got two and a half inch expansion they've got a 750 watt power supply and they've done all of this while not only making it cooler so it's able to run they claim 10 to 15 degrees cooler on the CPU but also making it quieter so the more efficient components along with their completely redesigned GPU cooler means that every component in here with a fan has a zero rpm mode now which is pretty freaking sick so the only thing you would hear when you're idling at the desktop is a tiny bit of pump noise now there's a couple of other changes that are more obvious from the front they've moved the i/o down to the bottom so you don't have the cable weight kind of hanging off of your slots anymore it's a little bit easier to reach as well on your desk they have added RGB lighting and this is across the board for the new corsair ones and the pro has a silver chassis I guess designed to appeal more to the to the workstation user so that's exactly how they've got this thing set up because if you're gonna have 12 processing course you're basically into budget workstation territory in terms of the performance that you are putting on the table now it's also gonna come with a high price this guy's a 5000 US dollars but don't worry too much about that for those of you who are like there's other Corsair ones for you folks there's the coarser 1i 160 so we lose for processing cores we go down to a core I nine ninety nine hundred K we go down to dual channel memory though still 32 gigs of it the specs of this thing are still pretty through the roof including an RT X xx atti and we drop down to a 600 watt power supply for the so for the pure gamers this one's gonna make a ton more sense because you're giving up only really workstation performance in heavily multi-threaded applications but you are gaining back $1,400 in your pocket because this one is just $35.99 compared to $5000 now I do want to take this opportunity to point out a couple of the other changes that they made in order to get the cooling system of this thing to the point where not only do they not have to run that 99 hundred K in any kind of goofy like low-power small form-factor mode but even allow it to be overclocked because remember it's a standard Mini ITX motherboard in here one of the things they've done is they've actually opened up a lot more perforation on those dual radiators that they've got on the right and left side panels so that means more cooling more quieter and generally nothing better about it whatsoever finally we've got the i-140 and the only difference is here that we stepped down to a core i7 9700 k so it doesn't have hyper threading compared to the last one and we go from an RT x 2080 TI to an RT x 2080 its corsair so it's still loaded for bear when it comes to the solid-state storage and 32 gigs of ram or whatever but i guess that's fine because you are gonna be paying a cool $3,000 even for the entry-level model so that's it for this video in the Corsair booth the funny thing is I think for like this sponsored CES video I'm actually it's actually the Corsair one so I guess I could do a recap of the talking points but maybe it'd be better for me to just say hey if the Corsair one looks pretty cool to you either in black or silver then you should go check out the link in the video description because it's available already like starting now this is not just some vaporware announcement these things are ready to rock so don't miss any of our CES 2019 coverage you guys about making sure you're subscribed Linus tech tips and we see you in the next suite know you're not gonna be on follow me this time
