my coverage of copy text 2018 is brought to you by gigabyte Coolermaster team group and Thermaltake hey guys I'm at Corsair the lighting in here is a little weird so apologize for that but they have really cool lighting but things which is strange but anyway point being I'm going to take a look at a couple more cases as well as the IQ software which Corsair has been developing to give you the maximum amount of control possible over your RGB LEDs it's like a look let's start out right here the vengeance RGV probes successor to the vengeance LED kits that they came out with last year these are pretty they've basically redesigned the top beam they have individual addressable LEDs so that means they're compatible with the new IQ software the developments beyond this I mean it's it's aesthetically different they are also running these at higher speeds so they did have a kit over here that's running at a pretty high frequency 4700 speed cache latency 19 so it was pretty impressive they are expecting to actually launch this kits later this year so probably in another few months so you might be able to actually get it by its install the XMP setting and get some fast memory up and running next up is IQ that's I see Yui also sounds like you're really smart too this is the advancement of the software and if you guys remember last year at Computex I did a very specific video on this or I covered it in great detail because if that was really cool Mercer is working to try to get all of the LEDs working together on your systems with supper you can still see all the connected devices right now they have an RGB Platinum k95 keyboard and RGB Mouse wireless headsets a RGB headset stands a mouse mats a h1 50 I Pro the power supply the Vengeance RGB Pro memory in there as well as a commander Pro that's connecting fans in the LED strips there's no way I'm gonna be able to explain all the different features of the software but for one it has a full mode where you can actually go in and individually select different devices to control them if you're controlling the vengence RGB Pro memory for example you can individually sect select the LEDs on it you can even flip them or rearrange them since different motherboards have different layouts for the DIMM slots and some of them have clips DIMM slots just so he can make sure the LEDs are going in the right direction when it's in the full mode it's actually going to use up some CPU resources so they also have a slim mode where you can pop it over to the side that will use less resources if you're doing some overclocking or system stress testing your corsair IQ software will not be eating up CPU cycles and also text it away over the side so you can still access all of the monitoring features because there's tons of monitoring features for system fan speeds temperatures and you can rearrange those you can take a specific temperature and break it out so you can rearrange all the boxes so it's very modular you can basically set it up how you want it to look another cool feature is just the simple access for single color lighting so if you're finding the controls to be a little too complex for you you can just go up there select the single color and change your entire rig or your entire set of our GPS to that single color there's a whole range of lighting effects in here too so they're taking advantage of the switch over to investable individual RGB LEDs they they had a red white and blue theme that was pretty cool some full color themes some dual color themes I think they're all quite pretty especially if you get the entire RGB set up like Corsair has going on here and then you can also attach the software it's a specific application logic so for example if you queue up a movie you can have it set to automatically turn all the fans off not just the RGB Xin the fans but also the fans themselves to keep the system running nice and quiet that's doing a fairly simple task of playback movie and then you can watch your movie in silence and without any lights from your RGB LEDs and then switch back up and they all become agreat back on oh and while I'm here here's a look at the Obsidian series 500d RGB spec Editions the Obsidian 500 d has been out for a little bit this one has been updated it's going to come with some individually addressable RGB LED fans now the special edition is going to cost about a hundred bucks more than the standard 500 d but it does come with a three pack of the individually addressable 120 millimeter of course there are GV LED fans that you can see installed right here and also comes with a commander pro so if you look at buying those things retail you are getting a bargain by getting this all together and with this case and the slightly tinted tempered glass windows the RGB LEDs do look quite nice so I think it's a nice option for anyone who wants to get the package and get themselves started on the road to RGB goodness and finally here's the crystal series 280x and 280x RGB the white version is the 280x RGB this is a micro ATX case which is a form factor that I really like and it's cool to see more cases embrace this form factor for motherboards not quite as tiny as mini ITX but you still get some expandability options there so the - ATX RGB version will come with a couple 120 millimeter ll series RGB fans as well as a lighting note Pro so again you can get yourself up and running with RGB LEDs still has the same features and layout of the other case so you got tempered glass on the top the front as well as the left side IO panel has your basic couple USB 3.0 ports mic headphone power and reset button and they have put some dust filters on the top front intakes here's a look at the black version without a system in it so you can sort of get it a little bit better idea of the layouts that's got the two chamber design so it's a little bit wider of a case but you can put the power supply on the right side your system goes in the left side and lastly they do have a thousand be here that's all decked out with of course there are GB LEDs and IQ software but I don't need to show you guys that because I've already done two videos on 1000d and yes I'm gonna be following at on those videos with a water cooling setup in there and I'll definitely be trying out the IQ software too because it's nice that that new version has come out with a lot more functionality and I'm definitely gonna get that system set up so it's just beautiful with lots of specialized RGB light effects so if you're interested in that video definitely hit the subscribe button down there hit the thumbs up button on this video if you enjoyed it I will be back with more coverage from Computex 2018 very soon and of course a big thank you to my sponsors gigabyte coolermaster Thermaltake and team group thanks for watching guys and we'll see in the next one
