Master Concept 2 by Cooler Master

2016-06-03
my coverage of Computex 2016 is proudly sponsored by fractal design MSI and g.skill oh we're cooler master yes we are they have too much stuff here and I'm not even including all this maker stuff that they have give me a give me a head scratch ball give me a head scram get a little itchy ah yeah good great see did your nails get longer though okay no then my manicurist it's amazing he is alright so obviously there's two really cool things that we both want to talk about here there's the master concept too and there's a really adorable cute little hybrid cooler yeah so we both want to talk about that but I think there's too much for us to both cover otherwise so how about this we'll split we'll split it up I'm gonna handle the cases okay I'll take the power supplies all right I'll do the I'll do the coolers the fans and perhaps some of the peripherals I like the keyboards and stuff yeah nice all right let's get it okay cool wait first off Kristoff oh it's not this little guy has something to say what do you have to say little guy hey Wow his words not that's uncalled for his words why don't you uh want to get record when you stop recording what why do you stop recording with you what's wrong what's going on Paul what's wrong why can't you what happened it's 2:00 and you no longer I got I did it useless so we actually saw the master concept last year in its version one but I wasn't able to show anyone it was over here under like a big sheet and they're like hey look at this thing it's really cool you can't show anyone that was mad but this is actually well we can show you at least the outside of the master concept now the weird thing about this is that you'll see this massive case right here larger in fact than the cosmos too and then if you see this case over here which is quite a bit diminutive those are both like the same case they're not the same case but what they're going for here is complete modularity so again we can't show you the inside there's still some like stuff they're working on you know they don't want any trade secrets leaking out but you've got removable modular panels right up here all the way across the top if you open that up there's a motherboard tray that's in there but it can be shifted and moved around pretty much wherever you want everything's on Rails there were no rivets that I saw so pretty much anything can just be shifted and moved and put in different places or you can sort of bring down the chassis size down to something like this and this is actually featuring a mini ITX version of the motherboard tray that was in there and they already even showed us how these little pieces right here you can just pop them off from one bring it over and put it back on the other one again guys this is just stuff they're working on their ideas they've done a lot with this I think since last year and it still has a little bit of a ways to go since obviously we can't show you the insides but I think it's a pretty interesting concept and for anyone who likes cases that are the size of a small car well this is probably to be the case for you moving on to cases you can actually buy available in q3 is going to be the mastercase pro 3 so they got three five seven fives the one that's already out fives kind of a full size case this is a micro ATX case this being the pro it's going to be coming with a clear side panel window of course and this one of course is outfitted with an entire system inside this is actually Dillon hose mastercase pro 3 it's outfitted by him it's got like the Coolermaster little graphics card support guy in there of course still got the modular system for all the drive trays that you can pop in there and it's micro ATX I really like micro ITX as a form factor it's not quite as restricting as mini ITX gives you a little bit more expand ability for graphics cards so you can see they got a 2-way SLI configuration going on right there although there's no SLI bridges on there he must be using that for GPU computer something like that anyway the other thing that's inside here that we already kind of mentioned is this really interesting little cooler it's actually like a hybrid it's it's got liquid going in there also a fan and it's all in this one little unit so it's a 92 millimeter fan at a very small 92 millimeter radiator and look what was just handed to me this is perfect so we were actually pretty excited about this thing so here you can see it in kind of a vertical orientation the block or the plate is down at the bottom just a couple little tubes going up to the tiny little radiator and if you want something that's going to fit in a smaller form factor case or if you just don't want to like you know route a bunch of stuff over to a big radiator or that kind of thing it's going to be a very interesting little product we were surprised at this it doesn't have a name yet though so if you guys think of a cool name for this product leave that in the comments section here's an exciting case this is the pro 7 so actually no I'm sorry this is the maker 7 remember with Matt with Coolermaster they have this new naming convention so you either have like you know a master case or whatever then you got the pro and you got the maker makers at the top end so this one is outfitted with a tempered glass side panel here it's got a lower chamber here for radiators it's got plenty of room in their massive drive support right here and it's even got a removable panel up on top so you can just pop that off if you want a little bit less noise pop it on a little bit more airflow you remove it just like that of course it's got all the modular features of the master series so it's going to be compatible with all of the accessories that are already for sale on this coolermaster store CM store and they're also starting to get those accessories now to other retailers such as Amazon and Newegg so we'll be seeing those available so you have like you know replaceable front panels and other drive trays you can integrate there that GPU support as well we do not have a price point for the maker 7 but they're planning to act we launched it make it make it available for sale CES in 2017 I've already seen the odd-numbered mastercase series well now we have the even-numbered mastercase series so these are a little bit more subdued as far as the maybe industrial design goes but they're geared a little bit more towards silence for one so this one for instance has a little bit more protective panels up in front perhaps you know slightly more restricted airflow but you got to balance that out with the sound design still some gaps in there in the front you can pop that little panel up on top and you get your connectivity for USB 2.0 USB 3.0 they even have a USB type-c connector on there which I love you get the clear side panel there and then they've done a unique thing here on the back as well just trying to keep things nice and clean especially maybe if you're in an office environment or you just like to have a clean workspace routing the cabling out of the back of your case can often be a challenge so they're working with this mesh that they have here and they actually showed us some of it like that so it's basically flexible and you can sort of pop little gaps in it to route your cables through so you can rep you know group them all up and rat them out through a specific porch or that kind of thing and obviously the different versions of these might be made in the pro or maker form but right now we have the four right here and then we have the slightly larger six Akula master in many ways is all about design and they wanted to go with the sort of cleaner design for the master case series but they also wanted to give people a little bit more edge if that's what you're into so they've decided that when they add a tea on the end of a product name it's going to be edgier it's also going to have colors so they're working on the color right now they're they're going to develop a specific color and they're going to stick with it for this so they're going with sort of a darker more subdued red which actually has pretty cool look and then if you compare this these two cases side-by-side you can just see it's a little bit more angled it's a little bit more aggressive it's a little bit more svelte back here has a sort of back and it's got like a like a spoiler cat on the back there a little bit and they've also added a handle up on top which is kind of a throwback to like the CM storm striker for example which I really like is it's really convenient to just be able to pick up the case and move it around but it also looks pretty cool so there it is and let me know what you guys think keys again this is still in development if I'm not mistaken but and do we have do we know when this might be coming out No all right we have no ETA on this but I think it looks pretty cool let me know what you guys think in the comments down below I really cool on it wanted to show you guys these frames of the cases because they're sort of showing us how as you go up and scale when it comes to the different cases they're designing you're basically getting more and more options as far as modularity and sort of re customizing your case to make it more your own so this right here is sort of the base frame for the master case then you move it up to the master case maker and then you move it up all the way to the 7 right here which is basically just a big aluminum frame which gives you limitless possibilities now some CPU heatsink fans right there but Kyle's covering this of course well we'll let him deal with that what I'm going to talk about is these power supplies so again we're looking at sort of a unification of mashed cooler masters as I keep saying master for cooler masters naming conventions so master watt maker master watt pro master watt and master watt light so you'll notice no Pro pro that's in the middle makers at the top also they've added some light products so this is going to be a little bit more budget oriented so this power supply for instance not any plus rated but it's going to be very affordable no modular cabling we got moving up to the master watt this one is significantly heavier it's got partial modularity and it features 80 plus bronze support or efficiency rating I should say the master watt Pro gets a little bit heavier gives you full modularity these are only 150 millimeters long so keeping the distance from the back of the case to where the power supply ends weird way of saying that but yeah keeping it short means it especially in smaller form factor cases you're going to be able to fit these cooler master has also now been using their own fans across this entire series so that helps them tune the fan speed a little bit more keep a bit more consistency at the top end we kind of teased this a little bit at CES this year this is the master watt maker and it's insanely heavy so they have a they have the higher amperage plugs on this one not only in the plug in the back but also they've custom design their own modular plugs there so again providing a higher amperage so if you're having possible over voltage over current issues it's either gonna be able to handle those of course strip the protections that are built into the power supply this is a 1200 watt power supply this one has two rails and it also features digital support oh my gosh it's heavy heavy is good in a power supply by the way so they've also have an app right here that you can use you can do different configurations silence you can do a gaming setting you can do an overclock setting that will just wrap up everything you know probably give you max fan speed and you can even go in there and dynamically set up a stepping for the fan ramp speed so as the temperature goes up the fan goes up more so you can give yourself quieter experience or a cooler experience it even has a thing where you can plug in how much money like your power costs in your local area and it will tell you how much money your computer is costing you to run which that's pretty convenient anyway guys that's all for the Coolermaster booth I hope you've enjoyed this stay tuned for more coverage from company Tex 2016 and one last final thanks to my sponsors fractal
