my coverage of CES 2019 is brought to you by Corsair enter max deep cool and coolermaster if you can't tell by the massive RG logo I am now at the Asus suite I'm gonna start off by showing you guys this massive wall of sort of disassembled laptops this is the rog mothership GZ 700 and this is actually a crazy new gaming laptop that asus has been working on for quite some time and I wanted to show you the parts of it first because it's made of a CNC milled piece of aluminum this is the monitor actually itself and then there's a keyboard piece so it opens up like no laptop you've ever seen before the it's got a little kickstand that pops out the back and then you pull the keyboard off the front and you could lay the keyboard down in front and then you can also detach the keyboard and fold it half and half and use it as a wireless keyboard so over there you have the front of the mothership over here you have the back of the mothership you can see the massive cooling array they've done with the heat pipes feeding over to the CPU and GPU they created especially I see it's better for the SSD and overall this is just sort of a unique laptop that I've never really seen anything like it before so apart from the flexible setup with the moveable keyboard wireless factor and everything of course you can also plug in your own keyboard like with any laptop this is gonna have an eighth generation Intel Core i 9 processor in it it's not specified which one and a geforce r-tx 2080 the display itself is a 17.3 inch 144 hertz Full HD or 1080 display it's listed as IPS level which I imagine means it's got pretty decent color depth and it covers 80% of the DCI p3 color gamut as for memory you can have up to 64 gigs of DDR 4 you have up to 3 PCI Express storage devices 512 geeks each and they've done some crazy work with Intel to make sure that two of those have direct connect connectivity to the CPU and the third goes through the PCH that means you're actually getting crazy read and write speeds on your raid array here too next up we have Joe for scale this is the RG Strix XG 4 3 8q Asus always has very catchy names for their monitors but it's a 43 inch gaming monitor that they've been working on 3840 by 2160 so 4k resolution as well as 120 Hertz refresh rate so in sports AMD freesync - it's actually compliant with the display HDR 600 standard and features asus sonic master technology delivers incredible audio fidelity through - built in 10 watt speaker to connect that you have DisplayPort HDMI and USB 3.0 as well as a headphone jack it's a massive monitor and we don't know when it's gonna launch they said they're aiming for q2 we also have no idea how much this is gonna cost you Austin Evans us can you come over here okay wait we're doing our first this is the first official CES hog Evans guys everyone go subscribe to Austin's YouTube channel why would you do that that's a bad idea I don't know stay right here keep it locked for all the hottest latest the greatest this is a sizzle reel right here I don't even know I'm just guys just awkwardly stay at the camera and just until you know it gets weird kind of hungry I am too actually yeah dinner yet smash cut to knock here's another laptop this is actually an Asus car as far as the body goes so that's been out for a while the thing we're actually looking at here is the display and the display is just showing the display settings panel so it's not all that exciting to look at the point is it's a 240 Hertz display on a laptop 1920 by 1080 so it's a resolution that you could actually push a higher frame rate at and Asus just wanted to let us know they have this they're integrating it into laptops and they're probably going to be integrating it into more laptops they're planning to do a few different tiers 240 Hertz as well as 180 Hertz so you have a range depending on your preference and I'm imagining also price difference but there you go if you're excited about high frame rate gaming on a laptop Asus is probably gonna have you covered pretty soon we've moved over to the components side where it's actually not set up yet we're here pretty early but I wanted to actually pick this motherboard out for the first time this is the ROG Dominus extreme this is the new motherboard for Intel's LGA 3647 3647 socket Intel's got the 28 core 56 thread CPU that supposedly exists it actually exists now could I buy it could I buy it at retail right now probably not anyway there's supposed to be crazy high-end CPU from Intel that goes in here and which they launched at the end of 2018 but this is the motherboard for it so Intel supplying the CPU aside this motherboard that's absolutely insane and I have seen it before a couple times I want to actually pick it up because it probably weighs a good 20 pounds I'm gonna say but Nick fortunately was able to give us a quick rundown on what this thing's actually sporting alright this is our new ROG Dominus extreme motherboard for LGA 36:47 socket you can see it's a really heavy construction it's got some really serious heat sinks it's got a true 16 phase power design you can see the three different CPU power inputs at the top here on the outside of the RAM slots we have additional space for nvme SSDs through the dim dot two sockets so that's a card that we provide that you can add in two more MB an nvme SSDs per slot and they do get cooled if the heat sinks we have the four-way spacing on the PCIe slots supporting SLI and crossfire as well as all of the other goodies that you would expect including a screen on the top of the i/o shield cover here which we call our live dash panel which is customizable o-o LED screen and then you get your 10g internet you got a regular cell 1g Nick and basically all the USB connectivity that you want on top of that ever all the user so I get very excited about crazy overbuilt stuff like this we still have no word on when this will be available to like just go and buy I did ask how much this would cost when it's available and the answer unofficially is more than you could ever imagine a motherboard costing but that it would definitely be worth it so I'll need at least three of these and lastly over here in the corner is the best twenty atti that asus is planning on making this is the matrix it's currently lit up nice and pretty right now I'm just going to raw dog it and pull out of the slot so here it is triple slot card they are binning the GPUs that are going in here so top five percents in terms of performance and overclocked ability when it comes to the GTX 220 atti GPU that goes in there they got a nice saw backplate on here they have RGB lighting of course and then this has hybrid cooling in fact everything is integrated beneath this shroud here it's air-cooled and there is an all-in-one liquid cooler in here in fact the radiator you can kind of see if you look at it from the side extends along this cooling unit right here you can look at it and see some of the tubing for the pumps so the pumps right there has copper contact with the GPU itself you can kind of see up along here and according to Asus this is going to perform in the same ballpark range it's like an all-in-one 240 millimeter cooler attached to your graphics card but it's all here in one unit with the triple slot card so that's really cool design overall it's got gray going on it's got some reflective areas there too and then of course it does light up when you actually have it plugged in oh and this mirror part at the top has the ROG logo with kind of a 3d effect so you can look down into it almost forever but guys that is gonna wrap it up for my first video here actually in Las Vegas for CES 2019 I of course want to say a big thank you to my sponsors coolermaster Corsair deep cool and inter max stay tuned because I have a ton more coverage coming at you guys so hit the thumbs up subscribe all that good stuff I will make a playlist too and link that in the description thanks again for watching and we'll see you next time
