for those who have been waiting the brand new Alienware steam machine is here but the big question is is it out of this world let's check it out let's see so rap the bad anyways here's the box there's not much to it the specs are on the side of it you guys don't really care too much about it but I know you guys do care about what comes in the box so let's go ahead now I'll spin the little box around from the alien head and we shall pop the cap here right off the bat inside we get a little alien wear thing you know says alien wear how to hook it up and all that good stuff so that's that we'll just set that off to the side so first off in the box there is an HDMI cable always good you're gonna need that for going to your TV and all that good stuff a lot of people own these already at home but the very fact that it does come with one is pretty cool next up we've got the power cable and then beyond that we have the power brick itself nice little thin one looks like anything that you use on a laptop or anything else obviously plugs in the back of the unit pretty simple stuff so that's all the power cable stuff then from over on the other side we have the USB to micro USB connector inside over here I also believe there are some batteries so here are the batteries these are for obviously powering the controller now basically this cable right here plugs in to this little dongle this is your wireless receiver now big question people are gonna ask can you use more than one remote control and the cool thing about this is is hell yes you can you can use up to four different controllers that's right I don't think the Xbox one control right now is support it but the Xbox 360 one is fully functional so you have a couple wireless Xbox 360 controllers you'll be able to use them which means that four members of your family can all get together in the same room or you would do for your friends and you guys can all go at it and it's really cool stuff so I mean I don't know but most you guys me I have a lot of games that are already that I've bought an off steam and since the steam OS supports many many of those games I don't really think there's gonna be too much confusion with using your steam games you have now with the machine but if for some reason they don't you can always actually take your PC and hook it up and actually use your PC through that's right through this little Alienware thing so that's cool so this steam machine from alien where you can stream your PC through it and that's really cool so let me pop this out and then let me get to the remote control it's now a lot of people gonna say okay big deal or remote control what the heck you know what the heck it's a controller you know joint pad mouse pad controller where you want to call the or not a mouse pad I'm just kidding but you know it's a controller but the thing about this thing is it's totally geared to replace your keyboard it's actually very ergonomic as well I can tell you that putting in my hand right now it actually has a really really nice feel to it the toggle switches right here you have one giant controller on one side one spinning type on the other buttons here and actually buttons all the way underneath the controller so it's kind of crazy even on the bottom of the controller there's buttons so it's pretty badass and like I said this thing's meant to totally replace your keyboard and your mouse obviously so those people who are used to playing you know games and using a keyboard mouse they've tried to make it as economical as possible if you actually be able to use this and still be able to play your games I really can't wait to try it's really cool stuff actually four buttons right here on the front so four buttons here in the front to charge the controller you guys can see that the micro USB connections right there in front also if you're a person who's not quite familiar with like programming or remote control or programming your controller there'll be all kinds of people uploading their own profile so you'll be able to download those profiles yourself and instantly be up and gaming with a profile that will match your gaming style most people probably asking hey how do you put the batteries uh put the batteries is really simple there's a little click switch on the back you guys can see here that little pop that pops the backplate off very easily and then you just take your batteries and install them in there and then we put the backplate on now little pops kind of cool too I hope you guys heard that in the film because it actually does make a pop in fact let me see if I can get it up even more the microphone make a better pump for you guys heck yeah it pops just like a poptart baby alright moving on so now we get to the heart of the matter this steam machine itself alright I'll spare him that today so pull this bad boy out now obviously this thing is meant to sit on a shelf next year PlayStation 4 next all that stuff and it's really cool-looking I mean the internet actually folks is really not much bigger than my hand and it's about I don't know uh maybe about two inches thick so it's very very ergonomically spaced it's gonna sit pretty easily now we take a look at the front we considers a little logo then we've got the first of the USB ports there's two of them then we have the power on button which actually powers up blue when you turn on the little alien logo shows up the slides are really nothing they're pretty much plain and simple we get to the back we have a lot of different connections we have a connection to the far left for the power port then the first of two HDMI connectors then there's a Phillips digital connection for your audio a LAN cable N and then another two USB ports those who are wondering if the second HDMI port is for its for daisy-chaining another device into the steam machine things such as your cable box or your PC and this way you never have to leave the steam environment now I know one question that all you guys out there who the PC master-race you guys are going okay man how upgradeable actually is the Alienware steam machine well inside this thing you've got the latest Intel technology so it's got the latest Intel motherboard that you can upgrade to any of the CPUs that are currently available on the market so if you want to use the latest i7 you can stick that bad boy inside of here now currently there's 8 gigabytes of memory haven't seen anything that says you can upgrade that comes with a one terabyte 2.5 inch drive but you can upgrade that either to an SSD you another HDD so it's pretty upgradeable video card however is soldered unfortunately to the board and it's based off something like a gtx 680 or 860m I believe so I think it's a gtx 860m is currently what it's supposed to be there's no actual real technical name for that but we're in the briefing that's what they said it was like this it was like having a 2 gigabyte gtx 860m so for you guys out there winning well what exactly is it well look at that and that's what it is so that's how gradable this little bad boy is now I know some people are out there gonna say well it doesn't have wireless connectivity well to be honestly know they didn't even bother wasting their time with that whatsoever because action the people over there at valve said the best connection is a solid landline wired connection so therefore they ignored that feature all together so right out of the gate as soon as you buy the Alienware steam machine you get $200 in free games it's like for game pilots it's like payday 2 there's a few others you guys will want to check those out but they're all free so if you've never even done anything with steam and don't have any account whatsoever as soon as you buy this all you have to do is go start an account and you get those free games now real quick before I bounce out of here there will be great news for a one lucky

steam machine alright folks so there you guys have it the brand new Alienware steam machine coming into market at five hundred and forty-nine dollars so the big question is though do you guys out there is like PC enthusiasts do you guys feel this is like a worthy product with an i3 processor that 860m for this GPU eight gigabytes of RAM the one terabyte hard drive all in this little tiny steam package because I mean it's a little bit pricey but the really cool things about it is the way that you can program that total remote control man so that controller is so cool that you can map it to anything that you want like a keyboard and in fact this entire entire Alienware steam machine is pretty much they said is pretty much a PC it's not a PC replacement though it's like an addition it's kind of somewhere kind of ugly kind of almost a hybrid type of thing it's in between you know like having a ps4 or an Xbox but it's also you know its own because it's a PC like I said you can update most of the stuff in it you cannot upgrade the graphics card whatsoever the graphics card in it like I said it's an 860m pretty much that's what they said it was that's not upgradable but you can put it to the latest CPU you can put a bigger hard drive in it you know I believe a gigabytes of memory that seems do where it's locked out about singing where to upgrade the memory right now maybe you if I'm wrong there I guess we should I'll find out as we continue setting this thing up but I'm Network you guys been watching tikka tomorrow and by the way this OS is still beta I believe until November 11 so after that it's gonna come you know it'll change it'll be a lot more stuff out there but with 1500 titles right now that are all supported by the steam OS that's quite a lot of stuff and being that it's let you know it's gonna be very very stable and it's gonna be very intuitive just the people to use so if you're like a gamer out there you like console stuff but you like also the ability to have a PC hmm feeling where steam machine may not be out of this world but it's still something cool that you want to check out although the information down the bullet like button so if you guys
