2015-10-24
hey guys it's me Elric and buddy the dog tyrunt echo to mourn why are we here today we'll check this out you guys are always asking for system build after system build so this time we've got a really killer one for you it's the Weapon X that's right the Weapon X system and it's $1,000 mini PC build that's really cool features a nice corsair case this thing's totally portable you can take it on the road with you anywhere and it's very cool-looking as well as being pretty simplistic in its overall design so with that said let's first check out the parts list check out the scores and then talk about the system at the end and see hey what do you guys think and what do we think and by the way we didn't really build this to be some competitive thing a friend of ours came to us and si said hey man I want to build a system I have a thousand bucks and I want to be complete didn't need a monitor obviously so actually the OS in clear as well in this build and he wants some that'd be portable so this is a system that we came up with I'm sure there's many people out there who's gonna say oh yeah you know I could dig around for six months and I can dig around PC parts and I could find a little better system that's all fine and well we didn't do that this was pretty much for fun we had a system for a friend we know you guys like the C system so hey this is it the Weapon X is born let's check that out so externally you guys can see this thing looks really nice man the Corsair graphite series 3d T is a really nice case it's painted white and so it's gonna go with many many things I personally think it looks really killer and the real iconic help the Weapon X is from the very front you guys can see that the fan kind of looks like you know that kind of little design yeah I'm not exactly but it's still cool and plus all the controls in this are very easy to operate you got some seeds like riding the front there are two USB 3.0 ports and you're on Twitch and all that stuff is all based right on the front of that Corsair okay so it's really nice and easy to get to and on the rear i/o you guys can see it's nice and fleshed out from the motherboard and by the way the motherboard is the gigabyte Intel H 81 Mini ITX motherboard this thing's really cool and for the CPU we're using the Intel Core i5 45 nine you know this CPU is not even really geared towards overclocking whatsoever we didn't really plan on overclocking our thing was really keep it as quiet and silent as possible and we succeeded in doing that now for the memory we used eight gigabytes of the Crucial Ballistix sport for the boot distance storage we have a SanDisk Ultra - this is a 480 gigabyte SSD the video card is some people over at PNY really good come if you guys don't know P&Y they make good stuff at a basic price it's usually also spaced off reference model stuff but they keep it solid we have a great warranty now this card today is the PNY geforce gtx 960 2 gigabyte accelerate elite overclocked card now this thing's made for gaming and for those people are doing 1080p it's a really solid card now powering all this is the n1 green me 650 watt power supply and I don't know if this particular ones in stock that if not at the end we'll give you guys a link to something different and powering the entire system we're using Windows 10 home now this is a $96 software pretty good they kept the budget within $1,000 but with all that said that's the system you guys can see it looks really good now let's check out the scores and let's see how it performs all right folks so there you have it the Weapon X and like I said from the very beginning we did this entire build for a friend of ours and it was for fun but I gotta say this system looks really cool it's simplistic its elegant and it's totally portable you can take a wherever you want and game on the go we're not quite on the Gogan list you know like you know get a power supply in your back that runs all the juice for the power supply and a monitor in front of your face which would be kind of killer remember those old guys in the old days you stuff like a portable band a one-man band you could be like a one man walking PC you know and as you walk it powers your little charger no I'm just kidding but you guys think the scores are pretty decent for the system like I said it's like a thousand dollars that's including the OS Windows 10 so all in all it's a pretty decent system it runs very quiet it runs cool it's efficient and for somebody who wants some that they can take totally on the road it's really really cool so please spare me the comments down below or I could have went to somewhere and built a cheaper system okay I give you credit you know really Harper maybe you could hats off but that's not we were trying to shoot for you guys always want to see systems we built the system for a friend of ours it's a system Hey so we brought to your ticket tomorrow we'll see you guys back here for more tech because blue fury system kind of lagging is having a little bit of issues because there was a whole bunch of different things I was trying to do inside of the new Windows 10 and I wasn't really getting all the results I wanted because well for one thing there's no DirectX roll 12 out yet and so I was hoping that more games that show up but that's a whole nother frickin ball of wax so anyways like usual every single one of these parts will be listed down below so if you do think the system's really cool you can recreate this for yourself and by the way there will be an alternate link for the power supply because the particular power supply that we use in this build I don't think is available at the moment for some reason they're out of stock under they're not doing something with it so we'll have a link to an alternate one down there or you could choose one for yourself because I'll be - the power supply anyone will work as long as it's got the right power requirement so peace out I'm Alaric this is buddy the dog the mascot we love you guys hope to see you guys sub here and we'll see you back here for more videos peace
