00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.960
the uh of the liquid cooling hybrid solution that's uh that you can hook up

00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:11.120
on these boards. This is the allnew Windforce cooler that

00:00:09.040 --> 00:00:14.960
takes advantage of a composite of a couple of different heatpipe

00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:20.960
technologies. So, it has like a textured inside as well as micro grooves that

00:00:17.840 --> 00:00:23.439
allow it to more easily take the cooled

00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:26.480
liquid and then move it back to the GPU where it needs to be heated up and then

00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:30.080
evaporated again. I mean, that's the basic principle of how heat pipes work.

00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:33.600
What this allows Gigabyte to do is between those high performance heat

00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:36.719
pipes. Check how thick those ones are. Between those high performance heat

00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:42.719
pipes and the overall mass of the cooler, they are able to build coolers

00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:46.079
for the GTX 770, 780, and Titan that are

00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:49.680
capable of dissipating 450 watts within

00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:51.520
what is still a two slot profile. Now,

00:00:49.680 --> 00:00:56.160
hold on a minute. Is that what what's going on here? Is that an aftermarket

00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:57.600
cooled Titan? 6 gig 6 gigs of memory

00:00:56.160 --> 00:01:02.559
aftermarket cooling. No one's allowed to do that. Gigabyte is going to be

00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:04.159
releasing this as a bundle. So, you'll

00:01:02.559 --> 00:01:08.159
actually get it with a stock Titan cooler on it, instructions, and a

00:01:06.320 --> 00:01:12.640
Windforce cooler so that you can swap out the cooler on your own, giving you

00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:17.520
the advantages that come with better GPU cooling, particularly with GPU Boost

00:01:15.119 --> 00:01:24.159
2.0. Now, GPU Boost 2.0 0 allows you to not only set up your overclocking

00:01:19.600 --> 00:01:26.080
profiles by power as well as by um clock

00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:29.759
speed and voltage, but also by temperature. So, when you have a lower

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:33.200
temperature on your card, you are going to actually legitimately get better

00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:37.119
performance whether you're a hardcore overclocker or not, which hasn't been

00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:40.320
true necessarily with other graphics cards in the past. Now, they've got a

00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:43.439
practical demonstration of this, which I thought was pretty cool. The maximum

00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:49.520
temperature, well, recommended temperature from NVIDIA for a GK 1110 or

00:01:45.759 --> 00:01:51.119
GK 104 is around 95°. So, they've got a

00:01:49.520 --> 00:01:55.200
variety of different heat loads that you can apply to this elaborate setup here

00:01:53.360 --> 00:02:00.159
with the Windforce cooler on it. You can see our ambient temperature here, which

00:01:56.880 --> 00:02:02.320
is about 30 31°. You can see the heat

00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:05.360
load being applied to the Windforce cooler. And then you can see right here

00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:09.840
the temperature that it maintains the card at. So the TDPs of these cards are

00:02:07.520 --> 00:02:14.480
only actually 250 watts, but even applying in excess of 400 watts to this

00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:19.200
cooler, we are not breaking the highest we've seen it is around 80° and change a

00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:23.760
little above that. And that's in 31° ambience. Moving right along to gaming

00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:29.280
peripherals. This is where Diesel started geeking out. So this right here

00:02:26.959 --> 00:02:31.680
is the IVA uranium, which does a number of different things. So first of all

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:36.800
here, actually, I'll get our lovely model to demo it in just a second. I'm going to steal it first. Sorry about

00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:41.680
that. On the bottom, check this out. I love this. My old MX700 had two AA

00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:46.720
batteries on the bottom. What's the advantage of AA? Well, number one, they're everywhere, so you never have to

00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:49.840
worry about not having a charge when something bad happens and your batteries

00:02:48.640 --> 00:02:54.239
die. Number two is they're high capacity. This thing runs for 50 hours

00:02:51.760 --> 00:02:58.560
continuously. So, if you actually manage to run out of battery life with this

00:02:56.239 --> 00:03:03.280
mouse in between charges, then you probably should go to sleep anyhow. But

00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:06.879
that's not it. So, it's wireless, but I would love for you to come in here.

00:03:04.480 --> 00:03:10.640
Sorry. And demo. What is special about this particular wireless implementation?

00:03:08.480 --> 00:03:15.040
So, how do you charge it? Okay, you charge it just with a simple micro USB.

00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:18.319
Cool thing about that is micro USB charges the mouse while you're using it.

00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:21.760
Or if you don't need to charge the mouse at the time you've got a micro USB handy

00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:25.760
on your desk, you can use it to charge your phone. Next up, okay, so the

00:03:23.920 --> 00:03:30.319
wireless implementation. In the past, wireless mice have had problems with um

00:03:28.720 --> 00:03:33.360
particular not necessarily with, you know, left click doesn't register or

00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:39.200
whatever else like that, but particularly with the execution of macros. So, instead of putting the macro

00:03:37.440 --> 00:03:43.120
memory onto the mouse, which by the way is also one fewer thing to power on the

00:03:41.519 --> 00:03:46.799
mouse, so that's where you get that extended battery life. Macro memory has

00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:50.560
now been integrated here. So, show me how you can switch between the variety

00:03:48.239 --> 00:03:53.920
of different profiles that can be stored on the base station. Another advantage

00:03:52.640 --> 00:03:57.760
of the base station, while you guys watch the interface here, is the fact

00:03:55.680 --> 00:04:01.120
that it sits very close to the mouse as opposed to being plugged into the front

00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:05.599
of your tower or into the back of your case, meaning it's less likely to have

00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:09.840
any interference. And because it's closer, you're going to have faster data

00:04:07.200 --> 00:04:13.439
transmission. It uses a 6500 DPI twin eye laser sensor, and you can set up, I

00:04:11.920 --> 00:04:20.560
believe it's up to five profiles. Is that correct? Yep. I'm getting the Okay.

00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:22.160
Now, we've got um the AIA Osmium

00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:25.040
keyboard. So, this has been updated. You've got five different profiles here.

00:04:23.840 --> 00:04:30.960
And what's cool is you've got a multiolor light here, so you can tell which profile you're in. You've also got

00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:34.560
dedicated scroll wheels for brightness, which has very fine granularity to the

00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:38.639
adjustments that you can make. You can click it and turn it off. So, it's actually it's actually just a mouse

00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:41.520
wheel. Very, very cool. As well as a volume wheel, media keys that are

00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:46.320
accessible with a function functionality, and check this out. We

00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:49.120
are not limited to just one key switch type anymore. These are Cherry MX

00:04:47.840 --> 00:04:55.280
Browns. If you guys have been watching Linus Tech Tips a long time, you'll know these are my personal favorite key

00:04:52.320 --> 00:04:59.600
switches. So, I am more than thrilled to see that being applied to Gigabytes

00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:03.759
keyboard lineup. Also, it has a nice wide wrist rest. And personally, I don't

00:05:01.520 --> 00:05:08.479
really like it, but my wife refuses to use anything but her Steel Series 7G

00:05:05.919 --> 00:05:12.320
because of the large angled wrist rest. So for people out there who want that,

00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:16.639
now you have another option that isn't Cherry MX Black with what is quite

00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:20.400
frankly a fairly dated feature set that doesn't include LED backlighting or any

00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:23.600
of those kinds of bells and whistles. Don't miss any of our Computex 2013
