1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:07,279
so as a followup to our video showing some of the top gaming desktops that we

2
00:00:04,279 --> 00:00:09,960
saw at CES 2015 we wanted to do a top

3
00:00:07,279 --> 00:00:15,200
gaming notebooks one because actually I feel like some of the amazing notebook

4
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:20,080
technology that we saw this week is even better than what we saw on the desktop

5
00:00:17,080 --> 00:00:21,720
so uh without further Ado here we go

6
00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:27,039
could this be one of our top gaming laptops of CES this year is this even a

7
00:00:24,359 --> 00:00:36,040
laptop I mean this thing weighs what 4.7 kg it's got a massive 18.4 in 1080p

8
00:00:30,679 --> 00:00:38,320
display and it is big like oh look at it

9
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:44,160
it is thick look at this thing this is the gt80 Titan SLI and this is a whole

10
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:51,280
new concept as far as gaming laptops are concerned it's got a core i7 4980 HQ

11
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:53,640
processor dual NVIDIA GTX 980m 8 gig

12
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:58,120
graphics cards did I mention that MSI is committing to offer mxm upgrade modules

13
00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:03,039
for at least two generations that are compatible with this as well as a

14
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:05,519
cooling solution it supports up to four

15
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:11,799
DDR3 modules for a total of 32 gigs of RAM up to four m.2 SATA ssds in raid

16
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:15,960
zero in addition to a 2 and 1 half inch hard drive it's got their killer

17
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:22,079
networking so it's got 2x2 AC as well as wired networking it's got a 1080p webcam

18
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:25,560
but the real killer app for this one is aside from the upgradeability so you can

19
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:31,040
actually access all those components I was talking about before the optical

20
00:01:27,119 --> 00:01:32,479
drive for m. MSA m.2 as well as two of

21
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:36,880
the dims the other two are on the bottom and the 2 and 1/2 in Drive aside from

22
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:41,880
upgradeability it is this guy right here this is a Cherry MX Brown mechanical

23
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:47,119
gaming keyboard built right into this notebook and what is a true Marvel about

24
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:51,719
this is it actually maintains the same profile off the desk as a regular

25
00:01:49,479 --> 00:01:55,280
mechanical gaming keyboard is this the most practical thing ever would it make

26
00:01:53,600 --> 00:02:00,360
more sense to carry around a mechanical gaming keyboard with you whenever you had to travel with your system I will

27
00:01:58,159 --> 00:02:05,600
leave that up to you guys but is definitely a oneof a-kind piece of

28
00:02:03,039 --> 00:02:10,679
machinery and something that will appeal to some folks out there I know this for

29
00:02:07,759 --> 00:02:14,959
a fact continuing our tour of the top gaming notebooks of CES 2015 out of

30
00:02:12,920 --> 00:02:20,120
everything that Gigabyte had on display this is the one that really stood out to

31
00:02:17,319 --> 00:02:25,280
me not only does it have a core i7 quad core processor and it's you know got

32
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:30,840
this extremely slim form factor great mix of IO with four USB 3 ports dual

33
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:34,640
HDMI mini DisplayPort out it's got a glass touch pad it's got actually a

34
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:39,840
fairly nice chicklet keyboard with a full number pad and macro Keys over on

35
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:46,879
the left it's got a 3K or optionally a 4K nonn that's an EXO display on top of

36
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:52,200
all that stuff .9 in thin it's got

37
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:54,920
GeForce GTX 965m graphics cards in SLI

38
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:58,400
yes this is a dual GPU SLI notebook in an extremely slim form factor and it

39
00:02:57,159 --> 00:03:03,920
packs a bunch of other stuff in there too instead of compromising the way that we see thin and light gaming notebooks

40
00:03:01,519 --> 00:03:08,640
do a lot of the time it doesn't have any limitations in terms of storage you've

41
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:10,680
got up to three m.2 ssds supported along

42
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:15,640
with a 2 and 1 half in hard drive and it doesn't compromise on memory with up to

43
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:20,519
four DDR3 sodium supported for a total of 32 gigs of RAM our next notebook is a

44
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:26,040
little bit of an unusual one yeah it features a core i7 quad core 4870hq

45
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:32,159
processor yeah it's got 16 gigs of RAM it can hold up to two ssds and raid zero

46
00:03:28,799 --> 00:03:35,640
13.3 in IPS display backlit chicklet

47
00:03:32,159 --> 00:03:37,920
keyboard beautiful super slim

48
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:43,560
lightweight design and Iris Graphics well hold on a second

49
00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:47,879
lonus that doesn't sound like much of a gaming notebook well the real magic for

50
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:52,959
this one happens in the box underneath it at the back of this notebook is a

51
00:03:50,120 --> 00:04:00,920
little flap that covers a full PCI Express 16x slot PCI Express 16x gen 3

52
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:03,480
so this is desktop class connectivity to

53
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:09,120
this box down below that not only has additional USB as well as killer

54
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:15,159
Ethernet and audio ports but also a cooling fan a 450 W power supply and

55
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:17,040
room for any desktop graphics card you

56
00:04:15,159 --> 00:04:22,639
could pretty much want MSI is saying you'll have support for any MSI GPU and

57
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:28,400
any reference GPU from either NVIDIA or AMD and all you got to do is power down

58
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,759
the system slide it into this locking

59
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:35,800
dock right here power power it back up and boom you are outputting from what

60
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:37,360
they've got in here is a GTX uh 980 if I

61
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:41,680
recall correctly you output to an external Monitor and you are having a

62
00:04:39,479 --> 00:04:45,360
desktop grade gaming experience except when you want to pick it up and be on

63
00:04:43,639 --> 00:04:48,960
the go and then you have a super lightweight

64
00:04:46,759 --> 00:04:54,440
notebook did I mention it's called The gs30 Shadow I don't think I did but

65
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:58,759
that's what it's called so we found our next sick gaming notebook in the Intel

66
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:03,160
performance notebook Suite I mean imagine finding some high performance

67
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:08,240
notebooks there this is the HP Omen 15 so it's a 15.6 in 1080P model with a

68
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:12,320
full 10-point multi-touch touch screen for me personally that is something that

69
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:19,120
I do really appreciate it's got a core I 7471 HQ it's got a GeForce GTX 86m SSD

70
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:24,720
uh I think this particular one has 8 gigs of RAM and okay so those specs

71
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:31,360
don't sound really that amazing for me this one is more about the look aside

72
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:33,560
from the very stri in material choices

73
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:38,759
that HP has made for this one with the textured back cover as well as the sort

74
00:05:36,639 --> 00:05:42,840
of the angular shape to the way that it sits on the desk you've actually got

75
00:05:41,199 --> 00:05:46,960
this is kind of cool lights that illuminate in the surprisingly loud and

76
00:05:45,319 --> 00:05:52,479
clear speakers along the right hand edges you've got a red back lit keyboard

77
00:05:49,199 --> 00:05:54,960
a super like Mega wide touchpad that is

78
00:05:52,479 --> 00:05:59,759
incredibly pleasing to use and then on the bottom itself let's go ahead and

79
00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:04,440
close this bad boy you've got basically an entirely perforated surface along the

80
00:06:02,840 --> 00:06:08,280
entire back of the notebook that keeps it nice and cool it's got a rubber ring

81
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,840
around the bottom so it doesn't slip around when you're using it on your desk

82
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:15,919
and this is actually something that I appreciate more than maybe even more

83
00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:21,280
than I should so there's two rear exhaust vents at the back in addition to

84
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:23,319
power in four USB 3.0 ports HDMI out

85
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:29,960
mini DisplayPort out and a headphone jack I really like having IO at the rear

86
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:34,160
I find so many notebook makers put iio on the right especially USB ports like

87
00:06:32,639 --> 00:06:37,560
if they're only on the right then I find they get in the way of your mouse hand

88
00:06:35,759 --> 00:06:41,759
if you want to actually game with the thing by plugging in a mouse for HP the

89
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:46,479
only thing on the right hand side is an SD card slot and other than that it is

90
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:50,520
completely clean around the outside of the notebook now this little number

91
00:06:48,759 --> 00:06:56,440
right here is a pretty normal looking gaming notebook it's got a 15.6 in 1080P

92
00:06:53,479 --> 00:07:04,160
display it's got an Intel Core i7 4710 HQ processor that's a quad core it's got

93
00:06:59,759 --> 00:07:06,360
a GeForce GTX 970m or an R9 295 XM in

94
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:11,160
there for the GPU up to 16 gigs of RAM an m.2 SSD for storage along with a 2

95
00:07:08,759 --> 00:07:14,840
and 1 half in hard drive and a pretty typical I/O configuration some lighting

96
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:20,319
effects it's not like hyper thin or anything like that

97
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:22,879
say at the back that's not a standard

98
00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:27,080
looking IO thing that is a port for alien wear's Graphics amplifier the box

99
00:07:25,599 --> 00:07:30,440
that's sitting right next to it so what this does is it's a proprietary

100
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:36,000
connector that that features a PCI Express gen 3 Forex link as well as some

101
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:41,199
other Tom Foolery to give your notebook both expanded iio so additional USB

102
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:49,240
ports I'm pretty sure that's the only thing they got back here yeah some additional USB ports as well as a full

103
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:51,960
PCI Express 16x graphics card slot

104
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:55,680
inside the box that is powered by a 375 wat power supply so the demo they're

105
00:07:53,960 --> 00:08:02,879
running right here actually has this notebook running Shadow of Mordor with a

106
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:05,599
GTX 9 80 desktop graphics card powering

107
00:08:02,879 --> 00:08:10,560
this 4K display and running through the system so the system is only acting as

108
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:15,159
CPU memory storage actually everything except the GPU where this one takes over

109
00:08:13,199 --> 00:08:20,440
for whatever mobile GPU would normally have in the laptop well I hope you guys

110
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:24,440
