Island by the Sea filled with volcanoes and it's beautiful beautiful like this Japanese workstation PC with its bone White Steel Chassy hot swap hard drive drawer and built-in GPU stabilizer such elegance and Grace could only come from a well-known gaming system manufacturer like Epson n sure they used to make PCS I mean who could forget such Classics as the action note Apex or Geneva but Epson stopped building personal computers back in 1996 when their celebrity spokesman is still getting confused for Sinbad so how is it that in 2023 I am standing next to this brand new Epson desktop it seems that while Epson does make all the things that we know them for here in the West in their home country they are all over the road there's not only Epson laptops and desktops but also Epson watches accounting software and even anime all of that stuff is there and this is here and this raises a lot of questions like is it any good does it refuse to work when the Cen tank runs dry and with PC gaming on the Ryzen Japan can it game oh and also who's our sponsor build Redux build Redux builds fully customizable gaming PCs suitable for any budget pick your favorite games and see how they perform with the online pc Builder it's so easy head to the link below and create your new rig today right out of the gate the included keyboard Mouse are nothing special in true Epson fashion it includes laser printing of course they're referring to the laser printing on the keycaps which includes not only Roman characters but also what I assume are Japanese ones I don't know I don't read Japanese what I do read is this fantastic label on the mouse which is the worst thing I've ever seen this is the SM 923 from light on that's the whole review which is fine because the main star of the show is the Epson endeavor Pro which is kind of like saying Acer Aspire or ASUS R OG given that they've been using this name so long so the specific model we're looking at is just on this little nondescript sticker right here the first thing that stands out to me about which is the rigidity of the chassis I don't think I've seen anything like this in the last 15 years sure it's not made of the you know latest trendy materials like aluminum but dang it this thing is built like a freaking tank that's not the only thing that reminds me of 15 years ago though check this out 5 and 1/4 in Bays not one but two and it gets even better a 3 and 1/2 in Bay are you kidding me it has a lock for the power switch this is how my parents kept me from gaming well it's how they thought they kept me from gaming I actually had a key for it everything about this design is so retro I wouldn't even expect to find USB 3 ports on the front of it and yet here we are how many no shut up it has an actual optical drive in it can't believe I paid real money for an optical drive in 2023 did we buy this oh yeah of course we did oh good and we imported it but in Japan that might not seem that outlandish and there are a couple of reasons for this Japan made headlines recently for their efforts to finally phase out floppy discs in an effort to reduce bureaucratic waste so as a machine that can be used for business or a workstation for game development for example this could easily find its way into to an office that still keeps a lot of data on disk or even worse disette older home users with dis based backups would also find it useful for the same reason and even for those without backups Optical drives may still have some Allure as video rental stores are not uncommon there Geo a chain of video rental stores had nearly a thousand locations at the end of 2022 when you consider that one in five apartments in Tokyo are less than 200 square ft and the average house is less than half the size of its American counterpart it's not unreasonable to conclude that there are a lot of people who could have an entertainment center or a desktop PC but not both so with an optical drive in your PC even if you don't have an entertainment center you can still watch the latest Blockbuster videos you picked up on a two-day rental from the local Geo half expecting to find PS2 p no not so much okay about as sophisticated as NC was in terms of branding of individual machines probably the the most interesting thing back here is this who There She Goes uh not much to write home about in terms of cable management there Epson that actually was our fault oh that's our fault yeah yeah it was cable managed just fine oh did they wrap the CPU fan around this eight pin connector because in shipping if this gets jostled around it can pull out that connector so that's a bad idea the power supply is a 650 W non-modular unit from Delta with a single 120 mm cooling fan the CPU is a ryzen 5600x but can be configured with up to a 5950 X very highend case fan seems to use a bit of an unusual mount comes to us courtesy of mania mitsumi fun fact mitsumi who later merged with Mania to create its current form was the company that made the controllers for the NES the SNES and several others this fan appears to be a very similar 120x 38 mm fan like you would find in many older Dell Opti units but with just the standard three pin power connector instead of Dell's non-standard 5 Pin these thicker fans are great for applications where High static pressure is necessary like against radiators or restrictive fan grills not that this is a particularly restrictive drill what I want to take a closer look at here is our GPU and more importantly our GPU support bracket these were common place in Server Chassis back in the late '90s and early 2000s but have made their way out of fashion some in spite of the fact that gpus have gotten heavier and heavier as the years have gone by you'll still find these in tier one systems or Puget systems for example manufactures their own out of laser cut acrylic but this is really robust I would actually be confident putting a modern heavy GPU in this thing knowing that it is not going to come loose in shipping this is great I guess we'll find out how well it works when we upgrade our GPU after because as you guys can see I didn't exactly go with a top speec gaming GPU of the Box don't touch I love that a the times it matters when it's spinning you won't be able to read it anyway and even if you could I suspect many people in Japan wouldn't read English like it should probably be in Japanese right I could be wrong this is a gt130 which is 5 years old and not a good GPU as we discussed in our surprisingly recent review of it but it's not the only GPU that the Endeavor Pro can be equipped with in fact it can be ordered with up to a 3080 TI or an A45 00 workstation card for professional workloads but rather than pay a huge markup we figured we would just swap in a more powerful GPU on this side of the Pacific fun fact by the way epson's configurator is pretty rudimentary if you select a 3080 TI it won't automatically upgrade you to the th000 watt power supply option a 650 W unit should handle this card but I would strongly recommend the th000 watt unit if you want to be safer in the long run yeah what you're going to do well this how's this going to fit in there though because we're going to move these up and down oh wish me luck huh good luck to myself now that's weird last time I check Epson also doesn't make motherboards how suspicious my first thought was they just put a sticker on there but that's not actually what happened it appears to have been silk screened on at the same Factory that did all the other printing on the motherboard I mean this is clearly an ASUS Prime b550 plus motherboard but it's been rebranded for Epson curiously the model number number has also been changed are they trying to make it harder to track down the original part number for some reason but then if they're doing that why go to the extra steps of rebranding it if they aren't also going to change the lettering on the chipset heat sink which still says Prime series on it hey PA a drive motherboard screws how about that we had so many requests for PA a drive bits for the LT screwdriver presumably from people in Japan I guess can confirm Philips head works fine is maybe the answer lies with the Intel version of this Tower available in a stylish blue rather than red so you can show off your preferred processor brand is the motherboard from that an ASUS Rebrand as well unfortunately we don't have that one on hand I didn't feel like paying another $2,000 plus shipping to get one oh that one's 4,000 4,000 y anyway what we did manage to do is track down a review of it that includes a plethora of pictures at pc. watch. impress. co.jp it's an x299 chipset system with eight r R slots a PCI connector and two PS2 ports on the io it's also screen printed blue something that Gigabyte might do but there's no x299 motherboard on the market that we can find that matches the shape IO and the inclusion of a legacy PCI slot to say nothing of the color so what the heck is going on here well if you've been building PCS for a while the model numbers on these motherboards might seem familiar not the numbers themselves but the font in the 2000s nearly every ASUS motherboard featured this font slowly over the course of the late 2000s and early 2010s it was phased out of ASUS's retail boards this could be attributed to a corporate restructuring that ASUS went through sometime in 20172 2008 the organization split with ASUS's branded offerings remaining with ASUS while their divisions for OEM parts and case fabrication were spun off to a separate company called pegatron ironically Megatron would later end up buying ASRock which itself was also spun off from isus but back in 2002 very inbred these Dell motherboards and these HP motherboards feature the pegatron font and are as far as we can tell made by pegatron it's probably not a stretch then to assume that this case and any other parts not branded Epson are also pegatron if you're wondering whether ASUS is aware that pegatron is rebranding their retail motherboard designs uh we email mailed them to ask about how the devil all of that works and at the time of filming we were still awaiting a response though awaiting is a word that I'm using pretty Loosely here because I'm not expecting them to comment on it every time I've asked them about the history with ASRock for example they've just kind of gone let me get back to you and then never gotten back to me it's pretty safe to assume that they do know about all of this though given that they have drivers on their website for this model number albeit with very little additional information ooh look at that she's level boys oh I like it laugh at the Antiquated approach all you want but that GPU is not flipping going anywhere and I don't even have the PCI screws in yet look at this I love it this is not a cheap chassis in spite of the fact that it kind of looks like crap and it's not painted black and doesn't have any RGB this is like solid never deviate from your principles here Epson this is awesome so level I could eat my dinner on the back of this 38 TI cook it first too while we're in here I'm going to upgrade it with some more memory we ordered the bare minimum 8 gigs because I also didn't feel like paying their markup for system memory so let's go ahead and throw some more RAM in hey not bad huh it's not particular hey no I don't want that want these I no I want to use these the I these came with my gaming PC yeah you ever you ever tried to use a Japanese uh keyboard with uh with a US layout no oh my God the space bar is fragmented oh the space no the space bar is Tiny the rest of those are are keys for other things no I know no I know I just mean it's in three pieces okay I have a short shift which I can tolerate I hate this enter that space bar though wow uh can I even yeah that's kind of yeah that's kind of where I would hit it most of the time no I should be okay okay okay just make sure that you change the keyboard layout I mean it's not quality that's for sure you don't think you did that when you bent it earlier I mean it's possible but I shouldn't have been able to do that oh hold on oh yeah look at that we bent it back right I realized we never talked about the hot swap Drive bays in the front these are awesome uh each of them is just wired up individually to the motherboard so you don't need a complicated back plane or uh Port multiplier or anything like that you just load a drive onto one of these pop it in I wouldn't say that these were popular in the mid 2000s over here but they were certainly more broadly available and it was mostly due to cost that case manufacturers didn't Implement them where's my start menu at hello buddy uh is this their OS like did they they load this on yes okay did they remove my bloody start menu or like no that's supposed to have a start menu it had a start menu when I left the other building okay cool yeah let's just give it the old the old one two here for a stupid gamery case it's not that bad it's kind of you know classy and I have some hope that that thick 120 mil fan is going to manage to remove the heat from this GPU there's an intake right next to the GPU's cooling fans that I think might help wait that's the boot hard drive yeah yeah we were trying to save costs this doesn't have a bloody SSD why is Arlo here oh my God you guys are doing the wag hoodie photo shoot hey there we go it booted up just fine this time also I am not having any trouble with this keyboard I will have you know yet where's my ti you might also have some keys not line up with what they say on the keyboard if you haven't change the keyboard over to Japanese layout no no I got this i got this uh I don't know it just says standard keyboard okay good luck bottom right corner beside the uh clock no no I'm good I got this you only have F1 wait hold on hold on this is the part we're missing oh give me one second oh we're missing something yeah we we always put our Steam games on drive drive and there's a no type no front type c that didn't even occur to me yeah that's not the most modern thing oh balls to be clear this is a fairly small problem but a problem nonetheless it is 2023 and I just bought a computer with a mechanical boot Drive what it's better than the craptastic ones that we got with the sports team branded mice like I mean I managed to do that I don't even know what the objective is right now oh this is just team death oh my God it's 15 to nothing right now this is not quiet it's that big back fan that chunky fan in the back is definitely contributing 71° on the GPU though 63° on the CPU while it's not the quietest system I've ever encountered it's not ridiculously loud either and the temps are well under control wow you could warm your hands on this maybe toast some marshmallows I mean with all the exhaust focused in one place and that's without even the highest end CPU that we could configure not that you can configure anything at the moment as of filming this unit was actually discontinued 2 days ago but that doesn't mean that Epson is done updating their desktop offerings it looks like they might be gearing up to revamp their AMD machines probably with ryzon 7000 we're going to have a link down below but please note they only ship domestically how much do they ship domestically well at least enough to justify a custom motherboard I guess and PC gaming in Japan has been going through a bit of a boom recently doubling in size in Just 4 years by some accounts also our machine handled a high-end GPU like a champ even with that 650 W power supply our 3080 made it through a stress test in our environmental chamber at 20° C room temperature with no no notable thermal issues now that doesn't mean I'm necessarily recommending that you buy one of these the AMD version like this one starts at$ 226,000 Yen or roughly $1,675 with specs that are not great as for the Intel one it starts at 360,000 Yen or roughly $26.75 also not great but PC parts have typically been more expensive in Japan and Epson does offer on-site repair for very cheap like like really cheap as low as $34 a year for up to 6 years you have to be within Japan's five most populated Islands but that covers 99% of the population just like 99% of our videos end in a segue to our sponsor Squarespace it's 2023 and your brand or business needs an online presence I don't make the rules building your own website may seem
