WEBVTT 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:04.839 all right guys welcome to the ASUS Suite we'll be checking out motherboards here 00:00:03.360 --> 00:00:09.040 we've got a white one a multicolored one and a small one let's go thank you to 00:00:06.919 --> 00:00:12.400 Squarespace for bringing us to CES 2016 this year check out a link to them in 00:00:10.360 --> 00:00:16.600 the video description down below so like I said starting with the white one this 00:00:14.200 --> 00:00:21.720 is the Sabertooth uh Zed 170s or sa Branco or whatever you want 00:00:19.240 --> 00:00:25.480 to call it it looks pretty sick and that's kind of honestly the biggest 00:00:23.680 --> 00:00:29.080 Point here unlike a lot of other sabertooths it doesn't have the armor on 00:00:27.439 --> 00:00:33.160 the front or the armor on the back or any of that kind of stuff there's a 00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:37.600 minor rumor that there might be the ability to buy those as an add-on 00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:41.559 afterwards but that's totally not a thing as of right now so don't don't 00:00:39.440 --> 00:00:45.559 Bank on that I think it looks super cool in terms of headers and plugins and all 00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:50.320 that kind of stuff it has a boatload of fan headers I think it's 11 in total 00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:54.960 there's one there's four across the top three on the right hand side uh three on 00:00:53.600 --> 00:01:00.519 the bottom and then one in the middle of the board for a grand total of enough fans to literally take your entire 00:00:58.120 --> 00:01:02.920 computer off the ground if you want if you're tired of hoverboards you can have 00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:07.439 a hover computer I don't know it's ridiculous on the I/O on the back 00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:11.920 there's a bank of four USB 2.0 ports another USB 2.0 Port just to the right 00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:19.240 of that a BIOS reset switch DisplayPort HDMI dual USB 3.0 a gigb Ethernet port a 00:01:15.960 --> 00:01:21.840 USB 3.1 port a USB type-c port and then 00:01:19.240 --> 00:01:26.200 a bank of audio plugins next up we've got the multicolored crazy shiny one 00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:30.400 which is the Maximus 8 formula whose tagline is see the light we'll figure 00:01:28.479 --> 00:01:33.720 out why in a moment first off they've got some cool stuff like high 00:01:31.759 --> 00:01:37.880 performance water blocks co-designed by EK water blocks under these little 00:01:35.240 --> 00:01:41.680 rubbery grommets up here and you're don't worry you don't have to use those 00:01:39.479 --> 00:01:45.680 your computer will function just great without them now in terms of I/O on the 00:01:44.240 --> 00:01:53.000 back I want to cover this real fast because it's absolutely insane they have 00:01:48.119 --> 00:01:54.799 2x2 802.11 AC M mimo so multi-user mimo 00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:59.439 Wi-Fi through these two antenna ports right here you've got a cosos clear 00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:07.520 you've got BIOS reset HDMI DisplayPort quad USB 3.0 gbit uh land USB 3.1 00:02:04.320 --> 00:02:10.520 standard a connector or USB 3.1 type- C 00:02:07.520 --> 00:02:12.879 connector a PS2 Port which while some of 00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:18.280 you might think that's funny I actually appreciate so whatever man uh two more 00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:22.200 USB 3.0 ports and then a bank of audio ports now I know I glossed over some 00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:26.400 things but the main important thing about this is the new lighting stuff so 00:02:24.440 --> 00:02:30.000 there's three lighting zones there's one here one more in the middle and one up 00:02:28.120 --> 00:02:34.640 there this area is not technically a lighting Zone it's always going to stay 00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:36.599 white just so you guys know but another 00:02:34.640 --> 00:02:40.720 cool thing is down at the bottom there's this white little header which is going 00:02:38.720 --> 00:02:46.680 to enable you to plug in a lighting strip and then use their Rog Aura 00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:50.959 lighting software to control that lighting strip and all the RGB Lighting 00:02:49.040 --> 00:02:54.560 on the board so they're all in sync which is super cool because you could 00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:57.760 then Bridge off of that lighting strip and make it even longer or go all around 00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:04.120 the case or make under lighting or whatever the heck you want and everything's going to be be in sync and 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:07.040 it's going to be nice and good last and 00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:12.680 honestly maybe least we have the ASUS b150i Pro gaming Wi-Fi Aura board which 00:03:11.200 --> 00:03:16.560 would have maybe been helpful if you've seen the Fallout build considering it is 00:03:14.640 --> 00:03:20.319 ever so slightly shorter in the heat sink department and that might have 00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:23.840 actually helped me anyways this is basically just a cheaper version of 00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:28.720 their currently available current generation ITX boards which is really 00:03:26.040 --> 00:03:32.720 good to see because ITX being a value proposition is something that should 00:03:30.519 --> 00:03:36.319 definitely stay a thing and kind of wasn't for a little while there it does 00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:40.799 have one funky feature which is along the right hand side of the board just 00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:45.480 under the board or is it in the board no it's under the board is RGB stuff so 00:03:43.640 --> 00:03:50.360 just like we saw on the previous board it has the aura RGB lighting system in 00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:54.840 terms of plugging in fans you have three headers two that are up and near the top 00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:58.159 right hand is kind of corner one that is just above where you'd plug in your 00:03:56.200 --> 00:04:03.159 expansion card in terms of fancy features that it carries over from more 00:03:59.920 --> 00:04:06.040 higher-end boards it does have 2x2 mimo 00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:10.439 AC Wi-Fi which is pretty badass and an m.2 slot which is hidden behind the 00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:17.320 board it actually kind of took me a sec to find that one for Io you've got two 00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:21.040 USB 2.0 ports a PS2 Port badass DVI 00:04:17.320 --> 00:04:24.440 Optical HDMI uh USB type-c gigabit 00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:26.120 Ethernet two USB 3.0 ports that Wi-Fi 00:04:24.440 --> 00:04:29.280 that we were talking about earlier and a bank of audio ports all right guys 00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:33.160 thanks for checking out our video at the a to Sweet unsurprisingly ASUS has a 00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:37.600 bunch of cool new motherboard stuff coming soon thank you to Squarespace for 00:04:35.080 --> 00:04:42.240 sending
