1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:08,240
picking the top five gaming desktops at a show like CES is not an easy task

2
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:13,960
there are so many and the definition of desktop has become more and more Broad

3
00:00:11,679 --> 00:00:19,960
in recent years but we're going to kick things off with the MSI 27xt all-in-one

4
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:24,960
what makes this one special is the fact that it is an all-in-one that features a

5
00:00:22,439 --> 00:00:29,000
full-size graphics card mesh enclosure on the back of the unit that connects

6
00:00:26,519 --> 00:00:33,559
via a ribbon cable to a normal PCI Express 16x slot there is no multi- card

7
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:37,800
support but when you compare this to something like a completely enclosed

8
00:00:36,079 --> 00:00:42,760
non- upgradable all-in-one from the likes of someone like apple it is pretty

9
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:46,199
impressive especially for gamers and that's not the only feature that might

10
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:53,079
matter to Gamers the monitor that's included with it is a 144hz panel now it

11
00:00:50,879 --> 00:00:57,160
is a TN panel but it's got a 5 millisecond response time and it will

12
00:00:55,160 --> 00:01:01,800
definitely be an improvement for gaming over the type of panel you'd normally

13
00:00:59,079 --> 00:01:08,680
find in an all in one storage is handled by an m.2 NVMe SSD 08 two of them in

14
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:10,240
raid zero and the processor is a COR i7

15
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:16,040
nonk 6700 it's got a USB type-c connector and

16
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:20,680
an SDXC card reader and starts at $1700 not including the graphics card

17
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:25,920
you'll have to swap that one in on your own next up we've actually got another

18
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:30,119
Allin one from cyber this is a division of cyber power PC although the cybers

19
00:01:27,960 --> 00:01:39,320
are actually spelled differently this puppy is in a 34in 3440 by1 1440

20
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:42,079
ultrawide curved IPS monitor enclosure

21
00:01:39,320 --> 00:01:47,280
it's full of desktop parts and this is cool there's nothing proprietary so it's

22
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:49,520
actually very customizable and it's

23
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:55,280
water cooled it's got an all-in-one liquid cooler from acitech for the CPU

24
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:57,600
that fits a 240 mm radiator and it can

25
00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:02,000
also fit a custom Loop if you want something a little bit more exotic it

26
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:06,640
fits one full-size graphics card it can hold two 2 and 1/2 in drives for ssds or

27
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:11,160
hard drives although there is no 3 and 1/2 in drive support and has a small

28
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:16,680
enough form factor that even though it's got a power supply inside it actually

29
00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:20,519
doesn't look that unreasonably thick so

30
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:22,959
the core i5 gtx960 config starts at $900

31
00:02:20,519 --> 00:02:27,680
but obviously the sky is pretty much the limit when we're talking nonproprietary

32
00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:32,519
parts next up we've got the Digital Storm aventum 3 now although the aventum

33
00:02:29,879 --> 00:02:37,640
3 has been out for a little while this new version will have a new cooling

34
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:41,040
system and before we get inside though we need to take a look at the custom

35
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:45,319
hand painted chassis this thing is massive at over 2 feet deep and over 2

36
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:49,800
feet tall and can fit all standard motherboard sizes as well as large dual

37
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:54,599
CPU workstation boards much like the one that we used in our seven Gamers 1 CPU

38
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:58,879
project but of course you got to keep all that stuff cool somehow and the

39
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:03,640
aventum 3 features this completely integrated cool cooling system that is

40
00:03:00,959 --> 00:03:07,720
absolutely fantastic looking what's new here is the angled fittings to reduce

41
00:03:05,599 --> 00:03:12,959
the cracking that can sometimes occur with acrylic blocks the case features

42
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:18,319
support for three radiators a 480 mm and a 240 mm included that are all on the

43
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:23,480
same Loop and has this amazing looking Clear Water distribution block behind

44
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:28,200
the motherboard tray to cool all your components Digital Storm partnered with

45
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:32,519
EK for the cooling so it's done by a company that really knows what they're

46
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:37,280
doing and they even take requests for things like custom chipset coolers and

47
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:40,920
will install custom design Parts within reason you can also even ask for a

48
00:03:38,959 --> 00:03:44,319
specific coolant color it comes with cable covers and a power supply bridge

49
00:03:42,879 --> 00:03:47,879
on the back of the motherboard tray to keep everything tidy looking and like

50
00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:52,200
most cases where you have power supply cables kind of crammed into a corner

51
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:57,159
somewhere and it features RGB lighting for the interior exterior and the

52
00:03:54,480 --> 00:04:03,040
cooling the front IO includes two USB 3.1 ports and a slim optical drive

53
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:05,239
and of course there's a gotcha it starts at

54
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:14,640
$5,800 with a CPU only water cooling loop with flexible tubing instead of the

55
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:16,600
now more premium seeming rigid solution

56
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:20,759
that I personally don't do because it's a lot of work which is also why it's

57
00:04:18,799 --> 00:04:25,000
expensive because it's a lot of work the new cooling system is expected to be

58
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:32,000
coming on January 27th which brings us to the ASUS Rog

59
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:33,639
gt51 it supports Rog band and NFC

60
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:38,639
wristband which you can touch to the case to do two different things you can

61
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:42,520
activate Shadow Drive a hidden partition for stuff you need to keep private or

62
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:46,000
you can automatically overclock setting up a profile that the band will

63
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:49,479
automatically activate to crank up your CPU for gaming and turn it back down to

64
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:53,440
stock if you're just doing something like web browsing it's actually got more

65
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:58,039
functionality coming later like Auto Windows login there's a GPU air tunnel

66
00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:03,720
that works with a shunt from the bottom front fan to direct air over the GPU and

67
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:09,000
the front fan has a cool turbines design for the Shroud it features 8 million

68
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:13,720
colors of RGB customization a USB 3.1 type-c front connector pretty cool

69
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:17,240
mostly that scene in the back and it's got an amplified front audio jack for a

70
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:21,600
little bit of extra punch for your headphones it's available in mid to late

71
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:28,199
q1 and starting at $1800 which finally leads us to the iby

72
00:05:24,479 --> 00:05:30,240
power Revolt 2 this guy has a really

73
00:05:28,199 --> 00:05:35,039
unique chassis design it's kind of like this weird but surprisingly cool

74
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:39,280
trapezoid thing there's a tinted cover over the entirety of the top and half of

75
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:45,759
the front that shows off your GPU on the very top and up to two ssds in the front

76
00:05:42,479 --> 00:05:48,319
and the sides can be removed to reveal a

77
00:05:45,759 --> 00:05:52,759
very interesting internal layout that crams in a surprising amount of

78
00:05:50,759 --> 00:05:58,840
nonproprietary Hardware so you could put in pretty much any ITX case full-size

79
00:05:55,639 --> 00:06:01,280
ATX power supply 3 and 1/2 in drive and

80
00:05:58,840 --> 00:06:05,960
GPU that that you could want including liquid cooling all without having to

81
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:11,759
deal with any sort of thermal throttling that bottom can actually support up to a

82
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:14,720
dual 120 mm radiator or a single 120 and

83
00:06:11,759 --> 00:06:20,639
a single 140 if you wanted to water cool both the CPU and the GPU it's expected

84
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:26,199
to be available sometime later this month so thanks for checking out our top
