00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.040
thank you to MSI for sending us here to computex this year and also thank you to

00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:10.200
linda.com First up at Zotac we have a new ZBOX mainly designed behind their

00:00:08.679 --> 00:00:14.000
steam machine that we actually saw at PAX East but now with more

00:00:12.200 --> 00:00:17.920
customizability in mind with the steam machine it was all one package this one

00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:22.279
is customizable also instead of the like white and silver design of the old steam

00:00:19.880 --> 00:00:26.560
machine ZBOX well old is a kind of weird name cuz it's not even out yet uh it is

00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:30.279
now an all blackout design also something to note that led ring around

00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:33.600
the power button on the front can be turned off in the BIOS just in case you

00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:37.160
don't want that light there also it's called an En 970 for now but it'll have

00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:40.879
a better name going in the future so I'm not entirely sure what it will be called

00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:46.480
the pro model will have 8 gigs of RAM and 128 GB SSD inside of it but the more

00:00:44.559 --> 00:00:53.600
barebones version will have two 2 and 1/2 in Drive slots two uh like laptop

00:00:49.879 --> 00:00:55.879
style sodm memory gdr3 slots one m.2

00:00:53.600 --> 00:01:02.440
slot it will come with an i5 Broadwell 5200u processor uh an NVIDIA 970m with 3

00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:06.400
G gab of ddr5 and enough cooling to hopefully keep it from throttling in

00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:10.920
terms of IO on the front we have an SD card reader a microphone Jack a

00:01:08.240 --> 00:01:15.720
headphone jack and two USB 3.0 ports on the back you have a Wi-Fi antenna four

00:01:12.600 --> 00:01:19.119
HDMI 2.0 ports 2 GB Ethernet ports two

00:01:15.720 --> 00:01:21.200
USB 3.0 ports and two USB 2.0 ports plus

00:01:19.119 --> 00:01:24.840
the power plug then we get to graphics cards they have four different versions

00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:28.280
of the 980 TI and I I know that's a lot but we'll go fairly quickly don't you

00:01:26.320 --> 00:01:33.000
worry about it the first one is the 9980 ti amp just their standard edition this

00:01:30.600 --> 00:01:36.439
is only $10 more than the reference card so pretty good deal for a triple fan

00:01:34.759 --> 00:01:42.079
cooler it's the same cooler that we've seen in the past so I won't spend too much time on that but the back plate on

00:01:39.759 --> 00:01:46.159
here is a wraparound so it looks kind of cool and the 980 TI doesn't have a back

00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:51.200
plate by reference so that's actually pretty nice the amp Omega Edition is the

00:01:48.759 --> 00:01:54.399
same kind of overall cooler no major differences other than the fact that

00:01:52.360 --> 00:01:58.600
it's 2 and 1 half slots and the fans have dual blades on them last but not

00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:03.360
least of the more Standard air coolers is the amp extreme which has more or

00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:06.880
less the same cooler as the amp Omega but it has lights on the front and

00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:11.520
lights on the top and then in terms of overclocking it's a freaking Beast its

00:02:09.239 --> 00:02:16.000
base core clock is 1253 with a boost clock of

00:02:12.480 --> 00:02:18.000
1355 and a memory clock of

00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:22.200
7,210 and then we get to the Arctic Storm which is probably just as cool as

00:02:19.720 --> 00:02:26.800
it sounds it has the same uh wraparound back blade as the previous ones but now

00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:31.360
it has a kind of cool Arcy styled Art Deco on it it's really really heavy due

00:02:29.440 --> 00:02:35.720
to the fact that it's a water cooled or air cooled card and therefore comes with

00:02:33.760 --> 00:02:39.239
a support bracket which is not currently shown as they don't have it here but

00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:43.200
it'll enable you to screw it onto the end of the card and then fix it to

00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:46.519
either the bottom or top of your case to help support it as again it's a really

00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:50.000
heavy card you don't want it to droop and potentially crack now the Arctic

00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:53.800
Storm doesn't have much of an overclock on it by default now you might have

00:02:51.720 --> 00:02:57.680
expected more in this realm but they're expecting you to want to overclock this

00:02:55.879 --> 00:03:02.400
card yourself as it's kind of like a water cooled hybrid card thingy I don't

00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:07.000
really necessarily blame them for that all right guys let me know what you think about things in general I know I

00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:10.480
covered like five things at this booth so just let me know what you think about

00:03:08.799 --> 00:03:16.040
stuff in the comments down below or on Twitter at lukor LFR don't forget to

so they were a huge help in the link in the video description down below that's

00:03:29.480 --> 00:03:34.840
the bitly link you can see all the productss that they launched at computex

00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:39.519
this year including Broadwell enabled laptops also thank you to linda.com

00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:44.519
