1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:09,160
okay so today I'm going to be doing the first in a series of retro unboxings

2
00:00:06,799 --> 00:00:15,320
okay so I'm going to be unboxing the ASUS best value combo of PCI Express

3
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:21,680
solution all right so this features a state-of-the-art Cutting Edge AI

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:24,880
proactive P5 gd1 motherboard featuring

5
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:26,359
the Intel 95p chipset and I don't know

6
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:32,160
if you're going to be able to see this but see how much dust comes off this

7
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:35,120
box I found this in some corner of the

8
00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:38,960
warehouse okay so this is a PCI Express back when that was like a Cutting Edge

9
00:00:36,719 --> 00:00:46,320
feature okay and then it also features an extreme ax 600 XT which is basically

10
00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:49,039
a 9600 Pro adapted for a PCI Express

11
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:53,960
interface with with a fan on it so let's go down and see what features are

12
00:00:51,360 --> 00:01:01,440
included with this particular powerful features uh combo here so complete

13
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:05,320

connectivity with dvii TV out and dual

15
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:11,119
VGA okay and then we have Game Face live

16
00:01:09,159 --> 00:01:14,960
video oh man that's Dusty oh it has a three-year warranty which by the way is

17
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:20,439
probably up at this point totally gone okay it supports lga775 Pentium 4 CPU

18
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:29,040
dual Channel ddr400 and SATA as well as IDE raid

19
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:34,880
there you go that is a feature I haven't seen in a while IDE raid also there are

20
00:01:32,479 --> 00:01:39,200
valuables inside this box including a webcam and a Gamepad which are under

21
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:45,759
oneyear warranty period which is totally gone oh and it includes a free copy of

22
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:47,759
DSX Invisible War wow that that is an

23
00:01:45,759 --> 00:01:52,759
old game at this point so let's get this thing opened up here oh something about

24
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:57,880
Wireless G cool all right smart art doctor stack cool all right so inside oh

25
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:01,560
we find lots of goodies so why don't we start with some of the accessory boxes

26
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:06,799
here here all right here's an accessory box this is

27
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:13,560
uh ah this seems to be a mount for the webcam okay and then we

28
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:16,120
have uh what is this ah yes the webcam

29
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:19,879
okay so if I could just get this open we could have a look at this

30
00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:27,400
state-of-the-art Cutting Edge webcam here there you go it plugs in by

31
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:31,200
USB ooh no I'm just kidding USBS was was

32
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:33,319
was not not new then either okay so

33
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:37,519
we've got the webcam sorted out let's find out what's in the next box here so

34
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:42,239
oh I don't even think I can like reach that one yet okay okay why don't we find

35
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:45,040
out what's in this box there we go so this is probably going to be our

36
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:50,519
motherboard accessories would be my guess aha so it comes with a very

37
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:58,000
complete accessory package including a a driver CD all right a user guide with uh

38

00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:12,239
now I dropped it forget it okay so then we have let's see this is four SATA

41
00:03:10,519 --> 00:03:16,760
cables and they come with little caps on them remember that wow haven't seen that

42
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:22,200
one in a while two more SATA cables so that's a total of four SATA cables all

00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:28,080
right it comes with uh two USB oh and a joystick Port Port for the back awesome

44
00:03:26,519 --> 00:03:33,879
awesome haven't seen one of those in a while either two ID cables 180 pin and

45
00:03:31,879 --> 00:03:39,200
140 pin so that's for a hard drive that's for an optical drive and then a

46
00:03:36,239 --> 00:03:43,840
floppy cable ironically those are still coming with motherboards these days okay

47
00:03:41,239 --> 00:03:49,680
then we've got an IO Shield all right we've got a DVI to VGA

48
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:55,599
adapter okay then we have oh this is great this is an S video to composite

00:03:52,599 --> 00:03:57,840
output adapter for the video card and

50
00:03:55,599 --> 00:04:03,799
last but not least we have Molex to dual SATA power adapter because a lot of

51
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:09,040
power supplies back in the day did not come with SATA H SATA power oh this is

52
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:16,040
interesting oh this is nice I've never seen okay so Aus CD Suite this comes

53
00:04:13,159 --> 00:04:21,160

nice little uh CD wallet there that's very nice okay so I'm going to just take

59
00:04:41,479 --> 00:04:50,440
this piece out just so that I can get at this one okay so in here we will find oh

60
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:57,680
an impregnable box ah I found it here's the seam okay

61
00:04:54,039 --> 00:04:59,240
so this includes a an Aus gam pad wow

62
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:04,600
that's actually pretty hefty that's got like a quality feel to it cuz that's one

63
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:09,400
thing that they did do back then better you know more heavy duty stuff it's like

64
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:13,240
everything seems sort of like this is making me sound old but everything seems

65
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:18,479
kind of like cheap in plastic sometimes these days okay so this is a dual analog

66
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:24,080
game controller with four buttons here it has turbo something about analog it

67
00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:28,280
has macro support clear oh and then more buttons on the back so it has dual

68
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:33,440
shoulder buttons it plugs in by USB and it's got like stylish red R rubberized

69
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:36,800
grip and then black rubberized grip this actually hey this is pretty nice

70
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:40,680
actually no I quite like this it's pretty ergonomic okay yeah yeah I could

71
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:44,960
I could handle getting one of those for free with my motherboard not that we've

72
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:50,520
seen an offer like that in you know oh years okay all right now let's get down

73
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:56,240
to the real business here it is The Cutting

74
00:05:51,479 --> 00:05:59,840
Edge PCI Express graphics card wow an

75
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:02,000
orange PCB excellent so it has a blower

76
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:06,599
design for the fan here you can see that blows the air down towards the uh

77
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:11,199
towards the graphics Port itself this features the atti rage theater chip

78
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:15,880
which I forget what it does at this point but it does something relevant

79
00:06:13,199 --> 00:06:21,479
okay so like I said this is an x600 which is basically equivalent to a

80
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:24,240
Radeon 9600 so you can see I believe it

81
00:06:21,479 --> 00:06:28,160
would be DDR memory on the back here rated at how however many Nan seconds

82
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:32,400
would have been relevant back then all right so there's the video card now

83
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:36,360
let's have a look at the motherboard so you can see we've got all the features

84
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:42,240
loaded onto this motherboard let's start with the uh CPU so it supports an lga775

85
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:47,759
CPU but forget support for dual course quad course none of that nonsense only

86
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:54,440
single core Pentium fors that's it okay you've got support for dual Channel DDR

87
00:06:50,280 --> 00:06:57,000
not two not three DDR 184 pin DDR all

88
00:06:54,440 --> 00:07:05,840
right you have oh this is great count them 1 2 3 IDE ports excellent

89
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:08,240
supporting up to six IDE drives awesome

90
00:07:05,840 --> 00:07:13,960
feature right there Then you have four SATA 1 ports okay remember we're up to

91
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:18,120
SATA 3 now on current motherboards here is your conveniently colorcoded front

92
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:22,960
panel headers then you've got a couple USB 2.0 headers now in terms of

93
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:30,240
expansion slots you have one PCI Express 16x gen 1 and then you've got three PCI

94
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:32,520
and two PCI Express 1X slots sorry did I

95
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:36,759
say two I meant three PCI Express 1X slots your power ports are conveniently

96
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:40,840
located with your 24 pin along the right hand Edge and your four pin up at the

97
00:07:38,919 --> 00:07:45,560
very top remember we're up to eight pin now on those guys all right and this is

98
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:48,840
fanless design zero noise no moving parts so that's your mosfet cooler you

99
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:53,520
can see we've come a long way on those as well let's have a look at the back

100
00:07:50,879 --> 00:08:00,360
panel ports Okay so we've got two PS2 ports now we have normally like only one

101
00:07:56,639 --> 00:08:03,400
okay we've got a printer port nice nice

102
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:08,199
serial Port okay then we have digital

103
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:09,759
audio out then we've got four USB ports

104
00:08:08,199 --> 00:08:15,639
I don't even know if this is a gigabit Lan but it's some kind of Lan port and

105
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:19,560
then 7.1 HD audio so thank you for

106
00:08:15,639 --> 00:08:24,520
checking out my uh somewhat dated

107
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:27,560
unboxing of the P5 gd1 and extreme ax600

108
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:31,440
XT uh best value

109
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,440
combo from isus
