WEBVTT

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

00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:15.320
okay so I'm going to be unboxing the ASUS best value combo of PCI Express

00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:21.680
solution all right so this features a state-of-the-art Cutting Edge AI

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:24.880
proactive P5 gd1 motherboard featuring

00:00:21.680 --> 00:00:26.359
the Intel 95p chipset and I don't know

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

00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:35.120
box I found this in some corner of the

00:00:32.160 --> 00:00:38.960
warehouse okay so this is a PCI Express back when that was like a Cutting Edge

00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:46.320
feature okay and then it also features an extreme ax 600 XT which is basically

00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:49.039
a 9600 Pro adapted for a PCI Express

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

00:00:51.360 --> 00:01:01.440
included with this particular powerful features uh combo here so complete

00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:05.320
directex 9.0 support excellent variety

00:01:01.440 --> 00:01:09.159
connectivity with dvii TV out and dual

00:01:05.320 --> 00:01:11.119
VGA okay and then we have Game Face live

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

00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:20.439
probably up at this point totally gone okay it supports lga775 Pentium 4 CPU

00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:29.040
dual Channel ddr400 and SATA as well as IDE raid

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

00:01:32.479 --> 00:01:39.200
valuables inside this box including a webcam and a Gamepad which are under

00:01:36.600 --> 00:01:45.759
oneyear warranty period which is totally gone oh and it includes a free copy of

00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:47.759
DSX Invisible War wow that that is an

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

00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:57.880
Wireless G cool all right smart art doctor stack cool all right so inside oh

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

00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:06.799
here here all right here's an accessory box this is

00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:13.560
uh ah this seems to be a mount for the webcam okay and then we

00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:16.120
have uh what is this ah yes the webcam

00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:19.879
okay so if I could just get this open we could have a look at this

00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:27.400
state-of-the-art Cutting Edge webcam here there you go it plugs in by

00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:31.200
USB ooh no I'm just kidding USBS was was

00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:33.319
was not not new then either okay so

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

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

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

00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:50.519
motherboard accessories would be my guess aha so it comes with a very

00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:58.000
complete accessory package including a a driver CD all right a user guide with uh

00:02:55.360 --> 00:03:02.800
a graphics card driver CD okay oh and the user guide includes a graphics card

00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:08.360
setup setup thing as well I'm just going to get that CD so I don't lose it okay a

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

00:03:10.519 --> 00:03:16.760
cables and they come with little caps on them remember that wow haven't seen that

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

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

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

00:03:36.239 --> 00:03:43.840
floppy cable ironically those are still coming with motherboards these days okay

00:03:41.239 --> 00:03:49.680
then we've got an IO Shield all right we've got a DVI to VGA

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

00:03:55.599 --> 00:04:03.799
last but not least we have Molex to dual SATA power adapter because a lot of

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

00:04:06.920 --> 00:04:16.040
interesting oh this is nice I've never seen okay so Aus CD Suite this comes

00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:21.160
with all of your CDs in it that's pretty cool so there's your day copy of DSX

00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:25.960
game disc install disc comes with a copy of aus DVD all right I actually have a

00:04:24.440 --> 00:04:30.160
copy of this somewhere it came with a laptop I bought in fact I have all I

00:04:27.919 --> 00:04:35.120
have these two came with an assus laptop I bought years ago okay uh you lead cool

00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:39.080
3D SE all right oh and it's got some more slots hey this is actually a pretty

00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:44.360
nice little uh CD wallet there that's very nice okay so I'm going to just take

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

00:04:48.840 --> 00:04:57.680
an impregnable box ah I found it here's the seam okay

00:04:54.039 --> 00:04:59.240
so this includes a an Aus gam pad wow

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

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

00:05:07.440 --> 00:05:13.240
everything seems sort of like this is making me sound old but everything seems

00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:18.479
kind of like cheap in plastic sometimes these days okay so this is a dual analog

00:05:16.320 --> 00:05:24.080
game controller with four buttons here it has turbo something about analog it

00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:28.280
has macro support clear oh and then more buttons on the back so it has dual

00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:33.440
shoulder buttons it plugs in by USB and it's got like stylish red R rubberized

00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:36.800
grip and then black rubberized grip this actually hey this is pretty nice

00:05:34.600 --> 00:05:40.680
actually no I quite like this it's pretty ergonomic okay yeah yeah I could

00:05:39.440 --> 00:05:44.960
I could handle getting one of those for free with my motherboard not that we've

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

00:05:47.960 --> 00:05:56.240
to the real business here it is The Cutting

00:05:51.479 --> 00:05:59.840
Edge PCI Express graphics card wow an

00:05:56.240 --> 00:06:02.000
orange PCB excellent so it has a blower

00:05:59.840 --> 00:06:06.599
design for the fan here you can see that blows the air down towards the uh

00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:11.199
towards the graphics Port itself this features the atti rage theater chip

00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:15.880
which I forget what it does at this point but it does something relevant

00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:21.479
okay so like I said this is an x600 which is basically equivalent to a

00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:24.240
Radeon 9600 so you can see I believe it

00:06:21.479 --> 00:06:28.160
would be DDR memory on the back here rated at how however many Nan seconds

00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:32.400
would have been relevant back then all right so there's the video card now

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

00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:42.240
loaded onto this motherboard let's start with the uh CPU so it supports an lga775

00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:47.759
CPU but forget support for dual course quad course none of that nonsense only

00:06:44.880 --> 00:06:54.440
single core Pentium fors that's it okay you've got support for dual Channel DDR

00:06:50.280 --> 00:06:57.000
not two not three DDR 184 pin DDR all

00:06:54.440 --> 00:07:05.840
right you have oh this is great count them 1 2 3 IDE ports excellent

00:07:02.080 --> 00:07:08.240
supporting up to six IDE drives awesome

00:07:05.840 --> 00:07:13.960
feature right there Then you have four SATA 1 ports okay remember we're up to

00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:18.120
SATA 3 now on current motherboards here is your conveniently colorcoded front

00:07:16.080 --> 00:07:22.960
panel headers then you've got a couple USB 2.0 headers now in terms of

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

00:07:26.960 --> 00:07:32.520
and two PCI Express 1X slots sorry did I

00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:36.759
say two I meant three PCI Express 1X slots your power ports are conveniently

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

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

00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:48.840
fanless design zero noise no moving parts so that's your mosfet cooler you

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

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

00:07:56.639 --> 00:08:03.400
okay we've got a printer port nice nice

00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:08.199
serial Port okay then we have digital

00:08:03.400 --> 00:08:09.759
audio out then we've got four USB ports

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

00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:19.560
then 7.1 HD audio so thank you for

00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:24.520
checking out my uh somewhat dated

00:08:19.560 --> 00:08:27.560
unboxing of the P5 gd1 and extreme ax600

00:08:24.520 --> 00:08:31.440
XT uh best value

00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:31.440
combo from isus
