00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:13,440
today on the crazy Russians NC PC lab I

2
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:18,000
have boxes actually I have a system hiding

3
00:00:15,759 --> 00:00:23,160
behind the boxes featuring a number of the components that are here represented

4
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:28,080
by the boxes that the components are no longer inside because they're in the

5
00:00:26,119 --> 00:00:33,280
system so we have the Crosshair 5 formula which is a susa's republic of

6
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:37,000
Gamers SLI Crossfire ready motherboard

7
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:40,280
that has full support for AMD bulldozer

8
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,920
FX so we've got an fx 8150 CPU in here

9
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:46,800
cooled by the Corsair h100 using four

10
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:51,039
fans and push pull configuration for maximum static pressure and maximum air

11
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:56,440
flow we've also got a radon hd6970 direct cu2 from ASUS so the direct cu2

12
00:00:54,199 --> 00:01:00,039
cooler uses dual fans in order to provide better cooling than the

13
00:00:58,199 --> 00:01:04,680
reference design card you can actually run not only one but two of those cards

14
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:09,560
in this system just by adding an additional card and upgrading the power

15
00:01:06,439 --> 00:01:12,200
supply where the ax850 is more than

16
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:15,960
enough for a single card solution just for comfort you might want to go with

17
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:19,119
something a little bit higher end if you go with a dual or even a triple no I

18
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:23,439
don't think yeah this card does not support triple Graphics because it uses

19
00:01:21,079 --> 00:01:26,880
a triple slot cooler on this particular motherboard but you can still go with

20
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:32,799
dual graphics and then you might want to go with um an HX what is it HX 1050

21
00:01:30,479 --> 00:01:35,360
these days I think the hx1000 is gone either way let's have a look at the

22
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:41,920
system so the first thing you're going to see here is the AMD FX 8158 core

23
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:46,000
processor so here I'm going to show you what might become your favorite

24
00:01:43,159 --> 00:01:50,719
Benchmark and that is Task Manager because it has eight threads all of

25
00:01:48,799 --> 00:01:56,880
which are pinned at 100% because we are running Prime 95 small fft in order to

26
00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:01,520
Pro put the maximum amount of stress on the CPU to make sure it's stable before

27
00:01:59,119 --> 00:02:05,039
we start any overclocking because these systems will come pre-overclocked this

28
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:09,000
is actually going to be a special edition red painted system as you may or

29
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:12,280
may not be able to tell at this point in time I also want to show you one other

30
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:15,280
cool thing about the bulldozer FX CPU I'm going to stop the small fft test

31
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:20,120
hopefully that doesn't bother crazy Russian and it's not doing anything that

32
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:26,680
matters I don't know uh so I'm going to set it to one torture test thread to run

33
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:30,360
and you are going to see AMD

34
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:34,319
turbo hold on there we go

35
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:37,319
so core clocks are up to 3.9 GHz so that

36
00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:39,200
is using their turbo core technology in

37
00:02:37,319 --> 00:02:42,440
order to provide better single-threaded performance when you're running a

38
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:47,800
lightly threaded workload so there you go it works uh what else do we have here

39
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:51,200
yeah let's open it up and have a look at the rest of the system config I actually

40
00:02:49,879 --> 00:02:56,159
don't know how much these are going to cost yet I don't know what the final clock speeds of the CPU going to be yet

41
00:02:54,519 --> 00:03:00,159
these are all sort of trivial details what you need to know is that it is a

42
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:05,920
beast machine and it looks great so we've got the ax850 there there's your

43
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:10,280
triple slot capable of five simultaneous

44
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:13,120
outputs a uh ASUS radon 6970 and you can

45
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:19,519
put an additional one in this lot right here actually oh can you can you okay

46
00:03:17,799 --> 00:03:24,840
apparently you can I'm getting the nod from uh crazy Russian so that's good

47
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:27,319
we've also got a crucial M4 sat3 SSD

48
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:31,959
installed in the top Bay and a 3 tbte storage drive that's a 128 gig right yep

49
00:03:29,959 --> 00:03:36,319
I'm getting the nod we've got 8 gigs of Corsair Vengeance RAM which can be

50
00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:40,720
upgraded to 16 gigs should you so desire we've got the h100 so you can clearly

51
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:44,879
see the two stock Corsair fans here and then we've also got two Cooler Master

52
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:49,480
red LED fans here which gives you that little bit of LED lighting Accent on the

53
00:03:46,959 --> 00:03:52,680
top we've got the corser h100 right here which you can actually adjust the fan

54
00:03:50,799 --> 00:03:56,840
speed on just by clicking the button so there's your low mid and your highspeed

55
00:03:54,799 --> 00:04:01,319
settings just you can see the LED illumination around it and the Crosshair

56
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:06,599
5 formula motherboard makes a beautiful backdrop with its black overall look and

57
00:04:04,439 --> 00:04:11,599
red accents that go along with every other aspect of this system very very

58
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:15,040
sharp looking system so thank you oh yeah we've got hey check that out we've

59
00:04:12,799 --> 00:04:20,199
got a Blu-ray uh is that a Blu-ray burner nope we've got a Blu-ray player

60
00:04:17,280 --> 00:04:26,440
DVD burner combo unit in the front to go with the ASUS and Corsair overall theme

61
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:29,400
of this build it is an ASUS Blu-ray Drive and I think that pretty much

62
00:04:27,919 --> 00:04:32,919
covers everything I wanted to say about this Sky I look forward to getting back

63
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:37,280
to you guys with our overclocking results with the bulldozer FX 8150 don't
