1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:05,600
so today I'm going to be having a quick look at a product that you probably

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:09,880
don't recognize because normally thermal R products come in a brown box but it

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:14,120
looks like they've gone away from their completely boring packaging and they've

4
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:18,160
decided to go with a black box with actual words on it other than just

5
00:00:16,279 --> 00:00:22,680
thermal right okay but that's here too obviously and then they've actually gone

6
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:26,320
with like a shiny venomous X green sort

7
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,320
of logoeyelash

8
00:00:30,199 --> 00:00:36,719
5 so it is completely up to date in terms of the CPUs it supports and this

9
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:42,520
is the successor to the famous or inFAMOUS or whatever it is the legendary

10
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:47,280
Ultra 120 extreme so this is what thermal right is saying is going to beat

11
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:51,719
it handily so let's have a look at what is included in our accessory pack first

12
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:55,680
this is a nice box actually look it's all thermal r on the inside it's even

13
00:00:54,160 --> 00:01:00,039
black on the inside that looks that looks great okay so

14
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:03,920
accessories all right it comes in a nice little assembly package look at that so

15
00:01:03,079 --> 00:01:08,040
it includes how exactly does this work okay

16
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:13,240
so it includes you know what I'm not going to bother taking this out because I think it should be pretty

17
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:16,520
straightforward but we've got one okay actually maybe it's not that

18
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:21,479
straightforward yeah I better take this out okay hold on if I can figure out how

19
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:24,159
this baggie comes apart then I would uh go ahead and do

20
00:01:24,159 --> 00:01:29,079
that I got it I got it no I don't got it

21
00:01:28,119 --> 00:01:33,560
you know what let's pull out the instructions and go for from there oh I have a knife now excellent okay let's

22
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:37,680
have a look at the instructions first that might make life simpler okay so

23
00:01:35,320 --> 00:01:44,119
here's how it works you have a multiple support back plate so that has 775 1156

24
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:50,119
and 1366 holes you put these uh thumb screws onto it and then from there you

25
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:52,640
install the anchoring bracket Mount okay

26
00:01:50,119 --> 00:01:56,200
and then you have little like thumb nuts that go onto those screws that we

27
00:01:54,280 --> 00:02:01,079
applied before so I guess that goes on top of the

28
00:01:57,759 --> 00:02:03,039
board yeah yeah so these spacers first

29
00:02:01,079 --> 00:02:06,880
so the back plate is alone then these spacers then this is on top of the

30
00:02:05,119 --> 00:02:09,520
spacers and then this holds it down and then you use the pressure adjustable

31
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:14,599
mounting plate and this is one of the big Innovations they've made with the venomous X because a lot of people were

32
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:19,720
able to get better performance out of the ultra 120 extreme by actually

33
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:23,160
adjusting how tight it mounted down on the CPU so now they're just building

34
00:02:21,519 --> 00:02:27,280
that functionality right in so you can adjust it okay and then you Ed the

35
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:30,800
standard thermal rate fan Clips in order to mount the fan and let's see yeah

36
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:34,800
we've got a diagram right here of exactly how all of that works so you can

37
00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:38,080
see this is going to be the motherboard surface here and then you've got your

38
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:42,360
little nuts and then you've got your hold down plate so it's all nice and

39
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:46,319
chrome and shiny on the top and then the back plate is just a standard sort of

40
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:50,840
black all right and there's the the adjustable knob for the mounting

41
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:54,720
pressure okay so let's keep moving next we've got a thermal right sticker for

42
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:58,720
your case or your wall or wherever you want to put it next we've got an

43
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:01,720
assembly package oh this is just contents to make sure you you can do a

44
00:03:00,159 --> 00:03:04,959
double check before you get started that everything is there oh they even include

45
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:11,040
a little wrench for tightening the adjustable mounting pressure thing that's pretty nice all right then we've

46
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:16,440
got a piece of foam and then we have the coveted venomous X

47
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:21,799
itself nice and protected in there it's a very nice box sorry I know I'm kind of

48
00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:24,080
harping on the box but it's uh I

49
00:03:21,799 --> 00:03:28,640
approve okay so they've changed the look of it a little bit from the ultra 120

50
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:34,000
extreme first of all okay the first thing I noticed is that you've got

51
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:35,959
little um little jutting out pieces of

52
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,080
metal okay so that gives you a little bit can you really tell what it looks

53
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:43,239
kind of weird but all it is is it's a different shape from the top down okay

54
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:48,000
they've got the same thing that they were doing before where the one side uh

55
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:52,120
tips up and the other side tips down and I'm I believe that is to create more

56
00:03:50,519 --> 00:03:56,920
turbulence as the air is flowing through the heat sink which means more more uh

57
00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:00,599
more surface contact between the heat sink and the air and more heat exchange

58
00:03:59,319 --> 00:04:04,720
all right so let's have a look from the side you can see what I mean here where

59
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:10,079
you can see that on this side they Point down and on this side they point up okay

60
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:15,200
oh the cameraman's checking out these six heat pipes that go down one side and

61
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:18,400
then up the other side and then the thermal right logo that you've got on

62
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:22,240
the top thermal right's never been about like you know weird plastic shrouds or

63
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:27,160
anything like that they go with a simple elegant look and I do really really like

64
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:30,280
it nice and shiny all right then we'll have a look at the other side which

65
00:04:28,639 --> 00:04:34,000
basically looks like the first side that we looked at okay so let's keep moving

66
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:39,680
on from there so there you have it they've jammed as many heat pipes as

67
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:42,199
they realistically possibly can into as

68
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:46,520
small a space as possible now we don't have heat pipe direct touch with this

69
00:04:43,919 --> 00:04:50,680
particular heat sink but uh personally I've yet to see any evidence that that

70
00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:54,280
actually improves things on its own um you're far better off with a with a

71
00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:57,880
well-engineered heat sink that doesn't include heat pipe direct touch versus a

72
00:04:55,919 --> 00:05:03,080
poorly engineered one that does and remember too that not all heat pipes are

73
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:05,880
created equal thermal does use a special

74
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:09,160
gous liquidy uh substance inside their heat pipes that other manufacturers do

75
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:12,600
not and they claim it does help them conduct heat better so let's do the

76
00:05:10,840 --> 00:05:16,720
obligatory finger shot here you can see that is incredibly shiny that's a mere

77
00:05:14,639 --> 00:05:22,039
finish you can see my hand no matter how far back I move away if you can yeah you

78
00:05:20,039 --> 00:05:28,039
can yeah you see that's very shiny anyway thank you for checking out my

79
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:30,720
unboxing of the thermal R venomous X can

80
00:05:28,039 --> 00:05:30,720
I see you through
