1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,839
this is a duck and kind of a large one

2
00:00:03,280 --> 00:00:09,679
but at what point is a nuck no longer a knock well

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:15,599
this is the beast canyon nook and Intel has given us room for a

4
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:18,320
full-blown 12-inch GPU in here

5
00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:22,400
but is it small enough to be enough or should you just have built your own

6
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:26,160
small form factor computer we'll see but not until i build a segway to our

7
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:30,080
sponsor glasswire instantly see your current and past network activity detect

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,880
malware and block badly behaving apps on your pc and Android device use offer

9
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:38,200
code Linus and get 25 off glass wire at the link below

10
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:53,120
i've always had a soft spot for nux and this one is no exception meet the beast

11
00:00:50,239 --> 00:00:58,160
canyon sure the 8 liter chassis is bigger than a4 Dan case but Intel has

12
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:03,600
used it to cram some truly impressive hardware in here the one we've got here

13
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:06,400
has an i9 11 900 kb basically a jacked

14
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:11,520
up 10 nanometer laptop CPU with eight cores and a juicy 5.3 gigahertz turbo as

15
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:17,200
well as 32 gigabytes of RAM half a terabyte of storage a teeny tiny 650

16
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:20,240
watt power supply and an rtx 3060.

17
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,920
that's pretty impressive but if it's

18
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:25,439
so big yeah can we call it a hook

19
00:01:23,759 --> 00:01:30,159
well instead of calling the motherboard a motherboard Intel called it the

20
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:34,240
compute element and in fairness it is quite a bit different than your average

21
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:38,720
motherboard basically everything needed to run the computer so CPU RAM storage

22
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:43,759
and even cooling is taken care of by this tiny little box it plugs into the

23
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:48,880
baseboard which allows you to connect other things to a PCIe connector like

24
00:01:46,320 --> 00:01:54,000
our rtx 3060. other than that this thing is basically just a small pc it's kind

25
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:59,040
of cute it's like a slightly more phallic ghost canyon with its extension

26
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:03,040
taking it from 5 liters to 8 with the goal of adding more power and bigger

27
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:08,319
graphics cards the bare bones kit doesn't come with a GPU but simply next

28
00:02:05,119 --> 00:02:10,959
website has a mini 3060 ti and a full

29
00:02:08,319 --> 00:02:15,680
size 3070 is add-on card options with support for up to a 3080. they've also

30
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:18,800
added a third fan for better cooling and trust me you're gonna need it just like

31
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:24,160
you're gonna need one of our reflective heatsink t-shirts to stay cool on these

32
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:29,200
summer days lttstore.com but that extra fan doesn't mean you can put this laptop

33
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,879
CPU under too much stress in cinebench

34
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:34,959
we were able to beat the ghost canyon neck despite it being overclocked to

35
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:39,680
within an inch of its life this thing was running at 98 degrees poor thing we

36
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:44,720
were hoping the addition of this shroud around the beast canyon's CPU cooler

37
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:47,760
would help but even on stock settings it

38
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,599
got up to a toasty 95 degrees although

39
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:55,920
once the turbo was done it settled in around 75 which is you know pretty good

40
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:57,360
it's an 11 900 kb versus an 11 900 hk so

41
00:02:55,920 --> 00:03:01,840
we're not surprised that the new one beat it but it is still nice to see if

42
00:03:00,239 --> 00:03:06,800
you want to play it safe you could go for the i7 compute element but forget

43
00:03:04,319 --> 00:03:10,879
about dropping it down to an i5 because that's just not an option anymore

44
00:03:08,959 --> 00:03:14,000
apparently people didn't buy it in games we see another marginal

45
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:19,360
improvement with the beast canyon the 3060 they sent us reached a high of 68

46
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:23,440
degrees during a one hour loop of f1 so it's just shy of the 70 degree mark

47
00:03:21,519 --> 00:03:28,480
where it'll start throttling back on the other hand the ghost canyon's 2070

48
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:32,400
reached 70 degrees very frequently so it's got slightly better cooling and

49
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:37,120
newer hardware but why would you want a beast canyon neck

50
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:42,319
well it's cool i like it and it's cool

51
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:46,560
from the way you open it to the layout to the upgrade path if you're the sort

52
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:51,040
of person who wants a small form-factor pc but doesn't want to actually build

53
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:55,040
one let's be real that can be an absolute nightmare

54
00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:57,840
then the beast canyon is well an absolute beast

55
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,920
and if you don't want to learn how to build one you can watch our how to build

56
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:06,879
a pc the last guide you'll ever need should be coming soon so get subscribed

57
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:10,799
and i mean just look at it there's so much room for

58
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:15,120
activities the front i o is mostly unchanged from the ghost canyon it just

59
00:04:12,799 --> 00:04:19,359
moved down a bit while the rear i o gets a couple more usb ports and upgrade to

60
00:04:17,359 --> 00:04:23,520
two and a half gigabit Ethernet the Thunderbolt ports have been upgraded to

61
00:04:20,959 --> 00:04:29,840
4.0 from three and the wi-fi has gone up from six to sixty and before i open it

62
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,840
up check this out

63
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:38,479
it's got underglow a young brian o'connor would

64
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:42,800
shed a tear while we're looking down here there's a

65
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:47,040
super easy to access m.2 slot bring the total and the system up to four now if

66
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:50,479
you do want to fully assemble it it's not all that

67
00:04:48,479 --> 00:04:55,040
difficult we've got four screws back here they're

68
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:58,240
all captive now this should just come

69
00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:01,759
right off yep easy

70
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,759
i think these come out

71
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:10,800
now the top peels off this one's kind of tough but you just need to give her

72
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:15,520
and this one goes up and out

73
00:05:14,479 --> 00:05:18,800
you're in you can get it all of it now okay here

74
00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:26,160
we go this is why we're actually in here we want to rip this GPU out rtx 3060s

75
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:31,360
they're just kind of you know

76
00:05:27,919 --> 00:05:33,840
NVIDIA's one miss with rtx 3000.

77
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:39,520
i can get it out there we go so long mr 3060.

78
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:43,120
so we have a 30 80 ti here are you sure

79
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:44,800
about this yeah so in the past if you

80
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:49,680
had a power supply that was kind of marginal it was totally fine and you

81
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:53,120
could sort of just do it in this situation

82
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:56,720
the problem is that small form factor power supplies because they're small

83
00:05:55,120 --> 00:06:01,600
have less capacitance so if you have something like a 3080 ti and you chuck

84
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:04,840
it in there it draws 500 watts the power supply doesn't like it it goes boom that

85
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:10,400
happened to andes and james's

86
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:14,560
and the billy billy pc i think we've killed a lot of small form factor

87
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:18,880
power supplies lately we're we're just doing a 38 yeah

88
00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:24,960
yeah we're playing it safe it will fit

89
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,960
will it suck i guess we will find it out

90
00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:33,600
that's fine nope

91
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:38,080
got it that was pretty simple

92
00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:41,440
all right let's game on this thing do you think it's gonna be fine

93
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,639
yeah i i don't think it's gonna be fine it's only a 3080

94
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:50,319
it's but it's right up against that power supply i think it's gonna run real

95
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,319
fast and then just go

96
00:06:50,479 --> 00:07:00,400
so idle we're looking at under 40 degrees on the GPU

97
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:02,639
CPU's already hit 95 degrees great start

98
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:06,960
all right here we go here we go it's getting toasty fast 320 watts power

99
00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:10,880
consumption GPU temperature did not take long it

100
00:07:09,039 --> 00:07:15,759
looks like it's going to hit 70 degrees here very soon

101
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:17,520
uh memories at a casual 88

102
00:07:15,759 --> 00:07:22,400
all right we hit 70 degrees it might start pulling the clocks right now

103
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:26,000
currently at 1900 megahertz up really quite fast actually how long can it

104
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:29,919
sustain it it's hot but like in a good way it i

105
00:07:27,919 --> 00:07:36,160
think it's actually working i'm honestly surprised that this 3080 is just fine

106
00:07:33,599 --> 00:07:40,639
in this little computer so if i'm honest i didn't expect the founders edition

107
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:44,240
3080 to be happy in this thing but it is so

108
00:07:41,759 --> 00:07:48,160
good job Intel if you do want to buy one of these and upgrade it make sure that

109
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:53,440
you pick out a two slot card and you can't go past 12 inches in length

110
00:07:50,639 --> 00:07:56,080
so basically founders edition that's kind of what you get

111
00:07:54,960 --> 00:08:03,360
now there is a big problem though the the

112
00:07:59,599 --> 00:08:06,319
price the base model with an 11 900 kb

113
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:10,960
starts at 1600 us dollars once you upgrade the memory storage add

114
00:08:09,039 --> 00:08:16,000
a GPU it'll set you back like three thousand

115
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:20,720
dollars pretty fast oh small form factor components do

116
00:08:18,639 --> 00:08:25,120
usually cost a little bit more than their standard size ones

117
00:08:22,639 --> 00:08:31,360
but we recently did a small form factor build in the joe that had very similar

118
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:34,000
performance for nearly half the price

119
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:38,000
that's using a standard motherboard and a really big cooler the cooling i think

120
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:40,640
was impeccable so

121
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:45,440
yeah at the end of the day the beast canyon

122
00:08:42,719 --> 00:08:49,760
is super cool and if you're rich get it or if you enjoy a challenge and having

123
00:08:47,519 --> 00:08:53,200
an extra fifteen hundred dollars maybe just build one yourself what you're not

124
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:57,200
gonna build yourself though is a pair of shoes so thanks to bessie for sponsoring

125
00:08:55,200 --> 00:09:00,720
this video vesti footwear is known for being waterproof they're lightweight

126
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,680
easy to pack and breathable you don't need to worry about the weather anymore

127
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:07,200
with a dual climate knit material keeping your feet warm in the winter and

128
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:10,640
cool in the summer they have super easy slip on and slip off and are comfortable

129
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:14,720
for traveling and fit almost any occasion some of us are wearing them

130

well this video won't help you but it's really difficult and absolute nightmare

135
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:37,839
and quite amusing just watch it here
