computex 2013 is powered by Western Digital our trusted gaming gear partner is Corsair Vengeance and our trusted retail partner is nc.com so we've got Eric here from tte orts who's going to be showing us some pretty cool stuff they've also got a lot of stuff that they've already released but why don't you start with this guy right here this is the Poseidon and it's a mechanical keyboard people love mechanical keyboards it's so big these days tell me two things why are mechanical keyboards such a big deal all of a sudden and number two is how does it how's this positioned in the market why do we need the Poseidon in addition to all your other mechanical keyboards okay so mainly people want mechanical keyboards these days because they're a lot more durable than membrane keyboards have been in the past sorry um so um it's really durable um it costs a little bit more but it's like guaranteed to last like 50 million keystrokes usually if it doesn't then you just return it get a new one so it just like keeps that lifetime cycle going so tell me about that durability because these are a lower cost mechanical keyboard but you can still you can still offer that guarantee to your customers yeah so um in the past I've done videos on YouTube um probably look for them I've I took a BMW and rolled over our Mecha G1 keyboard just to prove like it's really durable still works there's videos on YouTube um but the market position for this keyboard we decided to release something that's a little more cost affordable in the past our keyboards have been in like the 129 139 range um so we're trying to get something a little bit uh more affordable for every game gamer so uh what we decided to do is release a really simple entry-level mechanical keyboard so we came up with the Poseidon um we have a non-b backlight and a backlight version so the backlight uh version is going to be starting at $89.99 and the non-backlit is going to be $79.99 um but at the same time even though it's cost affordable we didn't want to compromise the durability so these keyboards are uh pretty robust um they can last quite a while and we're really excited for them pick that up and do a flex test for me because that that's that's my kind of trademark thing if we can get an angle on that real wrench on it because I always wrench on it so you can see guys when you have a cheap keyboard that thing is going to flex to the point where you can almost pop the keys off but even though this is a 70 this is a $79.99 keyboard right so that's getting down into the price ranges of something like a high-end membrane buy an entry-level mechanical not a high-end membrane I mean obviously buy a high-end mechanical if you can but speaking of high-end Mechanicals you have some new stuff coming on the high-end stuff too show me what we got over here okay so in the past we've uh mainly stuck with black switches so we've done gunit G1 Mecca with black switches so uh what we decided to do this year is come up with a lot more options for um people that want to buy red switches Brown switches Blue switches so um here we're showing off the gunit um with different switches we have a blue a red and a brown here um the red one here was showing off even the illuminated the full backlight version um so we really want to give people more options because um since new key switches are coming out more and more um Brown and red have become really popular in the gaming market so we want to be able to provide more people more options um depending on like if you want it really heavy switch a light switch um just depends on what your preference is now tell me if you tell me about if you wanted a headset that was designed in collaboration with BMW how would you address that customer can can you do that for me I would say Let's uh look over here right now because I I think that's a pretty tall order I'm throwing at you here mind you uh we we cheated a little bit I I I I I did actually get a tour of the booth before we started you know what let's put ourselves right here and I'll get you to stand right here and you can talk about this I'm just going to lean over you here so tell me about the level 10m gaming headset okay so we just unveiled this this morning at computex in collaboration with BMW design Works USA it's our level 10m headset um it follows the design philosophy of what we've released in the past the level 10m Mouse and the level 10 case and level 10 GT case from thermal take so we collaborated with them a lot of design philosophies went in you can see it's a really um like heavy style like more um robust metal um so we we decided that we're going to come out with a headset that's uh really durable um really stylish and something that um a lot of people will enjoy so show me some of the robustness like this looks like this looks like metal components here that are part of the sliding mechanism and uh and show show me the microphone the way it moves okay so yeah the um the main framework of the headset is alum umum so we want to keep it like lightweight but durable um and really really hard uh mold injected plastic for the ear cups um has 40 M 4 40 mm uh sound drivers on it um and the microphone is uh really really flexible so you can position it um it's got like a joint in here you can position it depending on your preference you can switch the cable from the left to right side pretty easily um sometimes you know your desktop might be on the right or the left side so depending on how you want the key board uh the the sorry the headset cable to to switch uh positions you can do that with well I actually I mean the way that I configure my system is I like to have my headphone cable draping across WD so that um so that I can actually do both forward and back movement at the same time just by pressing on the cable do do you think that that's an optimal setup I I mean I don't think it's optimal but you can still do that with this headset awesome so I have the power yeah definitely so yeah definitely check this out uh we just announced it on uh this morning so it's going to be out on of course you're covering it but you can uh also research it on our website uh it's straight on the front page awesome we got one more thing that we want to have a look at over here so show us show us this guy okay so for people that commute definitely sometime a problem is that you have to buy separate headphones between gaming and commuting um you want to listen to music on the subway or the the bus or whatever um so we designed a Bluetooth ready headset set um that's also compatible with gaming so so what you can do is uh it's a gaming headset first and foremost so you have the microphone but when you want to take it out on the go you can actually unplug and have it Bluetooth ready with your phone so you can stream music from your phone in your pocket and just have it on wirelessly and so can you give us a little can you give us a little twirl twirl here show show us yeah there thank you do do a little turn on the catwalk yeah little model work and uh another interesting thing about this is even if you don't really need the microphone you can detach the cable and plug straight into your PC so you have the option of using uh microphone no microphone PC wireless and you can charge through USB so it's a really Sleek headset we're kind of uh aiming to simplify the style a little bit so it's not so much a look at me when I'm commuting it's more of a just I want to relax I want to get ready for work things like that but you do have look at me products can you pull one of those down for me really quick I want like just for contrast guys thermaltake has such an enormous range of products available on headsets here let's uh let's let's let's let's get this let's get this up so if I didn't want to wear this on the subway I could wear that instead and I would have every I would have the entire gamut of designed in collaboration with BMW and kind of striking but very stylish I'd have that sort of that wow holy crap look at this guy he's got a gold headset on and then you've got the more like uh you know some guy who just wants to chill and though please don't look at me yeah I mean the design Philosophy for our company is that we want to have something for everyone whether you want to simple um Sleek design or you want something a little bit more colorful a little bit more complicated I mean we have something for everyone we have you know we have a headset for Xbox Gamers we have um simplified mechanical keyboards for people that want a really like Sleek desktop so um we make something for everyone so it's it's kind of our design philosophy we keep coming out with new products and that's going to hit a different style so that's what we're looking forward to it's not all style sometimes there's a performance reason for what you do so right here what what have you done here exactly okay so uh Theon has been a really successful Mouse for us a lot of people like it so we want to offer um new color options so we have uh white red and yellow coming out um with a glossy finish so just depending on the style we have uh the old traditional Theon was uh rubber coating so we wanted to add a little bit more options comes with the same great laser sensor that's in um the the original Theon but here we have a new option which is a Theon infrared it has a new infrared Optical sensor and this is uh built to improve tracking for your gaming but it's also lower cost it's going to come out about $10 us cheaper than the original Theon was so it's a lower cost high performance option for this mouse so to be clear for 69 or $79.99 so for 80 bucks plus about 55 bucks could you could you get a combo here that you you would feel comfortable using regardless of who you you pretty much are yeah I mean it's simple enough um but it's also stylish enough um to really take your game up to the next level um I even actually game with these two uh Theon infrared and the Poseidon keyboard right now I play a lot of Starcraft so I'm really confident in the fact that you can perform with these products so okay I actually didn't know that I did not I did not cheat on that one so thank you very much for joining us this has been absolutely fantastic guys don't miss any of our computex 23 coverage and again thank you very much thank you"}
