1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,960 don't worry we got this we got this we got this we got this we got this pull up pull up blah blah blah blah blah it's 2 00:00:04,500 --> 00:00:11,880 been oh my God it's got two power bricks attached it's been seven years since I 3 00:00:09,900 --> 00:00:15,839 have owned a laptop this thick and I can't imagine going back to something 4 00:00:13,740 --> 00:00:21,840 like this but here's the thing people must buy these things or origin PC 5 00:00:19,140 --> 00:00:28,619 wouldn't keep sponsoring me to talk about them which is what they did today 6 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:31,619 so who are you like why do you need a 7 00:00:28,619 --> 00:00:35,460 full-on desktop CPU why do you need an 8 00:00:31,619 --> 00:00:38,520 RTX 3080 with 16 gigs of gddr6 memory 9 00:00:35,460 --> 00:00:41,520 why do you need multiple m.2 storage 10 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:43,500 drives running in raid zero and why do 11 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:48,899 you need all of it in a laptop can you even call this a laptop 12 00:00:46,379 --> 00:00:52,680 it's actually kind of a good question if it's not a laptop then I guess it means 13 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,980 it doesn't have to compete with the portability of things like this it 14 00:00:54,539 --> 00:00:59,760 competes more with the portability of things like what you're looking at now 15 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:06,320 so maybe that's the justification either 16 00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:06,320 way let's take a closer look shall we 17 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:19,020 we've talked a lot over the years about the way that mobile CPUs have 18 00:01:16,740 --> 00:01:22,680 dramatically narrowed the gap between themselves and their desktop 19 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:27,119 counterparts but in response to my question at the beginning of this video 20 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:30,000 that is one of the main reasons that 21 00:01:27,119 --> 00:01:34,560 someone might look at the Eon 17x or a similar desktop replacement laptop 22 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:42,420 because inside this thing you will find not a mobile CPU but a full fat Desktop 23 00:01:38,579 --> 00:01:45,720 Intel Core I9 11900k that is not just 24 00:01:42,420 --> 00:01:48,180 eight cores 16 threads of up to 5.3 25 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:52,860 gigahertz goodness but it's actually overclockable although I guess it 26 00:01:51,060 --> 00:01:56,280 remains to be seen just how far we'll be able to push it now right now I'm 27 00:01:54,420 --> 00:01:59,700 actually running a single threaded Benchmark and we're going to have a look 28 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:05,700 at whether we can actually reach that 5.3 gigahertz mark this is a very odd 29 00:02:03,899 --> 00:02:11,280 performance profile that they've got this thing tuned with I mean we've got 30 00:02:08,099 --> 00:02:13,860 six of our a cores that are sitting up 31 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:16,980 near five gigahertz even though I'm only running a single threaded Benchmark and 32 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:20,760 that fan listen to it go they're serious about 33 00:02:19,379 --> 00:02:25,500 keeping that thing cool we're gonna have to open this thing up later we did touch 34 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:29,099 5.3 gigahertz as advertised though more importantly I want to see what we 35 00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:32,940 settled in at in terms of temps whoa can you hear it taking off Andy we're headed 36 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:37,560 straight to the Moon that's why origin PC is space themed I guess now's as good 37 00:02:35,700 --> 00:02:41,280 a time as any to talk about i o and cooling because it's a desktop 38 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:45,720 replacement you are really looking at more of a desktop tier of i o on the 39 00:02:44,099 --> 00:02:51,660 right you're going to find dual Thunderbolt 4 ports USB type A we've got 40 00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:57,120 our dual power bricks here and they really do put the brick in power brick 41 00:02:54,720 --> 00:03:02,220 they're quite substantial on the back we've got I love this lots of display 42 00:02:59,819 --> 00:03:05,940 outputs we've got a USB type-c that can also be used for DisplayPort two more 43 00:03:04,260 --> 00:03:12,599 mini display ports so you could actually run a triple monitor setup at three by 44 00:03:09,540 --> 00:03:14,700 eight K we've also got an HDMI 2.1 so 45 00:03:12,599 --> 00:03:19,319 you could do another 8K 30 Hertz display out of that one two and a half gigabit 46 00:03:16,319 --> 00:03:21,599 Ethernet then over on the left side 47 00:03:19,319 --> 00:03:27,060 you've got an SD card reader two more USB type A's a line in Jack and a 48 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:30,540 headphone microphone combo Jack now of course they would have packed more i o 49 00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:34,379 into it if they hadn't been busy packing in cooling you just watch Andy this is 50 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:40,200 soon to be an industry standard benchmark pill the sails 51 00:03:38,940 --> 00:03:44,400 look at this look how far away from it I am as much 52 00:03:42,540 --> 00:03:49,739 as I might joke about it though the fans are doing an absolutely outstanding job 53 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:54,000 of keeping this thing cool all the surfaces of this device are actually 54 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:57,900 cool to the touch most importantly the wasd section of the keyboard is one of 55 00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:01,980 the coolest sections and you can see even though we just finished our 10 56 00:03:59,879 --> 00:04:07,379 minute stress test in cinebench R23 we're running at 92 degrees 4.4 57 00:04:05,159 --> 00:04:12,060 gigahertz now you'll notice see how it just jumped up to 4.5 so what it's doing 58 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:16,079 is it's opportunistically turboing as high as it can it's actually running up 59 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:20,340 against a Core Power and core thermal limit and then it's going back down to 60 00:04:17,699 --> 00:04:25,040 still a very respectable 4.4 gigahertz that is kind of incredible and you can 61 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:31,440 wow now that the facts have turned down yeah it's very quiet now that is a full 62 00:04:28,740 --> 00:04:35,460 desktop grade 14 000 points instead of match R23 63 00:04:33,060 --> 00:04:40,919 obviously origin sent over one of their custom HD UV prints so this is actually 64 00:04:37,860 --> 00:04:42,720 printed directly onto the chassis of the 65 00:04:40,919 --> 00:04:46,440 laptop it's not like a sticker or anything like that and they've got all 66 00:04:44,460 --> 00:04:50,940 kinds of customization that they can do so they're hydro dipping laser etching 67 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:55,080 it's one of the things that sets them apart because you know obviously a lot 68 00:04:53,460 --> 00:05:00,660 of companies make gaming laptops but if you want yours to look really different this is definitely a way to go about it 69 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:03,900 it's also worth noting that origin PC offers thin and light Laptop Solutions 70 00:05:02,280 --> 00:05:08,100 as well and you can check out some of the special offers they're running at the link down below let's pop this puppy 71 00:05:07,139 --> 00:05:16,680 open removable battery remember those this is a 97 watt hour 72 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:19,440 unit so it's getting really close to the limit to what you can put in a laptop 73 00:05:18,060 --> 00:05:22,860 before you can't carry it on a plane anymore but if you have to ask how long 74 00:05:21,060 --> 00:05:26,759 this thing goes on battery then you probably aren't the correct customer for 75 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:32,039 it just saying man look at the size 76 00:05:30,180 --> 00:05:36,539 of the hands here Andy I mean it shouldn't surprise me given how much air 77 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:41,280 they were moving but still look at the length of these screws are you 78 00:05:38,699 --> 00:05:46,220 compensating for something is it really that easy 79 00:05:42,919 --> 00:05:49,220 holy crap I don't remember the last time 80 00:05:46,220 --> 00:05:51,660 I saw a mobile device that was actually 81 00:05:49,220 --> 00:05:56,419 designed to have the bottom taken off that easily that's awesome 82 00:05:54,360 --> 00:06:05,479 oh wow I know right so the side heat sinks are 83 00:06:01,919 --> 00:06:08,400 pretty small but these back ones are 84 00:06:05,479 --> 00:06:13,919 huge this back heat sink goes all the way from here to here that's 85 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:20,400 can enormous and you got two of them this one in particular is massive it's 86 00:06:17,340 --> 00:06:22,620 that wide here's our mxm graphics card 87 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:28,620 and then our GPU memory is going to be built right onto that so this one right 88 00:06:25,319 --> 00:06:32,400 here has heat pipes going here 89 00:06:28,620 --> 00:06:34,680 here these are dedicated and this one 90 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:40,800 oh my God oh my God some of them wrap this one wraps all the way around to 91 00:06:38,340 --> 00:06:47,039 this guy right here these go all the way so the CPU actually doesn't get any 92 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:48,600 dedicated heat pipes all of them 93 00:06:47,039 --> 00:06:54,240 contribute to cooling the GPU as well and then you can actually see these heat 94 00:06:50,940 --> 00:06:56,100 pipes are connected to a vapor chamber 95 00:06:54,240 --> 00:07:01,080 so you've got your heat generation that gets spread out by a vapor chamber then 96 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:06,180 gets moved to all these four cooling Elements by all these heat pipes 97 00:07:03,180 --> 00:07:08,880 dang curiously origen doesn't specify 98 00:07:06,180 --> 00:07:12,720 how many watts this GPU is rated for on their website but that's okay we should 99 00:07:10,380 --> 00:07:16,860 be able to figure that out fairly easily with some diagnostic tools now before we 100 00:07:14,940 --> 00:07:21,180 get it opened up let's have a look at what we've got in terms of Drive 101 00:07:18,780 --> 00:07:26,400 expansion so you can see two of our slots are occupied over here we've got a 102 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:28,319 couple of MP 600 one terabyte drives and 103 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:32,400 those can be configured in RAID 0 if you're into that sort of thing they sent 104 00:07:30,479 --> 00:07:36,240 them to us not configured to RAID 0 because we are not into that sort of 105 00:07:34,620 --> 00:07:40,800 thing so much and then there's an additional two slots one over here and 106 00:07:38,940 --> 00:07:48,479 one over here so you could put a total of four m.2 drives in here absolute mad 107 00:07:45,300 --> 00:07:50,759 Lads now this is curious it looks like 108 00:07:48,479 --> 00:07:55,919 they've gone and applied thermal pads to the dram caches of these ssds so you can 109 00:07:54,360 --> 00:08:01,520 see that's how it's connected to this aluminum heat spreader here but not to 110 00:07:58,380 --> 00:08:04,139 the controller so I guess whether it's 111 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:07,259 airflow through the chat see which I don't really I don't really see of any 112 00:08:05,940 --> 00:08:11,520 around here or something else they determined that the dram caches needed 113 00:08:09,599 --> 00:08:15,000 it more than the controllers the odds of encountering a situation where an SSD 114 00:08:13,319 --> 00:08:19,740 would thermal throttle meaningfully in the real world pretty slim unless you're 115 00:08:17,340 --> 00:08:26,900 trying to kill your drive and there it is this is a maxed ass out 170 Watt peak 116 00:08:25,319 --> 00:08:33,360 typically sitting around 160 watt RTX 3080 and given that you can 117 00:08:31,199 --> 00:08:39,959 configure it with either a 4K 60hz display or as I actually preferred to go 118 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:42,419 with a 1080p 300hz display you may 119 00:08:39,959 --> 00:08:47,580 actually be able to make use of all of that performance of course given that 120 00:08:44,339 --> 00:08:50,880 each of these is good for 280 Watts 121 00:08:47,580 --> 00:08:54,000 surely it's equipped to hit the CPU and 122 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:56,160 GPU at the same time let's see how much 123 00:08:54,000 --> 00:09:03,120 of the power it pulls away from the GPU in order to run that CPU full bar wait 124 00:08:58,860 --> 00:09:06,000 3.5 oh wow it gave everything to the GPU 125 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:10,980 nope there it goes and there goes the other fan CPU fans going it's kicking 126 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:16,200 now obviously we can't a hundred percent trust the system's own reporting of how 127 00:09:14,339 --> 00:09:21,360 much power it's drawing but it certainly gives us a rough idea 128 00:09:18,140 --> 00:09:23,940 oh that's cool okay so you can really 129 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:28,740 see the power dynamics at play there's just a limit to what you can do for 130 00:09:26,580 --> 00:09:34,620 power delivery in a device like this so watch if I put furmark in the background 131 00:09:30,959 --> 00:09:36,180 so CPU package power spikes up GPU power 132 00:09:34,620 --> 00:09:43,200 goes down to something more conservative either way we're able to get well in 133 00:09:39,660 --> 00:09:47,459 excess of 300 watts on the CPU and GPU 134 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:49,080 alone which explains why we need two 280 135 00:09:47,459 --> 00:09:54,120 watt power bricks not because this thing can actually suck 136 00:09:51,260 --> 00:09:57,779 560 Watts but because in addition to doing this it's got to run the drives 137 00:09:55,740 --> 00:10:01,440 the fans the RGB lighting all of that other stuff it also has to be able to 138 00:09:59,279 --> 00:10:06,000 charge the battery while it's doing all of that so it's not that you couldn't 139 00:10:02,820 --> 00:10:07,860 run it with a single power brick watch 140 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:11,880 it's going it's just 141 00:10:09,560 --> 00:10:16,560 there you go I'm sorry I'm sorry please forgive me let's take a look at what 142 00:10:14,100 --> 00:10:20,700 those power numbers look like running an actual game so what you want I knew you 143 00:10:19,260 --> 00:10:24,360 were going to want flight Sim what is with the obsession nobody actually plays 144 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:30,120 that game I didn't mean nobody uses it obviously it's popular program just 145 00:10:26,279 --> 00:10:31,500 ain't no game son here we go Ultra I'm 146 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:36,420 not even gonna be able to take the plane off Andy so do you hear this thing going 147 00:10:33,660 --> 00:10:41,279 we are in a loading screen got some performance metrics up here we're 148 00:10:38,279 --> 00:10:43,740 managing around 52 FPS ladies and 149 00:10:41,279 --> 00:10:47,880 gentlemen okay throttle control to increase engine power gradually press 150 00:10:45,959 --> 00:10:52,019 and hold F3 oh it's a good thing there's nobody on this plane because otherwise 151 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:57,420 we'd all be dead to take off gently press number pad eight okay but oh 152 00:10:54,779 --> 00:11:02,040 gently how do you gently press a button oh look at this this anyone could do 153 00:10:59,279 --> 00:11:07,100 this hey see you later Vancouver to increase speed during climb okay number 154 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:11,820 pad two and we're headed for the ground uh do you know how to fly the plane oh 155 00:11:10,019 --> 00:11:16,380 my God I'm in the wrong seat I've moved to the co-pilot's chair anyone who 156 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:18,779 actually knows how to flight Sim is going to be very unimpressed with me 157 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:23,220 right now this is your captain speaking we are 158 00:11:20,940 --> 00:11:27,600 going to be visiting the United Media Group Warehouse often 159 00:11:25,560 --> 00:11:32,160 sorry I know origin this is supposed to be about your laptop it's kind of about 160 00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:34,440 your laptop like look you got your GPU 161 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:37,500 power 100 Watts or whatever oh no no no no no no no don't worry we got this we 162 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:47,820 got this we got this we got this we got this pull up so our GPU was anywhere from 100 to 120 163 00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:49,980 watts our CPU was a toasty boy up around 164 00:11:47,820 --> 00:11:55,800 80 degrees and our GPU was sitting at around 65 66. that's not bad it's not 165 00:11:52,920 --> 00:12:02,839 quiet but it's not bad yes this game runs on anything but it doesn't run at 166 00:11:58,860 --> 00:12:02,839 280 FPS on anything 167 00:12:10,519 --> 00:12:16,079 man where have 300 Hertz IPS displays 168 00:12:13,980 --> 00:12:21,899 been all my life the fans might be loud but if the speakers can make up for it 169 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:27,060 then maybe we get away with one here so there's your two stereo speakers 170 00:12:24,540 --> 00:12:33,120 and there's your subwoofer hold on I think there's more in the
