00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:06.040
Linus Tech tips coverage of computex 2016 is brought to you by the Corsair

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:11.200
lap dog the gaming center that allows you to use a full-size keyboard and

00:00:07.520 --> 00:00:13.880
mouse from your couch and by

00:00:11.200 --> 00:00:18.199
MSI so we're here in the Corsair booth and they're showing off this is like

00:00:16.720 --> 00:00:23.760
unbelievable I didn't even know these guys make memory anymore I mean it's

00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:25.840
like keyboards This and like cases that

00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:29.679
and guys like George coming in going we should do cases power supplies and

00:00:27.439 --> 00:00:36.280
cooling well no no no this is a back to the RO product this right here is the

00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:39.040
Dominator Platinum special edition ddr4

00:00:36.280 --> 00:00:44.120
kit well kits there are actually two of them there's like a dark plated one and

00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:45.480
a light plated one and the Vengeance LED

00:00:44.120 --> 00:00:49.199
so I'm going to start with the Vengeance LED since that's the one that may

00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:54.239
actually have some relevance to more than a handful of you they've taken

00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:58.879
their Vengeance ID which is kind of that sort of sexy Corsair logo in the middle

00:00:56.879 --> 00:01:02.559
and then accents on the outsides and they've added LED to them they're going

00:01:00.519 --> 00:01:07.720
to be available in two different colors red and white to start and they support

00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:11.840
a couple of different LED lighting modes so you can see here they're not RGB so

00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:16.280
they don't cycle colors but they're able to kind of breathe and turn on and off

00:01:13.720 --> 00:01:21.360
and stuff like that the software is very very beta right now but it's going to be

00:01:18.320 --> 00:01:22.680
controllable through Corsair link and I

00:01:21.360 --> 00:01:26.600
guess that's pretty much all there is to say about it there are dual Channel kits

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:31.200
and quad Channel kits available all the way up to frequency is as high as 4,300

00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:36.320
meh now let's get on to the special edition

00:01:33.960 --> 00:01:41.840
now I hate it when companies do a special edition that's basically just SE

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:46.880
and there's no sort of limited quantity because you know what the SE stands for

00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:49.360
in those cases like well you you know

00:01:46.880 --> 00:01:55.439
what the S is for an addition okay it's usually just like we need to sell this

00:01:51.320 --> 00:01:58.320
thing um what what can we put on the box

00:01:55.439 --> 00:02:04.159
SE terrible so no these are going to be limited to 500 units each only 500 units

00:02:03.039 --> 00:02:10.959
will be available they will be individually numbered and these are a

00:02:06.240 --> 00:02:12.959
dominator Platinum LED lit memory kit so

00:02:10.959 --> 00:02:18.239
there's going to be a 4x8 for the quad Channel enthusiasts and a 2x6 for guys

00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:24.519
running on the z170 platform and they are running at ddr4 3200 now no one in

00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:30.239
the booth can confirm or deny this for me but I would speculate that if they

00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:32.840
were doing a handpicked 500 unit run

00:02:30.239 --> 00:02:36.959
that 3200 probably isn't the max that you could expect these to run at and

00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:40.480
they are going to look absolutely sick in your system which as you guys

00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:51.239
probably know is pretty much how I shop for memory these days now this this is

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:55.080
cool this is the MSI Corsair Seahawk GTX

00:02:51.239 --> 00:02:57.440
1080 now they did a 980 TI before so

00:02:55.080 --> 00:03:02.760
this isn't an entirely New Concept Corsair working on the cooler MSI I

00:03:00.040 --> 00:03:08.080
working on the GPU itself and slapping all that together for a cool quiet

00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:13.440
maximum overclocking gaming experience but the big difference this time is that

00:03:10.799 --> 00:03:19.720
even though this product is kind of hiding in a corner in the booth because

00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:22.519
they don't have a finalized PCB layout

00:03:19.720 --> 00:03:26.400
they don't have finalized clock speeds I mean I wouldn't even be surprised if the

00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:31.080
back plate graphic design isn't even finalized they are claiming that instead

00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:37.080
of being 9 months late this time there are going to be two weeks after the

00:03:34.720 --> 00:03:41.959
general availability of GTX 1080 graphics cards and ready to start

00:03:39.720 --> 00:03:48.000
selling this puppy so thanks to the single 120 mm radiator and 120 mm fan

00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:51.760
Corsair is saying look we are removing all the thermal limitations and while

00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:57.959
NVIDIA was showing off clock speeds like 2 GHz at their launch event some folks

00:03:54.519 --> 00:04:01.280
on water are seeing significantly higher

00:03:57.959 --> 00:04:03.720
than that so thanks again to Corsair as

00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:08.120
well as to MSI oh actually that's funny look at that this product is made

00:04:06.200 --> 00:04:12.799
collaboratively by both of our sponsors for the show this year for bringing us

00:04:10.040 --> 00:04:18.000
to computex Corsair's Big Thing They want me to draw your attention to is the

00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:20.840
lap dog that couch mechanical keyboard

00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:26.479
full mouse pad gaming experience and for MSI they want me to be chatting you guys

00:04:23.280 --> 00:04:29.960
up about the agis X so that is their new

00:04:26.479 --> 00:04:33.840
desktop as well as their new GTX 108

00:04:29.960 --> 00:04:36.320
gaming X so that's obviously a GTX 1080

00:04:33.840 --> 00:04:41.160
although personally I think this one's cooler but whatever don't miss any

00:04:39.400 --> 00:04:46.360
lineus Tech tips computex coverage by making sure you're subscribed and I will

00:04:42.440 --> 00:04:46.360
