00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.960
Linus tech tips coverage of ces 2015 is brought to you by phantom glass visit

00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:10.639
store.phantom.glass for the best darn screen protectors out there as well as

00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:15.280
hyperx so this is it we've got broadwell all

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:20.880
over the freaking place all of a sudden so Intel is trumpeting a variety of

00:00:19.279 --> 00:00:25.840
things about this so of course we've got slightly better performance per clock

00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:28.160
but the big story is has got to be power

00:00:25.840 --> 00:00:32.640
consumption so thanks to its extremely low power consumption and heat output

00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:37.120
broadwell is enabling a whole new class of devices for these guys so check this

00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:40.000
out this is actually a fully functional

00:00:37.120 --> 00:00:45.280
broadwell so this chip on here so right here this package has a CPU and GPU

00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:50.719
right here and then it's actually got a chipset right here that CPU goes

00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:53.360
anywhere from 1.1 to 2.6 gigahertz it's

00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:58.239
a dual core and the GPU even more impressively Intel's got some 3d mark

00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:03.680
ice storm stuff going on over here they're saying actually outperforms the

00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:05.840
recently announced tegra x1 where

00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:09.200
they're taking what they're calling it's actually kind of funny so for the first

00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:15.119
time they're taking a leadership position in 3d graphics in really any

00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:18.560
kind of space i mean who saw this one coming i mean probably the people paying

00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:22.240
very close attention to how much of the die size of recent Intel cpus is

00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:26.560
dedicated to graphics but other than that you didn't stand much of a chance

00:01:24.080 --> 00:01:31.680
also on this board is four gigs of RAM on the back you've got an interface that

00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:33.680
allows an SSD up to 512 gigs and Intel

00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:37.040
cheated a little bit here with me so they told me oh well Linus it only

00:01:35.600 --> 00:01:42.159
weighs here we can wait for our scale to go come on over here it only weighs uh

00:01:39.360 --> 00:01:46.640
12 grams but of course they didn't put the uh copper heatsink on it that

00:01:44.720 --> 00:01:53.759
obviously it's gonna need so let's go ahead and 12 grams that's a massive 14

00:01:51.360 --> 00:01:58.479
grams you liars so it's still the lightest pc that i've ever encountered

00:01:56.479 --> 00:02:02.000
uh we're gonna see this in a variety of different devices so this one's a pretty

00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:06.799
incredible little number just to make my point about how light it is here i'm

00:02:04.240 --> 00:02:11.200
gonna hold it by as tiny a corner as i possibly can that is how light this

00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:16.400
little panasonic device is i don't even know what this is this is the cfrz4

00:02:14.160 --> 00:02:20.800
it is a full-fledged computer yes full i o you've got your usb 3 super speed all

00:02:19.040 --> 00:02:25.520
that nonsense three of those gigabit Ethernet this is not a cut down device

00:02:22.959 --> 00:02:29.120
in any way and it is running a board like that inside we've got the other one

00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:32.800
here so this is the demo machine that they're using in order to make their

00:02:30.640 --> 00:02:36.640
point about how fast graphics are so you saw

00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:40.640
me just pull it off of the base the computer itself is not in the base of

00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:44.640
this device at all it is actually all up here same thing 1.1 turboing all the way

00:02:42.640 --> 00:02:48.400
up to 2.6 gigahertz this is some tomfoolery magic that they're doing

00:02:46.480 --> 00:02:52.879
because the power consumption of these chips is going to be anywhere from four

00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:58.480
and a half to six watts and then at the very high end 15 watts but thanks to

00:02:55.760 --> 00:03:01.680
their 14 nanometer manufacturing process and some little tricks with being able

00:02:59.920 --> 00:03:05.840
to push like massive amounts of current through it for microseconds at a time

00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:09.040
enabling exactly the performance you need when you need it you're able to

00:03:07.519 --> 00:03:12.239
achieve well the kinds of things that we're looking at right here and still

00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:15.920
have a device that doesn't get so hot you have to drop it i was hoping to get

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:20.319
more of a reaction from you guys i should have gone for a longer drop before i caught it usually i get people

00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:26.080
to freak out they've got another cool one here so this is actually more field

00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:27.519
this is not unfortunately uh broadwell

00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:31.519
so it's not exactly something that launched just now but the device itself

00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:35.840
launched today this is the venue eight from dell this has a two gigahertz quad

00:03:33.920 --> 00:03:42.560
core in it it's an Android based tablet and this is a pretty sick looking little

00:03:38.239 --> 00:03:46.159
device it's got an 8.4 inch 2560 by 1600

00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:47.519
OLED screen it's got two gigs of RAM 16

00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:52.640
gigs of storage on the model that i'm holding today and what's kind of cool about it is i don't know if you guys can

00:03:50.959 --> 00:03:55.920
see what's going on with this picture right here where it's like

00:03:54.480 --> 00:04:02.000
there's okay the background and foreground are shifting separately anyway it's got a 3d camera on the back

00:03:59.760 --> 00:04:08.239
which is a pretty neat little feature to have this is six millimeters thick and

00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:12.879
as far as Android tablets go it takes a fair bit to impress me but i'm impressed

00:04:10.959 --> 00:04:16.320
by how thin it is i'm impressed by how gorgeous it is and i'm impressed that

00:04:14.480 --> 00:04:20.239
Intel managed to get a design win in a tablet this small and this thin because

00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:24.400
they've been kind of beating this drum for a while and we haven't seen much

00:04:21.919 --> 00:04:28.639
success but here it is guys that is an absolutely beautiful little device to

00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:32.880
drive home the point because i mean oh yeah here's edison i've actually never

00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:37.040
touched one so the lightest computer in the world bluetooth wireless CPU all

00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:42.400
that kind of stuff on there that's pretty freaking cool so i've i've criticized Intel in the past

00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:46.400
particularly on our podcast saying you know it feels like they've abandoned you

00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:50.240
know the enthusiast a little bit you know they're not really giving us dual

00:04:48.080 --> 00:04:55.040
processor systems anymore and all that crazy stuff i actually happen to be

00:04:51.919 --> 00:04:56.800
standing in the same room as one of the

00:04:55.040 --> 00:05:00.800
uh one of the founders of the whole skull trail concept over at Intel where

00:04:59.520 --> 00:05:05.520
which is one of the things i love to hearken back to the last time they cared

00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:09.199
about us they gave us dual processors on a single motherboard they let us

00:05:07.280 --> 00:05:13.039
overclock the snot out of it those were the good old days but i don't know i

00:05:11.039 --> 00:05:17.199
guess another perspective on all that i'm still going to keep ragging on them

00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:20.560
until i see you know dual processors and on overclockable motherboards but i

00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:22.880
guess another perspective on that a point that Intel's trying to make and i

00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:28.639
kind of messed up the demo here but this is a demo that they actually showed off on

00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:34.320
skull trail back when they launched it in 2008 they had like minus 40 degree

00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:38.560
liquid cooling on the bloody thing in order to get this to even run hopefully

00:05:36.320 --> 00:05:41.600
there we go there's the pictures of the machine so we've got like a touch

00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:46.960
interface thing going on here this is the rig they had running dual processors

00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:49.680
quad gpus let's go ahead and okay we'll zoom in more i haven't actually used

00:05:48.400 --> 00:05:53.039
this before so i'm trying this for the first time anyway there we go that's

00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:57.840
what they were running that was the board it was running and they ran this

00:05:55.120 --> 00:06:03.199
demo and blew people away with it so what was that 350 000 photos or

00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.199
something like that

00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:11.919
okay about 300 billion pixels and being able to interact with it like this in

00:06:09.840 --> 00:06:15.680
real time was like this amazing thing holy crap look at what we built and then

00:06:14.080 --> 00:06:22.160
they kind of lift up the curtain here and show that they now have that demo

00:06:17.440 --> 00:06:23.360
from 2008 running on their new broadwell

00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:28.639
nook right there yes it's getting a little bit toasty no it doesn't seem

00:06:26.880 --> 00:06:34.560
particularly happy about running the demo but it is actually doing it so uh

00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:38.720
there you go i guess that's moore's law at work are they ignoring enthusiasts uh

00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:42.800
you could look at it that way or are they just making enthusiast hardware

00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:46.639
very different than it used to look in the past well that's what i'll say with

00:06:44.960 --> 00:06:50.160
all the Intel people watching me here in the suite either way it's a very cool

00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:54.400
demo and it's amazing to see how far we've come in six

00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:59.440
years i mean think about that oh i missed one bring bring please so this is

00:06:57.440 --> 00:07:04.639
another little cool this is another broadwell device so this is from ASUS

00:07:01.840 --> 00:07:09.520
same thing totally detachable tablet totally thin absolutely unbelievable

00:07:07.280 --> 00:07:14.240
this one doesn't have the 2.6 gigahertz turbosku in it um did you end up looking

00:07:11.840 --> 00:07:17.680
at the CPU speed is it about 2.6 all right well there you

00:07:15.840 --> 00:07:22.479
go i lied i misled you guys i'm very sorry i apologize it's only barely thick

00:07:20.880 --> 00:07:26.800
enough you can see there's just enough room for the panel

00:07:24.479 --> 00:07:32.240
the touch interface and then a three and a half millimeter jack that is it that

00:07:29.840 --> 00:07:36.319
is all the space there is on this tablet slash convertible slash two and one

00:07:34.479 --> 00:07:39.759
slash whatever marketing name there is for it these days so pretty amazing

00:07:38.400 --> 00:07:43.520
stuff going on here and i'm looking forward to more reviews of

00:07:42.080 --> 00:07:48.160
guys let me know what devices you want to see us check out and we will try to do that over the next little while also

00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:51.840
don't miss any of our ces coverage make sure you guys are subscribed and i want

00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:56.000
to spend a moment to give a huge shout out to our sponsors phantom glass visit

00:07:54.280 --> 00:07:58.639
store.phantom.glass for the best darn screen protectors out there you won't be

00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:03.440
able to see that there's a screen protector on my phone but it's because it's made of gorilla glass it is

00:08:01.919 --> 00:08:07.199
fingerprint resistant it is scratch resistant it has absolutely no bubbles

00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:12.080
under it i don't think you could put bubbles under a phantom glass screen protector if you tried so you can find a

00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:16.319
link to that in the video description below and also a shout out to kingston

00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:20.560
excuse me hyperx i hope they don't watch this one it's hyperx not kingston hyperx

00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:24.080
so check out the hyperx youtube channel over at youtube.com hyperx we've got a

00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:28.919
lot of great gaming content we'll have that linked in the video description as

00:08:25.919 --> 00:08:28.919
well
