00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.440
I don't know about you but I am sick of the same old Brands raising their prices

00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:12.040
whenever they feel like it I think it's time to move on to someone new someone

00:00:08.440 --> 00:00:15.240
hungrier with fire in their belly wait I

00:00:12.040 --> 00:00:17.920
know red dragon um actually there's only

00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:23.199
one D so wouldn't it be red dragon or red

00:00:18.840 --> 00:00:25.279
dragon no red dragon and they make more

00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:30.519
than just budget oriented peripherals these days they have such a broad lineup

00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:35.640
including PC components that we could easily build a sick battle

00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:40.480
station and save some money by ditching the mainstream carriers and flying

00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:44.520
Scarlet Drake the only question is does Red Dragons still just focus on stuff

00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:48.920
you'd buy for your little brother or have they leveled up to manufacturing

00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:55.199
gear you'd want to buy for yourself just like I've leveled up this segue to our

00:00:52.239 --> 00:01:00.359
sponsor signal RGB ditch the proprietary software and control the RGB lighting of

00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:02.440
over a 100 brands using a single clean

00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:06.839
interface with hundreds of effects and game Integrations check it out using our

00:01:04.559 --> 00:01:06.839
link

00:01:13.320 --> 00:01:18.720
today red dragon makes a lot of what we're going to need to complete our

00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:23.159
setup but they don't make everything so we're going to start with a speed round

00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:29.200
of the parts that invoke smog without being red dragon TM if you know what I

00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:32.960
mean starting with the AMD ryzen 7 5800

00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:36.079
x3d team Red's am4 gaming Beast okay

00:01:32.960 --> 00:01:38.320
we've also got an Asus b450m Dragon

00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:45.799
motherboard it's called dragon and it's red 32 gigs of gskill ddr4 at 2600 megat

00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:54.680
transfer per second Bridges look so fine they get donkey excited and of course an

00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:58.439
adata xpg sx8100 NP SSD that uh if you

00:01:54.680 --> 00:02:02.520
squint the logo looks like a

00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:04.960
dragon no squint squint more moving on

00:02:02.520 --> 00:02:09.319
while red dragon does actually make some older RAM and SSD products for markets

00:02:07.399 --> 00:02:13.000
like Brazil in India we struggled to find a source that both had them in

00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:17.200
stock and was able to ship them to us and besides we wanted to focus more on

00:02:15.519 --> 00:02:22.080
the parts that you might actually consider for your next rig like this

00:02:19.640 --> 00:02:30.080
case the GC 2118m grind off an option that seems to

00:02:25.920 --> 00:02:32.040
be available in Far More regions

00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:38.360
huh that's actually pretty roomy for an matx chassis and it features tempered

00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:43.280
glass on both the side and front for a

00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:44.959
180° view 180 red dragon not 270 math

00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:48.920
s's aside this thing looks kind of decent it's got a removable fan filter

00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:52.720
on the top it's got these reverse airflow fans so that you don't have to

00:02:50.840 --> 00:03:00.000
look at the ugly backs side of the Hub and oh that's interesting these two fans

00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:01.280
are actually one unit so the convenient

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:04.480
part is that you can plug them in with just one cable but the inconvenient part

00:03:03.080 --> 00:03:08.480
is that you can't separate them and put them somewhere else got a fan Mount down

00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:13.040
here that'll draw a fresh air in from another filtered intake on the bottom

00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:16.680
and oh look at that it's even compatible with back to front

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:20.400
motherboards I kind of like it now that that's all in there and looking pretty

00:03:18.480 --> 00:03:23.959
good I might add it's time for cooling which is going to be handled by the HL

00:03:21.959 --> 00:03:30.799
360 AR argb CCW 3014 argb okay we got a

00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:37.000
complete completely different product from what we ordered but it looks the

00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:39.239
same it looks like a generic AI cooler

00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:44.640
which makes sense because it's kind of a generic AO cooler I do like though that

00:03:42.720 --> 00:03:49.760
red dragon has helpful graphics on the product page that show the size and flow

00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:56.000
path for the radiator and I also like the infinity mirror and included fluid

00:03:52.480 --> 00:03:57.959
Dynamic bearing fans with that said

00:03:56.000 --> 00:04:00.239
looking at their claims about the pump I'm not sure if I can believe that they

00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:07.360
mirror is truly infinite or that their bearings

00:04:03.040 --> 00:04:10.120
are truly fluidly Dynamic 20 DB since

00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:15.720
I'm complaining red dragon your website I have some notes that desperate little

00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:20.600
animation on the add to cart button that is super annoying I understand how

00:04:18.799 --> 00:04:26.400
online shopping works you guys and I will add this thing to my cart when I am

00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:28.199
gosh danged ready also while there is no

00:04:26.400 --> 00:04:32.639
one right way to run a company that ships all around the world there there

00:04:29.880 --> 00:04:38.080
are wrong ways and having very different websites for different regions with then

00:04:35.320 --> 00:04:43.840
separated product focused and sales focused sites makes buying directly from

00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:45.680
you a very low confidence experience

00:04:43.840 --> 00:04:50.240
also while we're at it can you please clearly Mark the products or even entire

00:04:47.840 --> 00:04:54.560
categories that you no longer sell I was quite disappointed to find out that none

00:04:52.280 --> 00:05:00.320
of these gaming chairs were available at least we can still get power supplies

00:04:56.479 --> 00:05:03.560
like the red dragon PSU 007 an 80 plus

00:05:00.320 --> 00:05:06.560
gold 850 W ATX fully modular power

00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:09.800
supply with 80 plus gold certified

00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:12.720
compact 160 mm size and low noise RGB

00:05:09.800 --> 00:05:17.479
fan Zer RPM comma 100% Japanese capacitors comma full mod cables and no

00:05:16.080 --> 00:05:21.840
I didn't just read out the entire description in textback that is the

00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:27.840
title of this power supply on their web page wow that title really drags

00:05:25.080 --> 00:05:32.479
on jokes about the title aside this is actually a reasonably compelling looking

00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:35.960
package and it doesn't immediately feel cheap and garbage maybe we'll have to

00:05:34.520 --> 00:05:42.560
have the lab take a look at it and make up a little test report David do you think we could do that heck yeah sounds

00:05:39.880 --> 00:05:46.400
good look at it's even got the 12vt 2x6 connector and everything fully

00:05:51.280 --> 00:05:57.600
modular just need to finish up the cable

00:05:54.680 --> 00:06:02.240
management don't look at that uh instead look at this the one last part we have

00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:07.000
for our build that is not made by Red Dragon as they don't currently make

00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:11.919
graphics cards although we did notice that there is a GPU option in their drop

00:06:09.560 --> 00:06:16.000
down that doesn't go anywhere yet so I don't know what's

00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:21.240
going on with that maybe they just have a member on their team who really wishes

00:06:18.440 --> 00:06:24.599
that they made gpus or maybe they have a member on their team who really just

00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:29.840
doesn't care about managing their website either way we went with this Red

00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:32.199
Devil 5700 XT from powercolor

00:06:29.840 --> 00:06:36.319
what Devils have horns dragons have horns besides once it's all together

00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:42.599
who's going to call me on it that looks pretty good doesn't it great job red

00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:44.039
dragon and adjacent let's fire it up oh

00:06:42.599 --> 00:06:48.520
before we can do that we're going to need some peripherals we couldn't find a

00:06:46.039 --> 00:06:53.240
ton of information at least in English on the coral 2 Gaming monitor what does

00:06:51.240 --> 00:07:00.240
coral have to do with Dragons exactly more than the PSU O7 80 plus gold okay

00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:03.879
okay okay I get it any who it's 14 40p

00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:08.440
apparently overclocks to 180 HZ with a 1

00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:13.080
millisecond response time ow and the

00:07:08.440 --> 00:07:16.080
website says VA curved or IPS but claims

00:07:13.080 --> 00:07:19.240
a 1,00 to1 contrast ratio meaning I

00:07:16.080 --> 00:07:23.199
guess it's IPS oh that's the coral one

00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:26.240
so it's IPS probably VA that is a cheap

00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:28.599
ugly power brick oh wow yeah and that is

00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:34.080
a not height adjustable stand oh this one at least has DisplayPort well the

00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:38.599
corl one not is on the website it says VGA and HDMI I don't know if that's true

00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:45.039
because their website is very unreliable big

00:07:41.400 --> 00:07:48.240
moment hey all the RGB Works let's

00:07:45.039 --> 00:07:50.599
go those of you wondering by the way uh

00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:56.680
yes I reversed that one fan on purpose nocta posted a blog post recently where

00:07:53.159 --> 00:07:58.319
they found that um intaking air right at

00:07:56.680 --> 00:08:02.720
the top front of the case and then immediately exhausting it was actually

00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:05.879
detrimental for cooling so I was like why don't we try having three intakes at

00:08:04.280 --> 00:08:10.400
the front and then two at the back for positive pressure and to avoid that

00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:17.720
situation now I just need some inputs and for that we've got oh good three

00:08:14.280 --> 00:08:21.039
anime products or at least two anime

00:08:17.720 --> 00:08:22.479
products nope three anime products um

00:08:21.039 --> 00:08:27.039
red dragon you know you don't have to put anime in the product name right I

00:08:25.080 --> 00:08:30.440
can see that it's anime starting with the mouse pad wow do they ever make some

00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:36.399
bold claim skin-friendly waterproof coated lint

00:08:33.719 --> 00:08:39.800
roll are they saying that it is a lint roller or that they lint rolled it

00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:45.399
before they shipped it to you look at this print quality oh

00:08:42.479 --> 00:08:48.720
no that is some really unimpressive it's got texture that would be really that's

00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:54.839
going to peel in like a week huh remember that bit recently

00:08:52.120 --> 00:09:00.040
where Lisa Zooms in on Andrew's crotch and it's all caught in 4k when I was

00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:03.640
feeling the texture I was like

00:09:00.040 --> 00:09:07.120
that is a really light Mouse which is a

00:09:03.640 --> 00:09:09.640
feature these days but also just kind of

00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:13.720
feels cheap with that said the specs seem like it should be pretty decent it

00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:19.600
features both Bluetooth and dongle connections with 1,000 HZ pulling rate

00:09:15.880 --> 00:09:23.279
and it handles up to 26,000 DPI using

00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:24.839
what is probably a pixart PW 3395 sensor

00:09:23.279 --> 00:09:30.600
we say probably because the website doesn't really have much in the way of useful information wow this is a Vibe

00:09:29.040 --> 00:09:37.240
already and we haven't even got the keyboard on here yet the starblade k77

00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:40.519
pro this is probably the strongest entry from Red Dragon which kind of makes

00:09:38.800 --> 00:09:44.399
sense because I think this is kind of how they got their start was budget

00:09:42.440 --> 00:09:51.800
gaming keyboards in this case it operates in USBC Bluetooth or 2.4 GHz

00:09:47.760 --> 00:09:53.320
mode it's got noise dampening foam Time

00:09:51.800 --> 00:09:58.760
5 and actually sounds pretty darn good

00:09:56.839 --> 00:10:06.240
according to Red Dragon it uses custom lubed linear mint Mambo switches and it

00:10:02.920 --> 00:10:08.040
even offers a Mac and PC mode not a bad

00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:13.680
little package how much does it cost it's currently 56 bucks on sale really I

00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:17.760
mean definitely a little bit plasticky but in terms of how it actually feels

00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:22.000
it's not bad and the mouse is cheaper than we thought it's like between 20 and

00:10:19.839 --> 00:10:25.880
35 bucks depending on which variant you go with not going to lie I'm actually

00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:32.440
feeling kind of good about this setup right now like this thing is whisper Qui

00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:34.360
quiet at idle which sure it's idling but

00:10:32.440 --> 00:10:38.600
a bad fan is a bad fan and it's not going to be quiet at any speed and you

00:10:37.079 --> 00:10:44.120
know yeah obviously this isn't the world's most amazing 180 HZ display but

00:10:41.880 --> 00:10:48.839
it's 180 freaking Hertz and the mouse feels great great for 20 bucks what is

00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:55.200
it 25 20 it was 20 bucks on sale for the yellow one how would you like to feel a

00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:56.839
whole lot worse okay here's some more

00:10:55.200 --> 00:11:00.839
really not impressive looking accessories oh

00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:13.399
that headband though it feels better

00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:17.560
than I expected oh joy it doesn't go all the way up uh maybe in the dark it goes

00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:24.120
up higher maybe the surge frostbite

00:11:19.959 --> 00:11:27.600
Soundbar will be better with its oh wow

00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:29.480
style five programmed backlight patterns

00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:33.839
when you lead with that on your sound bar tells you that sound quality was not

00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:37.920
your top priority uh let's go ahead and put this here and what else you got I've

00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:44.480
got the Hitman webcam it's called the GW 800 online uh but when we got the box

00:11:40.959 --> 00:11:46.720
it's got a different name so Au mode is

00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:50.560
it Bluetooth oh it does about Bluetooth no way okay that makes it a little bit

00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:55.720
more comp you know what it's kind of cool looking in an I'm 14 and no girls

00:11:53.560 --> 00:12:00.519
have ever been to my bedroom kind of way how much is it $60 all right oh we got

00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:06.279
to try the camera hey there we go the webcams working how do I look uh oh wow

00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:13.160
does not like that light above me that's for sure see yeah I would say the detail

00:12:10.760 --> 00:12:17.279
level is fairly low you can barely make out the amazing motherboard pattern on

00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:22.800
this 64 Oz water bottle from LD store.com these headphones are horrible

00:12:20.800 --> 00:12:27.320
I don't doubt it for one second why did we pick this game I'll give you three

00:12:25.399 --> 00:12:32.720
guesses and the first two don't count how do the mouse and keyboard feel

00:12:29.199 --> 00:12:34.560
honestly kind of okay I'd need to play a

00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:39.079
competitive FPS or something to really know how the mouse is but so far it

00:12:37.199 --> 00:12:42.440
seems great for what it is the performance of the PC doesn't really

00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:46.240
matter because red dragon doesn't make any of the parts that contribute to that

00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:53.800
but I am a little confused that we're running Skyrim at between 35 and 59 FPS

00:12:51.120 --> 00:12:57.839
so it does feel a little kind of lagy I just like the sound of that keyboard I

00:12:54.959 --> 00:13:03.079
think it sounds premium for its price oh definitely for $55 bucks red dragon

00:13:00.839 --> 00:13:08.199
definitely looking good in their like core competencies here even this monitor

00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:13.440
the colors are not great but the clarity is there yeah I would it doesn't look

00:13:11.160 --> 00:13:18.760
like VA dude I think the pixel response time is too good to be VA I like this

00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:22.959
yeah yeah it doesn't feel cheap anymore once I'm gaming it only feels cheap if

00:13:20.519 --> 00:13:26.839
I'm like analyzing it but the clicks are nice they're balanced they're not too

00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:30.959
light not too heavy I think the mouse is the Highlight for me yeah even though

00:13:28.800 --> 00:13:35.519
it's full price 36 bucks that's nothing to sneeze at now seems like a good time

00:13:32.920 --> 00:13:35.519
for us to try the

00:13:42.240 --> 00:13:47.480
soundar yeah okay we're struggling a little bit in this game but that's just

00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:53.560
down to the fact that we're using an older GPU overall this setup actually

00:13:50.560 --> 00:13:55.000
seems pretty decent if we put all modern

00:13:53.560 --> 00:13:59.720
Parts in it how much did we pay for all this it was about $690 for all the red

00:13:57.680 --> 00:14:06.279
dragon stuff we have today really really yep all the peripherals the monitor case

00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:08.000
cooler it's really competitively priced

00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:12.279
I thought it was uh going to be just a joke and a tear down of Everything But

00:14:10.160 --> 00:14:16.759
at the price that they are all this red dragon stuff's not so bad outside of the

00:14:14.320 --> 00:14:22.040
audio stuff the mouse pad actually like feels really good I actually really like

00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:26.759
the case too I think it feels a little cheap sure but for 80 Buck yeah for 80

00:14:24.800 --> 00:14:31.000
bucks yeah with two tempered glass panels and pretty modern features it's

00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:36.000
hard for me to say that I would buy them for myself with so many other options

00:14:33.800 --> 00:14:41.079
available but it's also worth noting that red dragon seems to mostly focus on

00:14:38.560 --> 00:14:44.120
continents not called North America from a quick browse of their product

00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:48.360
selection in those other markets it seems like even if riding the Vermilion

00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:52.360
worm might not make sense for everything over here although some things are

00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:56.279
pretty good it could be a really great experience somewhere like Brazil or

00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:59.920
India maybe leave a comment down below with your red dragon experience we're

00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:04.959

dragon perfume and cologne and also what appears to be a moderately successful

car detailing product line what do they just have you like like breathe fire and

00:15:12.399 --> 00:15:18.680
burn away the dirt do they also make descalers for your coffee pot I'm just

00:15:16.839 --> 00:15:23.120
winging it at this that's what happens when he goes too long without telling
