00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:05.440
our PAX Prime 2014 coverage is brought to you by hyperx Gaming products make

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:11.000
sure you click their logo to check out the great gaming content on their YouTube channel as well as Phantom glass

00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:16.920
the ultimate gorilla glass screen protector for your mobile device so I'm

00:00:13.719 --> 00:00:20.240
actually only here at PA Prime 2014 for

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:21.920
one day because there is one booth that

00:00:20.240 --> 00:00:26.560
has everything going on that I absolutely had to cover so we're here at

00:00:24.279 --> 00:00:32.960
Intel where they're launching not only three new CPUs but also a brand new chip

00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:36.320
set and finally they are launching well actually I don't know if they're

00:00:33.800 --> 00:00:41.000
launching that but they've got some PCI Express ssds over there as well that we

00:00:38.559 --> 00:00:45.960
are going to check out so inside this box right here is the all new and I'm

00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:51.760
going to try and get this right Intel new fourth generation extreme Edition

00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:55.000
processor 5960 okay whatever we're going to call it Haswell e because that's what

00:00:53.559 --> 00:01:00.559
I've been calling it for the last 6 months already anyway and it's the 5960x

00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:05.439
this is an octal core and I thought it was going to be octo but apparently it's

00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:07.360
octal according to Ida 64 so there you

00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:13.040
go it's an octal core processor that runs at 3 gz base and supports ddr4

00:01:10.600 --> 00:01:17.320
memory running on the x99 platform that means that when it comes to an absolute

00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:20.479
ultimate Performance Machine whether from a gaming perspective or from a

00:01:18.960 --> 00:01:24.960
Content creation or even from a workstation perspective this is pretty

00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:29.759
much it of course you're going to have to pay a pretty penny in order to get

00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:36.240
that quad Channel ddr4 support as well as has native support with no PCI

00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:39.079
splitting for up to 8X 8x8 x8x quad GPU

00:01:36.240 --> 00:01:44.560
operation now the obvious question here guys is what does anyone actually need

00:01:41.360 --> 00:01:47.240
an 8 core CPU for to which I would reply

00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:50.960
great question because we can't no no I'll come up with a different reason

00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:55.000
actually aside from gaming where most games are really limited to anywhere

00:01:52.520 --> 00:01:59.039
from one to four actual threads of utilization you could make the argument

00:01:56.960 --> 00:02:04.119
you don't really need it but multicore has always been about multitasking even

00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:07.960
when the first dual course came out I've heard that same argument as time has

00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:11.120
gone on well as Gamers we only need this many cor well it depends what you want

00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:17.160
to do in the background so we're actually going to have a video coming up

00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:19.239
soon where not only will we be streaming

00:02:17.160 --> 00:02:24.480
while gaming but we are also going to look at can you render an output video

00:02:22.160 --> 00:02:29.480
at the same time as gaming when you have this kind of horsepower now the extreme

00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:32.400
Edition as always is pretty darn expensive

00:02:30.440 --> 00:02:36.840
but don't worry you're not locked into just that one they've got the

00:02:33.959 --> 00:02:42.680
5930k as well as the 5820k which are both six cores now completing what is in

00:02:39.959 --> 00:02:47.599
my mind the most sensible CPU lineup That Intel has had in years you've got

00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:54.200
the mainstream platform which is your quad core and up to PCIe 8X 8X for dual

00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:57.120
card operation in SLI or Crossfire X

00:02:54.200 --> 00:03:02.200
then you pay a little bit more now and you get up to a six core on a much more

00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:06.280
robust bus platform it is an extremely exciting time and now we're popping over

00:03:04.480 --> 00:03:10.760
to something that's not actually a product release I mean this is just the

00:03:08.239 --> 00:03:16.080
p3700 it's got an Intel controller on it it's got a PCIe 4X interface it's got

00:03:13.640 --> 00:03:24.799
emlc so that's Enterprise great mlc nand on it and um this isn't new at all but I

00:03:19.760 --> 00:03:24.799
guess if we were to kind of you know

00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:30.760
infer based on that inside a consumer

00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:34.280
grade system you know Intel who's always so careful about the positioning of the

00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:38.080
products well this one is mainstream and this one is Enthusiast and this one is

00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:44.920
gaming they went and through this in what appears to be an Enthusiast gaming

00:03:40.799 --> 00:03:48.120
PC so maybe maybe we can draw some kind

00:03:44.920 --> 00:03:50.560
of conclusion about what the truly nextg

00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:55.159
SSD platform is going to be is it going to be SATA Express is it going to be m.2

00:03:53.480 --> 00:03:59.799
or are we going to be looking at some kind of product that's PCI Express based

00:03:57.799 --> 00:04:04.840
that delivers Enterprise grade performance in a desktop I guess there's

00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:07.680
only one way to find out by the way I just I have to do

00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:15.000
this they told me it doesn't work and told me to throw it on the ground so um

00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:17.519
if anyone's going to get in trouble it should be this

00:04:17.840 --> 00:04:23.400
guy all right guys don't miss any of our

00:04:21.239 --> 00:04:28.199
PX Prime 2014 coverage our trip to the show is brought to you by hyperx as well

00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:32.240
as Phantom glass check out the hyperx gaming channel on YouTube so so that's

00:04:29.919 --> 00:04:36.080
youtube.com/ kington hyperx they've got some great content over there and as for

00:04:34.080 --> 00:04:39.120
Phantom glass well they make some pretty badass screen protectors if we put one

00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:43.320
of those gorilla glass scen protectors on this SSD even if it was a working

00:04:41.039 --> 00:04:47.240
sample I could probably drop it although I'm sure Intel wouldn't be happy if I if

00:04:45.560 --> 00:04:52.759
I dropped a working sample can I drop this one I'm getting the no all right

00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.759
then
