00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:08.840
today we're going to be showing off another PC from the NC PC laboratory so

00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:13.240
I'm in uh well you've got three guesses as to whose office we happen to be in

00:00:11.160 --> 00:00:17.560
here right now and uh the first two don't count so uh basically he's got a

00:00:15.639 --> 00:00:21.840
new system that we're working on for the end of the month and this is going to be

00:00:19.240 --> 00:00:25.760
our fastest Vesta PC ever this is the Vesta 6050 and it's actually going to be

00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:30.800
available in a couple different configurations so the one that we have

00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:32.719
here since this is a balls to the walls

00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:40.360
Performance Machine is actually featuring dual GTX 580s it has a 120 gig

00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:49.879
SSD it's got an assus Republic of Gamers Rampage 3 formula motherboard Core

00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:52.000
i5 I5 core i7 950 processor and it also

00:00:49.879 --> 00:00:56.760
has 12 gigs of RAM now the performance Edition comes with dedr 3600 and the

00:00:54.719 --> 00:01:01.760
base Edition actually has some key changes so it comes with DDR 31333 it

00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:06.080
cuts one of the graphics cards the performance one comes not only with an

00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:10.119
SSD but also with a large storage drive and the base one does not and then the

00:01:08.240 --> 00:01:15.320
power supply is another key one so the performance Edition comes with a tx850 W

00:01:12.479 --> 00:01:19.159
power supply and the base Edition does not now the whole point of this video is

00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:22.840
not just to show off the new system that we have coming out oh oh yeah they're

00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:26.960
both liquid cooled even though you can't see it so see look the liquid cooling is

00:01:25.360 --> 00:01:31.200
coming when we actually put it in the case which is going to be a fractal

00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:36.040
design Define ex cell so the base one uses an H50 and the performance one

00:01:33.240 --> 00:01:40.759
being the utter maximum system that it is uses a Corsair h70 liquid cooler but

00:01:39.320 --> 00:01:44.719
I also wanted to show you guys the testing and validation procedure that

00:01:42.600 --> 00:01:48.960
goes into these systems and has actually helped us catch a lot of problems before

00:01:47.320 --> 00:01:54.880
we release them to the general public for example we encountered a RAM kit

00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:59.560
that was uniformly incompatible with every Phenom 2 X4 and X6 processor on

00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:03.159
the market we had no way of knowing the specs said they should work but because

00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:06.880
of our validation procedures we were able to find out that the system was

00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:10.160
randomly locking up and that even though the parts weren't defective they didn't

00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:14.519
work together even though they should work together so basically we use a host

00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:18.640
of different programs and these are all Enthusiast grade programs not your you

00:02:16.760 --> 00:02:24.080
know Grandpa's benchmarking program so we use Linux as well as Prime 95 mem

00:02:21.440 --> 00:02:28.760
test and then for 3D we do a test with Vantage as well as furmark and with all

00:02:26.760 --> 00:02:33.959
of these prototype systems so far we've done at least some game play with an

00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:36.680
intensive game like Crisis uh Mafia 2 just to make sure that besides the

00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:41.599
synthetic benchmarks we're not going to run into any problems with a demanding

00:02:38.640 --> 00:02:47.720
modern game engine so this system this prototype won't be ready probably for

00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:49.440
another 4 to 5 days just because the uh

00:02:47.720 --> 00:02:53.200
the Crazy Russian needs to do a lot more of his crazy Russian stuff on it make

00:02:51.640 --> 00:02:56.560
sure that it passes all these tests overnight and it's just crazy stable and

00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:59.560
then we're going to be able to go ahead and release the system around this so

00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:03.720
thank you for checking out this little video on the validation process that

00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:09.480
goes on behind the scenes don't forget to check out ncpc on Facebook that is
