00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,799
so thanks to MSI for bringing us here this year we would not be here without them you can check out all their

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:10,200
products that they're launching at this show in the description of the video down below also thank you to linda.com

3
00:00:08,639 --> 00:00:16,560
all right guys welcome to the ASUS Booth where we will be checking out the ASUS

4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:18,320
GTX 980 TI stricks and the RGB Claymore

5
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:22,800
keyboard so what's special about the stricks well it's featuring new direct

6
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:27,439
CU cooling 3 instead of direct CU cooling 2 which has three fans instead

7
00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:31,080
of two fans so if they keep going with this for a while they'll end up with six

8
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:35,559
fans on Direct C U6 but anyways regardless doesn't matter for heat pipes

9
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:40,520
they've got two 10 mm heat pipes two 6 mm heat pipes and 1 8 mm heat pipe

10
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:43,879
cooling it and a new design on those fans but we'll probably talk about those

11
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:47,399
more later if we get one of these for review back at the office in terms of

12
00:00:46,039 --> 00:00:51,840
performance there's some interesting stuff going on here uh at first I read

13
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:55,120
the little card and it was like oh GPU clock speed to be determined and memory

14
00:00:53,559 --> 00:01:00,239
clock speed to be determined but then they had their overclocking software open so I was able to figure out their

15
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:04,720
temps and everything but they said it's okay so I'll talk about it here in OC

16
00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:08,520
mode they're running at 12:47 on the core clock in gaming mode they're

17
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:12,240
running at 1228 and in silent mode they're also running at 1228 the reason

18
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:16,040
why the difference between gaming and silent mode is nothing is because in

19
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,680
silent mode your fans are going to run a little bit slower and your temperature

20
00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:24,880
will be a little bit higher but the performance should be more or less the same also their memory is running at an

21
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:30,400
unsurprising 7,010 MHz and with GPU tweak 2 you have a few options I know I

22
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:34,680
already said something about OC mode and gaming mode and silent mode but if you

23
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:37,880
go out of the kind of simple area of GPU tweak 2 which you can still see what

24
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:41,479
everything's currently running at the charts on the Le hand side but if you go

25
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,880
into the like I think it's called professional tab you can control things

26
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:50,320
like you would and say After Burner or GPU tweak 1 or Precision or whatever the

27
00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:54,000
heck software you decide to use to overclock your graphics card now you

28
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:58,680
might also notice that the cooler is pretty big it's a little bit longer than

29
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:03,560
the actual standard PCB and it's a fair amount taller but it isn't any thicker

30
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:06,880
so this is a dual slot card not a triple not a 2 and 1/2 none of that kind of

31
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:11,080
stuff so you'll be able to fit fine with two slots but please do note it is

32
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:14,680
taller and it is longer when you're looking for case compatibility now

33
00:02:12,920 --> 00:02:18,239
that's all I can really say outside of a full proper review of the card but one

34
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:22,879
more thing I want to point out is their Auto extreme technology this is an

35
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:26,120
industry first 100% automated production process and material design and they've

36
00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:31,760
got a cool little demo here where you can see the difference between what was probably soldered by a human and what

37
00:02:29,519 --> 00:02:35,879
was Ed by a machine pretty cool combination next up is the Claymore RGB

38
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:39,879
and I know I know I know another freaking keyboard video from Luke but it

39
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:44,959
it's fairly interesting trust me okay so it's an RGB keyboard but this is the

40
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:49,280
first as far as I know RGB keyboard that is using cherries RGB switches that

41
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:53,599
Corsair helped develop that isn't a Corsair keyboard fairly interesting I

42
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:58,400
think they have finally loosened their iron grip on those switches now also

43
00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:02,000
it's it has it looks like a 10 keyless here but there is another 10 key module

44
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,040
they just don't have it available that 10 key module will have a volume slider

45
00:03:03,959 --> 00:03:09,920
on it and will be able to be plugged in independently so it doesn't actually

46
00:03:07,959 --> 00:03:13,159
need to be plugged directly into the keyboard if you wanted to use it on a

47
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:17,239
laptop or whatever you could do that if you put that 10 key add-on on the right

48
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:21,280
side of the keyboard it's a normal num pad if you put that 10K out on on the

49
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:25,720
left side of the keyboard however it's a crazy macro pad for a huge amount of

50
00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:29,360
macros that you can use a really interesting way of having that 10ky

51
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:33,239
add-on set up not interesting enough for you but wait there's more if you have an

52
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:37,879
Rog motherboard you can sync your motherboard and keyboard together and

53
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:43,120
you can control your CPU fan speed based on a function key on the keyboard or you

54
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:44,920
can even have the RGB of your keyboard

55
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:48,920
uh reflecting the temperature of your CPU which is pretty freaking cool also

56
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:52,120
you can sync a whole bunch of things together so you can sync your keyboard

57
00:03:50,519 --> 00:03:56,120
and your mouse together to make all the breathing effects sync together which is

58
00:03:53,840 --> 00:04:00,200
cool I asked if this can also work with the breathing effect of the LED on your

59
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,879
motherboard considering you can control other stuff along with your motherboard

60
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:08,439
they weren't entirely sure so I'll have to stay tuned for that let me know what you guys think about the graphics card

61
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:13,079
or the keyboard in the description down below or on Twitter at lukor LFR also
