1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:08,920 so we're here at the MSI booth at PA Prime 2015 and they are throwing one 2 00:00:05,839 --> 00:00:11,679 heck of a party it all centers around 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:16,920 the Grand Final of their Master's Gaming Arena 2015 this is a Heroes of the Storm 4 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:20,840 and Starcraft 2 competition that has actually been going on since May of this 5 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:24,760 year and we are finding out actually right behind us right now who will be 6 00:00:23,199 --> 00:00:28,800 taking home the title for Heroes of the Storm and Starcraft 2 is going to be 7 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:33,200 tomorrow but the subject of this video is the technology running the show 8 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:36,760 behind me so let's have a closer look at the laptops that the gamers up on the 9 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:41,520 stage there are using okay so I promised we'd check out 10 00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:46,160 the GE 62s that the competitors are using up there but we got a little 11 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:51,199 distracted on the way because this is the next Generation 12 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:54,800 gt72s okay it's kind of similar it's a little bit bigger but it has some pretty 13 00:00:53,239 --> 00:01:01,039 amazing upgrades over the last generation product so first of all this 14 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:04,879 is running the allnew core i7 6820 HK 15 00:01:01,039 --> 00:01:07,080 yes K overclocking on a notebook we've 16 00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:11,880 talked about this on W show now it's real MSI figures you can Peak at around 17 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:15,680 4.2 GHz if you overclock on a quadcore on a 18 00:01:13,159 --> 00:01:21,200 laptop and you can run sustain probably in the neighborhood of about 4 GHz and 19 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:27,240 the rest of the specs are no slouch as well you've got a GTX 980m 8 gig in 20 00:01:23,960 --> 00:01:31,320 there it's got a 17.3 in full HD g-sync 21 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:35,040 display it's got up to 64 GB by of ddr4 22 00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:37,439 memory but the storage oh the storage is 23 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:41,600 where things get really off the hook as I believe the kids say check out this 24 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:48,439 Crystal disc Mark that is a read speed of 3.2 gigabytes per second and a right 25 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:53,079 speed of 1.25 GB per second they are 26 00:01:48,439 --> 00:01:57,000 achieving this with two PCIe Forex gen 3 27 00:01:53,079 --> 00:01:57,000 ssds those are NVMe 28 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:04,280 ssds that is something that I personally 29 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:06,079 um have not seen before oh yeah there 30 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:10,479 are some other upgrades right physically so it's got a new keyboard design and 31 00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:16,920 they've replaced one of the DisplayPort ports in the back with USB type c with 32 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:20,840 Thunderbolt 3 capability coming in the future the certification is not quite 33 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:26,959 done yet but the logo's on there the Hardware's in there and it is going to 34 00:02:22,879 --> 00:02:28,800 be ready to go very very soon okay I had 35 00:02:26,959 --> 00:02:34,560 to stop and see this this is the Nightblade m now this isn't the first 36 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:37,920 time that we've seen MSI do a super 37 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:39,640 compact gaming machine but this is a 38 00:02:37,920 --> 00:02:44,640 whole other level because you guys will be much more impressed by it when I tip 39 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:49,040 it over onto its side and show you just how slim this puppy is so it features 40 00:02:47,319 --> 00:02:54,840 support for the latest sixth generation core i7 processors yes you can stuff a 41 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:56,720 6700k in here it's got a custom mini ITX 42 00:02:54,840 --> 00:03:00,760 motherboard inside that takes so damn memory so they are like really going for 43 00:02:58,959 --> 00:03:05,640 all the space saving they can get on this bad boy it can hold a fullsize 44 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:11,519 graphics card so this particular one is kitted out with a GTX 970 with their 45 00:03:08,799 --> 00:03:15,879 allnew Silent Storm cooling on it but yeah it's really fast it's got lots of 46 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:19,879 cooling and all that stuff but that is not even what's most impressive about 47 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:23,239 this bad boy to me so let's go ahead and open her up oh wow that came off pretty 48 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:30,040 smoothly normally it doesn't go that well for me we've got a single 2 and 1/2 49 00:03:25,959 --> 00:03:32,040 in SSD up here we've got two 3 and half 50 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,799 inch hard drives on these handy dandy little sleds you just take out two 51 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:40,680 screws and you're ready to replace a hard drive and we've got an optical 52 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:44,680 drive they fit four drives into this 53 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:47,400 tiny like shoe box siiz chassis I mean 54 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:50,599 that's freaking unbelievable so if you do want to pick one up it'll be 55 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:55,200 available as a barebones in North America so basically you throw in your 56 00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:57,319 own CPU and drives and like all that 57 00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:00,879 kind of stuff or in other regions worldwide you'll be able to buy it as a 58 00:03:58,879 --> 00:04:05,120 complete system very nice and wrapping things up we've 59 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:11,680 got the all-in-one that's being used by the commentators here this is the 24g E2 60 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:13,760 QE and we've seen gaming grade Allin 61 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:17,680 ones okay so yeah it's got a core i7 processor either fourth or fifth gen 62 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:22,720 depending on which skew you're shopping for this particular one is fourth gen 63 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:29,080 it's got a GTX 960m so you can watch videos at the 4K resolution of the 64 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:31,039 built-in 23.6 in screen and play like 65 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:35,600 mainstream games like League of Legends it's got enough horsepower for that it's 66 00:04:33,039 --> 00:04:40,759 got 16 gigs of RAM it's got a 128 gig MSA SSD with two slots for 2 and 1 12 in 67 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:44,000 drives in this case it's got a couple of hard drives for mass storage but the 68 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:49,199 thing that we haven't really seen much of in the past is super slim gaming 69 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:52,680 Allin ones it's one of those things I've always wondered why we don't do we've 70 00:04:50,919 --> 00:04:56,039 got all these slim gaming laptops well Ms side goes well hold on a second 71 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:59,919 that's the same bloody technology why don't we go ahead and put that into an 72 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:05,600 allinone and they're doing a few other things right with this one as well that 73 00:05:01,759 --> 00:05:08,600 4K display is now IPS and 10-point 74 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:11,280 multitouch so it's got all all the 75 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:16,039 fixings as far as all of that is concerned so thanks for checking out our 76 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:21,880 coverage of the MSI I don't even want to call it a a a
