00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:07,680
Linus Tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by nc.com your source for

2
00:00:05,319 --> 00:00:12,759
great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:18,119
Digital we're here in the MSI Suite this is their systems and this is the system

4
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:22,080
this I mean they showed me a bunch of other stuff and I was like okay yeah I can make video about this this this and

5
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:27,640
they showed me this thing I'm like yeah yeah okay we're we're going to get started on that right away now I can't

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:32,320
tell you guys the model number I can't tell you guys what graphics cards in it

7
00:00:30,359 --> 00:00:37,640
I can tell you guys it has a core i7 quad core processor I can't even tell

8
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:43,480
you guys what this thing is made out of but what I can tell you is that it is

9
00:00:39,879 --> 00:00:47,039
incredibly slim just like the gx70 it

10
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:49,840
has a 15.6 in non-tn display that'll be

11
00:00:47,039 --> 00:00:54,920
available in up to a 3K resolution it has their Dine Audio better onboard

12
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:58,519
sound it has a steel series multicolor back lit keyboard with the steel series

13
00:00:56,879 --> 00:01:03,440
engine meaning you can reprogram the keys to whatever you want it supports

14
00:01:01,199 --> 00:01:09,720
two external displays at the same time over mini DP and HDMI and I fired up a

15
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:13,720
game on it and I can tell you guys that while I can't say anything about the

16
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:20,040
graphics because I can't say anything yet this one right here the gs70 it

17
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:23,280
feels a touch faster than that and that

18
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:25,880
has a 765 m in it so why don't you guys

19
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:30,920
take away from that whatever you will but this looks like I mean it is so

20
00:01:29,119 --> 00:01:35,119
light that's why I can't tell you guys what it's made of it is incredibly light

21
00:01:33,119 --> 00:01:39,280
and it actually doesn't even seem to run that loud now this is a pre-production

22
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:42,759
model this is not even finished yet but I am really excited and I am going to

23
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:46,719
basically tell these guys that if I don't get one of these for us to do a

24
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:51,079
full proper review of when the time comes I will be sorely disappointed now

25
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,320
just because that was the one that I got really amped up about doesn't mean that

26
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:59,000
there isn't other exciting stuff here guys this is their GT series which okay

27
00:01:57,479 --> 00:02:03,960
it kind of looks like MSI gaming notebooks have looked like for the last little while but what's the difference

28
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:07,880
ah yes this here on the screen so I talked about the steel series keyboard

29
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:11,840
on that last one full steel series engine support now that means that

30
00:02:09,679 --> 00:02:16,120
rather than oh you know we have five macro Keys here or you know two macro

31
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:21,400
keys there this one in addition to supporting um 16.8 million color RGB

32
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:26,239
backlighting on the keyboard with waves and breathing and all that stuff you can

33
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,959
now rebind any key on the entire

34
00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:32,160
keyboard to whatever you want whether it's a simple remap or whether it's

35
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:36,560
binding as a macro you can set up an unlimited number of profiles and you can

36
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:40,400
do it all within the steel series engine software that runs right on your

37
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:43,360
notebook it is a steel series keyboard in effect now that might not be that

38
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:49,480
exciting because that's a pretty high-end model but what about this right here this is the GE series which has now

39
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:53,879
also been updated with the fully backlit steel series keyboard so at this point

40
00:02:51,640 --> 00:02:57,959
with uh MSI's Next Generation gaming notebooks you are pretty much no matter

41
00:02:55,920 --> 00:03:02,360
how you slice it going to get an awesome keyboard to go along with the powerful

42
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:06,440
Graphics powerful CPU and all the other good stuff in here and we're going to

43
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:12,239
close things out here with the first that I've ever seen uh gaming aiio so

44
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:17,319
this one right here has an 8970m graphics card in it it's got a

45
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:20,640
core i7 quad core it's got all the stuff that you might expect an AIO to have

46
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:25,560
well okay except for that powerful graphics card so it's a 27in 1080p

47
00:03:23,640 --> 00:03:29,840
display and you can see they've actually got Battlefield running on here right

48
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:32,920
now although this particular game is not not very uh not very touchcreen

49
00:03:31,319 --> 00:03:36,200
optimized it does happen to have a 10-point multi- touchcreen but of course

50
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:40,360
it comes with a keyboard and mouse that you could use as well one unique thing

51
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:44,840
about this from an AO perspective is it has a matte display so MSI has stuck

52
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:49,920
with this with their gaming series products whether it's on the notebook side or now the AO side and they've

53
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:55,239
received positive feedback from their customers so there you go it's back now

54
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:58,640
this one over here this is the AG 240 is actually a little bit different does not

55
00:03:56,519 --> 00:04:04,519
have the matte display but what it does have is a small form factor so this is

56
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:07,400
only using a 24in display oh crap is it

57
00:04:04,519 --> 00:04:12,000
24 in bollocks see I doubted myself but I shouldn't have it is a 24-in display

58
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:17,040
this one right here also has a core i7 processor and what's interesting about

59
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:21,840
this one is it has a Next Generation NVIDIA GPU so presumably this will be a

60
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:26,560
mobile graphics card because this is actually pretty darn slim but uh I think

61
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:30,440
we can expect to see some interesting performance so again Guys these are

62
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:34,639
gaming aiio so they have things like the killer Network prioritization that you

63
00:04:32,479 --> 00:04:39,280
would find on MSI gaming motherboards as well as notebooks but just in an

64
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:44,039
all-in-one form factor guys don't miss any of our CES 2014 coverage our trip to
