00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:06.040
this is a pretty interesting looking product this is an AMD Fusion product

00:00:03.800 --> 00:00:11.960
and it is powered by Gigabyte so this is the E350 n USB 3 it features 333 onboard

00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:15.559
acceleration which we'll talk about a little bit more on the back a three-year

00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:19.680
warranty in the US and Canada as well as Windows 7 support which it darn well

00:00:17.680 --> 00:00:24.680
better support Windows 7 in this day and age it has Ultra durable 3 which

00:00:21.720 --> 00:00:27.439
features a double thickness copper PCB and let's move along to the back where

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:33.760
we're going to discover some more stuff so USB 3 yeah that's fast okay s 3 6

00:00:30.519 --> 00:00:35.640
gbit pers second also fast USB 3x power

00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:39.920
this is a neat feature in addition to their onoff charge feature so you can

00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:45.039
charge your devices up to 40% faster while the computer is on or off and the

00:00:42.360 --> 00:00:49.280
3x USB power boost also allows you to run triple the number of USB devices per

00:00:47.480 --> 00:00:56.640
Port that you would be able to off a regular USB port aha Ultra performance

00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:59.920
so we have an APU an AMD dual core E350

00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:01.519
processor with discrete graphics from

00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:06.240
from the HD 6310 chipset I could call it a chipset

00:01:04.119 --> 00:01:11.479
but it's not cuz it's all one unit so this is direct X11 graphics and a dual

00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:16.759
core processor all in one we've got dual bio support with uh up to 3 tbte plus

00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:20.040
hard drive support which is a good feature to have on a modern motherboard

00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:25.520
let's see what we got inside so we got a users manual okay inside the users manual

00:01:24.119 --> 00:01:30.119
probably find the usual stuff ooh including a block diagram here we've got

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:36.240
the Apu at the center of things power anything memory or PCI Express bus or

00:01:34.399 --> 00:01:42.479
well okay PCI Express bus is powered off that as well as our outputs in terms of

00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:46.680
video so there you go and then we've got the AMD Hudson M1 fch powering

00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:52.240
everything else so that's your SATA your Lan your USB PS2 even all that good

00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:55.640
stuff next we have the board itself we're not going to look at that just yet

00:01:54.600 --> 00:02:02.479
let's have a look at what other accessories we have in the cleverly

00:01:58.320 --> 00:02:05.600
packaged Gigabyte box here so we have an

00:02:02.479 --> 00:02:06.840
IO Shield handily color coded for your

00:02:05.600 --> 00:02:11.599
convenience and sure wish my camera would focus come

00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:16.760
on focus focus there you go now you can even read all that stuff look at that

00:02:13.959 --> 00:02:23.840
okay next we have two SATA cables one right angle not one not right angle we

00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:25.920
have a Dolby Home Theater

00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:31.440
sticker and then a multilingual installation guide book with a AMD

00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:35.920
Fusion utility DVD so download the latest there's your chipset Serial ATA

00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:38.840
network audio drivers Adobe Acrobat Reader just in case you don't have an

00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:44.280
internet connection or you don't know how to download a goby reader okay let's

00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:47.879
go ahead and put that stuff back in there and put that back in there and

00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:52.519
let's get to the board cuz that's the part I think we're all interested in so

00:02:49.519 --> 00:02:56.920
this is a fusion board which is very new

00:02:52.519 --> 00:03:01.000
and very exciting it has an APU which is

00:02:56.920 --> 00:03:05.319
both a CPU and a GPU roll gold into

00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:07.040
one and the tape is incredibly stu oh

00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:11.599
the tape is a lot longer than I had originally thought so it goes all the

00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:17.599
way up here why we

00:03:13.760 --> 00:03:19.159
just wow that's some stubborn tape so

00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:24.360
we'll just take that off there you go all right comes in an

00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:28.120
anti-static bag that looks like the right size for a graphics card certainly

00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:32.959
not the right size for uh this motherboard a little on the big side

00:03:30.200 --> 00:03:40.799
that's okay we'll let it slide this time so let's Orient this right side up here

00:03:35.480 --> 00:03:42.640
we go so we have our CPU Apu GPU thing

00:03:40.799 --> 00:03:48.560
here in the middle under this we've also got our IO control center okay so that's

00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:56.280
the Hudson M1 that is also under this heat sink which is cooled by a single 40

00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:58.239
mm fan 40 m yeah 40 mm okay we've got in

00:03:56.280 --> 00:04:02.840
terms of layout we've got our four pin connector and it's I suppose ideal

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:10.040
location at the top left we've got dual Channel DDR3 so this supports DDR3 up to

00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:12.959
1066 if I recall correctly but I didn't see any mention of that on the outside

00:04:11.959 --> 00:04:16.600
of the box I mean this is not meant to be a

00:04:15.200 --> 00:04:21.280
performance platform so you're not going to be running like DDR3 2000 RAM in it

00:04:18.880 --> 00:04:25.479
it would be kind of pointless so here we have our front panel connectors right

00:04:23.080 --> 00:04:31.479
here we've got our 24 pin power connector here and at the bottom we will

00:04:27.960 --> 00:04:33.400
find a PCI Express 6 16x physical

00:04:31.479 --> 00:04:39.600
connector but actually this is only wired for 4X electrical you can see the

00:04:36.280 --> 00:04:41.479
pins if I can get it to focus adequately

00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:45.320
yeah you can see the pins in the in the socket so it doesn't go all the way up

00:04:42.840 --> 00:04:50.160
to 8X or 16x it only goes to 4X we've got our front audio header

00:04:48.479 --> 00:04:55.639
right there and then we've also got front USB 1 front USB 2 both of those

00:04:53.160 --> 00:05:00.720
are USB 2.0 I'm just numbering them here's our SATA 3 6 gbit per second

00:04:57.880 --> 00:05:05.120
connectors so those are full speed say to 6 GB per second so you got full

00:05:02.479 --> 00:05:11.000
support for the latest ssds and all that kind of good technology hard drives up

00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:14.560
to three terabytes okay on the back we

00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:17.960
find four USB 2.0 ports two USB 3.0

00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:20.639
ports a PS2 keyboard mouse combo Port

00:05:17.960 --> 00:05:26.600
whichever you prefer to plug in VGA DVI and HDMI outputs optical audio out glad

00:05:24.039 --> 00:05:31.520
to see this even though we do have HDMI gigabit Ethernet and 7.1 audio hey look

00:05:29.880 --> 00:05:35.560
at that Gigabyte's using screws on the back of the board it's a nice touch I

00:05:32.960 --> 00:05:39.440
appreciate that it's uh more secure than push pins especially when it's kind of a

00:05:37.280 --> 00:05:42.680
full coverage sort of solution where you're actually cooling two separate

00:05:41.479 --> 00:05:46.800
chips under there you want to make sure it's making good contact then use screws

00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:52.960
good strategy all right thanks for checking out my unboxing of the GAE 350n

00:05:50.440 --> 00:05:58.319
