WEBVTT

00:00:00.380 --> 00:00:07.020
wow look at the size of this computer

00:00:03.780 --> 00:00:09.420
okay the NDT from HD computers isn't

00:00:07.020 --> 00:00:14.040
quite that big but it's like nothing I've ever seen before it's tall

00:00:11.540 --> 00:00:17.480
statue-esque even and it is packed with top tier components to the point where

00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:22.080
you might kind of wonder if they're compensating for something regardless of

00:00:19.859 --> 00:00:25.260
that though it's a really cool concept for a case layout and they were kind

00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:30.960
enough to send it over so we can tell you guys is it a complete hunk of junk

00:00:27.660 --> 00:00:33.000
or is it the next big Paradigm in case

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:37.860
design maybe both um R showed up with kind of a unique

00:00:34.680 --> 00:00:40.020
feature that uh

00:00:37.860 --> 00:00:45.059
gives it some serious room to breathe here oh

00:00:43.260 --> 00:00:49.559
well there's your problem right there they glued on the side panel

00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:54.420
when we reached out to customer service they told us they're using a high grade

00:00:51.680 --> 00:00:58.440
specialized structural epoxy from the Aerospace industry and let me just put

00:00:56.820 --> 00:01:01.079
it this way I'm sure that that was the right call so

00:01:00.239 --> 00:01:06.299
uh Dr Linus is here

00:01:03.239 --> 00:01:07.500
to fix it up glue gun

00:01:06.299 --> 00:01:13.280
how do you know I was going to ask for a glue gun I need 20 cc's of hot glue stat

00:01:12.060 --> 00:01:17.760
foreign oh boy this is not Aerospace adhesive

00:01:16.979 --> 00:01:23.299
um at all but then again the Aerospace

00:01:20.100 --> 00:01:27.080
adhesive didn't work very well either so

00:01:23.299 --> 00:01:27.080
best of luck everybody

00:01:29.460 --> 00:01:36.860
oh crap okay oh boy jump extra on don't peel it

00:01:34.740 --> 00:01:41.579
off another patient saved all in the day's

00:01:39.659 --> 00:01:45.360
work now all we need to do is fire this puppy up and see if all of these vents

00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:48.840
can give us enough airflow for our high-end Hardware

00:01:47.100 --> 00:01:53.399
that is this not the power button oh wait

00:01:51.360 --> 00:01:58.079
there's the power button and there's this message from our

00:01:55.500 --> 00:02:02.579
sponsor zoho1 Zoho one brings together sales marketing Finance analytics and

00:02:00.720 --> 00:02:07.020
support in a single unified platform like some kind of business Voltron it's

00:02:04.619 --> 00:02:11.160
amazing try Zoho won today for 30 days using the link below wait the script

00:02:09.420 --> 00:02:14.640
calls for me to show them the internals why did I close up the computer if we're

00:02:13.260 --> 00:02:18.620
going to show them the internals right away

00:02:16.500 --> 00:02:24.720
now I just want to make something clear this is actually how it showed up with

00:02:22.200 --> 00:02:27.959
the side panel no longer adhered to the side of the tower we reached out for

00:02:26.580 --> 00:02:32.780
comment and they mentioned how disappointed they were with the adhesive

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:38.099
failure but bass but they reassured us that the computer

00:02:35.300 --> 00:02:44.879
should still run fine more on that later I'm not sure that I

00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:46.920
entirely agree with them the RTX 49d now

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:54.599
that the adhesive has come off the side panel seems to be just hanging here

00:02:50.760 --> 00:02:56.400
anyway there is this bracket that's

00:02:54.599 --> 00:03:01.080
no way how do I even unpack all the levels of

00:02:58.140 --> 00:03:04.860
fail here the bracket is screwed on to the graphics card even if it's only

00:03:02.519 --> 00:03:09.300
adhered to the side panel but instead of being made of something with structural

00:03:06.540 --> 00:03:16.040
rigidity like steel or even aluminum actually made of acrylic acrylic guys at

00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:16.040
least use two acrylics

00:03:16.140 --> 00:03:22.680
also these screws either weren't screwed in all the way or they are not Loctite

00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:27.180
and they've come loose is this as shipped this is as shipped we have done

00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:31.200
nothing else after the fact other than to test it with Labs I think the power

00:03:29.340 --> 00:03:34.980
button was in place but they moved it because the panel kept falling off so

00:03:33.540 --> 00:03:38.760
that's why the power button is you know just off to the side there to their

00:03:36.540 --> 00:03:42.840
credit and their Aerospace adhesive does seem to be better than our hot glue

00:03:40.340 --> 00:03:47.099
Aerospace these are terms that get thrown around a lot but don't be fooled

00:03:45.480 --> 00:03:50.879
they're not particularly meaningful velcro is a Fastener developed for use

00:03:49.620 --> 00:03:55.680
in space but it's just velcro I don't want a

00:03:53.159 --> 00:04:01.580
velcro side panel now you want a velcro side panel the all velcro PC you do it

00:03:59.099 --> 00:04:09.420
up like this and it has a pump all right here we go this one kind of

00:04:05.459 --> 00:04:11.159
just slots in on the one side with fuzzy

00:04:09.420 --> 00:04:15.000
tape I guess that'll keep it from rattling at least and then screws in on

00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:19.940
the other side this appears to be the side panel that's actually intended to

00:04:17.280 --> 00:04:19.940
be removed

00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:28.620
why is that middle section damaged Ah that's not damaged that appears to be

00:04:25.979 --> 00:04:33.960
welding marks so rather than having these run the entire span they're welded

00:04:31.860 --> 00:04:39.000
here so that they don't rattle all over the place

00:04:35.940 --> 00:04:41.280
very hand crafted

00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:45.419
um feel to it what are we looking at here basically

00:04:43.500 --> 00:04:51.180
top of the line in terms of spec it's a 13 900 non-k probably just so that they

00:04:49.259 --> 00:04:57.360
can actually cool the bloody thing it's on an ITX motherboard the RG strix z790i

00:04:54.240 --> 00:05:00.960
gaming Wi-Fi it's got 32 gigs of

00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:03.960
Kingston ddr5 5600 apparently that's

00:05:00.960 --> 00:05:06.259
been updated to 6000 and they're running

00:05:03.960 --> 00:05:10.800
a thermal right axp 120-x67 I guess we'll find out if this

00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:18.180
is enough for core I9 and then this power supply almost certainly is that is

00:05:12.960 --> 00:05:20.580
an 1100 watt sfx power supply

00:05:18.180 --> 00:05:24.600
here's some more handcraftedness it looks like the housings on these USB

00:05:22.620 --> 00:05:28.380
connectors had to be shaved down in order to get them to fit under the front

00:05:26.280 --> 00:05:32.699
panel that's not in anything

00:05:29.400 --> 00:05:35.280
but what is is the fact that this PCIe

00:05:32.699 --> 00:05:38.240
bracket on this GPU seems to be

00:05:38.580 --> 00:05:45.180
oh no the bracket seems stronger than the case the bracket seems fine it's

00:05:43.620 --> 00:05:50.580
actually the case that's moving around here I'd be lying if I said I didn't love the

00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:56.460
concept overall though I mean look at it it's not much thicker than the GPU

00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:58.620
itself the footprint is Tiny if you're

00:05:56.460 --> 00:06:03.840
the kind of person who's got a monitor ARM for example and wants to save space

00:06:00.539 --> 00:06:06.780
on your desk can you 4090 in much less

00:06:03.840 --> 00:06:12.780
space than that and it's imposing it's really cool I actually have a lot of

00:06:09.780 --> 00:06:15.660
Hope for cooling too all of our fans are

00:06:12.780 --> 00:06:20.820
aligned so our intake side is all down this side and then they've got these

00:06:17.820 --> 00:06:23.520
nice wide open vents both at the front

00:06:20.820 --> 00:06:26.699
here and then all along the back here that are going to allow all that hot air

00:06:25.259 --> 00:06:30.620
to come out in theory

00:06:28.380 --> 00:06:35.699
only my GPU was attached to the computer oh and if only my power button was

00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:40.139
attached now Labs took the power button off for some reason

00:06:37.380 --> 00:06:46.620
I can't fathom the Y oh what no hey ploof this power button

00:06:44.039 --> 00:06:49.380
is still in here did it just break oh yeah it kind of looks like they added a

00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:53.220
new one yeah this is a completely different power button this seems to

00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:57.840
just not work anymore well that's probably why well there's your problem

00:06:54.660 --> 00:07:00.060
thank you for that probably broke off uh

00:06:57.840 --> 00:07:04.199
from here although this is cracked too well that might have been frustropping

00:07:01.620 --> 00:07:07.860
it I'm not sure from uh no no it dropped itself

00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:13.139
that's not on us yeah this is a broken power switch it's hot glued in which

00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:18.479
means I can remove it it just takes a little bit more time and it does seem to

00:07:15.539 --> 00:07:23.780
be the exact same style of switch that we have so

00:07:21.319 --> 00:07:29.699
YOLO oh man this is one of those products

00:07:26.280 --> 00:07:31.680
that really has a very DIY Vibe lots of

00:07:29.699 --> 00:07:37.020
good ideas here though check this out for example

00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:38.340
you can get at the screws for the GPU by

00:07:37.020 --> 00:07:42.180
just sticking your screwdriver through one of these vents lttstore.com

00:07:42.660 --> 00:07:47.180
did I mention the low back force on the ratchet

00:07:48.840 --> 00:07:57.900
one two screws holding in this graphics card that's what I said yeah okay

00:07:55.440 --> 00:08:00.960
there's a lot of glue coming this up the LTT screwdriver is neither a chisel nor

00:07:59.520 --> 00:08:06.180
pry bar minus Media Group and it's Associated companies take no responsibility for any accidental damage

00:08:03.599 --> 00:08:14.460
to your screwdriver or personal injury got it no no no no no no no

00:08:09.979 --> 00:08:16.520
it's bent how did the case get bent

00:08:14.460 --> 00:08:23.160
ah hey this is probably good enough where's

00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:25.979
my glue gun at yeah that's an aerospace

00:08:23.160 --> 00:08:29.220
quantity of regular glue while we're in here there's a couple more things for us

00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:36.779
to appreciate though they're using a PCIe Gen 4 Riser clearly labeled as such

00:08:32.899 --> 00:08:39.659
and these look like pretty cool low

00:08:36.779 --> 00:08:43.680
profile DisplayPort pass-through cables these may be custom made as well looking

00:08:42.060 --> 00:08:46.980
at how they're both slightly different lengths to account for the different

00:08:45.300 --> 00:08:51.779
DisplayPort ports that they're plugged into on the card these are there so you

00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:54.420
can have the gpuio facing down but still

00:08:51.779 --> 00:08:57.899
access it at the back one curious choice though is that they only run two even

00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:03.779
though there are three DisplayPort connections on this GPU and they totally

00:09:00.959 --> 00:09:10.440
had room to put an HDMI cut out here and instead I get no HDMI at all DisplayPort

00:09:06.899 --> 00:09:12.660
can be adapted to HDMI 2.1

00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:17.940
but that's like 20 bucks for an adapter 25 bucks it's not cheap and I already

00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:22.260
spent this computer we'll talk about that in a bit you guys want to know

00:09:19.800 --> 00:09:27.720
something what this isn't at an angle you see that yeah okay

00:09:25.560 --> 00:09:32.399
I think that might be why the screws aren't done up all the way in this so

00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:36.899
that this can be at an angle to sit flat on the side panel as for why that's at

00:09:34.680 --> 00:09:41.100
an angle I can't tell if it's intentional or if this was bent in

00:09:38.940 --> 00:09:45.480
shipping but it does seem to be intentional based on how this screw goes

00:09:44.040 --> 00:09:51.420
in here like it seems like it's supposed to kind of sit at an angle yes it's

00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:57.080
definitely intentional because they got to make room for the Riser here yep

00:09:53.640 --> 00:09:57.080
that's why it sits at an angle

00:09:57.540 --> 00:10:03.720
so cool though but it is really cool

00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:06.839
maybe we'll talk about performance in a bit here I don't know how to get this

00:10:05.100 --> 00:10:11.100
power button working I can't find exactly the the spot where it's supposed

00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:16.080
to sit I think we're just gonna have to kind of hope for the best here

00:10:13.380 --> 00:10:19.920
all right so imagine if you took like four of these and then you put them in a

00:10:17.880 --> 00:10:25.080
server rack imagine if you took an Xbox and you put it in a server okay yeah

00:10:23.100 --> 00:10:29.880
I've imagined it now what but it's small and then you can just like pull them out

00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:33.839
like imagine if you took a PS2 slim and put it in as much as we've dunked on

00:10:32.160 --> 00:10:38.720
these guys for their hot glue we've given them this feedback and they have

00:10:35.760 --> 00:10:42.420
expressed an interest in improving this through the use of screws I'm out of

00:10:41.220 --> 00:10:46.380
glue we have lots we have lots of people so

00:10:44.640 --> 00:10:50.459
if they can't find a better adhesive which they won't please don't try

00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:55.040
they're just going to put screws in this panel please do that yes thank you

00:10:57.380 --> 00:11:04.680
okay go for it oh no that's so crooked

00:11:01.260 --> 00:11:05.700
so crooked dude dude oh it's not that

00:11:04.680 --> 00:11:10.380
bad what are you talking about

00:11:08.060 --> 00:11:13.860
it's so far off okay good enough look you can't even

00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:18.380
tell from here turn it around look at this it's great

00:11:21.500 --> 00:11:29.760
just leave the side panel off well no we

00:11:24.899 --> 00:11:31.980
gotta test it thermal test David no I am

00:11:29.760 --> 00:11:35.360
putting this side panel on are you gonna put it on straight this time I'm gonna

00:11:33.060 --> 00:11:37.920
try okay

00:11:36.839 --> 00:11:42.420
okay please stay on all this can be yours for

00:11:41.459 --> 00:11:45.660
just was it six thousand dollars fifty seven

00:11:44.459 --> 00:11:50.880
hundred we did some price comparisons and if you

00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:55.440
were to pick up a similar machine from the likes of a main gear you're looking

00:11:52.680 --> 00:11:59.100
at about eight hundred dollars less and if you were to head over to PC part

00:11:56.820 --> 00:12:04.019
picker you're looking at about say eighteen hundred dollars less don't

00:12:02.459 --> 00:12:07.680
judge them too harshly though they're very small company and like I said

00:12:06.180 --> 00:12:12.180
before they're you know looking to improve I would say we've given them a

00:12:09.959 --> 00:12:16.740
few things that they could work on it's also very unique all those other

00:12:13.980 --> 00:12:20.700
Boutique sis are using like height y60s and stuff like standard cases I'm not

00:12:19.019 --> 00:12:25.440
saying that costs a thousand dollars to make the case well I don't know with how

00:12:22.800 --> 00:12:32.360
handmade this is it just might yeah and you look at how many people don't

00:12:28.140 --> 00:12:32.360
I think we gave and use the cable times

00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:38.820
or we could add duct tape around last

00:12:35.940 --> 00:12:43.800
attempt I mean I have another novelty sized glue stick please oh my God we've

00:12:40.680 --> 00:12:46.860
used that much glue yes with more glue I

00:12:43.800 --> 00:12:48.360
am quite sure that we will win the day

00:12:46.860 --> 00:12:54.500
okay all right we ready oh yeah that's the right amount of glue

00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:54.500
okay oh too far too far

00:12:56.000 --> 00:13:02.100
yeah oh my God it up we're good

00:13:02.100 --> 00:13:09.480
put around the base too yeah really really you know let's not let this fall

00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:12.060
off again if your case isn't smoking you

00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:17.720
must be joking I just gotta hope the 40 90 doesn't get

00:13:13.680 --> 00:13:17.720
hot enough to get the glue

00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:25.079
okay I think we've succeeded test success

00:13:23.700 --> 00:13:28.260
does the power button work oh you pressed it no I didn't you did

00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:35.940
what it's one of those things where when you plug it in just turns on oh yeah look at that wow if that doesn't

00:13:33.660 --> 00:13:39.899
intimidate your enemies your Porsche will

00:13:37.740 --> 00:13:44.700
it's a penis extension car I know I own it midlife crisis mobile Halo infinite

00:13:42.839 --> 00:13:48.120
not that my results really matter we had the lab test this thing ahead of time

00:13:46.139 --> 00:13:52.620
and the CPU maxed out at around 80 degrees which

00:13:49.560 --> 00:13:54.740
even though it's a non-k actually pretty

00:13:52.620 --> 00:13:58.920
impressive I guess that's what a completely fresh supply of air that's

00:13:57.300 --> 00:14:04.440
basically unrestricted is going to do for you and our GPU managed to hit

00:14:00.899 --> 00:14:08.459
absolute max turbo topping out at 68 69

00:14:04.440 --> 00:14:09.899
degrees nice as for loudness

00:14:08.459 --> 00:14:13.860
I'm going to give it a little bit more time but

00:14:11.579 --> 00:14:18.120
man especially with the fans facing the other side with this solid chunk of

00:14:16.139 --> 00:14:21.480
aluminum and all that glue caulking that we've got on it

00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:26.100
acoustic glue actually does a lot to deaden the sound how am I only getting

00:14:23.459 --> 00:14:32.760
70 FPS did this game absolutely crank Itself by

00:14:30.240 --> 00:14:37.380
default is that a 4K screen yeah it's a 4K display not only is it quiet but the

00:14:35.339 --> 00:14:41.699
airflow scheme really does seem to work getting lots of hot air out the front

00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:46.620
kind of coming out this way pulling cool air in the side and blowing a ton more

00:14:44.160 --> 00:14:50.220
hot air out the back and actually we're getting rid of a fair bit out the top as

00:14:48.300 --> 00:14:57.380
well just coming off the cooler for this GPU and it even looks like a radiator

00:14:52.860 --> 00:14:57.380
can you even hear this computer nope

00:14:57.660 --> 00:15:02.839
it's freaking quiet you know what else is quiet

00:15:03.420 --> 00:15:08.339
