thank you to Logitech and Discord for bringing us to paxi 2016 this year if
you want to see all of their stuff click their Link in the video description down
below so we are the Intel Booth checking out the skull Canyon the last time they
released something with the name of skull in it it was the skull Trail and
that was freaking badass and so is this
we've talked about on the W show before but now I finally get to see it in real
life let's check it out the main awesome thing about the skull Canyon is its size
and what it's able to do within the restrictions of its size this thing is 0
74 L of total volume Which is less than
two popcs for more exact dimensions it's
211 X 116 by 28 millime not inches or
centimet millimeters this thing is Tiny in terms of an internal Hardware which
is I know what you all want to hear about it has an i7 6770 HQ processor
running at 2.6 GHz at the like TDP all
day rating which is where it's able to comfortably sit all the time or when it
boosts up it can go up to 3 3.4 GHz for
expandability it has two so DM slots it can go up to 32 GB and currently
supports 2133 MHz for total speed for
drive expandability you have two m.2 slots which are able to fully support
the full speed of a 950 Pro so you don't really have to worry about storage
speeds either in terms of IO on the front you have an SD card slot a power
button two USB 3.0 ports one of which is a charging port so while it's off it can
still charge one of your devices a head Jack and an IR receiver on the back you
have power in a headphone SL Optical microphone Jack an RJ45 Ethernet gigabit
Port two USB 3.0 ports a DisplayPort a
USB 3.1 type-c connector and HDMI 2.0
for full 4K 60 HZ on the right hand side
you have a metal reinforced Kensington lock which is awesome because if it was
just plain plastic someone would just be able to rip it off the Kensington lock
which kind of defeats the purpose on the bottom for when you're taking apart
there's captive screws so you unscrew them and they actually stay connected to
the plate which is great because losing little tiny screws is super frustrating
and you have replaceable face plates on the top so you can have the awesome face
plate with the skull on it which I highly recommend you use or if you
needed more like a business application where you don't want to have skulls on
things you do have the mat plate which does still feature the hexagon pattern
on the left hand side which is super awesome and if you take that plate off
of the top you have more expanded IO for if you want to put this thing in your
own custom chassis or you just don't need the top cover for whatever reason
that IO is a USB 3.0 header which is not the standard one you'd find in a desktop
so you might have to go looking for a custom part for that a common IO header
which supports USB 2.0 lights switches all that kind of stuff and possibly an
NFC header but that's not necessarily finalized at this point for wireless you
have Intel Wireless AC which is probably what you expected and for power you have
120 W power from the wall wall which is running at 19 volts and 6.3 amps it
actually usually only pulls like 60 to 65 Watts but that extra expanded wattage
is there for things that might need to be powered over Thunderbolt speaking of
Thunderbolt you can do some pretty awesome stuff so that's nice and small
but if you want to expand it with a dedicated graphics card you can get
something like the Razer core run that Thunderbolt connection to it and run
what they're currently running which is an R9 Nano you can fit fullsize graphics
cards in here but they're running a nano Nanos are great I love Nanos that's
completely fine and you can do stuff like run Just Cause 3 completely fine
it's not even that easy of a game to run and they're running it no problemo so
that sounds pretty sick but when can you get your hands on one well they have
pre-orders right now on new EG but they won't be shipping until sometime in May
not entirely sure when during that month but it's May that's probably fine it's
about $650 suggested retail price not entirely
sure exactly how much it's going to cost and that is the barebone system so
without any memory and without without any storage space so if you are
interested check out newegg.com they have them for pre-order right now just search up skull Canyon like you to
