00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:05.640
thank you to Logitech and Discord for bringing us to paxi 2016 this year if

00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:08.880
you want to see all of their stuff click their Link in the video description down

00:00:06.919 --> 00:00:12.120
below so we are the Intel Booth checking out the skull Canyon the last time they

00:00:10.920 --> 00:00:17.720
released something with the name of skull in it it was the skull Trail and

00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:19.640
that was freaking badass and so is this

00:00:17.720 --> 00:00:23.439
we've talked about on the W show before but now I finally get to see it in real

00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:27.560
life let's check it out the main awesome thing about the skull Canyon is its size

00:00:25.400 --> 00:00:33.440
and what it's able to do within the restrictions of its size this thing is 0

00:00:30.080 --> 00:00:37.120
74 L of total volume Which is less than

00:00:33.440 --> 00:00:42.160
two popcs for more exact dimensions it's

00:00:37.120 --> 00:00:44.960
211 X 116 by 28 millime not inches or

00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:48.000
centimet millimeters this thing is Tiny in terms of an internal Hardware which

00:00:46.559 --> 00:00:54.640
is I know what you all want to hear about it has an i7 6770 HQ processor

00:00:51.559 --> 00:00:56.399
running at 2.6 GHz at the like TDP all

00:00:54.640 --> 00:01:01.920
day rating which is where it's able to comfortably sit all the time or when it

00:00:58.480 --> 00:01:04.400
boosts up it can go up to 3 3.4 GHz for

00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:10.119
expandability it has two so DM slots it can go up to 32 GB and currently

00:01:06.880 --> 00:01:12.159
supports 2133 MHz for total speed for

00:01:10.119 --> 00:01:16.960
drive expandability you have two m.2 slots which are able to fully support

00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:20.560
the full speed of a 950 Pro so you don't really have to worry about storage

00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:25.759
speeds either in terms of IO on the front you have an SD card slot a power

00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:30.200
button two USB 3.0 ports one of which is a charging port so while it's off it can

00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:35.000
still charge one of your devices a head Jack and an IR receiver on the back you

00:01:32.759 --> 00:01:41.720
have power in a headphone SL Optical microphone Jack an RJ45 Ethernet gigabit

00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:45.920
Port two USB 3.0 ports a DisplayPort a

00:01:41.720 --> 00:01:49.240
USB 3.1 type-c connector and HDMI 2.0

00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:51.439
for full 4K 60 HZ on the right hand side

00:01:49.240 --> 00:01:54.960
you have a metal reinforced Kensington lock which is awesome because if it was

00:01:53.240 --> 00:01:59.039
just plain plastic someone would just be able to rip it off the Kensington lock

00:01:56.600 --> 00:02:02.560
which kind of defeats the purpose on the bottom for when you're taking apart

00:02:00.360 --> 00:02:06.039
there's captive screws so you unscrew them and they actually stay connected to

00:02:03.880 --> 00:02:10.520
the plate which is great because losing little tiny screws is super frustrating

00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:14.640
and you have replaceable face plates on the top so you can have the awesome face

00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:18.400
plate with the skull on it which I highly recommend you use or if you

00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:21.800
needed more like a business application where you don't want to have skulls on

00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:26.000
things you do have the mat plate which does still feature the hexagon pattern

00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:30.360
on the left hand side which is super awesome and if you take that plate off

00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:33.800
of the top you have more expanded IO for if you want to put this thing in your

00:02:31.519 --> 00:02:38.680
own custom chassis or you just don't need the top cover for whatever reason

00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:42.680
that IO is a USB 3.0 header which is not the standard one you'd find in a desktop

00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:47.640
so you might have to go looking for a custom part for that a common IO header

00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:52.000
which supports USB 2.0 lights switches all that kind of stuff and possibly an

00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:56.080
NFC header but that's not necessarily finalized at this point for wireless you

00:02:53.920 --> 00:03:00.440
have Intel Wireless AC which is probably what you expected and for power you have

00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:05.239
120 W power from the wall wall which is running at 19 volts and 6.3 amps it

00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:09.959
actually usually only pulls like 60 to 65 Watts but that extra expanded wattage

00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:13.440
is there for things that might need to be powered over Thunderbolt speaking of

00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:17.200
Thunderbolt you can do some pretty awesome stuff so that's nice and small

00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:20.799
but if you want to expand it with a dedicated graphics card you can get

00:03:19.040 --> 00:03:23.959
something like the Razer core run that Thunderbolt connection to it and run

00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:28.239
what they're currently running which is an R9 Nano you can fit fullsize graphics

00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:31.519
cards in here but they're running a nano Nanos are great I love Nanos that's

00:03:29.920 --> 00:03:36.319
completely fine and you can do stuff like run Just Cause 3 completely fine

00:03:34.760 --> 00:03:40.239
it's not even that easy of a game to run and they're running it no problemo so

00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:43.599
that sounds pretty sick but when can you get your hands on one well they have

00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:48.200
pre-orders right now on new EG but they won't be shipping until sometime in May

00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:51.400
not entirely sure when during that month but it's May that's probably fine it's

00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:56.599
about $650 suggested retail price not entirely

00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:59.879
sure exactly how much it's going to cost and that is the barebone system so

00:03:58.200 --> 00:04:03.319
without any memory and without without any storage space so if you are

00:04:01.799 --> 00:04:08.560
interested check out newegg.com they have them for pre-order right now just search up skull Canyon like you to

00:04:06.640 --> 00:04:13.239
