00:00:07.399 --> 00:00:14.799
welcome to my unboxing of gigabytes update to the G1 assassin which we

00:00:12.920 --> 00:00:21.320
actually oh yeah we have our G1 assassin system over here so we will be updating

00:00:17.439 --> 00:00:23.680
our G1 assassin LGA 1366 machine right

00:00:21.320 --> 00:00:28.880
there with the Dual 590s and the liquid cooling and the all the good stuff we

00:00:25.880 --> 00:00:30.519
will be updating that with this board

00:00:28.880 --> 00:00:35.200
once we are finished unbox ing it and once I have the LGA 2011 Mount that I

00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:40.160
need for swifttech water Block in order to rebuild our extreme buyers guide

00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:44.440
system so this guy's got a 5-year warranty as well as some other upgrades

00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:49.600
over the original G1 assassin one of them is a Bluetooth 4.0 and Wi-Fi card

00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:55.039
that is included another one is their patent pending 3D BIOS dual UEFI BIOS so

00:00:52.920 --> 00:01:00.199
I'll be doing a video on 3D BIOS in the near future here we also have 3D power

00:00:57.800 --> 00:01:04.320
which is basically uh gigabytes way of saying that they have three-way digital

00:01:02.440 --> 00:01:07.520
power delivery on this particular board it's not see 3D is more like three

00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:13.720
digital rather than threedimensional whereas this is more like three-dimensional so um yes so they mean

00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:20.240
a couple of different things what else we got back here okay so you know what let's get the board open let's open up

00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:27.119
the board let's cut to the chase skip to the good part take it out

00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:29.920
of and I know someone someone is going

00:01:27.119 --> 00:01:34.240
to make a comment on that on YouTube I no because they did it when I did my

00:01:31.880 --> 00:01:40.240
original G1 assassin unboxing for some reason yes both the G1 assassin 1 and

00:01:37.360 --> 00:01:43.640
the G1 assassin 2 leted out a huge fart when I open them up there's nothing I

00:01:42.399 --> 00:01:49.040
can do about it grow up no I'm just kidding you don't

00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:54.119
have to grow up farts are funny okay so here we go we have some bullets some

00:01:51.479 --> 00:01:58.159
bullet holes and a G1 killer dude we've also got some more bullets and bullet

00:01:55.280 --> 00:02:04.439
holes and more G1 killer logos we've got a poster which is different from the

00:02:01.320 --> 00:02:06.119
G1 original series posters which

00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:11.879
featured the gorilla the sniper and the Assassin this one is just the general G1

00:02:09.160 --> 00:02:14.920
logo so this has oh it has the original ones on it but not the new ones I guess

00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:19.840
they didn't update the poster fascinating okay we've got a Gigabyte

00:02:16.959 --> 00:02:24.040
sticker included and look at all these accessories that's some good accessory

00:02:21.959 --> 00:02:31.280
action going on here so we have our Bluetooth and Wi-Fi uh PCI Express 1X

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:35.599
adapter which in incidentally doesn't only work antennas on Gigabyte

00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:40.159
motherboards it also works on whatever motherboard you want so if you happen to buy one of these boards and you happen

00:02:38.200 --> 00:02:44.440
to need Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on some other machine then you just got yourself

00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:49.959
an extra value ad we have a crossfire Bridge a three-way SLI Bridge as well as

00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:54.159
an SLI Bridge these are all long Bridges which is

00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:57.519
nice let's use that long spacing this is

00:02:54.159 --> 00:03:00.280
a USB data cable for that uh Bluetooth

00:02:57.519 --> 00:03:05.720
card or Wi-Fi Bluetooth card it does both we've got one right angle or two

00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:12.480
right angle and two straight SATA cables all right we've got a front 3 and 1/2 in

00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:14.080
USB 3 doad that plugs into the header of

00:03:12.480 --> 00:03:18.760
your motherboard so if you don't have a case that has front USB 3 now you do

00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:22.640
next we've got an IO Shield uh some documentation including

00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:28.400
some discs that you're going to want to go ahead and download the latest from the Gigabyte website so one disc for the

00:03:25.959 --> 00:03:32.319
board one disc for your GC Wi-Fi that is that wireless Bluetooth guy

00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:37.840
you got your manual you got a manual for the G GC Wi-Fi and that pretty well does

00:03:35.959 --> 00:03:43.959
it looks like that probably went in there haha I figured out how this

00:03:41.720 --> 00:03:47.720
works like a wizard I'm sure Harry Potter could

00:03:45.959 --> 00:03:53.000
figure out how to unbox something it's too bad those movies are

00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:55.000
over I enjoy the Harry Potter movies now

00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:57.680
I'll never get to watch one ever again cuz they're not really like they're good

00:03:56.319 --> 00:04:03.560
they're you know they're kind of fun to watch but I don't think they really Merit like a rewatch so to

00:04:03.959 --> 00:04:10.120
speak uh you know what I'm going to put it over here so yeah here we go I'm

00:04:08.760 --> 00:04:17.560
going to put it on its digicam camouflage box and there's absolutely

00:04:14.920 --> 00:04:23.120
nothing camouflage about this board this board is about as like out there as it

00:04:19.799 --> 00:04:25.560
gets so here we go let's start with the

00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:30.680
overall package so the overall package is XL at is it XL ATX hold on just gosh

00:04:29.440 --> 00:04:36.919
don't minute here no it's

00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:39.000
not I'll be back in a moment so I

00:04:36.919 --> 00:04:45.280
thought this was the XL ATX board but it turns out I was wrong the ud7 is the XL

00:04:42.080 --> 00:04:48.120
ATX board so this is an ATX board with

00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:53.759
an LGA 2011 socket right smack in the not quite middle but a little bit off to

00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:56.320
the right side and it supports four dims

00:04:53.759 --> 00:05:01.199
in Quad channel so that means you have support for up to 32 gigs of memory if

00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:05.840
you're using 8 gig dims and potentially 64 gigs in the future when that sort of

00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:09.800
comes out if it ever does okay what else we got here we have our 8 pin connector

00:05:07.960 --> 00:05:13.199
and I would say it's not quite ideal location it is on the top edge of the

00:05:11.320 --> 00:05:16.520
board but it is not over here in this corner which is where most cases are

00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:21.440
usually putting a cutout so that you have easy access to it we've also got

00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:24.720
our 24 pin ATX connector in its ideal location along the right hand Edge we've

00:05:22.840 --> 00:05:29.600
got our usb3 connector in its ideal location along the right hand Edge we've

00:05:26.919 --> 00:05:34.400
also got our SATA 36 GB per second ports right about here R SATA 2 3 gbit per

00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:38.800
second ports right about here so that's two of those and four of those and

00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:43.440
finally on a third party chipset we have more SATA 3 6 gbit per second ports here

00:05:41.880 --> 00:05:47.919
now in terms of the cooling solution we're used to seeing pretty cool cooling

00:05:45.960 --> 00:05:52.560
solutions on the G1 board so we've got kind of a sort of silencer muzzle

00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:56.479
looking thing over here that looks like kind of like a barrel and that looks

00:05:54.039 --> 00:05:59.199
kind of like a you know stock or not a stock what's the thing you hold I don't

00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:03.120
know the grippy thing where you put your left hand if you're right-handed okay

00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:06.840
and then we have a heat pipe going down to a

00:06:04.440 --> 00:06:10.520
pistol which says Gigabyte gaming motherboard and this is hilarious you

00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:15.599
guys are going to love this okay here here here here here here here

00:06:12.520 --> 00:06:17.800
here heat sink not a weapon cannot be

00:06:15.599 --> 00:06:22.639
assembled as a firearm so just in case you were wondering no you cannot

00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:25.280
assemble it as a firearm and you're dumb

00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:30.319
for thinking that okay not that I ever try to insult my viewers but come on

00:06:27.080 --> 00:06:31.680
really like really okay so front panel

00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:36.039
connectors are right about here on the bottom there's your powered USB 2 so

00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:40.759
powered USB 2 is useful for charging things like iPads and other tablets and

00:06:38.599 --> 00:06:46.560
good stuff like that we've also got two additional usb2 front panel headers we

00:06:43.400 --> 00:06:48.599
have our front panel audio and we have

00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:53.080
full support for up to three-way Crossfire or SLI so you're going to be

00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:58.720
running 16x 16x for a dual card configuration which would leave you with

00:06:55.160 --> 00:07:02.360
a PCIe 8X and a PCIe 1x for further

00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:03.599
expansion or you can run 16x 8X 8X and

00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:10.319
that would leave you with nothing else for further expansion unless you're using water blocks which is possible

00:07:07.520 --> 00:07:17.039
what we also find down here is our Amplified onboard audio so headphone

00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:19.960
apps I'm a big sort of advocate of using

00:07:17.039 --> 00:07:23.400
a properly Amplified headphone output if you are using headphones especially ones

00:07:21.840 --> 00:07:27.879
with reasonably High impedance which is anything that's higher end than a fairly

00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:34.199
basic set of headphones so that is there we also have the onboard with dedicated

00:07:30.280 --> 00:07:36.280
RAM killer e2100 Nick card and up here

00:07:34.199 --> 00:07:40.400
we find all kinds of like fascinating little chips most of which I don't know

00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:46.080
what they do here's our Fresco logic there's our Marvel which I would say is

00:07:43.520 --> 00:07:50.000
probably powering raid but my guess would be that it's not and probably

00:07:47.840 --> 00:07:54.360
powering the EA we got another Marvel chip over here okay lots of good

00:07:52.599 --> 00:07:57.960
stuff hey let's look at where all the fan headers are okay so we have our CPU

00:07:56.520 --> 00:08:01.919
fan header here you want to sort of back up a little bit for this part so oh yeah

00:07:59.599 --> 00:08:05.759
you are good job okay CPU fan header here we've got another four pin fan

00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:11.199
header here another one here so that's three so far we've got another one here

00:08:09.039 --> 00:08:17.639
so that's four we've got another one here so that's five so we have five four

00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:18.919
pin pwm fan headers on the G1 assassin 2

00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:26.520
and let's have a look at what we've got in terms of rear IO so we have a PS2 PS2

00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:29.759
keyboard mouse combo Port 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

00:08:26.520 --> 00:08:32.680
eight USB 2.0 ports and OC button that

00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:37.440
is a OneTouch overclock a BIOS selector switch that is very very handy and very

00:08:34.800 --> 00:08:42.839
cool to see we've also got a SOS clear button two Es SATA ports so those are

00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:44.839
those eSATA USB combo ports two USB 3.0

00:08:42.839 --> 00:08:49.600
ports there's your killer e2100 networking and finally 7.1 audio out

00:08:47.640 --> 00:08:55.000
including optical audio out although the omission of a microphone in a dedicated

00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:59.560
microphone in import is a very strange one to me so what you guys can probably

00:08:57.480 --> 00:09:05.040
see here is that this is a little bit costed down compared to the original G1

00:09:02.160 --> 00:09:08.440
assassin but they still have left along most of the features that I would say

00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:13.600
Gamers would care about most gamers are not loading up their system with 128

00:09:11.560 --> 00:09:16.959
gigs or 64 gigs of memory so you've still got the four slots for Quad

00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:21.399
Channel operation you've still got your full support for three-way SLI or

00:09:18.920 --> 00:09:26.399
Crossfire X you got your killer Bigfoot networking you've got your headphone amp

00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:28.959
sound card that is built in okay you know what bearing in mind okay I'm

00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:32.680
criticizing them on the mic Port missing here but you can obviously use your

00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:38.320
front panel mic which is probably what they're expecting you to do now that I

00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:39.560
think about it a little bit more so yeah

00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:42.680
thank you for checking out my unboxing of the G1 assassin 2 don't forget to
