00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,319
thanks to ifixit for sponsoring this video check out their protech toolkit at

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:11,519
ifixit.com forward slash Linus for three solid generations digital

3
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:17,199
storm has been making their small form factor gaming computers bigger and

4
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:22,400
bigger for some inexplicable reason but that all changes today they're showing

5
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:25,199
off the medina the event x and the v

6
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:29,199
locks x and those ones are pretty cool but this

7
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:33,040
this is the star of the show this is the digital storm

8
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:37,440
spark the kind of small form factor gaming machine that i might have

9
00:00:34,399 --> 00:00:40,480
designed after i first laid eyes on mini

10
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:43,360
stx hardware back at computex last year

11
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:47,360
so inside this tiny box like look at this this isn't a ventum x for scale

12
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:53,280
like come on inside this tiny box you'll find tons of

13
00:00:50,079 --> 00:00:56,239
storage expansion that is three m.2

14
00:00:53,280 --> 00:01:04,799
slots and a two and a half inch drive bay you will find up to a core i7 8700k

15
00:01:01,359 --> 00:01:08,240
you will find up to a gtx 1080 graphics

16
00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:10,720
card up to 32 gigs of RAM and yes my

17
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:16,880
friends that is full custom hard-line water cooling with RGB

18
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:21,439
lighting so they've done a couple of cool things to get that kind of hardware

19
00:01:18,799 --> 00:01:26,720
into this form factor number one is they have actually worked with swift

20
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:30,159
tech to design a custom block for the

21
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:33,360
mxm graphics card that is used by this

22
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:36,720
mini stx form factor number two is

23
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:38,960
they're using a super compact 92

24
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:42,720
millimeter radiator up here in the top as well as a

25
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:47,920
one of the smallest pump reservoir combos that i have ever seen up there

26
00:01:46,079 --> 00:01:52,960
and number three is that they've designed their own custom chassis which

27
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:58,320
by the time this is released in uh knock on wood quarter two of 2018 will

28
00:01:55,759 --> 00:02:03,759
have tempered glass for the side panels on both sides it's digital storm so it's

29
00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:07,920
not going to be cheap once it's available you'll be able to customize

30
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:12,879
not just the color of your coolant but even the color of the chassis with any

31
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:15,280
one of their great paint jobs and while

32
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:20,160
it's digital storms so this thing is not going to be cheap if

33
00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:28,000
you're a gamer on the go and you don't like the laptop paradigm this looks like

34
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:30,000
a pretty compact option

35
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:35,360
this video from ces was brought to you guys by ifixit yes my friends it is

36
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:40,640
courtesy of ifixit and their pro pro-tec toolkit that i'm able to cause the usual

37
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:45,599
havoc that i do here at the show taking apart everyone's prototypes be they

38
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:48,800
desktops laptops hell why don't we take apart a monitor this year i mean the

39
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:54,640
sky's the limit because it's got everything from pry tools to spudgers to

40
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:59,599
suction cups to their 64-bit driver kit that means that you will never get

41
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:04,480
stumped by a random screw that you just don't have that bit on you right now

42
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:07,760
as long as you don't lose them so check them out at the link in the video

43
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:14,000
description and a huge thanks to ifixit for allowing us to be here at ces 2018.
