00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:07.080
welcome to Linus Tech tips at CES 2013 our trip to the show this year is

00:00:04.680 --> 00:00:11.400
powered by Corsair maker of quality PC components and peripherals our trusted

00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:15.120
storage partner is Seagate technology and our trusted networking partner is

00:00:16.400 --> 00:00:22.880
linkis here we are in the Silverstone Suite where they have a wide variety of

00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:26.279
new stuff on display some of this is super new some of this is super not

00:00:24.680 --> 00:00:28.880
quite as new but we're just going to kind of go from left to right here and

00:00:27.720 --> 00:00:34.320
I'm going to pick some of the highlights that I think are really cool so this is a case Mod's Dream It's a dual 140

00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:37.000
millimeter fan filter with magnets so all you do is you cut a hole in your

00:00:35.760 --> 00:00:40.960
case it doesn't have to be super beautiful or anything like that you take

00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:45.520
this guy stick it on there and it's going to look super clean no matter what

00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:49.680
you did any mistakes you made or whatever else these are an updated

00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:54.320
version of their magnetic fan filters that use mesh that is so fine that you

00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:58.160
actually can't really even see it so this is going to pick up any of the

00:00:55.800 --> 00:01:02.120
smallest dust particles and filter those out before they start clogging up your

00:00:59.960 --> 00:01:06.400
your system or potentially risk you know getting build up on something and having

00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:11.479
a short or anything like that moving right along we've got this which is

00:01:08.759 --> 00:01:15.560
extremely cool so these ones right here the black ones are only for Silverstone

00:01:13.320 --> 00:01:21.079
power supplies and unlike other individually sleeved cables these ones

00:01:17.960 --> 00:01:22.880
are using a braided nylon so we're not I

00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:29.680
mean okay so yeah you can talk about mdpc uh sleeving all you want this is a

00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:31.720
significant step above that in terms of

00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:37.000
the quality these will be completely resistant to any kind of cutting or

00:01:33.960 --> 00:01:39.040
damage and they will just sort of just

00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:42.119
feel nicer look nicer just better in every possible way they not only have

00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:46.200
the black ones for their own power supplies but also multiple colored ones

00:01:44.600 --> 00:01:50.079
in the form of extensions that'll be universally compatible even with other

00:01:48.320 --> 00:01:54.040
power supplies there's one more neat accessory here I want to show you guys

00:01:51.320 --> 00:01:58.640
so you have a 5 and 1/4 in Bay on your notebook okay cool you don't use your

00:01:56.119 --> 00:02:03.799
optical drive forget about it put an SSD in this okay it adapts the native

00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:08.399
connector that's inside your Bay to a 2 and a half inch Mount and you're Off to

00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:12.920
the Races you've added an SSD to your notebook or even a second SSD at that

00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:18.280
point now we're going to move over to this table here where we've got sort of

00:02:15.440 --> 00:02:24.280
an updated line uh some updated products in the Treasure storage Series so

00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:28.319
they've got a tubay small enclosure this

00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:30.599
guy right here is USB 3 they have a 2bay

00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:36.040
larger enclosure this one support raid USB 3 and EA which actually drives

00:02:33.959 --> 00:02:40.200
inside it right now as well so it's quite heavy here very solid construction

00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:44.040
so solid piece of aluminum on the front brushed for a very nice finish let's go

00:02:42.480 --> 00:02:47.640
ahead and open that up so these you can just pop out it's totally toolless you

00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:51.200
just use the handle right there and last but not least they have a 4B version of

00:02:49.640 --> 00:02:55.239
pretty much that one they're also getting into mobile accessories so this

00:02:52.879 --> 00:03:00.760
is this is cool actually this is a 7 mm slim 2 1/2 in uh external drive so you

00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:05.120
can put either a slim hard drive or a slim SSD in there as long as it's 7 mil

00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:08.680
so I'll pull out the old iPhone comparison here just so you guys can see

00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:13.120
it's not that much thicker actually it's about the same as an iPhone 4 and then

00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:16.840
in terms of the size this way it's uh not that much bigger so very very

00:03:14.720 --> 00:03:20.799
convenient very rugged because it's made out of what appears to be a solid piece

00:03:18.959 --> 00:03:24.680
of aluminum around the outside here so very very whoops very strong once you do

00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:28.159
up the screws they've also got a couple of mobile charging accessories so this

00:03:27.040 --> 00:03:33.040
this is kind of neat because it takes ablea batteries I mean yeah there's solar charging ones there's ones that

00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:37.439
you charge over USB but it's there's something to be said for the convenience

00:03:34.480 --> 00:03:43.159
of being able to say oh crap I can't charge my thing I have nothing I have no

00:03:39.920 --> 00:03:44.920
access to a wall outlet but I can go buy

00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:51.439
some batteries or I carry AA batteries with me or whatever else so there's a two battery one as well as a four

00:03:48.959 --> 00:03:54.640
battery version of that available we're going to wrap up this clip of the

00:03:52.840 --> 00:04:01.599
Silverstone Suite with a couple of cases here so we recently uh did a video on

00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:03.640
the NC Tech tips Channel of the sg9 well

00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:08.760
this is the sg10 which is basically the same case very Innovative case very

00:04:05.760 --> 00:04:12.560
compact case takes 4 2 1 12 in drives

00:04:08.760 --> 00:04:16.079
two 3 and 1/2 in drives two dual slot

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:17.919
graphics cards an matx motherboard up to

00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:21.959
like a th000 watt power supply or whatever you can fit in a standard ATX

00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:25.440
huge Tower cooler it's a very very well engineered case and what they've done is

00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:30.919
they've taken the plastic bezel off of it and they've added a more Silverstone

00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:32.800
looking uh aluminum and and mesh bezel

00:04:30.919 --> 00:04:37.240
that is much more in line with sort of the the design styling that I'd expect

00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:40.520
from them the way that things stay cool enough in a chassis like this is there's

00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:45.440
actually fans built into the side panel and a very large air penetrator fan on

00:04:42.520 --> 00:04:48.000
the top that forces air into the chassis and it's it should be filtered I don't

00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:52.520
know where the top of this is but I'm quite certain that it's filtered so it forces her into the chassis while

00:04:50.880 --> 00:04:57.960
keeping dust out of it and if you've heard of Intel's new platform this is

00:04:54.199 --> 00:05:00.039
the PTU 13 so that's their their super

00:04:57.960 --> 00:05:04.680
low power sort of Highly integrated platform so check this out the board has

00:05:01.960 --> 00:05:09.919
an integrated power supply right here power in AC no big deal okay and then it

00:05:08.080 --> 00:05:13.600
adapts that to or rather you need it sorry you need a power adapter to go

00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:17.720
into here so it's a DC to to DC power supply so it's got things like SATA

00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:21.280
power output try to get you a better angle on that so you can plug in your

00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:24.880
single Drive which is going to sit right up here on the lid you've got two SATA

00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:28.919
data connectors and Silverstone has a special cooler for it that also is able

00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:32.720
to keep the CPU cool as well there's a PCI forx slot on this particular Intel

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:37.039
board but I don't know if you'd be able to use it but the point of this is not

00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:42.199
necessarily maximum expandability to a sodum slots as well as an MSA slot here

00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:46.000
as well as a mini PCIe for wireless so it's not necessarily expandability but

00:05:43.840 --> 00:05:50.800
more just to do with the size so in this case we have a full computer excluding

00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:54.400
the external power supply that is basically in the form factor that we

00:05:52.680 --> 00:06:00.319
would have seen a 5 and a/4 inch external optical drive only a few short

00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:04.600
years ago don't miss any any of our CES 2013 coverage and don't forget to
