Linus Tech tips coverage of computex 2013 is powered by Western Digital our

2
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:11,080
trusted gaming gear partner is Corsair Vengeance and our trusted retail partner

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:11,080
is

4
00:00:12,120 --> 00:00:19,600
nc.com welcome to the NZXT Suite where we've got a few new products on display

5
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:24,000
so number one is their h82 V2 series power supplies these are aiming to bring

6
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:28,160
fully modular power supplies down to Affordable price points so this right

7
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:33,160
here is a 550 W power supply it's 80 plus bronze it has a 135 mm cooling fan

8
00:00:31,119 --> 00:00:36,320
and is of course I mean if they hadn't managed to make it fully modular then

9
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:41,239
they wouldn't have achieved their goal so the idea here is just that if you

10
00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:45,000
want cable management and you don't need a huge High wattage power supply and

11
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:49,160
you're okay with 80 plus bronze then you can save a few bucks and get a Hal 82 V2

12
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:54,280
there's also another version of it the V2s which is a 750 wat power supply that

13
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:59,359
will only be available in 220/230 volt whichever the voltage is

14
00:00:56,719 --> 00:01:06,159
countries so not in my country so let's move on on this right here is the

15
00:01:02,879 --> 00:01:09,119
Phantom 530 this is the first time the

16
00:01:06,159 --> 00:01:11,680
Phantom has been redone since well okay well it hasn't been that long since

17
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:16,720
they've done a new Phantom but this is the first time they've done what is essentially a redesign of the original

18
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:20,200
Phantom so what have they changed here number one is you might notice that the

19
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:24,200
window is bigger personally I think this is great because when you're going to

20
00:01:21,759 --> 00:01:28,400
buy a flashy pants case you might as well show off the flashy pants Hardware

21
00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:32,119
that you've got inside it number two is the fact that they have added uh a

22
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:37,799
mechanism that allows you to spin the case around with one oh wait no it so it

23
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:39,520
doesn't come with this right oh sorry

24
00:01:37,799 --> 00:01:42,920
okay it does not come with the Lazy Susan underneath no but they've widened

25
00:01:41,479 --> 00:01:48,840
the chassis a little bit so this has done a couple of things that allows them to mount a 140 millim fan in the back

26
00:01:47,079 --> 00:01:53,360
instead of just a 120 they've still got that height adjustable thing that they

27
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:56,520
do as well as d da da da da here in the

28
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:59,000
front you can do a 200 mm cooling fan

29
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:02,759
down here or you can actually Mount some radiators instead so let's go ahead and

30
00:02:00,759 --> 00:02:07,240
get this bad boy open after we show you the single channel 30 W fan controller

31
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:11,319
so let's go ahead and open this up don't worry the real one will we hold on this

32
00:02:09,879 --> 00:02:18,360
is hard to do with one hand you guys there we go all right so inside there we

33
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:22,840
go so you can do either single 200 mm or

34
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:26,000
dual 140 mm or a dual 120 mm radiator up

35
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:28,680
in the top you've got full support for a

36
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:32,400
dual 140 mm radiator so that means the Kraken x60 is going to fit in here no

37
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:36,840
problem you've also got support for a single 360 mm radiator if you want to do

38
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:40,800
custom liquid cooling so you can actually fill this thing up with an

39
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:43,959
unbelievable amount of Radiators which is even better than the original Phantom

40
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:49,440
I guess if you're going to redo something you might as well do it better you've got metal latches for the 5 and

41
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:52,959
a/4 inch Bay personally this gives me some confidence but I'm still going to

42
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,720
opt to use the yes they're there optional screw-ins for those just

43
00:02:54,640 --> 00:03:00,360
because you don't want them flying around during shipping you've also got 3

44
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:03,879
plus 2 plus one hard drive cages that are also compatible with ssds what I

45
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:09,640
like about these is the fact that they're modular these are some of the we're seeing some features here that

46
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:14,599
have been on higher end and newer NZXT cases for a while now but remember guys

47
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:19,760
the Phantom was their first fully custom designed by NZXT case so there have been

48
00:03:17,959 --> 00:03:24,640
some Innovations since then it was probably time to do this so you can move

49
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:29,560
these around stack them however you want and let's move around to the back on the

50
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:33,840
back we see this this is actually one of my favorite things that they've started

51
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:37,120
to do this built-in Fan Hub so instead of having to worry about like oh well

52
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:43,799
I'm going to plug it in there and there and there and there one switch on the top of the case changes all your fans

53
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:47,280
12vt 7vt 5vt you plug all your fans into one place that's nice and hidden so you

54
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:51,480
can bring it back here they've got like I don't know what it is like 100 billion

55
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:55,840
little cable Loop Ties on the back here so that you can route all your cables

56
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:59,840
and keep them away from that large window that's going to make your system

57
00:03:57,239 --> 00:04:03,879
look sexy now let's go over here where you can actually see that there are more

58
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:06,920
colors of the Phantom 530 this is white so there's white black and red at the

59
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:12,640
start and they've got a prototype product in here that is kind of kind of

60
00:04:09,519 --> 00:04:14,239
ridiculous so liquid cooling on graphics

61
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:20,880
cards we've been we've been seeing this for years I remember Sapphire did like a

62
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:23,040
toxic like 5870 or some with an acitech

63
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:26,919
liquid cooler it was a total disaster because compatibility was a nightmare so

64
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:31,199
what NZXT has done is they've gone and made it Universal so with just this

65
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:35,919
Brack ET which you get for what like 19 bucks or something stupid like that 15

66
00:04:33,479 --> 00:04:39,840
bucks these are dual Titans that are running this NZXT bracket they're

67
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:43,759
compatible with any acitech liquid cooler so this is just a kraken x60

68
00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:48,199
running through the little bracket here and then it mounts a 92mm fan that cools

69
00:04:46,280 --> 00:04:52,000
the card so they've got dual Titans running in here with a solution that

70
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:58,000
costs between this cooler and this bracket less than a 100 bucks which is

71
00:04:54,320 --> 00:05:00,280
definitely less than a liquid cooling

72
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,800
water block I mean and sort of the flip side of that is Linus well it also

73
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,479
doesn't cool the whole card like a liquid cooling water block and you blah

74
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:10,160
blah blah it doesn't improve performance liquid cooling that much actually wrong

75
00:05:08,479 --> 00:05:15,400
because with something like a GTX Titan with GPU Boost 2.0 keeping the card

76
00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:19,840
cooler actually makes it run faster and the most important part to make it run

77
00:05:17,199 --> 00:05:24,319
cooler is the GPU core itself so this is an incredibly smart way to address that

78
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:27,360
particular problem and I guess since we're here we might as well show you the

79
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,400
Black Version where they've got some custom liquid cooling running in here

80
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:35,680
I'm just going to go ahead and flip this around let my camera go check this out

81
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:40,840
so there's a 240 mm liquid cooler there 360 mm up here and then a couple of sort

82
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:45,520
of more traditional full cover GPU water blocks which leads us finally to a very

83
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:48,440
awkward change in position between me and my camera and everyone in the

84
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:54,039
suite's like running around to get out of my way here this is the h230 it is

85
00:05:51,479 --> 00:05:58,000
available in black or white and it is generally very similar to the H2 a quiet

86
00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:01,400
optimized case so you've got noise damping panels in here you've you've got

87
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:05,319
a removable cage right here all the drives are actually mounted from reverse

88
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:09,680
so you've got six 2 and 1/2 or 3 and 1/2 in drives full ATX motherboard support

89
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:14,039
and I personally really like the bezel design I think it looks really clean and

90
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:18,960
I mean I guess that's all there really is to say about it looks clean very nice

91
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:23,680
and I think that pretty much wraps it up guys don't miss any of our computex 2013

95
00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:41,199
evidently I was wrong that is an x40 not

96
00:06:37,280 --> 00:06:43,080
an x60 clearly you cannot fit a 280 mm

97
00:06:41,199 --> 00:06:47,120
liquid cooler in the front of the case sideways if you could we'd be looking at

98
00:06:45,319 --> 00:06:53,400
like a cube case and this is clearly not one of those also I made AIT bit of a

99
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:55,240
mistake so NZXT point was not that with

100
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:58,800
nx40 and this bracket you could get it for under $100 because that would cost a

101
00:06:57,039 --> 00:07:03,160
little more than $100 but it's compatible with other acch OEM liquid

102
00:07:01,039 --> 00:07:07,639
coolers even from the likes of Corsair such as the H50 so if you grabbed an H50

103
00:07:05,639 --> 00:07:12,520
paired it up with the NZXT bracket then you could liquid cooler your graphics

104
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,520
card for under $100
