00:00:07,839 --> 00:00:15,640
today I have a product to unbox that is

2
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:18,119
so cool that it comes in three

3
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:22,720
boxes at the same time so this is actually I guess you

4
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:29,439
could probably do it in only two boxes but this is the mushkin copper head

5
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:34,920
memory kit and so I'm going to show you all the things that it comes with keep

6
00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:39,680
your eyes on the boxes which one has what inside given that you don't know

7
00:00:36,879 --> 00:00:44,840
what's inside any of them yet it's going to be very difficult to pick

8
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:47,719
out which one has the sexy memory

9
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:51,600
modules and which one has the water block that goes with them so the first

10
00:00:49,719 --> 00:00:57,160
thing I'm going to show you guys is what I have here these are I actually

11
00:00:53,640 --> 00:01:00,120
specifically asked for very basic memory

12
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:06,159
um but most of the copperhead SKS are going to be very very high-end memory um

13
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:10,080
in you know PC uh DDR3 2133 for example

14
00:01:06,159 --> 00:01:13,119
these are only DDR3 uh 1600 kits okay so

15
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:15,280
these are 2x4 gig kits two of them for a

16
00:01:13,119 --> 00:01:21,280
total of 16 gigs of RAM and this is going to be for my ultimate uh

17
00:01:18,479 --> 00:01:26,960
extreme uh build guide okay so I'm going to have 16 gigs of mushin DDR3 now the

18
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:33,960
reason that I ended up going with the DDR 3600 versus like a 213 33 or an 1866

19
00:01:31,479 --> 00:01:38,200
higher spec like that is that I opted for this machine to go with higher

20
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:43,600
capacity of RAM so if I had decided to go for a 2x4 so just 8 gigs of total RAM

21
00:01:41,799 --> 00:01:47,960
then being able to get it to run at high frequencies is much easier whereas if I

22
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:51,560
go for lower frequencies then I can bulk up and I can throw in four sticks of

23
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:57,280
memory without worrying about any stability problems now here is where the

24
00:01:54,320 --> 00:02:01,680
magic happens this I'm going to be careful not to

25
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:07,640
touch the top as much as possible is the mushin enhanced Copperhead water block

26
00:02:05,479 --> 00:02:12,480
so what you do is you take these two pieces right here which are spacers that

27
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:19,239
have O-rings on them you put those spacers here okay you screw your uh your

28
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:23,040
Barbed um your threaded Barb into the top of it and you can actually install

29
00:02:20,959 --> 00:02:27,720
any standard G1 qu fittings that you want onto the copperhead water block but

30
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:31,200
wait there's more you take the copper head water block

31
00:02:31,239 --> 00:02:38,200
all right so we got our screws here position it over top of a copperhead

32
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:44,280
memory module and you can actually screw in any number of copperhead modules

33
00:02:41,319 --> 00:02:49,040
whether it is three or four I think four is the max and you screw that in you put

34
00:02:47,239 --> 00:02:54,680
some thermal interface material in between the top of the copperhead module

35
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:58,080
here which you can see is flat and the

36
00:02:54,680 --> 00:03:00,560
bottom of the water block itself and

37
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:06,920
that is how you cool your memory using water cooling so what this allows you to

38
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:11,640
do is it allows you to install these modules and then the block on top of it

39
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:18,440
no matter what the spacing of your RAM slots is and it allows you to install

40
00:03:15,239 --> 00:03:20,959
three three sticks in triple Channel or

41
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:24,400
up to four sticks in dual channel so stay tuned for my ultimate build guide

42
00:03:22,599 --> 00:03:30,680
actually if you come over here you can see my in progress Ultimate machine

43
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:32,280
which will actually be a lot better when

44
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:36,120
I'm done with it so don't look too closely at it right

45
00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:40,840
now and thank you for checking out my unboxing of the mushkin copper head
