00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.640
Linus Tech tips coverage of computex 2013 is powered by Western Digital our

00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:11.040
trusted gaming gear partner is Corsair Vengeance and our trusted retail partner

00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:11.040
is

00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:24.920
nc.com so we're kicking things off at the thermal take Booth with a pretty

00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:27.840
freaking cool set of case mods here so

00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:32.559
this one right here is an a30 case but you'd hardly recognize it with the world

00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:36.840
of tanks mod that we got going on so a rotating turret has been placed on the

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:42.680
top of the case with a little Gunner guy here and a big gun right here now the

00:00:39.239 --> 00:00:44.520
a30 is actually an matx case is

00:00:42.680 --> 00:00:49.480
optimized for air flow you've got a couple of frosted Windows on either side

00:00:47.239 --> 00:00:54.879
as well as ventilation for your graphics card as well as for the CPU memory area

00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:58.640
on the other side other than that it's a pretty standard layout you got a couple

00:00:56.920 --> 00:01:03.000
5 and a/ qu inch Bays on the front though you can hardly see them with all

00:01:00.559 --> 00:01:08.439
of the uh you know enormous you know tank extensions that we got going on on

00:01:04.839 --> 00:01:10.880
the front here USB 2 USB 3 EA I still

00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:15.720
like to see EA it's still a faster standard now my understanding is this

00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:20.759
thing actually moves can you please take it down for the audience and uh and uh

00:01:19.240 --> 00:01:25.240
all right thank you this this is going to be this are going to be pretty cool we asked them to uh to take them down

00:01:23.880 --> 00:01:31.079
and and drive them around for us and they were kind of like uh yeah okay so

00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:36.479
here we here we go guys we are going to be we're going to be fire firing malayer

00:01:33.759 --> 00:01:42.159
so to speak show us show us how it's done oh uhoh there we

00:01:39.479 --> 00:01:44.759
go check that out so the Treads actually move one of

00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:51.280
the we got to turn turn that around so one of the other cool things about this

00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:57.719
case is it has a very modular design allowing you to take it apart completely

00:01:53.840 --> 00:02:00.719
and oh no this is what happens at trade

00:01:57.719 --> 00:02:00.719
shows

00:02:03.960 --> 00:02:10.720
should we try the other one hey there we go all right we're

00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:14.360
moving so you can take the whole case apart build your PC and then put the

00:02:13.040 --> 00:02:18.519
whole thing back together due to the modular design now it doesn't have quite

00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:22.680
the same terrain climbing ability as an actual tank but without further Ado I

00:02:20.959 --> 00:02:27.560
think we'll show you some actual case designs that you can buy from thermal t

00:02:25.040 --> 00:02:32.000
as opposed to Crazy modded ones oh yeah we didn't see this before but the gun

00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:36.879
the gun kind of fires here which is uh pretty cool oh oh oh they're aiming at

00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:42.800
me they're aiming at the camera aiming at the camera you better you get to oh

00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:49.800
no okay so they're not tanks but the urban series is getting a serious

00:02:47.519 --> 00:02:55.560
overhaul so the C Series is getting aluminum front panels these are all the

00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:58.599
urban cases are quiet optimized with

00:02:55.560 --> 00:03:00.319
that said you can get them with windowed

00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:05.319
side panels however if you wanted the ultimate in silence obviously you would

00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:09.840
lean towards the one with the plain side panel that has noise dampening material

00:03:07.200 --> 00:03:15.640
on it there's a full line of uh of different cases here so everything from

00:03:11.959 --> 00:03:18.519
larger Tower cases to matx Tower cases

00:03:15.640 --> 00:03:23.799
as well as even over here you've got between the S1 and the sd1 two matx

00:03:21.640 --> 00:03:29.599
versions one of which is a tower and one of which is a more of a desktop case or

00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:35.760
or a cube case moving around to this side we've got again more urban cases so

00:03:33.239 --> 00:03:40.760
available in multiple colors now multiple designs but again all with that

00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:44.200
quiet optimized design and of course these are brand new cases so you've got

00:03:42.239 --> 00:03:47.959
all the updated feature sets such as things like front USB 3 ports and let's

00:03:46.799 --> 00:03:54.000
move all the way over here I just want you guys to check out this is the s71

00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:56.599
snow Edition this is here we go lots and

00:03:54.000 --> 00:04:00.120
lots of room for all the Hardwares inside this

00:03:58.079 --> 00:04:03.480
one now of course you're going to need cooling for all that stuff whether you

00:04:01.640 --> 00:04:08.799
want silence optimized or performance optimized and this right here is their

00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:15.159
new Nick series of cooler so this is the NX C5 inside here and what Nick stands

00:04:11.799 --> 00:04:17.320
for is network interface card however

00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:22.680
that is not what we mean in this context you can see there is some higher profile

00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:27.680
of xir RAM next to this cooler and they are demoing see how the way the Shroud

00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:31.120
actually overlaps with the fan rather than just building a bulky cooler and

00:04:29.320 --> 00:04:36.600
then St wrapping a fan to it they're going for a Slimmer profile that allows

00:04:33.880 --> 00:04:41.120
you to use high profile memory right next to your CPU Cooler without running

00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:45.720
into any random interference that causes all kinds of problems even with

00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:49.759
something like an x79 motherboard where you can have four dims on each side

00:04:47.919 --> 00:04:54.560
another side effect of this is that if you have very high memory modules such

00:04:52.440 --> 00:04:57.919
as Corsair Dominator platinums you're actually going to get some incidental

00:04:55.840 --> 00:05:02.720
cooling for them as well because that 120 mm fan is going to be sitting right

00:05:00.919 --> 00:05:07.320
next to it so let's go over to where the rest of the Nick series is on display

00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:13.000
over here we're going to move as quickly as we

00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:14.479
can so there are a wide variety of these

00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:19.639
coolers some of them with high performance looking shrouds some of them

00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:23.039
that are more more basic options but of course you guys watch Linus Tech tips so

00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:28.800
you know we're all about the liquid cooling the water line of products is

00:05:25.919 --> 00:05:33.319
getting an update already so water 3.0 extreme the changes here are tuning to

00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:36.919
the water block itself as well as to the design of the fans that have allowed

00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:41.240
thermal T to maintain that same performance that we were so impressed

00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:45.759
with with the water 2.0 extreme but with a Slimmer radiator which is going to

00:05:42.840 --> 00:05:48.720
improve case compatibility so I really look forward to seeing if they did pull

00:05:47.400 --> 00:05:53.080
that off because that was one of the things that I really liked about the

00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:58.199
extreme 2.0 was just the fact that it did outperform other dual 120 mm liquid

00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:04.160
coolers and then there is of course the pro series as as well as performance

00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:06.240
line so that's a slim rad single 120 mm

00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:12.280
and then the so that's the performer and then the pro is a thick rad 120 mm and

00:06:09.840 --> 00:06:16.919
they all feature two fans either in push pull or simply in a pull or push

00:06:14.840 --> 00:06:20.599
configuration for the extreme so this has been our coverage of the thermal
