on","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":146.12,"end_s":153.519,"text":"that was actually surprisingly good for a $50 case there was one thing that I","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":151.239,"end_s":159.08,"text":"kind of wandered about and it was that little piece that uh covers the the

a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":160.2,"end_s":165.44,"text":"cost-saving measure or or what absolutely yeah so if you look at the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":163.64,"end_s":168.0,"text":"back of most cases there's a second piece it's a single piece of Steel","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":166.879,"end_s":173.08,"text":"that's stamped and there's a second piece that's inlaid into that and actually to get down to kind of $49 and","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":171.48,"end_s":176.92,"text":"maintaining other features like USB 3 and SSD compatibility we wanted to make","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":175.04,"end_s":180.64,"text":"that a single large piece in the back but you can't uh stamp that depth in","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":179.04,"end_s":183.64,"text":"easily so what you do is you stamp it all flush and then you have the the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":182.2,"end_s":187.319,"text":"video cards pop out and then you have to have a separate card adapter on that so","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":185.64,"end_s":190.599,"text":"you see a lot of uh lower price and value cases will do that um and","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":189.48,"end_s":195.92,"text":"sometimes even guys that are a little bit less scrupulous will use a cheaper chassis that has that feature and add a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":194.12,"end_s":198.56,"text":"couple other things in charge 99 or 100 bucks for that so there's some other","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":197.319,"end_s":202.4,"text":"guys out there that do that but we use that basically on our value price cases","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":200.319,"end_s":207.68,"text":"budget price cases like this one well so basically I had to choose between sort","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":204.72,"end_s":211.2,"text":"of rolled edges in here and slicing open my fingers or having an ugly piece of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":209.56,"end_s":215.439,"text":"metal in the back and you guys went with well we'll go with the ugly piece of metal in the back and the saved fingers","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":213.959,"end_s":218.4,"text":"yeah if you got to do something ugly put it in the back you know that's kind of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":217.04,"end_s":224.159,"text":"how I feel about it that's why I sit in the back of restaurants so you're you're","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":220.799,"end_s":226.799,"text":"a boobs guy the ugly can be in the back","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":224.159,"end_s":231.519,"text":"all right let's let's move on to the cooler all right we got another product","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":228.84,"end_s":235.72,"text":"from George here this is the hg10 is that correct and so the idea behind this","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":233.439,"end_s":238.599,"text":"is you take an all-in-one cooler presumably you guys would like people to","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":237.079,"end_s":242.76,"text":"use a Corsair one but will it work with other ones anything that is Ace Tech","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":240.68,"end_s":246.439,"text":"Source that uh I've tried it will work so some of the NZXT stuff works but of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":244.519,"end_s":251.56,"text":"course our products are superior in all ways right okay got it and so the idea","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":249.28,"end_s":254.72,"text":"is they take a Corsair liquid cooler bolt it to their video card in a way","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":253.239,"end_s":259.16,"text":"that's a little bit more elegant than what we've seen in the past with zip ties or whatever else but what what are","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":257.799,"end_s":262.759,"text":"what do the results look like for an hg10 versus a stock card you guys have","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":261.28,"end_s":265.919,"text":"got them running side by side here yeah so the important thing is is unlike just","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":264.44,"end_s":270.08,"text":"kind of having a bracket that attaches the GPU the hydrocool to a GPU this is","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":268.479,"end_s":273.639,"text":"actually a heat sink too so it it hooks up to the vrms it hooks up to the memory","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":271.919,"end_s":278.12,"text":"which means that it needs to be made specifically for that card so this is","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":275.84,"end_s":282.56,"text":"the n780 Edition and this is the one for the NVIDIA 770 780 780ti Titan and Titan","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":281.199,"end_s":286.199,"text":"black which all use the same layout for the vrms and the memory so that's what","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":284.44,"end_s":289.4,"text":"this one's for um it'll allow you to work with any of our coolers and what it","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":287.44,"end_s":293.96,"text":"really does is right now it's cooling the GPU and the memory and vrm much","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":292.24,"end_s":299.199,"text":"better with an h75 cooler it's kind of our mid-range cooler with some very","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":295.639,"end_s":302.039,"text":"lowspeed uh sp12 LED fans on it and what","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":299.199,"end_s":306.759,"text":"we have right now is it's running at uh 58° C on the GPU at full firm Mark load","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":305.0,"end_s":311.199,"text":"after about half an hour firm Mark here and on the standard reference card on","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":308.56,"end_s":316.12,"text":"the 780 it's running at 83 so there's a 25 degree difference here uh importantly","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":313.759,"end_s":320.319,"text":"also the RPM of the blower fan is 2700 RPM here and we're down at 1700 RPM","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":318.199,"end_s":323.68,"text":"there so it's significantly quieter as well and then that means something","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":322.16,"end_s":327.479,"text":"significantly we are actually thermally throttle so the NVIDIA reference design","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":325.36,"end_s":331.44,"text":"cooler is throttling itself down to 823 MHz ours is running at the full speed","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":329.919,"end_s":335.44,"text":"and that adds another 5 or 6% performance even in just firmar so I","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":333.4,"end_s":339.6,"text":"mean and and 5 to 6% doesn't sound like a lot but if it's a free 5 to 6% then","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":338.08,"end_s":343.8,"text":"you know I'll take it but it's not free is it it's not free it costs $39 for the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":341.919,"end_s":347.56,"text":"bracket because it's an aluminum bracket um you reuse the blower from the stock","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":345.36,"end_s":350.24,"text":"card because it cools the vrms in the memory you have to use a reference","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":348.759,"end_s":353.36,"text":"design board because these other guys are doing kind of custom boards but if","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":351.96,"end_s":356.88,"text":"you're buying a custom car that has a big custom heat sink on it you bought","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":355.16,"end_s":359.96,"text":"that specifically for that heat sink you you know so this is really for guys who","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":358.16,"end_s":364.36,"text":"have a reference board and want want to use a new way of cooling it so if you","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":362.319,"end_s":367.28,"text":"you know you have a 780 or a 770 you want to squeeze a few extra you know","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":365.68,"end_s":371.4,"text":"drops of performance out of it this is a good way to do that you throw an old hydr cooler on it and you know you can","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":370.4,"end_s":375.4,"text":"get a lot of performance without having to spend a whole bunch of money and buy a whole new card so you guys aren't","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":374.16,"end_s":381.52,"text":"really pitching this as the kind of thing that you expect someone to buy a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":377.319,"end_s":383.24,"text":"hydr cooler buy the hg10 and and cool","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":381.52,"end_s":386.28,"text":"their car this is more like if they you have a a hydro kind of sitting in a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":384.68,"end_s":391.4,"text":"closet somewhere and and you're not really using you've upgraded to something else that can work that way uh","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":389.28,"end_s":395.52,"text":"I mean a lot of people even though it's counterintuitive a lot of people will","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":393.36,"end_s":399.599,"text":"still kind of use the the best cooler in their case to cool the CPU even though","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":397.08,"end_s":402.319,"text":"the GPU produces much more heat um so realistically you know you're at two 300","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":401.16,"end_s":406.36,"text":"watts of heat on some of these graphics cards and only you know 100 or 89

and","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":408.72,"end_s":413.68,"text":"some generic run-ofthe-mill thing that comes with a graphics card but if you","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":411.84,"end_s":420.12,"text":"want to you can go buy a new cooler for this you can use whatever you have in your closet it'll work with you know an","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":416.12,"end_s":422.56,"text":"h55 h75 h100 all that stuff um we do","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":420.12,"end_s":426.4,"text":"have versions

the market first cuz","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":427.639,"end_s":433.16,"text":"there's a ton of 700 series cards out there and there's a lot of people who would like to get a little

or","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":434.879,"end_s":439.84,"text":"980 because the performance is only you know 10 12 15% difference um and they","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":438.919,"end_s":446.199,"text":"might as well get a bit of extra performance out of the cards they have fair enough all right so thank you

we're here in the Corsair Suite with everybody's favorite Corsair PM for cases George how many case PMS do you have at Corsair uh I'm the only one all right so you're definitely definitely our favorite but also the worst yes also best and worst at the same time yeah so show us what travesty you've uh you're showing off for this show here no I'm just I'm I'm just messing with you these look like an improvement to me what what are they exactly yeah these are the horrors we've Unleashed upon you um so we released last year the spec o1 spec O2 and spec3 which are kind of gaming focused value price cases I'll hold this and uh they were designed basically for uh South America Asia some gaming Focus stuff we had a lot of people that like the chassis but said can you do like a more refined and cleaner design and so that's what this is it's the same exact chassis as a specco one but we put kind of a 200 R Style on the front and called it a 100r so it's a very clean minimalistic black front it's textured to look like aluminum dual USB 3 ports Room for 2 140 mm fans in front two 120s on top and a 120 in back and then uh you've got uh Seven slots power supply on bottom dust filter on the bottom the mesh is intake from the side here and then four hard drive Bays inside for ssds or regular drives cable routing holes all that stuff so for 49 bucks it comes with 120 mm fan two USB 3 ports it's it's pretty pretty solid for 50 bucks um for $10 more for $59 you can get the $100 silent Edition which oh go plugged in well it is plugged in and that probably broke it's only the beginning of the show and I'm already completely destroy that's all right it's the only one we own um this is the $100 silent Edition same exact chassis inside but it gets rid of the window um and gets rid of the top mesh because we wanted to make it quieter and the Windows and top mesh actually hurt noise level production so what we want to do is take that out put sound damping top top sides and front we added a three-speed fan control switch right there and it comes with a second 12 120mm fan so you can get better air flow through it when it's uh quieter so that is $59 so for $10 more you get the silent version so there's the 100r and 100 R silent Edition both will be available in February uh and here's your mic back so I mean my feedback on the spec it was the spec 01 the red one that I checked out before so my feedback on that was actually surprisingly good for a $50 case there was one thing that I kind of wandered about and it was that little piece that uh covers the the the the access for the PCI slot covers what was the deal with that is that like a cost-saving measure or or what absolutely yeah so if you look at the back of most cases there's a second piece it's a single piece of Steel that's stamped and there's a second piece that's inlaid into that and actually to get down to kind of $49 and maintaining other features like USB 3 and SSD compatibility we wanted to make that a single large piece in the back but you can't uh stamp that depth in easily so what you do is you stamp it all flush and then you have the the video cards pop out and then you have to have a separate card adapter on that so you see a lot of uh lower price and value cases will do that um and sometimes even guys that are a little bit less scrupulous will use a cheaper chassis that has that feature and add a couple other things in charge 99 or 100 bucks for that so there's some other guys out there that do that but we use that basically on our value price cases budget price cases like this one well so basically I had to choose between sort of rolled edges in here and slicing open my fingers or having an ugly piece of metal in the back and you guys went with well we'll go with the ugly piece of metal in the back and the saved fingers yeah if you got to do something ugly put it in the back you know that's kind of how I feel about it that's why I sit in the back of restaurants so you're you're a boobs guy the ugly can be in the back all right let's let's move on to the cooler all right we got another product from George here this is the hg10 is that correct and so the idea behind this is you take an all-in-one cooler presumably you guys would like people to use a Corsair one but will it work with other ones anything that is Ace Tech Source that uh I've tried it will work so some of the NZXT stuff works but of course our products are superior in all ways right okay got it and so the idea is they take a Corsair liquid cooler bolt it to their video card in a way that's a little bit more elegant than what we've seen in the past with zip ties or whatever else but what what are what do the results look like for an hg10 versus a stock card you guys have got them running side by side here yeah so the important thing is is unlike just kind of having a bracket that attaches the GPU the hydrocool to a GPU this is actually a heat sink too so it it hooks up to the vrms it hooks up to the memory which means that it needs to be made specifically for that card so this is the n780 Edition and this is the one for the NVIDIA 770 780 780ti Titan and Titan black which all use the same layout for the vrms and the memory so that's what this one's for um it'll allow you to work with any of our coolers and what it really does is right now it's cooling the GPU and the memory and vrm much better with an h75 cooler it's kind of our mid-range cooler with some very lowspeed uh sp12 LED fans on it and what we have right now is it's running at uh 58° C on the GPU at full firm Mark load after about half an hour firm Mark here and on the standard reference card on the 780 it's running at 83 so there's a 25 degree difference here uh importantly also the RPM of the blower fan is 2700 RPM here and we're down at 1700 RPM there so it's significantly quieter as well and then that means something significantly we are actually thermally throttle so the NVIDIA reference design cooler is throttling itself down to 823 MHz ours is running at the full speed and that adds another 5 or 6% performance even in just firmar so I mean and and 5 to 6% doesn't sound like a lot but if it's a free 5 to 6% then you know I'll take it but it's not free is it it's not free it costs $39 for the bracket because it's an aluminum bracket um you reuse the blower from the stock card because it cools the vrms in the memory you have to use a reference design board because these other guys are doing kind of custom boards but if you're buying a custom car that has a big custom heat sink on it you bought that specifically for that heat sink you you know so this is really for guys who have a reference board and want want to use a new way of cooling it so if you you know you have a 780 or a 770 you want to squeeze a few extra you know drops of performance out of it this is a good way to do that you throw an old hydr cooler on it and you know you can get a lot of performance without having to spend a whole bunch of money and buy a whole new card so you guys aren't really pitching this as the kind of thing that you expect someone to buy a hydr cooler buy the hg10 and and cool their car this is more like if they you have a a hydro kind of sitting in a closet somewhere and and you're not really using you've upgraded to something else that can work that way uh I mean a lot of people even though it's counterintuitive a lot of people will still kind of use the the best cooler in their case to cool the CPU even though the GPU produces much more heat um so realistically you know you're at two 300 watts of heat on some of these graphics cards and only you know 100 or 89 Watts or whatever on the the CPU and people will still use a $100 CPU Cooler and some generic run-ofthe-mill thing that comes with a graphics card but if you want to you can go buy a new cooler for this you can use whatever you have in your closet it'll work with you know an h55 h75 h100 all that stuff um we do have versions for the n970 and n980 coming out very soon so you'll see those in the next few months um but this one's going to be hitting the market first cuz there's a ton of 700 series cards out there and there's a lot of people who would like to get a little bit extra performance out of it but they don't really want to buy a whole new 970 or 980 because the performance is only you know 10 12 15% difference um and they might as well get a bit of extra performance out of the cards they have fair enough all right so thank you very much for sharing with us about the uh sleer edition of the speo one a case that I actually like surprisingly a lot given that it was a $50 case as well as the upcoming liquid coolers guys uh give a shout out to George in the comments below you guys know you love him he's the best darn case pm at Corsair and uh don't miss any of our CES coverage make sure you guys are subscribed also a huge thank you shout out to our sponsors Phantom glass they make the best darn screen protectors that have sponsored us here at CES no actually they really are the best that we've encountered they're Gorilla Glass so they're perfectly clear they feel nice on your fingers they're grease resistant they have a nano coating on the bottom so they go on without bubbles guaranteed it's actually as far as I can tell impossible to apply them with bubbles and I'm pretty sure right you can check them out at store. phantom.in in the video description and also a shout out to hyperx for sponsoring us here at the show you guys can check out all the great gaming content on their YouTube channel that's youtube.com/ hyperx also linked in the video description so we'll see you guys on our next video"}
