over","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":157.2,"end_s":163.64,"text":"a little under a year and a half um one of the things we thought of was we needed to come up with a new full

the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":208.439,"end_s":213.959,"text":"complete like you kind of tell we took the window off so there's a little

crazy","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":231.2,"end_s":238.2,"text":"stuff in here that you'd like to just kind of point at and say hey this might be cool as well um just the the

your source for great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western Digital now my biggest criticism of Corsair's innovation in the case Market has to be the fact that they still haven't come out with a four-door model they all have two doors now they moved a little bit more towards the direction of addressing the needs of people who want more doors on their cases with the 250d over there but this while it doesn't necessarily deal with that one complaint does address a complaint I didn't have and that is that cases need to be more seethrough okay now I've given you a totally sarcastic intro here but honestly I love this thing George tell us about the 760t with this full windowed side panel and and you you got to walk us through this a little bit here all right cool uh like you mentioned this is graphite series 76t uh it's a full tower case it's based on the awardwinning 750 one of the cool things about it like you mentioned is that full side pen window but that's just kind of the Cosmetic uh part of it so it's hinged so you can just open it really easily and get into your parts access really easy real quick and it's hinged on a pin so you just want to pull it off it comes right off and you can take care of it and put it away so it doesn't get scratched while you're working on your system the nice thing about the inside of it Excuse me while I put you put that over there okay so the nice thing about the inside of it is actually it maintains almost all the 750d features you have dual 140 mm front fans with a 280 or 240 mm radiator Mount you have a 360 mm mount on top you you have a 140 in the back you can put a single 120 on the bottom those side mounted ssds that everyone really liked on the 750 or back and then the removable and relocatable hard drive cages are there so this case has nine expansion slots so it's a true full tower as well it's really solid performance- wise and it looks really good too that full window gives you the ability to show off your full system and we've just put some Corsair link lighting stuff in there to show off the lighting capabilities now to be there's a couple things that I want to talk about that you didn't necessarily touch on and that is a I love 750d I think it's a great layout and the fact that it now has a more aggressive looking aesthetic I mean not everyone is going to like this better that's the cold hard truth but they don't have to now that there's a more aggressive looking aesthetic option for the people who don't like the clean lines as much as they like the bling I think that's fantastic and something you guys can't see but we'll get you some b-roll footage of is the fact that there's actually an acrylic panel on the other side as well so that one's not see-through so you don't have to see all the cable management behind it but it gives it a more uh balanced aesthetic so how long has this one been in the pipe we've been working on this since about a year to 15 months so about a little over a little under a year and a half um one of the things we thought of was we needed to come up with a new full tower chassis so 750d was the basis for it but then we know we had to to come up with a couple different variants tooling up a a base chassis is very expensive so we know that not Everyone likes the obsidian style ID so we wanted to dress it up a little bit with some other designs so this is one of the other designs we've been working on is the 760 now normally I I object to to a a very very large window but I think you guys are getting away with it here because of the excellent cable management and because of the good looks of the inside and you know what guys think about this for a moment when you see a really cool build how often is it that you know like say for example a fractal Define r for build how often is it that you see people do their finished shot with the side panel off because the cable management looks so good or whatever it is that they did well that's what this looks like all the time with the complete like you kind of tell we took the window off so there's a little latch here and then because it's made of Plexi it's obviously not that structurally strong compared to a piece of metal but there are magic pieces here and here also known as magnets that allow it to stay in place and still maintain that fleshiness that looks good I think you guys did a really great job on this one uh thanks very much George for walking us through it is there any other crazy stuff in here that you'd like to just kind of point at and say hey this might be cool as well um just the the fact that we have ton of clearance up here for taller radiators too I meant that power supply power supply oh yeah by the way power supply this is a prototype of the ax 1500i power supply uh the 1500i is kind of like the 1,200 with a couple of big changes obviously there's more power to it but the other side of it is it's now uh what would be the draft of the titanium spec so the 80 plus titanium spec doesn't exist right now but there's kind of a draft of it and this meets that draft spec so kind of like you were mentioning draft end routers or you know draft AC or whatever it was now it's it's kind of the draft spec of the titanium certified efficiency um the other side of it is we we went out and said we wanted power SP to be even quieter with RM we got them down to a really low noise level by actually hand selecting electrical components oh I get it so draft means you have air flow all the time rather than actually oh wait hold on maybe I've misunderstood no exactly not that yeah no um basically the premise is that uh that there are other things inside your power supply that cause noise besides the fan and we had fan lless modes on power supplies for a long time um one of the things that people notice when the fan isn't spinning is you can sometimes hear an electrical Buzz or coil line and things like that so

everything's running full load furmark uh Prime 95 is running crazy we're doing about 600 watts of output right now so it's only about you know kind of a little between a third and a half of its Max

showing us this uh surprisingly interesting one it really caught my eye when I walked in the room cool thanks man all right guys don't miss any of our CES 2014 coverage remember our trip to the show this year is powered by nc.com as well as has our other two show sponsors Corsair and Western Digital so huge thanks to all of those guys for allowing us to be here and see their products and talk about their products for them imagine them wanting us to be here and do that who knew"}
