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

2
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:11,040
trusted gaming gear partner is Corsair Vengeance and our trusted retail partner

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:11,040
is

4
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:21,640
nc.com we're here in the be quiet! Booth here at computex 2013 where we've got

5
00:00:20,199 --> 00:00:26,359
some products to no I'm just kidding I'll talk normally guys so we're here in the be quiet! Booth where we've got some

6
00:00:24,599 --> 00:00:30,400
new products to show off this one right here is the be quiet! pure power so it's

7
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:33,600
not really modular you know it's still got a really nice look to it so you got

8
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:38,280
a be quiet! fan in there of course these are legendary fans very very as you may

9
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,640
or may not have guessed extremely noisy no just kidding they're quiet okay so

10
00:00:40,039 --> 00:00:45,239
there's that going for it non- modular power supply but what I like about this

11
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:49,360
one is it's meant to compete with something like a builder series from

12
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:54,079
Corsair in terms of price and capacities available and check this out be quiet!

13
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:58,160
actually puts a reasonable number of connectors on the thing it's a 600 W

14
00:00:56,239 --> 00:01:03,680
power supply that we have right here and look at that four PCI S6 plus two pin

15
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:07,640
connectors very very nice the problem with what most manufacturers are doing

16
00:01:05,439 --> 00:01:11,720
these days is they're forgetting that we're not dealing with Pentium D anymore

17
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:16,080
with fourth generation core series processors code name Haswell as we like

18
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:20,119
to call them the power consumption is actually so low unless you're

19
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:26,320
overclocking to an insane amount that you could easily run two graphics cards

20
00:01:22,479 --> 00:01:28,439
like 6600 TI or GTX 660 Ti or something

21
00:01:26,320 --> 00:01:32,479
along those lines with a fourth generation processor and you're not

22
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:36,520
going to exceed 600 watts so it's great to see a power supply that actually has

23
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:39,759
the right number of connectors for the kind of system you can build with it

24
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:44,399
these two things over here aren't really new but this one is this is the power

25
00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:48,640
zone so you can tell from The Styling this is going to be more for like your

26
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:52,799
uh your show rig so you got some cool textures on the side there you've got

27
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:59,039
some cool sort of grills on the back there and then you've got aha that's a

28
00:01:55,240 --> 00:02:00,840
silent Wings 3 Fan H right now silent

29
00:01:59,039 --> 00:02:04,640
Wings 2 are the fans that are out there on the market as Standalone this is a

30
00:02:02,759 --> 00:02:08,160
single rail power supply and check this out it's 80 plus bronze so it comes in

31
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:12,520
at a pretty attractive price point but you've still got support for a bunch of

32
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:17,080
really cool stuff like a fully modular interface right here as well as you see

33
00:02:14,519 --> 00:02:21,400
those fans ports you have adapters that are included with the power supply that

34
00:02:18,599 --> 00:02:25,879
allow your PSU to actually control your case fans as well so your power supply

35
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:31,480
not only keeps itself quiet but it also keeps the rest of your system more quiet

36
00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:35,360
we going to party like it's 13 12 tonight we got oh wait no this is oh

37
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:41,200
crap no I got this wrong this isn't body rock okay this is the Shadow Rock to

38
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,760
from be quiet! so this is a pretty big

39
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:46,280
departure from what we've seen in the past from them for air coolers and one

40
00:02:44,959 --> 00:02:49,599
of the things that you guys are going to like about it in terms of departure from

41
00:02:48,239 --> 00:02:55,920
the past is that this is going to be priced at 40 bucks us so it's a large

42
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:57,519
quad thick heat pipe Tower cooler that's

43
00:02:55,920 --> 00:03:02,120
got a nice plate on the top so it doesn't look sort of ridiculous and it's

44
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:06,680
also got a ton of fan mounting options so on every corner you've got room for

45
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:11,360
these fan Clips to go either way so you never have to worry about oh well you

46
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:15,959
know I had to orient my uh my CPU Cooler this way so I wasn't able to have like

47
00:03:13,640 --> 00:03:20,200
you know my fan blowing towards wherever no you have the option to put it

48
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:22,360
wherever you want and again the pricing

49
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:27,680
is going to be very very attractive this one right here is intriguing to me this

50
00:03:24,879 --> 00:03:31,640
is the Shadow Rock Slim So what this does is it has okay so it has smaller

51
00:03:29,879 --> 00:03:36,080
heat pipes but get this this is Taiwanese made so it's manufactured in

52
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:39,799
Taiwan it uses higher quality heat pipes this is actually the same OEM that

53
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:43,080
builds the heat pipes for MacBook Pro so they're very high quality heat pipes

54
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:48,640
extremely high quality materials get the same performance as Shadow Rock 2 except

55
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:53,280
that because it's so slim so they're using a custom 20 mm design for the fan

56
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:58,040
so that it is lower profile you can actually install this in for example x79

57
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:03,840
platforms where you have high-profile dims on either side or even on something

58
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,840
like a Z87 platform where you want the fan and you want your high-profile dims

59
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:10,879
and you don't want to have any interference whatsoever this one is

60
00:04:09,079 --> 00:04:14,480
incredibly intriguing to me they've also expanded the fan Mountain Clips on

61
00:04:12,879 --> 00:04:19,120
something like the dark Rock 2 it was a little bit difficult you couldn't really Mount two fans unless you would really

62
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:22,560
did some modding but with this one they've left the gaps open so you could

63
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:26,520
even install a couple of different fans on it if you wanted thanks for checking

64
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:30,560
