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

00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:21.640
nc.com we're here in the be quiet! Booth here at computex 2013 where we've got

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

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

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

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

00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:41.640
or may not have guessed extremely noisy no just kidding they're quiet okay so

00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:45.239
there's that going for it non- modular power supply but what I like about this

00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:49.360
one is it's meant to compete with something like a builder series from

00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:54.079
Corsair in terms of price and capacities available and check this out be quiet!

00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:58.160
actually puts a reasonable number of connectors on the thing it's a 600 W

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

00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:07.640
connectors very very nice the problem with what most manufacturers are doing

00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:11.720
these days is they're forgetting that we're not dealing with Pentium D anymore

00:01:10.080 --> 00:01:16.080
with fourth generation core series processors code name Haswell as we like

00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:20.119
to call them the power consumption is actually so low unless you're

00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:26.320
overclocking to an insane amount that you could easily run two graphics cards

00:01:22.479 --> 00:01:28.439
like 6600 TI or GTX 660 Ti or something

00:01:26.320 --> 00:01:32.479
along those lines with a fourth generation processor and you're not

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

00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:39.759
the right number of connectors for the kind of system you can build with it

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

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

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

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

00:01:55.240 --> 00:02:00.840
silent Wings 3 Fan H right now silent

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

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

00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:12.520
at a pretty attractive price point but you've still got support for a bunch of

00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:17.080
really cool stuff like a fully modular interface right here as well as you see

00:02:14.519 --> 00:02:21.400
those fans ports you have adapters that are included with the power supply that

00:02:18.599 --> 00:02:25.879
allow your PSU to actually control your case fans as well so your power supply

00:02:23.160 --> 00:02:31.480
not only keeps itself quiet but it also keeps the rest of your system more quiet

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

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

00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:42.760
from be quiet! so this is a pretty big

00:02:41.200 --> 00:02:46.280
departure from what we've seen in the past from them for air coolers and one

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

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

00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:57.519
quad thick heat pipe Tower cooler that's

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

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

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

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

00:03:13.640 --> 00:03:20.200
you know my fan blowing towards wherever no you have the option to put it

00:03:17.200 --> 00:03:22.360
wherever you want and again the pricing

00:03:20.200 --> 00:03:27.680
is going to be very very attractive this one right here is intriguing to me this

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

00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:36.080
heat pipes but get this this is Taiwanese made so it's manufactured in

00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:39.799
Taiwan it uses higher quality heat pipes this is actually the same OEM that

00:03:37.760 --> 00:03:43.080
builds the heat pipes for MacBook Pro so they're very high quality heat pipes

00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:48.640
extremely high quality materials get the same performance as Shadow Rock 2 except

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

00:03:51.200 --> 00:03:58.040
so that it is lower profile you can actually install this in for example x79

00:03:56.360 --> 00:04:03.840
platforms where you have high-profile dims on either side or even on something

00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:06.840
like a Z87 platform where you want the fan and you want your high-profile dims

00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.879
and you don't want to have any interference whatsoever this one is

00:04:09.079 --> 00:04:14.480
incredibly intriguing to me they've also expanded the fan Mountain Clips on

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

00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:22.560
did some modding but with this one they've left the gaps open so you could

00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:26.520
even install a couple of different fans on it if you wanted thanks for checking

00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:30.560
