1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:07,560
our computex coverage here in 2017 is brought to you by the Corsair 1 gaming

2
00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:09,559
PC and Synergy check them out at the

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:13,960
link in the video description you guys aren't going to believe this we are in

4
00:00:11,519 --> 00:00:19,960
the back room we are getting an early Hands-On to give you some idea how fresh

5
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:23,320
this product is this is not even a real box for it look it's like I don't even

6
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:27,840
know what this says but like it probably says like top secret or something

7
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:36,680
like that because inside here we have ASUS's new fled ship AMD motherboard one

8
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:39,520
that is for a socket that quite frankly

9
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:45,320
is probably still quite a ways out from being something you can actually buy

10
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:46,680
this right here is the Zenith extreme

11
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:52,719
you'll have to give me a minute I've got my uh 24 pin connector all ready to go

12
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:57,520
so I can get all the RGB lighting illuminated this is going to be for

13
00:00:54,399 --> 00:00:59,680
AMD's upcoming well rumored thread

14
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:06,799
Ripper product so that's going to be again and rumored

15
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:09,840
124 or 16 core CPUs in a very high-end

16
00:01:06,799 --> 00:01:12,960
Enthusiast SL workstation type platform

17
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:15,200
and this board has all kinds of features

18
00:01:12,960 --> 00:01:20,479
some of which we've seen before and some of which we haven't so at its heart

19
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:26,759
we've got their brand new socket TR4 this is an LGA socket the first time

20
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:32,000
for AMD on the consumer I mean if you want to call it consumer but on the

21
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:35,079
consumer side of things it has 4,094

22
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:37,759
pins and you need a freaking screwdriver

23
00:01:35,079 --> 00:01:42,360
to open up the cover and when we do that we see why this thing looks

24
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:46,000
extraordinarily fragile and has a configuration that I've never really

25
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:50,640
seen before it almost looks like it's two CPUs being installed in a single

26
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:55,799
socket which when you think about the fact that these things are going to have

27
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:58,439
64 PCI Express Lanes hm might give you

28
00:01:55,799 --> 00:02:03,880
some hints as to how exactly it is that AMD is building up this sort of modular

29
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:09,039
Zen architecture CPU here looking pretty bananas it supports quad Channel memory

30
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:13,920
and oh hold on a minute what the actual hell is that this is what ASUS is

31
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:17,239
calling a dim. two slot now we've seen

32
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:20,239
m.2 ssds before in fact it's got one

33
00:02:17,239 --> 00:02:22,280
under the chipset cooler right down here

34
00:02:20,239 --> 00:02:26,560
but this is the new way so ASUS is building custom memory module looking

35
00:02:24,959 --> 00:02:31,800
things they're still running off PCI Express so it's not like a a memory SSD

36
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:36,200
ope thing or anything like that but you can put two on here for better cooling

37
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:42,760
without having your SSD sticking out of the middle of the board it's running an

38
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:45,640
x399 chipset another obvious move from

39
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:50,040
AMD to make their board sound kind of like the Intel one but like better we're

40
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:56,959
going all the way back to the Athlon XP performance rating days apparently it's

41
00:02:52,519 --> 00:02:59,120
got two 8 Pin power connectors which

42
00:02:56,959 --> 00:03:04,319
again adds uh some more credibility to my theory about it basically being two

43
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:08,200
CPUs in there and it's got this is crazy

44
00:03:04,319 --> 00:03:10,640
we've got 802.11 a Wi-Fi so that's like

45
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:14,480
multi- gigabit Wi-Fi on this thing it's going to come with a 10 gbit network

46
00:03:12,519 --> 00:03:19,799
card it's got freaking lights to tell you which uh audio port you're plugging

47
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:21,840
in from the back and it's SLI certified

48
00:03:19,799 --> 00:03:26,200
it's I mean what else can we say about this other than that you're going to

49
00:03:23,519 --> 00:03:30,439
have to sell your car if you want to own one I'm estimating no one here will

50
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:36,319
confirm or deny but thing is going to probably cost in the $599 US range plus

51
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:43,400
the fact that you're going to be spending like a th000 bucks plus on a

52
00:03:39,599 --> 00:03:46,400
CPU to go in it but at least hey you get

53
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,920
an RGB back plate right so thanks for

54
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:53,159
watching guys our computex coverage is brought to you by the Corsair 1 the 12 L

55
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:56,239
gaming PC that looks great and runs quiet we've actually reviewed it before

56
00:03:54,760 --> 00:04:02,000
so we don't have to tell you guys how great it is and buy Synergy which allows

57
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:04,040
you to use multiple PCS be they PC Mac

58
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:08,120
Linux whatever you want with a single keyboard and mouse absolutely seamlessly

59
00:04:06,319 --> 00:04:11,480
so check them out and save 25% on Synergy at the link in the video

60
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:14,879
description don't miss any of our computex coverage by getting subscribed

61
00:04:12,959 --> 00:04:21,040
and I'll see you guys again at the next like dank ass back room Early Access

62
