00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:07.560
our computex coverage here in 2017 is brought to you by the Corsair 1 gaming

00:00:04.520 --> 00:00:09.559
PC and Synergy check them out at the

00:00:07.560 --> 00:00:13.960
link in the video description you guys aren't going to believe this we are in

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

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

00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:27.840
know what this says but like it probably says like top secret or something

00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:36.680
like that because inside here we have ASUS's new fled ship AMD motherboard one

00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:39.520
that is for a socket that quite frankly

00:00:36.680 --> 00:00:45.320
is probably still quite a ways out from being something you can actually buy

00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:46.680
this right here is the Zenith extreme

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

00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:57.520
so I can get all the RGB lighting illuminated this is going to be for

00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:59.680
AMD's upcoming well rumored thread

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:06.799
Ripper product so that's going to be again and rumored

00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:09.840
124 or 16 core CPUs in a very high-end

00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:12.960
Enthusiast SL workstation type platform

00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:15.200
and this board has all kinds of features

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

00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:26.759
we've got their brand new socket TR4 this is an LGA socket the first time

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

00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:35.079
consumer side of things it has 4,094

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:37.759
pins and you need a freaking screwdriver

00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:42.360
to open up the cover and when we do that we see why this thing looks

00:01:39.640 --> 00:01:46.000
extraordinarily fragile and has a configuration that I've never really

00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:50.640
seen before it almost looks like it's two CPUs being installed in a single

00:01:48.880 --> 00:01:55.799
socket which when you think about the fact that these things are going to have

00:01:51.960 --> 00:01:58.439
64 PCI Express Lanes hm might give you

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

00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:09.039
Zen architecture CPU here looking pretty bananas it supports quad Channel memory

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

00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:17.239
calling a dim. two slot now we've seen

00:02:13.920 --> 00:02:20.239
m.2 ssds before in fact it's got one

00:02:17.239 --> 00:02:22.280
under the chipset cooler right down here

00:02:20.239 --> 00:02:26.560
but this is the new way so ASUS is building custom memory module looking

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

00:02:29.920 --> 00:02:36.200
ope thing or anything like that but you can put two on here for better cooling

00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:42.760
without having your SSD sticking out of the middle of the board it's running an

00:02:39.440 --> 00:02:45.640
x399 chipset another obvious move from

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

00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:56.959
going all the way back to the Athlon XP performance rating days apparently it's

00:02:52.519 --> 00:02:59.120
got two 8 Pin power connectors which

00:02:56.959 --> 00:03:04.319
again adds uh some more credibility to my theory about it basically being two

00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:08.200
CPUs in there and it's got this is crazy

00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:10.640
we've got 802.11 a Wi-Fi so that's like

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

00:03:12.519 --> 00:03:19.799
card it's got freaking lights to tell you which uh audio port you're plugging

00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:21.840
in from the back and it's SLI certified

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

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

00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:36.319
confirm or deny but thing is going to probably cost in the $599 US range plus

00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:43.400
the fact that you're going to be spending like a th000 bucks plus on a

00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:46.400
CPU to go in it but at least hey you get

00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:47.920
an RGB back plate right so thanks for

00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:53.159
watching guys our computex coverage is brought to you by the Corsair 1 the 12 L

00:03:50.480 --> 00:03:56.239
gaming PC that looks great and runs quiet we've actually reviewed it before

00:03:54.760 --> 00:04:02.000

00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:11.480
so check them out and save 25% on Synergy at the link in the video

00:04:09.640 --> 00:04:14.879
description don't miss any of our computex coverage by getting subscribed

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
