00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.120
Linus Tech Tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by ncx.com, your source

00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:11.280
for great technology, selection, and service along with Corsair memory and

00:00:09.599 --> 00:00:14.799
Western Digital. Hey guys, welcome to the Kingston Rapid Fire Technology

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:20.160
Showcase. Not a real thing, but what I'm calling this. What we're going to see

00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:21.920
first is 384 GB of DDR4 RAM working in a

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:25.439
server. Pretty awesome. They didn't let me take the top off completely, but from

00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:28.880
markings that we could find, it is six channel RAM, which is an insane amount.

00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:32.399
When you look in here, it's basically just RAM, which is awesome. It's going

00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:39.360
to be nice that it's also running at 1.4 volts, 1.2 volts, my bad, because any

00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:41.440
amount of power savings in a server configuration where you're in an

00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:45.360
environment where you're probably in a server room with a ton of these things

00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:49.200
is actually going to save a company a very large amount of money because when

00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:52.480
you're when you're multiplying how much power you're saving, it becomes a really

00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:58.480
big deal. Next up, we have something just as or more beastly. This is 24 400

00:00:55.520 --> 00:01:02.879
GB Kingston E100 server grade SSDs in one system running all at the same time

00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:07.040
on three RAID 10s running through LSI controllers and then they have 50 VMs

00:01:04.960 --> 00:01:12.320
running in the background. You would think maybe that they could have more

00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:14.400
VMs and they could but no because GPU

00:01:12.320 --> 00:01:18.240
power it has nothing to do with limiting the speed of the SSDs and we can

00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:22.240
actually see here on the right side that there's quite a bit of performance left

00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:25.759
uh in headroom for the SSDs but not necessarily for something else. And last

00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:30.560
but not least, we have the SSD showcase. So, first off, they're showing a client

00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:32.720
SSD, which is powered by an SF3700 LSI

00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:37.040
Avago controller, which is pretty interesting. But what's more interesting

00:01:34.479 --> 00:01:40.560
is their PCI Express 4X card, the Predator, which is also running the same

00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:44.640
controller. That controller is has a potential of,800 megabytes per second of

00:01:42.880 --> 00:01:49.040
potential throughput. That's pretty interesting. Down the line, we have a 1

00:01:46.720 --> 00:01:53.680
TB SSD prototype, which is going to be more consumer and valueoriented.

00:01:51.759 --> 00:01:56.799
Saying one tabby SSD prototype and consumer and value oriented is a little

00:01:55.520 --> 00:02:00.640
weird, but it's running a Faison controller and I'm pretty excited for that one as well. All right, guys. One

00:01:59.520 --> 00:02:06.399
last thing before we go. I want to give a shout out to Kingston because they do sponsor a ton of esports stuff. We are

00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:09.039
here live at D2LS4 and this is pretty awesome and extremely distracting. The

00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:14.160
screen is right up there, so I'm going to try to not look at it too much while I'm running this video as I'll be able

00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:17.440
to watch afterwards. If you are watching this video, it's not going to be live

00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:21.920
streamed anymore. Look online. There might be an archive somewhere. I'm not actually 100% confirmed about that, but

00:02:20.480 --> 00:02:24.800
yeah, Kingston is a huge sponsor of esports. So, if you are a big fan of

00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:28.160
esports and you're looking for some stuff that Kingston makes, maybe buy

00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:32.080
some Kingston stuff. Thanks for watching our Kingston content. If you want to see

00:02:29.760 --> 00:02:35.920

00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:38.319
you to our sponsors, NCX, WD, and Corsair.
