Thank you to AMD for sponsoring our CES 2017 content. Check out their new Ryzen

00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:10.800
processor in the link in the description down below. Back at Computex 2016, InWin

00:00:08.639 --> 00:00:15.040
held this epic competition between modders from all around the world to see

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:19.920
who could make the best mod on one of their platforms. Our friends at BS Mods

00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:23.600
were there, Bob and Rod, and they had a really interesting submission. I made a

00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:27.279
video about it. You guys voted, and they are one of the winners to have their mod

00:00:25.439 --> 00:00:31.679
turned into an actual production purchasable case. When I walked up to

00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:34.320
the booth at InWin, I seriously thought it was the modded version from before. I

00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:41.079
was like, "Oh, cool. They brought the one that they made at Compyex to the show floor at CES." I was wrong. That is

00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:47.039
the final product. That is a purchasable, expensive limited edition

00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:48.879
product that looks absolutely legit.

00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:52.800
Upon closer inspection, while staying true to the original build, they have

00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:56.800
done some upgrades. The sword itself does look a little bit better. And on

00:00:54.800 --> 00:01:00.320
the pommel, there's this really awesome power button that feels really nice. And

00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:05.360
then along the side of the blade, there's your IO. So, they have two USB

00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:07.680
3, two USB 2, and audio headers. All of

00:01:05.360 --> 00:01:12.400
those scallops are on 3 mm thick aluminum panels, which is super legit.

00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:18.479
And the shield on the right side of the case has an LED backlight behind it. The

00:01:15.520 --> 00:01:22.479
giant rivets all throughout the case are all real. They actually sourced rivets

00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:27.680
that big specifically for this build, which is not something Inwind normally

00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:29.759
uses at all. for the cross on the front,

00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:33.520
that mesh pattern that goes behind it. They had to find the original material

00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:37.040
that they actually used for the first mod, and buy it in bulk, which was

00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:40.960
actually a complicated process. But either way, it looks great and it

00:01:39.119 --> 00:01:44.560
probably should considering it costs so much that if you actually care how much

00:01:42.479 --> 00:01:47.600
it costs, you probably shouldn't buy it. I actually don't know right off the top

00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:51.600
of my head. That wasn't really a variable that mattered. But to make sure

00:01:49.360 --> 00:01:55.280
that you actually know that it is fully legit through and through, there's a

00:01:53.119 --> 00:01:59.280
signed panel on the lefthand side from Bob and Rod themselves, which is

00:01:57.600 --> 00:02:04.640
awesome. This build that you can see right now weighs 65 lb without the water

00:02:03.119 --> 00:02:07.680
in it. So, it actually weighs a little bit more than that. And when they

00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:11.520
display it, they take two people to pick it up. All of this was built on an

00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:14.959
In-Win 509 frame. So, if you think you can do a mod that's cool as well, you

00:02:13.440 --> 00:02:18.640
can pick that up. And if you're thinking of other things, maybe try to give them

00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:21.360
a name. atbsmods on Twitter. They're trying to figure out a name for this.

00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:25.040
One that I thought of was sword and board, which is kind of like the knight

00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:28.480
thing, but it's not a board for the shield. It's a metal thing. So maybe you

00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:32.400
can think of something more creative than I did. And speaking of creativity,

00:02:30.480 --> 00:02:37.519
thanks again to AMD for sponsoring our CES 2017 content. Their Radeon Vega GPU

00:02:35.760 --> 00:02:41.760
will introduce a new memory architecture that sports high bandwidth cache. You

00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:47.680
can learn more about Vega by visiting ve.ga, GA clever URL or visiting after

00:02:45.519 --> 00:02:50.480
the uprising on this YouTube link right up here.
