00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:06.879
we've all been there you've finally saved up the money to buy a new Ballin

00:00:03.959 --> 00:00:11.880
gaming monitor but how do you decide do I go high resolution a little bit lower

00:00:09.639 --> 00:00:15.559
refresh rate do I go really high refresh rate but lower resolution well it

00:00:13.719 --> 00:00:23.080
doesn't matter anymore azrock who sponsored this video to check out their

00:00:17.279 --> 00:00:25.960
Phantom gaming pgo 32 UF s2b 32in 4K 240

00:00:23.080 --> 00:00:34.800
HZ OLED gaming monitor it's no longer a problem because despite being all that

00:00:29.560 --> 00:00:37.760
this is also a 1080p 480 HZ 32-in OLED

00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:42.680
gaming monitor it's dual mode it does both this is the new avatar game it is

00:00:40.440 --> 00:00:48.520
absolutely stunning running on this wonderful ASRock taichi computer we've

00:00:44.680 --> 00:00:51.239
got a 7950 X x670 taichi Carrera and a

00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:56.320
7900 XTX taichi but you don't always play games like this sometimes your game

00:00:54.559 --> 00:01:00.719
is a little less beautiful and it has a lot more valves in it and in those ones

00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:03.519
you need High refresh rates I would show you but I don't actually

00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:09.640
have that game installed and the internet's really here but for Illustrated purposes let's switch it so

00:01:07.080 --> 00:01:12.960
the buttons are backwards Up Is Down Down is up right is left left is right

00:01:11.520 --> 00:01:17.520
it's going to look so much better after I promise okay it doesn't actually look

00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:24.320
that different but look our F our FPS doubled like magic this was 4K before I

00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:26.240
promise you 480 HZ woo look at how

00:01:24.320 --> 00:01:33.479
smooth all right we figured out the Pinnacle of Esports game CS 1.6 it it

00:01:29.439 --> 00:01:35.560
might not be CS2 it's point4 behind that

00:01:33.479 --> 00:01:40.680
but we can at least see what an Esports game which is something you might

00:01:36.880 --> 00:01:43.320
actually want 480 HZ looks like super

00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:47.040
clear hello oh God I'm by myself what imagine there's other people I am

00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:52.159
fragging them so hard because I have way more hurts than them specs Wise It's

00:01:49.320 --> 00:01:58.280
vesa HDR true black 400 certified it's got a Max brightness in HDR mode of 1300

00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:59.640
nits Peak for iio we've got two HDMI 2.1

00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:03.039
ports that's always a nice touch sometimes they end up with an HDMI 2.1

00:02:01.479 --> 00:02:08.840
for one port and then 2.0 on the other this one 2.1 on both it's also going to

00:02:05.960 --> 00:02:12.680
have two DisplayPort 1.4s right now this engineering sample only has the one

00:02:11.160 --> 00:02:19.000
but the final production ones will have two we've got a type-c port that does DP

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:22.440
alt mode and 65 W PD charging a USB type

00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:24.360
a hub and audio output on top of that

00:02:22.440 --> 00:02:28.200
they also include a Wi-Fi antenna hookup on the monitor so if you're somebody

00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:31.840
that uses Wi-Fi uh having it on your monitor can actually be a really good

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:35.360
way to get better signal cuz it's Up and Away instead of like tucked away at the

00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:38.840
back of your computer a nice touch if you happen to need to use it oh look at

00:02:37.200 --> 00:02:43.000
that there's the Wi-Fi it right there it's got a fairly good range of motion

00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:46.599
tilting up and down moving up and down and swiveling left to right it doesn't

00:02:45.640 --> 00:02:51.680
pivot though and of course a 100x 100 vase

00:02:49.640 --> 00:02:55.920
amount which is always a nice touch waa it's got RGB and a Kensington lock which

00:02:53.720 --> 00:02:59.599
is always nice I also like it's got the nipple that's the best way to have a

00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:02.959
monitor thing I hate when they just have a bajillion buttons this is so much

00:03:01.239 --> 00:03:06.840
better let's try smooth frog which is like a Clarity demo obviously this

00:03:04.760 --> 00:03:10.200
doesn't necessarily translate the best over camera but Dennis tried to do some

00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:15.560
Pursuit cvas but it looks very clear I don't really see any

00:03:13.959 --> 00:03:20.120
sort of ghosting in the colors or anything like that it looks pretty good

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:23.360
now I would love to play an HDR video but unfortunately this engineering

00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:28.239
sample doesn't yet have the HDR functionality built in so if we go to

00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:29.959
enable HDR it will be like no HDR in the

00:03:28.239 --> 00:03:34.640
future obviously if you buy one it's going to have HDR so don't stress about

00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:39.239
that and if you are planning on watching HDR content or video editing or anything

00:03:36.760 --> 00:03:43.000
like that it has coverage of 98.5% of the DCI P3 color space which is

00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:48.319
excellent let's show you the Dual mode one more time we were in 1080P mode for

00:03:45.239 --> 00:03:50.560
all of that let's go back to 4K just did

00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:54.640
it in the onscreen menu there couple seconds and bam we're at 4K 240 it still

00:03:52.920 --> 00:04:00.640
looks really smooth don't get me wrong 4K 240 is really good but it's not only

00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:04.480
monitors they have a full lineup of new motherboards for both the latest Intel

00:04:02.920 --> 00:04:08.599
and AMD platforms that are launching like look at this Intel taichi Aqua it

00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:13.040
has 10 USBC ports and no taipe what kind of Madness is this or x870 E taichi if

00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:16.919
you're looking for those latest AMD chips but I also heard there's an azrock

00:04:15.079 --> 00:04:21.560
motherboard in a very interesting system over here hey guys been a while I think

00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:24.960
this is actually my premiere on the ShortCircuit Channel although I'm not

00:04:23.080 --> 00:04:29.199
100% sure Jake pulled me out of retirement to check out this system I

00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:34.039
don't think it particularly has a name yet this is a a prototype it's not ready

00:04:31.080 --> 00:04:38.120
for for Showtime yet but first let's go over the hardware inside cuz that'll

00:04:35.840 --> 00:04:43.919
explain a few things later on about why they chose some design decisions that

00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:47.440
they have inside of it is a Zeon W9 3495

00:04:43.919 --> 00:04:51.360
x 2 96 gig sticks of Kingston ddr5

00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:55.560
memory a 2 TB Samsung SSD dual Radeon RX

00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:57.280
7800 XT gpus a thermal 1650 W power

00:04:55.560 --> 00:05:03.880
supply and of course we're here at azrock thank you azrock for bringing us

00:04:58.880 --> 00:05:06.160
to the show this year a azrock w790 WS

00:05:03.880 --> 00:05:09.800
now the immersion liquid cooling the thing that I was really brought here for

00:05:07.919 --> 00:05:14.520
what's going on with that this is not mineral oil this is significantly more

00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:18.919
expensive and better one of the notes that you'll actually see on the card is

00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:23.039
that they say compatible with most material that's a bit of an immediate

00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:27.360
issue with mineral oil because it eats things like rubbers and and other stuff

00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:31.680
like that this doesn't have that problem one potential problem if you wanted to

00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:35.240
use this self however is that just this amount of liquid that's in the case

00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:42.360
right now would cost you somewhere between 2,000 and $2500

00:05:38.880 --> 00:05:44.880
us W it makes sense when if you go back

00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:50.479
to that parts list just that CPU the Zeon W9 3495 X that's on that ASRock

00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:54.000
motherboard is going to cost probably more than your entire system that you

00:05:52.039 --> 00:05:57.840
have at home so you're probably going to want to cool it with something pretty

00:05:55.800 --> 00:06:02.199
good now again this is a a test a prototype a proof of concept this is

00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:06.400
this isn't final version most plural carbon immersion systems they're

00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:10.120
actually sealed this one has open ventilation on the top and I've I've

00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:15.039
heard tell that they're doing some experimental things trying to work on

00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:18.080
that but uh this system here has had

00:06:15.039 --> 00:06:20.080
about a TENS width of fluid evaporated

00:06:18.080 --> 00:06:23.720
from it in a week and when the fluid costs this much you don't want that to

00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:26.680
happen but that isn't actually normally a huge problem with these types of

00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:31.479
systems and I'm sure they can solve it because most of them are actually

00:06:28.759 --> 00:06:35.919
completely sealed so that there is no loss from evaporation everything in the

00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:40.639
system that is being touched by the oil is being cooled fural carbon has very

00:06:38.599 --> 00:06:44.479
high thermal conductivity and can pull that out to this stack of Radiators

00:06:42.840 --> 00:06:49.360
that's in the back and those radiators can cool down the oil cycle it back in

00:06:47.039 --> 00:06:53.000
there's no real recycle time as far as my understanding goes if you have it

00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:56.919
nicely sealed your levels aren't going down you can leave it in here basically

00:06:54.960 --> 00:07:00.800
forever and it will keep doing its job which is very nice now will you see me

00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:05.000
using this per cural carbon fluid in a personal rig update sometime soon no

00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:08.840
probably not it's a little expensive for my taste but I think it's cool that I

00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:13.919
got to see one in person I haven't done that before usually they're big 42u

00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:17.479
server racks completely sealed and data centers and I don't know get to see that

00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:21.360
fun stuff and I like that they're putting it in a nice attractive form

00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:24.960
factor a nice attractive package speaking of which you can find one of

00:07:23.080 --> 00:07:28.120
those in the link down below from azrock thank you azrock for bringing us to the

00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:33.400
show this year like comment subscribe all that fun stuff I don't know how to

00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:33.400
out videos anymore see you later
