1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:11,200
Okay, so if you guys think it's crazy that Razer showed up with both a like

2
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:12,200
mockup of the Razer Toaster and an

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:20,080
actual working Razer toaster, if you guys think

4
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:23,119
that's crazy, you are not even ready for

5
00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:27,640
what's going on in here. This box right

6
00:00:23,119 --> 00:00:30,560
here is being seen here at LTX

7
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:35,280
2017 for the first time. That label on the top says prototype inside. To those

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:42,800
of you wondering, no, it is not Project Valerie. It is not AMD Epic,

9
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:45,960
but it is from AMD. You guys, are you

10
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,960
guys ready?

11
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:58,360
Inside this box being unveiled for the first time

12
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:06,600
AMD RX Vega.

13
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:17,240
Inside this box is not only an AMD RX

14
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:20,799
Vega, but a completely

15
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:25,280
oneof-kind unboxing experience that will

16
00:01:20,799 --> 00:01:27,920
only be available in very very limited

17
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:36,400
quantities because to produce it required designers from the Netherlands,

18
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:39,640
UK, Canada, and the US and the cost of

19
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:43,600
building it is extraordinarily

20
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:47,240
high. So to see one of these in person

21
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:50,960
is going to be a very very unusual

22
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,960
experience. This is this is

23
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:59,600
crazy. The sleeve of Horx Vega.

24
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:03,600
Hey, that's mine. I want to do it.

25
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:04,900
Okay. Okay. The cardboard flap of RX

26
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,119
Vega.

27
00:02:07,119 --> 00:02:15,160
bring pixels to life. Oh yeah, later.

28
00:02:10,479 --> 00:02:15,160
Okay, here we go. Whoa.

29
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:21,599
Now, just hold on a minute here. Oh, do I have to leave it there? Okay, so we're

30
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:31,080
going to plug it in. Can I pick it up? Can I hold it? Of course. So,

31
00:02:25,239 --> 00:02:35,040
this is a prototype device that AMD is

32
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:39,160
calling the holo cube.

33
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:43,640
Hol. And it's some kind of holographic

34
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:46,800
display that actually syncs with Radeon

35
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:49,840
software to project certain images if

36
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:52,640
there's like a driver update or like a

37
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:56,800
new game you want to play or if your DVR capture is on.

38
00:02:54,800 --> 00:03:02,540
But is it RGB? No, it is AMD red because it is all

39
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,370
about team red.

40
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,840
team.

41
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:19,760
Wow. I was looking at it from the wrong

42
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:26,080
side. So, you guys were actually seeing it. So, inside the cube is another cube.

43
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:28,720
It's a graphic. Uh we actually have a video that we can play just in case you

44
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:35,519
can't see it. We're going to we're going to leave this out so you guys can see it in person, but I'm going to go ahead and

45
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:38,400
fire that up. So, from the front there's

46
00:03:35,519 --> 00:03:42,599
just this graphic, this uh this rotating cube that seems to be hovering

47
00:03:40,799 --> 00:03:46,560
completely in midair.

48
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:50,239
Unbelievable. Has everyone kind of seen it? Can you see it moving around in

49
00:03:48,319 --> 00:03:53,239
there? How about you guys in the front there?

50
00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:02,640
Pretty cool, eh? But of course, that's

51
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:05,599
not the main announcement today.

52
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:12,280
The main announcement is the unboxing of the card itself. So, first up, we've got

53
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,280
uh

54
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,920
DisplayPort to DVI adapter.

55
00:04:20,959 --> 00:04:26,720
DisplayPort to HDMI adapter.

56
00:04:25,199 --> 00:04:31,570
We actually really could have used one of these last night.

57
00:04:29,479 --> 00:04:36,479
and Emanuel.

58
00:04:36,479 --> 00:04:43,520
And finally, being seen for the first

59
00:04:39,759 --> 00:04:47,400
time here today, the final shroud design

60
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,400
of RX Vega.

61
00:04:53,919 --> 00:05:01,040
There it is. So, this is the limited

62
00:04:56,919 --> 00:05:04,080
edition of RX Vega. It's got a brushed

63
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:07,199
aluminum finish. This is a completely

64
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:09,680
new architecture for AMD. Everything

65
00:05:07,199 --> 00:05:14,160
about it was built from the ground up. It's got a new geometry and pixel

66
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:19,120
engine. It's got hardware accelerated async compute if you guys are into

67
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:24,560
DirectX12 and you're into Vulcan. And it

68
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:27,440
features 8 gigs of HBM2 memory. So, for

69
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:31,919
a consumer card right now to get HBM2 memory, you got to buy a $9,000 graphics

70
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:35,600
card. And I can't tell you what the price of this is going to be, but I can

71
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:40,560
tell you it's going to be a lot less than that.

72
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:46,120
Also, it will have better support for free sync than ever before. And that's

73
00:05:43,919 --> 00:05:52,080
supposed to be kind of a kind of a hint because AMD will be officially

74
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:56,880
announcing many many more details about

75
00:05:52,080 --> 00:06:00,919
RX Vega tomorrow at 7:30 Pacific. 7:30

76
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:04,720
p.m. Pacific. So stay tuned for that. I

77
00:06:00,919 --> 00:06:07,199
promised that this would be unbelievable

78
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:11,680
and that you guys would be absolutely blown away.

79
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:16,630
And we're going to start getting the uh phase two going here because that wasn't

80
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,880
it.

81
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:28,400
It's getting real now because Vega would have been a big deal and Vega

82
00:06:23,919 --> 00:06:32,360
is a big deal. But inside this box is a

83
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,360
DisplayPort cable

84
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:40,360
and a big fat power cable.

85
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:48,840
and an Alienware Area 51

86
00:06:51,440 --> 00:07:00,759
gaming desktop running a 16 core 32

87
00:06:56,639 --> 00:07:00,759
thread Threadripper.

88
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:09,759
And what we're going to do here today is

89
00:07:05,919 --> 00:07:13,520
we're going to show you Doom running on

90
00:07:09,759 --> 00:07:15,599
RX Vega and Threadripper for the first

91
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:21,280
time and

92
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:24,170
and a few lucky audience members will

93
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:26,639
game on it.

94
00:07:26,639 --> 00:07:34,800
Now we got to hook it up. So, everyone keep that level of excitement going for

95
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:39,319
like two minutes. Okay, two minutes. There's still more. Yeah, let's get it

96
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,319
going. AMD,

97
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:47,120
you guys are about to witness some live and in person Linus Tech Tips

98
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:51,680
troubleshooting. So, I'm just going to perform a quick memory swap here.

99
00:07:50,479 --> 00:07:57,199
Okay. Okay. I'm going to try the other RAM. Still beeping. Oh, man. I'm

100
00:07:54,240 --> 00:08:03,380
freaking out here, you guys. It's okay. I'm fine. Right now everything is fine.

101
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:08,089
Putting other memory back in.

102
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:14,520
You guys are going to cut all that out, right?

103
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:22,599
Okay. Okay. We got this. The next thing I get to unveil today,

104
00:08:23,759 --> 00:08:30,639
lightheaded is everybody's favorite

105
00:08:27,319 --> 00:08:34,479
benchmark when they first fire up their

106
00:08:30,639 --> 00:08:39,080
computer with a new processor.

107
00:08:34,479 --> 00:08:39,080
Windows, task manager,

108
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:49,040
16 cores, 32 threads. Threads. Yes, I

109
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:56,560
got special permission from Alienware to be the first person to run Cinebench in

110
00:08:52,279 --> 00:09:00,080
public on Threadripper.

111
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:07,120
Okay, I'm actually going to need an assistant to come in and click it for me

112
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:09,120
cuz I want to hold this up so everyone

113
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:12,880
can see it. Uh,

114
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:19,920
actually, maybe someone who's already on the stage. over here. Okay. Yeah. Can

115
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:24,480
you click run? Click run. 16 threads.

116
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:27,279
16 cores. CPU. CPU. CPU. Yeah. 16 cores.

117
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:33,920
32 threads. That's how fast it goes.

118
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:42,920
Look at it fly. It might already be done.

119
00:09:39,519 --> 00:09:42,920
It's done.

120
00:09:43,839 --> 00:09:52,240
score. 2866.

121
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:58,320
Okay. This is exhausting.

122
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:02,959
I think I'm allowed to tell you base clock. Well, it's running at like 2.6

123
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:07,279
right now, but it's it's it's it's shifting a lot. There will be more

124
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:12,320
details on Threadripper. I need Steam to launch. I really need it to launch

125
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,160
right now.

126
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:19,360
We're just going to reboot it. We're We're going to show off the speedy

127
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:21,920
reboot times of the Area 51.

128
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:25,760
You better not update. So, I'm going to use this opportunity.

129
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:31,480
Have some water, dude. You're exhausted. Have some water. I'm dying. I'm going to

130
00:10:27,839 --> 00:10:31,480
use this opportunity.

131
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:50,920
to announce one more thing. AMD is giving away to two lucky

132
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:53,120
people, one here and one

133
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:57,920
participating at the link in the video description

134
00:10:54,519 --> 00:11:01,320
online. They are giving away two RX Vega

135
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,320
graphics cards.

136
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:11,480
In the meantime, huge shout out to AMD

137
00:11:06,959 --> 00:11:14,720

There's going to be a code LTX 2017, I

144
00:11:35,839 --> 00:11:42,560
think, or something. LTX. Yeah, whatever. Colton's not screaming, so

145
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:46,720
maybe that's it. Either way, it'll be linked down there. Thanks for watching,

146
