WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.759
it's been a couple months since we built a PC here on ShortCircuit so when ASUS

00:00:04.080 --> 00:00:09.780
and Intel reached out about sponsoring a video showing off ASUS's new line of

00:00:07.740 --> 00:00:14.340
tough gaming products along with Intel processors we thought what better way to

00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:18.060
fix that than by building a PC with it we've got a full setup of gear here

00:00:16.260 --> 00:00:21.779
there's some over here there's some over here there's some behind the camera that

00:00:20.039 --> 00:00:25.859
we're going to get in here shortly and yeah we're going to build a PC and it's

00:00:23.820 --> 00:00:29.939
all going to start with a motherboard as usual of course the most beautiful

00:00:28.019 --> 00:00:34.760
motherboard box we have here I'm sorry ASUS love you guys but I'm going to call

00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:40.800
you out for for giving us a plain box for a sponsored motherboard and part

00:00:38.700 --> 00:00:44.700
unboxing this is kind of weird but I assure you what's inside is much cooler

00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:50.280
than the Box specifically this motherboard is the tough gaming z790

00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:52.260
plus Wi-Fi D4 the D4 meaning that this

00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:55.739
board uses ddr4 which is a great way to keep the cost down on a new build like

00:00:53.940 --> 00:00:59.579
this and it kind of goes hand in hand with the tier of parts so tough for ASUS

00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:04.140
is kind of like their more mainstream affordable line there's of course Rog

00:01:01.980 --> 00:01:09.180
which is usually a good bit more expensive but these are kind of designed

00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:11.400
to give you all of the performance all

00:01:09.180 --> 00:01:16.500
of the functionality you need without being too crazy too expensive too many

00:01:14.100 --> 00:01:20.820
like fancy knickknacks you don't really need I mean there's a good bit of USB

00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:27.420
here we've got 20 gig we got 10 gig type c 2.5 gig Lan which is great Wi-Fi 6 on

00:01:24.360 --> 00:01:29.280
an Rog board you might see Wi-Fi 6E but

00:01:27.420 --> 00:01:32.280
Wi-Fi 6 is still super fast there is also display outputs in case you're

00:01:30.479 --> 00:01:37.079
building a system and just using the integrated GPU other than that the i o

00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:43.560
that's pretty much it on the board itself oh wow this board's got PCIe Gen

00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:45.780
5 damn boy got a Gen 5 by 16 slot at the

00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:50.040
top for a GPU we've got a one by slot here another one by another four and

00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:54.180
then this one looks like it's a 16 but is actually electrically a four there's

00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:58.259
no CMOS battery in this motherboard we found the only CMOS battery in the bin

00:01:55.979 --> 00:02:01.259
is Sunbeam brand and I don't know how old it is or if it works so hopefully it

00:01:59.759 --> 00:02:05.700
does if it doesn't post that's going to be the first place I look

00:02:03.060 --> 00:02:09.660
what else we got on here uh there's USB 3.2 front panel header which is a nice

00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:13.080
inclusion man back in the day a couple years ago you would have to buy a five

00:02:11.700 --> 00:02:18.540
six seven hundred dollar motherboard to get that and this is not going to be anywhere near that in terms of price

00:02:15.660 --> 00:02:23.340
which is great what else we got m.2s how many m.2's they're three m.2s on this

00:02:20.580 --> 00:02:27.959
board we yeah wow three m.2s look at that

00:02:24.180 --> 00:02:29.879
what Holy balls there's four m.2 slots

00:02:27.959 --> 00:02:33.780
on this board yeah on top of there being a lot of m.2 slots I mean look at this

00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:39.540
they all have the easy latch everybody hates m.2 screws it's like a universal

00:02:36.420 --> 00:02:42.480
thing this one doesn't have any

00:02:39.540 --> 00:02:46.319
very good it also just looks nice I mean this is It's a 275 dollar board right

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:51.300
now I mean you could you could tell me this is like a three four hundred dollar motherboard and I believe you one thing

00:02:49.500 --> 00:02:56.580
I forgot to mention about that Gen 5 slot look

00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:57.840
button release thank you also it's got

00:02:56.580 --> 00:03:00.660
the metal reinforcement which I think they call Safe slot yeah they call it

00:02:59.640 --> 00:03:05.940
safe slot it's just kind of a reinforcement especially if you look at how big graphics cards are getting have

00:03:03.900 --> 00:03:10.680
you seen those 40 90s they're like this big you don't want that just resting on

00:03:08.519 --> 00:03:16.319
a plastic slot this is going to be a lot stronger I guess let's put a CPU in it

00:03:12.780 --> 00:03:17.940
of course this is LGA 1700 z790 Intel

00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:23.159
which means you're gonna be using a 13th gen chip like this 13600k try to make

00:03:21.060 --> 00:03:27.840
this build a little more normal a little more mainstream the 13600k is a very

00:03:25.440 --> 00:03:31.200
capable chip even despite it being a bit mainstream like I mentioned before this

00:03:29.519 --> 00:03:37.800
is a D4 board so we're going to be using ddr4 this is some 3200 Mega transfer per

00:03:34.739 --> 00:03:39.720
second cl-16 ddr4 16 gig sticks maybe

00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:42.180
not the fastest RAM you could put in this board by any stretch of the

00:03:41.040 --> 00:03:48.060
imagination but should be fine what else we got here

00:03:44.940 --> 00:03:49.620
fans wow tough gaming fans three pack

00:03:48.060 --> 00:03:53.220
okay did you know you can get this at ltgstore.com it's the Jerry rig

00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:57.420
everything knife okay got some cables what is this oh

00:03:55.620 --> 00:04:01.379
it's like a little controller all right the Hub worth up to four fans to control

00:03:59.640 --> 00:04:04.680
their RGB you can use this little three pin guy with the little included adapter

00:04:03.180 --> 00:04:07.560
to plug it into your motherboard's addressable RGB control what you're

00:04:06.239 --> 00:04:13.200
going to want to do I think this is mostly just here a as a splitter so you

00:04:10.920 --> 00:04:16.979
can plug three of them in and B if your motherboard doesn't have an addressable

00:04:15.180 --> 00:04:22.260
RGB header you can get some extra like manual control here oh they also include

00:04:19.500 --> 00:04:27.479
a fan splitter nice so for the fan power itself you just have to plug you know

00:04:25.139 --> 00:04:31.680
one guy in there and boom you can plug your three fans into that nice touch

00:04:29.340 --> 00:04:37.259
because wiring three individual fans kind of annoying hey look at that we got

00:04:33.900 --> 00:04:40.620
a graphics card RTX 4070 TI tough gaming

00:04:37.259 --> 00:04:43.139
12 gigabytes RAM aorus sync of course is

00:04:40.620 --> 00:04:47.720
the OC Edition this is a much nicer box than the motherboard ASUS this

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:53.940
particular card the OC Edition is around 850 bucks but the non-oc

00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:57.660
version of this is 799.99 on the back we've got three DisplayPort and two HDMI

00:04:56.280 --> 00:05:02.699
that's a good Loadout a lot of cars nowadays are just like 2dp to HDMI or

00:05:00.540 --> 00:05:07.199
3dp one HDMI this one has at least two of each in terms of power this card is

00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:11.280
using the new 12 pin connector I don't know if our power supply has it but they

00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:16.979
include an adapter so you can run two standard PCIe eight

00:05:13.860 --> 00:05:18.900
pins into the fancy 12 pin when you're

00:05:16.979 --> 00:05:23.100
plugging this in make sure that it is plugged all the way in in terms of the

00:05:20.940 --> 00:05:28.380
cooler it's a triple fan design it's a big cooler I mean just look the card PCB

00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:31.139
ends here and the cooler actually goes all the way over here so you're gonna

00:05:29.280 --> 00:05:35.460
get some flow through these slots here it's a little bit bigger than a three

00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:38.940
slot design just ever so slightly like this is three slots and this shuts out a

00:05:37.080 --> 00:05:43.979
little bit it uses military grade capacitors that are rated for 20 000

00:05:41.220 --> 00:05:46.979
hours at 105 degrees Celsius I imagine they'll probably run a lot colder than

00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:51.060
that so you should get more than twenty thousand hours but other than that just

00:05:49.080 --> 00:05:56.039
it's a 470 TI it's gonna be a very very fast graphics card what's left oh right

00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:03.660
I need something to build the computer in oh my God

00:05:59.880 --> 00:06:06.840
what is this the gt502 tough gaming case

00:06:03.660 --> 00:06:08.100
oh look at that it's got handles

00:06:06.840 --> 00:06:12.300
oh whoa this is larger than I expected but

00:06:10.860 --> 00:06:17.039
look it's got handles so I'm just like yeah it's fine it's it's not that heavy

00:06:15.479 --> 00:06:21.660
actually this is they're very nice handles like look some padding in there

00:06:19.320 --> 00:06:25.979
like God damn brother what is this oh oh look at that quick release side panels

00:06:23.580 --> 00:06:29.160
whoa look there's some peels in oh these are

00:06:27.479 --> 00:06:34.020
fan filters nice okay I'm not gonna peel those in I'm just gonna leave them on there that's a little hack for you

00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:36.840
they're magnetic but also you could just leave this tape here and then you don't

00:06:35.699 --> 00:06:40.500
have to worry about the magnet coming off just leave it what else we got here

00:06:38.699 --> 00:06:44.759
okay so this is a dual chamber design back here you're going to have power

00:06:42.539 --> 00:06:48.720
supply down here you can put fans up here there's some SSD mounts hard drive

00:06:46.979 --> 00:06:53.100
Mount but it's kind of like a second chamber back here so everything's

00:06:50.340 --> 00:06:57.840
separate apparently these straps can hold up to 30 kilograms which is like

00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:01.080
over 60 pounds I bet you these could hold more than that I feel like one of

00:06:59.400 --> 00:07:04.620
these could support 60 pounds but either way that's plenty enough to support an

00:07:03.419 --> 00:07:08.699
entire system so if you were going to take this into a LAN party this

00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:12.720
it up take it for a walk I got some clarification on the Dual Zone you could

00:07:10.740 --> 00:07:16.979
put a second radiator back here that was specifically for cooling your GPU that's

00:07:15.060 --> 00:07:20.520
why they say you could have dual zone Heating and Cooling but if you're using

00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:24.900
an air-cooled GPU like we are obviously the GPU

00:07:23.099 --> 00:07:29.220
is going to go in the front here so it's only one zone for that this is a nice

00:07:27.300 --> 00:07:33.120
looking case I have no idea what case they got inspiration from when building

00:07:30.780 --> 00:07:37.620
this one I like the quick release side panels big tempered glass panel which is

00:07:35.460 --> 00:07:42.120
nice I'm a big fan of cases with glass in the front just because of the amount

00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:46.380
of access you get it does hinder your Cooling in some ways because you don't

00:07:43.860 --> 00:07:50.840
have fans up here but this case has a little trick up its sleeve you see these

00:07:48.060 --> 00:07:50.840
steam outs here

00:07:53.280 --> 00:07:59.520
a couple of fans there or an AIO or like a distribution plate for a water coin

00:07:57.479 --> 00:08:04.740
setup very versatile how many fans can you put in this thing we got one two

00:08:00.900 --> 00:08:08.639
three four five six seven eight nine ten

00:08:04.740 --> 00:08:10.800
eleven twelve thirteen fans holy

00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:14.039
that's a lot of fans this is not a tough power supply do they make tough power

00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:17.880
supplies do we know this is also kind of a weird power supply for this build it's

00:08:15.599 --> 00:08:21.419
sfxl which is unnecessary and more expensive than a

00:08:19.919 --> 00:08:26.099
regular ATX power supply which this case does support however it's what I had

00:08:24.060 --> 00:08:29.580
over here already and most sfx power supplies

00:08:27.300 --> 00:08:33.599
come with a little adapter so you can put them in an ATX case just like that

00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:37.440
you see it's like now it's it's big size say if you were planning or thinking

00:08:35.820 --> 00:08:41.940
down the road hey I might do a small form factor build someday well you could

00:08:39.779 --> 00:08:46.260
buy an sfx power supply use the included adapter and then you

00:08:45.180 --> 00:08:52.200
don't have to worry about buying a new power supply down the road a lot of the time I make this mistake I'm like I'm

00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:57.060
gonna put my computer together put my computer together throw the motherboard in there let's do it motherboard's in

00:08:55.260 --> 00:09:02.220
you put your AIO in and then you're like crap I didn't run the cables how am I

00:08:59.339 --> 00:09:06.060
gonna I gotta fish these stupid EPS cables through these little little

00:09:03.980 --> 00:09:10.440
doodads here but this there's a lot of space even if you put an AIO here it

00:09:08.160 --> 00:09:13.560
would be a little tight but um if you don't have an AIO here because you can

00:09:11.700 --> 00:09:18.180
put the AO on the side with this case you got all this access you can cram

00:09:16.380 --> 00:09:25.160
cables through there all you want no problemo wow that's a hell of a

00:09:21.420 --> 00:09:28.440
what is this thing this is a ryugen 2

00:09:25.160 --> 00:09:31.200
240. it's got the mother of all bumps

00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:35.100
here Jesus I think most of it is this oh yeah wow whoa it just comes off what the

00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:44.880
hell yeah okay that's just basically all screen

00:09:44.880 --> 00:09:51.120
all right GPU goes in we're getting there okay that's a computer right looks

00:09:50.220 --> 00:09:57.480
like a computer I've never built one before so this is this is all news to me whoa look at that

00:09:55.800 --> 00:10:06.480
what is this the tough gaming VG 78u 4K 144hz HD

00:10:02.459 --> 00:10:09.000
freesync premium 90 DCI P3 color gamut

00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:13.080
we got HDMI 2.1 g-sync one millisecond response time wow this thing has a lot

00:10:11.040 --> 00:10:20.220
of ports holy crap spinning around there is four HDMI

00:10:15.839 --> 00:10:22.140
inputs DisplayPort audio and a USB hub

00:10:20.220 --> 00:10:26.339
two of them are HDMI 2.1 too so you could have your computer plugged in over

00:10:23.640 --> 00:10:30.480
HDMI 2.1 and a console it's like actually kind of dope hey it lights up

00:10:28.500 --> 00:10:34.920
that's a good sign all right we've got GPU tweak 3 open here they revamped the

00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:38.820
user interface so it looks a lot nicer they also overhauled the frequency and

00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:42.480
voltage settings and they also added automatic profile switching I'm just

00:10:40.560 --> 00:10:48.180
gonna like yeah screw it let's just set our power Target a little higher yeah

00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:50.760
oh man we're playing at 4K Ultra

00:10:48.180 --> 00:10:55.200
nightmare settings Ray tracing on and we're still over 100 FPS this game runs

00:10:53.459 --> 00:10:59.519
so good and looks so good that it makes other games

00:10:56.459 --> 00:11:01.800
just kind of a joke like how can they

00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:06.000
achieve these Graphics in this performance and other games are not

00:11:04.260 --> 00:11:09.180
anywhere close I mean there are there are games that run good but this one

00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:13.940
runs really good check our temperatures we got our CPU

00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:18.720
package temperature let's see 57 degrees we're drawn 70 Watts you're not going to

00:11:17.220 --> 00:11:24.300
be pushing your CPU too bad when you're gaming usually uh what do we got for

00:11:20.820 --> 00:11:27.300
graphics card 64 degrees 225 watts of

00:11:24.300 --> 00:11:30.180
power 230 watts of power it performs

00:11:27.300 --> 00:11:33.240
good it's quiet it's cool and best of all you can check out the ASUS tough

00:11:31.980 --> 00:11:37.920
lineup at the link down in the description they also have a giveaway running for some of their tough products

00:11:35.940 --> 00:11:42.540
so definitely check that out as well if you like this video like it comment what

00:11:39.959 --> 00:11:46.160
