our coverage of computex 2017 is brought to you by the Corsair one and synergy
0:05
check them out at the link in the video description i freaking swear these guys
0:09
at calios have to be some of the biggest teasers in the industry because this is
0:12
the third time now that i'm looking at a completely new iteration of their
0:17
product and none of these things have actually reached the mass market yet
0:21
they're just like we're just going to keep making cooler and cooler prototypes
0:26
and not stress out too much about anybody actually ever being able to buy
0:30
one so this one right here is the nsgs
0:34
zero this is the latest prototype of what will hopefully sometime late this
0:40
year or early next
0:44
oh yes oh yes sure yeah whatever i don't even believe you guys but this is the
0:48
latest iteration of their fully passive pc case now the last time i
0:54
checked one of these out which was on our holy series you can check that out
0:58
here it was actually their technology was modded into a leanly o series case
1:04
this time they've gone you know what that was way too complicated for an end
1:08
user to try to configure by themselves so screw it we're just gonna go make a
1:12
case and this is what we've got here so
1:15
there are two massive radiators one in
1:19
the front that handles all the cooling for the GPU
1:23
completely passively we're talking gtx 1080 ti at 61 degrees celsius and then
1:29
at the bottom has your front i o as well as a couple of mounts for either two and
1:34
a half or three and a half inch drives oh and if you want to kick it into high
1:38
gear i guess you can throw in a couple of 120 millimeter fans
1:42
and then this additional one and oh man i just
1:46
hopefully i didn't break it too bad there
1:49
pop that back into place and then this one on the back handles the cooling for
1:54
the CPU and can also accept fans if you
1:57
want to take it to the extreme now these guys are modders at their
2:04
cores and i love the industrial design of this case
2:07
because the whole thing is basically pure
2:11
functionality pure utility gigantic i
2:14
mean we're talking about is it 21 kilos of aluminum or something stupid like
2:18
that like pure aluminum cooling raw power and then blank canvases so you can
2:24
etch whatever you want on here you could wrap it in vinyl you could paint it you
2:28
could do pretty much whatever you want with it and they've made a lot of
2:31
improvements to the overall design since some of the early iterations so now
2:36
instead of io having to be kind of
2:40
machined into the back of the case and then you run the cables internally now
2:44
they've gone with an open design type case that uses tempered glass to cover
2:48
it up and gives you full access to the i o so you're probably wondering why are
2:53
they in the seasonic booth if you equip it with a seasonic passive power supply
2:59
if you use their GPU plates along with their like
3:04
foam aluminum cooling things and oh by
3:07
the way these covers are going to be available in a variety of designs
3:11
you can run your extremely high performance system it's a 6950x and a
3:16
1080 ti completely fanlessly
3:20
all you will hear in a very quiet room
3:23
is a little bit of boiling because that's how the thing is cooled
3:28
there's no pump even the coolant moves pretty much on its own through natural
3:33
convection so all that sounds great Linus
3:38
how much is it going to cost actually not quite as bad as you might
3:43
think they're targeting around 600 euros which does sound like a lot but when you
3:47
consider what an all aluminum and tempered glass case design would cost
3:51
you plus that it comes with water cooling grade cooling for the GPU and
3:56
the CPU that's actually not that bad
4:01
so thanks for checking out this video once again all of our coverage of
4:04
computex 2017 is brought to you by the Corsair one their 12 liter freaking
4:10
amazing vr ready gaming pc that comes with a quad core core i7 processor and
4:15
up to a gtx 1080 ti as well as synergy
4:18
the software that lets you share your keyboard and mouse between multiple
4:21
computers even a Windows machine a Linux machine and a mac whoa you can save 25
4:26
