it may be belated but this look into the crazy Russians crazy laboratory is going
0:14
to be for one of our craziest systems yet this is the Vesta 6350 OC and you
0:20
guys have actually seen this system already before in the 2012 PC lineup as
0:25
well as if you were looking very closely in the new Vancouver your preview that
0:31
uh where I showed you our cool NC PC setup however we wanted to do a
0:36
dedicated video that's sort of about this system but it's also about our
0:41
pre-overclocked systems in general so for this one okay let's go through the
0:45
let's go through the overall specs really quickly here so it has a 2600k
0:49
it's got an isus 8 and isus an isus like
0:53
like the Thunder God ASUS p8 z68 V Pro
0:57
gen 3 so that is PCI Express gen 3 radio assuming you put in a different CPU
1:01
later but the point is just to say SS motherboard it's good for overclocking
1:05
all that good stuff we've got an h80 for liquid cooling we've got 16 gigs of
1:09
Corsair Vengeance memory as well as a Corsair 750 W power supply so it's kind
1:15
of a a best of the best premium Brands machine but stability is very very
1:20
important so it is pre-overclocked to 4 GHz but with the M4 SSD m4s are renowned
1:26
for stability the ASUS motherboard the Corsair power supply and and our
1:30
validation process we are still comfortable taking this overclocked
1:34
system and giving it a full one-year warranty so we've had a lot of customers
1:39
ask us well you know why don't you just do pre- overclocking on all the systems
1:43
and the reason is because we lock down the components to something we know is
1:46
stable changing something as simple as the SSD maybe it doesn't like that
1:51
particular controller maybe it doesn't like that particular board changing the
1:55
RAM changing the cooler can cause what is a validated and tested overclock see
2:01
you can see the lab here we've got all of this running for a minimum of 48
2:06
hours before we consider something validated and then we take that as a
2:10
worst case scenario so we do try a couple of different chips to make sure
2:13
that we're not going to run into any difficulties um changing one component
2:18
can cause a validated overclock to be completely unstable so that is something
2:22
that we try to be very aware of and due to the uh
2:27
or based on the nonexisting RMA rates on
2:31
our pre-overclocked systems I would say that we're achieving that so if you guys
2:34
are wondering why we only do a few pre-overclocked systems that is why we
2:38
need to make sure that they're going to be as stable in the field as they are in our lab and vice versa also what's the
2:44
point the Russian wrote this so I have to I have to read it up this is on my
2:48
little scripty thing here okay so besides what's the point of having more
2:53
FPS is your system crashes cres during
2:57
an intense moment and you end up letting your team down crazy rushan learn the
3:02
hard way years ago at a Counter-Strike
3:05
tournament it's been a long day man come on uh so anyway where was I going with
3:12
that ah the case is the 600D special edition white and then the video card
3:16
for this particular system you can choose either a 6970 or GTX 570 and it's
3:22
actually in check this out this is our most recent flyer that if you live in BC
3:26
or Ontario you might have even gotten I think it looks it looks baller I think
3:31
it looks fly yeah fly um no because if you're crazy you
3:37
think you can fly no if you're cool you would know what it means oh all right
3:41
well thank you for checking out our little look at the uh this particular PC
3:46
in the crazy laboratory don't forget to subscribe for more videos about PCS and
3:51
components and all that good stuff just like this one oh oh oh and the Russian
3:55
wants to show us okay okay okay so here no that's not the right one is it you're
3:59
going to turn turn it off so we can see this is a little trick that actually PS
4:03
more strain on the system oh oh okay
4:06
yep you go yeah something had actually learned from W and 6xc Facebook regulars
4:11
so very validated and running at only 60° with the h80 cooler strapped onto
4:16
the back
