our coverage of computex 2017 is brought to you by Synergy and the Corsair 1 you
0:05
can check them out at the link in the video description so we are here at the
0:08
Silverstone Booth with a product that I have been freaking excited to get my
0:13
hands on for about the last 5 months the
0:16
bad news for Silverstone is that uh
0:19
their product isn't actually it theirs is an accessory for it so this is the
0:25
rvz 04 this is a prototype case for a a
0:30
new form factor that ASRock has been developing called micro STX and the
0:35
objective with micro STX is to take well small form factor gaming PCs and bring
0:41
them even smaller than ever before so
0:44
you can see right here this box is not much bigger than what you might expect
0:47
to find like a you know integrated Graphics type PC inside but when you
0:53
open it up you've got your front IO you got your you know your uh Ethernet your
0:58
a couple USB ports oh wait a minute wow that is a beefy power connector isn't it
1:03
yeah that's right when you open this thing up you will find a full socketed
1:08
quad core core i7 processor two sodm
1:11
slots and yes my friends that is an mxm
1:14
based graphics card in this case it is actually a GTX 1070 so we are looking at
1:21
full desktop grade graphics performance in an enclosure that frankly isn't that
1:26
much bigger than some of the ridiculous graphics card designs that you'll find
1:30
on the market now the bad news is that
1:33
right now this form factor doesn't have a ton of support in fact the only way to
1:38
get your hands on one of these mxm graphics cards is to go on eBay and try
1:42
and find one or in the case of those guys call up a buddy over at one of the
1:46
uh manufacturing plants that makes them
1:49
but they're hoping that with enough consumer interest we could see
1:54
full-fledged GTX 1070 GTX 1080 even
1:57
gaming PCs that are not much bigger than
2:00
what you could jam into an oversized
2:04
pocket so thanks for watching guys and a huge shout out to Synergy for allowing
2:08
