thanks to squarespace for sponsoring this video at ces 2018 create an awesome
0:04
website or online store using their all in one platform today and speaking of
0:07
today we're here at origin pc checking out their new millennium now their
0:11
original millennium launched a few years back and featured something really cool
0:14
it was their variable mounting system that is now fully patented and is still
0:18
here on display normally you would see the internals of the system on this side
0:22
of the computer but they have it they're showing off the variable mounting here so you have graphics cards facing up the
0:27
motherboard is rotated it looks really cool what comes along with that is now
0:31
your i o is all at the top and they've revamped this part a little bit so
0:35
there's now a magnetic top and show you guys there
0:40
six magnets three on each side and it has a velcro mounted dust cover which is
0:44
actually really cool just shove that back in there you can see all your i o
0:48
like standard is on the top now the back doesn't have i o because naturally it's
0:52
all up here but if you want to look at front i o they've changed that a little
0:56
bit too now it has a sliding cover so you can hide all of it if you don't
1:00
have anything plugged up there and it'll look all nice and sleek or you can slide
1:03
it up access your usb type-c and your led switch so you can switch between
1:08
their now rf controlled controller so this you don't have to like target it
1:13
and point at it from wherever you just point somewhere completely different
1:16
press a button it'll work it can sync up to i believe five of these all at once
1:20
you can change your whole room if you want to have them all different colors which is really cool or you can just
1:25
press the button and it switches to motherboard control and then your RAM
1:28
and the motherboard lighting and all that kind of stuff syncs up you can have it done either way
1:32
moving up to the front there's now an aluminum front panel that can open from
1:35
left or right this one in particular is opening from the right side and in here
1:40
you can see that they have an optional vr panel so it has an HDMI and two usb 3
1:45
outs and a hot swap hard drive bay down in the bottom now as far as side panels
1:50
go you have a lot of options in this configuration we have dual glass but you
1:54
could have one glass you could have one aluminum you could have both aluminum
1:58
you could have aluminum with a textured finish on it the one that they have here
2:01
is a wood texture so you can actually feel the grain as you run your hand
2:04
along it the glass and aluminum can both have laser etching so for the glass they
2:09
would laser etch the inside so that your led lighting on the inside would catch
2:13
just on the inside of the etching and it looks really cool for the aluminum
2:16
panels when it gets laser etched you could laser etch a photo into there they
2:20
have a really cool doom scene done here but you could get whatever done you
2:23
wanted i was told you could send in a picture of your dog and they could have it jumping over some gaming scene
2:28
whatever they'll have their internal art team do that for you super cool also
2:32
they're completely tool-less so you can just pull off the magnetic mounting on
2:36
the side here it swings out on a nice hinge and you can just lift it right off
2:40
and swap it with another panel if you want you could order more than two
2:44
panels with your system now if you ordered your new millennium and it's just you know you're enjoying it a lot
2:48
but you just need more out of life you can upgrade on the fly you don't have to
2:52
buy a whole new case you can add this bottom bay which upgrades it directly to
2:56
the genesis chassis in there you can throw pretty much whatever you want you
3:00
could have a diorama scene if you want to do something weird like that or you could just go directly with a huge
3:04
amount of hard drives three and a half inch or two and a half inch ssds water
3:08
cooling i believe you can have two 360 radiators in the bottom if you wanted to
3:12
go really really hardcore with the water cooling and there you go you're upgraded
3:15
that's it we're also checking out the new omni which now comes with a 650 watt
3:19
power supply which is great because it can power any single graphics card it
3:22
also has moved up from an mitx board to an m80x board which isn't for expanding
3:28
to multiple gpus but you can have more RAM and other expandability options
3:32
which is great it's also on the front has a 144hz samsung panel and it's fully
3:39
upgradable the CPU the graphics card everything RAM can all be swapped out by
3:43
you and last but not least we have the kronos xl this is a step up from the
3:48
chronos in terms of size and power you move up from an itx board to an matx
3:54
board also you have dual graphics cards here they have displayed the light side
3:59
and dark side titan x graphics cards which looks super cool in this rig and
4:04
it can be placed in multiple configurations so as we have it here it
4:08
can be standing up but it can also rotate down onto its side to show off
4:12
those gpus on the side and to work quite well in a home theater setup and
