thank you to Squarespace for sending us to CES 2016 this year check out their
0:03
Link in the video description down below all right guys before we get into
0:07
the giveaway which I know you guys are probably a little antsy for I got to
0:10
talk about the super micro h170 this board is pretty crazy because it allows
0:15
overclocking on non- overclockable CPUs the nonk series CPUs and it's using an H
0:20
series chipset which is a non overclocking chipset but you can
0:24
overclock that lands its price kind of somewhere between what you would expect
0:28
from a standard h170 and a standard Zed
0:31
170 board they accomplished this overclock ability in layman's terms by
0:35
having a custom BIOS with some nice little algorithms in there and by having
0:39
an external clock generator outside of the CPU's platform this allows them to
0:43
completely bypass Intel's currently locked overclocking clock speed
0:48
generator and have their own this requires some upgrades to what you would
0:52
normally see on an h170 board you need an expanded vrm you need expanded
0:57
cooling you need that kind of stuff but that's where the cost is not in the
1:00
chipset but you get the same capabilities pretty damn cool for
1:04
example they have an i36100 te here
1:07
which normally runs at 2.7 GHz it's a two core 4 thread processor and they
1:12
have it overclocked to 4.1 which is pretty ridiculous not
1:17
really a thing we're used to and very very very cool and then finally on the
1:22
back for Io you have two USB 2.0 PS2 DVI
1:27
HDMI DisplayPort Optical 4 USB 3 3.0
1:30
gbit Ethernet and a bank of 3.5 mm audio
1:34
connectors finally to the giveaway details we got some more to talk about
1:37
after that but first I need you guys to like subscribe do that then go down
1:41
below and comment let me know what you think about overclocking on a nonk CPU
1:46
and an H series chipset if you win that will get you this whole system that's 16
1:50
GB of Predator ddr4 a 256 gbyte Fury SSD
1:55
from hyperx a PNY reference 980ti a 750
1:59
wat cic power supply the i36100 te that
2:03
we mentioned earlier which does come pre- overclock to 4.1 GHz just in case
2:07
you're worried about doing that on your own and obviously the super micro h170
2:11
and super micro S5 special edition as well also if you didn't notice it comes
2:15
with the nice little add-ons like the custom red extension sleevings and the
2:20
red LEDs that go around the case and last but not least we have the C7 z170
2:25
oce this is a green stylized motherboard
2:28
which is actually super cool cuz it's a ton of people that are doing that right now this also features the overclock
2:33
ability for nonk series CPUs that the previous motherboard does but this is a
2:37
z 170 chipset so if you have say a 6700
2:41
you'd be able to overclock it unlike normal where you'd have to overclock on
2:45
a 6700k you might be able to save some money that way pretty cool in terms of
2:49
IO this one has a PS2 Port two USB 2.0
2:52
ports Optical HDMI DisplayPort DVI two
2:56
USB 3.0 a USB type-c Gen 2 connector two
3:00
gigabit connectors and a bank of 3.5 millimeter audio jacks thank you guys
3:04
for watching stay subscribed to L Tech to see all the rest of our CES content
3:07
and thank you to Squarespace for bringing us here this year if you need to make a website for whatever I'm
3:12
honestly running out of ideas for these so if you want to make a website about
3:16
ideas about why you would make a website you could do that with Squarespace using
3:20
their template engine and you could sell your ideas with their Commerce module so
3:24
there I guess I'm still not out of ideas just quite yet if you're having troubles
3:27
with that they have 247 live chat support and email support and if you buy
3:31
a year of Squarespace you get a domain for free Squarespace build it beautiful
3:36
thanks for watching we'll see you guys next time
