 In 2014 Intel sent us the space capsule and it was cool. In 2015 they sent us the master system, which frankly wasn't that cool. It is now 2016 and if Windows release patterns are anything to go on, then this one... Should be cool. Okay, so as usual I'm equipped with my instructions. The box itself and... And... this isn't usual. My smoke machine for added dramatic effect. I'm sure this stuff's good for you. Packing peanuts. The worst thing on earth. Okay, so first is a strap. I get the symbolism here. Intel's thinking... What shall we send a strapping young gentleman like Linus Sebastian? Okay. There is... An LED flashlight. There is a Gerber knife. Nice, I can complete the rest of my unboxing with this. That seems like dangerous. It's the kind of thing that, you know, big liability concerned companies like Intel usually avoid. It's like sending knives without 16 warnings over top of them telling you not to cut yourself with it too hard. And that's pretty much it. Space capsule to the rescue. Oh yes. Okay, so first up is the Intel classified brief and close, which the instructions assure me are actually okay to read. Department of Strategic Services Intel Corporation agent, you have been activated. As of this morning the... Sorry, I'm fine really. Nations top system builders have been recruited to create the most extreme gaming rig imaginable. So in a nutshell, Intel is launching a competition where 12 system builders will all compete to build the best possible most amazing gaming system. So you the public can vote for which of the 12 finished systems will get given away, so seven of them, and you can pay attention to that using hashtag IntelRigChallenge and you can cast your vote by sharing your favorite team on Twitter with that hashtag. Voting can be done up to one time per day through September 3rd and each vote wins them a chance to win one of the final seven rigs that will be raffled off at Pact Prime. But let's find out what else is in here. Aha, a lighter? That's a taser dude. No, it's a lighter. That's a taser. It is not a taser. I mean, I'm not gonna touch it and find out, but jeez. Look at that. That's probably a charger. A Yeti Intel Extreme Challenge thermos. Ah, now we've gotten to the bulk of the action here. So there's an all-access pass to Pact Prime, which apparently includes airfare, hotel, and conference. Not too shabby. There's Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege. Please tell me it's a PC copy. Yes, it is. Ah, good. I thought there might have been possible Intel completely lost their mind sending knives and dangerous lighters and console copies of video games to people. Also inside is a pair of Rocket Cave or CAHV, I think they call them, headphones, and Intel Extreme Rig Challenge t-shirt. They assumed large. They were wrong. And then finally, in place of what would normally be the products that they've just announced, like the new Core i7 i7-6950X 10-core Extreme Edition processor with Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0, an unlocked Core Multiplier, an integrated Quad Channel DDR4 2400 memory controller. Unlike how they normally include that product in the box, I get this handsome piece of paper, which I plan to put on my wall in my office. Other than that, I think we've got some manuals here. Yes, manuals and documentation, and this very nice backpack. So that's pretty much the gist of it, guys. Follow along with the Intel Extreme Rig Challenge using the hashtags on Twitter that I mentioned before, and you can find links to the full details in the video description.
