This post is the 40th article in my series. It is also exactly the 80th article of my original creation. It should have been written as a memorable production. However, Tiaojiao is a sad obsessive-compulsive disorder patient. Not long after sending out, I found a big problem when I looked at it, so this article still had to clean up the buttocks she left behind.
You guys look:
This I have not verified it myself. .
I have not verified it myself. .
Not verified. .
Verified. .
If it is not verified, then it cannot be called a perfect toss. So after many days of inner struggle - mainly testing, overclocking, crashing, restarting, and then testing such a process is too painful - it is still decided to honestly re-verify itself. Whether the non-K overclocking will cause the failure and invalidation of the core. Otherwise, there is always a block in the heart. This series will not be able to proceed happily.
In front of the fragmentationDo not know when it started, there have been two such jokes to describe intel and small AA which is a joy for decades:
Intel is to buy CPU to send graphics
Small AA is to buy graphics card to send CPU
However, from the current sales of these two CPUs, it is obviously more successful to buy a CPU to send graphics cards, because not every user who buys a computer needs a powerful graphics card to play the game, but if there is no CPU, then there is not even a single one. Is it impossible to set up the computer?
And after all, intel is a company that is more eager than the slide maker AA. It will not be like the small AA has been stagnant for so many years in CPU power. On the contrary, from the earliest G-series chipset integrated graphics cards to the current internal core of the iris core graphics card, Intel's progress in graphics capabilities over the years is obvious to all, the absolute performance of the top model iris pro can even be hung up. The small AA's top APU core shows no stress (of course the price is too expensive to be a huge disadvantage of not being able to wash land). And intel has withdrawn from the discrete graphics community since its i752 years ago, and the small AA's ATI has been one of the only big players in the history of the game. With this in mind, the current APU platform of the small AA even more creates a feeling that the mud is not on the wall.
Of course, the daily AA that has turned 360 degrees, and Zen's high hopes that did not come out, did not let go. We can be cautiously optimistic.
Pulled so much gossip, mainly want to point out that the current nuclear progress is indeed a trivial matter, has long been not a level to play mine clearance, but enough to meet the user's needs in the 1080P resolution of some light games, such as the popular moba class Online games, and CF-like screens are simple gun gun gun online games. And through the test of this article, you will be surprised to find that if you lower the resolution and special effects, skylake's new generation of civilian nuclear HD530 can even drive GTA5 such a masterpiece, the more advanced Iris Graphics 540 is even the top Iris Pro Graphics 580 should be able to meet more advanced game requirements
In this way, for those who do not play 3A masterpieces, they are very attractive for users who only occasionally play online and leisure. The things that need to be specially configured to be completed by a single person can now be directly used to display ok. Expenses can also effectively reduce the size of the entire system. Well, in this original work, we will take a look at how much power the skylake check has in the end, not only in the default state, but also how to overclock the nuclear display.
In addition, the causes and solutions for failures caused by non-K overclocking will also be explained in detail based on my attempts during this period of time.
Although there was no personal experiment in the last post, the information on the non-K overclocking caused a nuclear failure was also known through the information on the Internet. It is also summarized here:
The main reason for the non-K overclocking failure is that the FSB of the skylake platform is actually linked to the apparent frequency. For example, if the FSB 100's basic standby frequency is 500, if the FSB exceeds 200 At this point, the checked base standby frequency will be automatically adjusted to 1000; if the FSB exceeds 150, it will be adjusted to 750. Therefore, the essence of the blackout caused by the failure of the core is actually the overclocking failure caused by the increase of the CPU's clock frequency.
After knowing the reason, it is relatively simple. Take the “6400t†in my hand as an example. The solution can only be used to manually set the apparent frequency in the bios. In this way, the apparent frequency will not follow. Frequency increase in proportion, but controllable, naturally it will not lead to a nuclear display frequency is too high, the tragedy of the black screen
However, it should be pointed out that, after all, the ES version of the CPU and the official version of the stepping is not the same, the 6400t can adjust the nuclear display frequency so that the nuclear display is working, but the official version of the CPU is still not known , because a formal The Pentium 4400 has been released by me. At present, there is no official version of skylake CPU for me to experiment with. But it does not matter, with the official version of skylake CPU want to simultaneously non-K overclocking and the use of nuclear display machine friends can use the following very simple way to verify whether the nuclear failure is due to frequency reasons: because the CPU default FSB is 100 , So first adjust the FSB to 103. At this time, the frequency of the core display should also become 1.03 times of the default frequency. This is a very very small overclocking rate. If the power is still turned on at this time, you can conclude the official version. The non-K overclocking of the CPU will actually cause the core to show hardware failure; if the 103 FSB can be normally turned on, the screen will use the core display, which means that the official version of the CPU can be normally used after the non-K overclocking, but it is necessary to set the core manually. frequency
The theoretical part is so simple, then the next step is to prepare for the actual battle.
First of all, let's first understand the frequency information of skylake's new generation of civilian nuclear HD530. By intercepting the parameters of the four CPUs i5-6400, i5-6500, i5-6600T, and i7-6700 in the intel official database, we can see that even though they are equipped with the HD530 core, the frequencies are different and the basic frequencies are all different. It is 350, however the maximum frequency starts from 950 up to 1.15g and there are four levels. So we can use this as a basis to judge that the HD530's frequency is at least safe to 1.15g, and that it is overclocked again. According to the current online example, it is not unusual for the HD to reach 1.4g or even 1.5g.
The official version of the HD530 is this way, so is the HD530 that we are carrying on the 6400t. We first take a look at GPUZ
It can be seen that the default clocking frequency in the desktop standby mode is indeed 350, which is the same as the official HD530. But the memory frequency of 900 is a bit weird, because I have already pushed the memory from 2400 to the default frequency of 3,080. I think only one possible explanation, that is, GPUZ can only read the original memory frequency setting information in bios, that is, 1800 (900x2), and the FSB at this time has gone from 100 to 170, so it just gets 3080. The actual memory frequency (1800x1.7)
The frequency of video memory is already calculated according to the multiple of FSB overclocking, so it seems that the mechanism of change in the frequency of the verification is as it was originally said. However, judging from the above two diagrams, GPUZ may not be able to accurately identify the core frequency and the actual memory frequency after overclocking. Therefore, we must try other tools when we begin the next section of the core frequency setting guide.
Nuclear Display Frequency Setup GuideFortunately, CPUZ's graphics page and AIDA64 can calculate and recognize the normal frequency after overclocking, and the HD530 that the 6400t is equipped with is somewhat strange. The default full-load frequency is only 700, but because the FSB has exceeded the default 1.7 times, Therefore, the corresponding full-load frequency was also 1.7 times the original, reaching 1198
The following figure can more directly show the relationship between the FSB and the display frequency
And at this time, the standby frequency also increased by 1.7 times from the default 350 to 599
However, for the HD530 with a maximum frequency of 1.15g, the 1.2g overclock is not too large. Here to talk about how to set the relevant bios
The first thing that should be set is the core frequency. In the yellow box below, the default is auto. Here, I fill in 700, which is the default full-load frequency, and can reach 1198 full-load frequency through the 1.7 FSB overclocking rate. It should be noted that the frequency here can only be set in multiples of 50, such as 600, 650, 700, 750 . The specific calculation rules are as follows: for example, if you fill in 750, the resulting full load frequency will be 1275 (750x1.7); if the FSB only exceeds 150, then if you fill in 700, the final full load frequency will be 1050. (700x1.5), if you fill in 800, then the final full load frequency will be 1200 (800x1.5)
As with normal video card overclocking, after the frequency is increased, it needs a suitable voltage to support it. Therefore, after setting the frequency, you should also set the checked voltage, which is also shown in the yellow box below. Here I set the fixed mode, voltage 1.14, anti-off pressure to the maximum level
After actually entering the system, it can be found that the actual voltage at full load is 1.16v, which is also the stable working voltage I try out at 1.2g frequency for your reference.
So far, the calculation rules of the skylake nuclear display frequency and the specific bios settings have been explained. It can be seen that there is no particular complexity. The only thing that needs attention is to calculate the frequency of overclocking the frequency and the final display of the full load frequency. The relationship between the other is to properly increase the nuclear voltage, generally less than 1.3v are relatively safe
Theoretical run points and games measuredAs the saying goes is that the horse pulls out and yo, the frequency of the graphics card looks beautiful again, still needs the theory to run the points and the test that the game measures. In this section we also just take a look at whether the HD530 at 1.2g is capable of shouldering everyday light entertainment needs.
First release the 3dmark theoretical run scores, from the lowest ice storm to the latest time spy
It should be said that these results are quite acceptable for the nuclear display. In particular, I was surprised to be able to finish the time spy completely. It seems that Intel said that this generation of nuclear support is not fully supported by DX12.
Also from the fire strike graphics points can reach 1200 + point of view, running in the 1.2g HD530 basically has similar performance to the old yellow GT630, for those who do not eat graphics card non-3A masterpiece can still hold the basic
For example, I watched the collapse of a few games from time to time. As a meba game with a relatively high image quality, the demand for the 101 pairs of graphics cards that most people play is still higher. In 1080P resolution, if you want to achieve the basic 60-frame smooth level, you still have to turn off most of the special effects as shown below.
The situation can be maintained at more than 70 frames if the situation is not intense and the picture is relatively simple.
In the case of all kinds of lost skills after the outbreak of the team fight, the number of frames will drop to around 50, but still at a relatively smooth level.
If you further reduce the fluency standard to 30 frames, I believe you can open more effects to get better results.
The 101 graphics card's requirements are lower, so the HD530 is still enough to enjoy the 1080P resolution, but the full effect seems to be a bit unrealistic
If you do get moba online games is just a nuclear basic literacy, that HD530 can actually get GTA5 can be a bit out of my expectations, of course, the resolution has been adjusted to 720P, all kinds of special effects are basically the lowest. The overall picture is set as follows
This kind of setting went into the plot mode and it actually felt very smooth when they first robbed the bank. Although the picture was bad, it was completely playable. So I turned on my own benchmark and ran it once to see how many frames I could have
Can see the whole course of the test, whether it is day or night, small scenes or large scenes, basically can maintain such a smooth and playable minimum standard of 30 frames, occasionally encounter a particularly simple scene can still reach 60 frames. Such a test result is still very surprising to me, after all, PS3 version of the GTA5 is also such a standard, and this is only 1.2g frequency driven by the DDR4-3000 memory capacity of the HD530, I believe if you can exceed 1.4g Even 1.5g, with DDR4-4000 memory, HD530's overall performance will have a big increase
From the above theoretical test results and game performance, the performance of the HD530 is still quite awesome. The mainstream online games are basically free of stress, and low-level special effects can still experience 3A masterpieces, and there are still some room for overclocking improvement. However, the GPGPU performance is still very general, and even less than the 6400t frequency 4.1g, of course, the average user does not have this need is
It should be said that through this period of torment, I improved my understanding of skylake non-K overclocking, but also made it clear that at least for the ES version of the CPU, non-K overclocking and nuclear display can coexist . Of course, for the non-K overclocking players of the official version of the CPU, you can use the method I mentioned in the post to verify whether the non-K overclocking will completely disable the nuclear, and look forward to the feedback after you try.
In addition, for the intel nuclear development that has now developed into the ninth generation, the performance is really impressive, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it should be able to meet 99% of the average user's daily use needs, as well as a considerable part of online game players. Game requirements. Of course, if you want to enjoy a 3A masterpiece with full effects, it's still necessary to have a mid-to-high end. However, such an enthusiastic player is only a small part of the computer users.
Finally, the 6400t cost-effectiveness that has been proven to be non-K overclocking and use of the core is further pushed up, because it can completely control the budget within 2500 to build a nuclear display host with top-level quad-core i7 performance. The specific configuration is as follows: :
CPU: ES version QHQG about 800 (the current price is a bit high, please bargain at the time of purchase, and ask the constitution, at least to be able to use up to 3.6g)
Motherboard: ASRock B150M Pro4/Hyper is about 550. (ASRock black technology motherboards can not only exceed FSB, but also some user feedback can also exceed memory, all kinds of interfaces are relatively complete, and there will be enough upgrade space in the future. The more important is the phase. More affordable than the Z170's motherboard
Memory: DDR4-2400 4g 2 about 350 (current memory prices, capacity has shrunk, but 8g is enough, there is a higher demand can be on 16g, of course, dual channel in order to verify the full performance is necessary )
SSD: 240g is about 500 or less (SSD is increasing in price as well as memory, but you can still buy 240/256g products within 500 hours, enough to install a few more frequently used games after installing the system)
Chassis power supply cooling: Because it is nuclear configuration and hard drive on one, so the 150w power supply is more than enough, plus the chassis cooling 300 then you can get
We hope that this verification-based evaluation will help those users who use nuclear technology to use non-K overclocking to improve CPU performance while using the core, or even slightly overclocking to improve core performance. Also hope that the final installation ideas can give you some reference
Well, this time we share here, we'll do goodbye the next time, diarrhea
