I am afraid that no one would have thought that Intel, AMD, this century's family can come together to create a top-level Kaby Lake-G whether CPU or GPU, and to create a new high-end NUC Hades Canyon, third-party Products are also born one after another.
The new NUC has multiple versions as usual. The NUC8i7HVK is a high version, starts at $999, and carries a new one. Core i7-8809G , Quad core eight threads, CPU frequency 3.1-4.2GHz, is deteriorating AMD RX Vega M GPU, 1536 stream processors, frequency 1093-1190MHz, with 4GB HBM2 memory, overall thermal design power consumption 100W.
GamersNexus also experienced this high-energy NUC, preloaded 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD.
This is the front and back side of the internal motherboard, irregular shape, where the processor, chipset in the front, memory, M.2 slot are placed on the other side.
In addition to the default frequency in the test, It will also push the CPU to the full-core 4.3 GHz, but it will reduce to 4.2 GHz when the load is high, and the GPU core/memory memory will exceed 1320/900 MHz, and the memory can exceed 3200 MHz. , It is not easy for such a space-limited mini machine.
The CPU test is very simple. It only runs a Blender video editing test. Basically similar to the six-core six thread i5-8400 , Accelerated after overclocking, but limited in scope.
GPU game testing is the focus:
Rocket League's 1080p high-quality ran out of 162 FPS, after overclocking up to 182 FPS, GT1030 and APU were directly thrown off N Streets.
"DOTA2" 1080p high quality also broke out 125FPS.
The "CSGO" 1080p image quality has reached 250FPS.
"Sniper Elite" 1080p high-definition average frame rate of 72.4FPS, after overclocking over 80FPS, is already close to overclocked version of RX 470, roughly equivalent to GTX 1060.
The glory of the soul of the "1080 glory" video quality is close to 56FPS, and it is more stable after overclocking.
"Ghosts" 1080p very high quality can also run out of 45FPS, slightly higher than the GTX 1050 Ti but slightly lower than the RX 470.
The 4K high image quality challenge of "Singularity Ashes" has even reached 30FPS, which is not easy.
Fire Strike Extreme lasted half an hour. The core temperature is stable at around 76°C Acceptable, if the fan is running at full speed, it can be controlled at 55°C.
After the overclocking, the pressure is very high. The fan's running power is as high as 91°C.
The last thing is noise. Standby at only 30 decibels just 0.5 meters away. Slightly heard. 36 decibels in the game , It's quieter than a regular graphics card, and when the fan is up to 53 dB at full speed, it's annoying.
