I. Foreword: MSI's sincerity MSI GS65 series notebook is listed
Thin and powerful notebooks have always been the goal of many gamers. A year ago, the thin and light gamebooks were either poorly performing or poorly cooled, and they were able to perform less in both areas. There are few, and the price is very high.
In June 2017, NVIDIA released a Max-Q solution for thin and light game books, which enabled the performance of mobile graphics cards to maintain their peak performance, control their noise, power consumption, and make the notebook look lighter and thinner. Make the game as a whole in the most balanced state.
With the design of the MAX-Q, NVIDIA can even plug a GTX 1080-class graphics card into a gamebook with a thickness of only 18nm.
On April 3, 2018, Intel officially released the Coffee Lake-H series of mobile high-performance eight-generation Core processors for high-performance gaming products. With the power of 14nm++ technology, two cores were born under the same TDP. Theory The performance is significantly more than 40% of the previous generation. Coffee Lake-H and NVIDIA Max-Q match like a pair of heavenly, thin and powerful notebook is no longer a fantasy.
After Intel released the Coffee Lake-H processor, MSI also launched the GS65 series of thin and light game books. G stands for GAME, which is positioned as the game book; S stands for Stealth thin, which is thin and light; 6 means the screen size is 15.6 inches. 5 indicates that it is the 5th generation of the series (in fact, the fourth generation, MSI did not launch GS64, perhaps because of the consideration of traditional Chinese culture, or it may be considered that the performance of GS65 has risen more than 2 generations compared to GS63. ) .
The MSI GS65 is equipped with Intel's eight-generation 6-core Core i7-8750H processor, and GTX 1070 Max-Q alone, plus dual-channel 16GB memory and 512GB SSD. This hardware configuration is called any aspect. Top level.
In addition, the most prominent feature of the GS65 is that it is equipped with a 144Hz IPS screen (mostly 144Hz notebooks are used TN screens), 144Hz believe that everyone only bring, it gives players a silky smooth The feeling of the game.
The GS65 has achieved this with only a thickness of 18mm and a weight of 1.8KG. MSI's R&D strength is fully demonstrated here.
The MSI GS65 parameters are as follows:
We received a version with the GTX 1070 (Max-Q), and the GS65 is also available with the GTX 1060 (Max-Q) model.
The GTX 1070 (Max-Q) has 2048 stream processors, 64 ROP units, and 128 texture units. The specification is slightly stronger than the desktop version of GTX 1070. However, the base frequency is 1101MHz, and the acceleration frequency of 1266MHz is much behind the desktop version.
At low to medium loads, the GTX 1070 (Max-Q) can run at 1500MHz. In most cases, the GTX 1070 (Max-Q) can achieve around 80% performance on the desktop GTX 1070.
At present, the news of the 11-series graphics card is flying all over the world. With the current information obtained, the biggest improvement of the 11 series is the use of GDDR6 memory and a more advanced 12nm process (in fact, TSMC 16nm process changed its name), and there will be no structure. Too much change, expected performance will increase by about 20%.
However, given the yield and capacity problems of GDDR6's initial mass production, the price will not look good. After the 11-series graphics card is released, it will be complementary to the 10 series of video cards such as GTX 1070 (Max-Q) for a long time.
