Unassuming game book - Machinist F57 Appreciation and Trial

In the game's market, the competition is becoming more and more intense. Everyone wants to take a slice of the gaming market. Everyone is trying their best to make the game more exciting. So, what kind of answer can we give to the subdivision brand machinists who are emerging Internet brands?

 

Appearance part:

A- side is quite clean. Only the M- shaped large-scale mark representing the machinist is on the front, which seems to be a recognized practice for many brands. It can also give a first impression on the label in the first place. However, this M still does not shine, just an imprint.

On the right side are two USB3.0 , network interfaces, and an SD card reader, which is quite convenient.

The left side is a VGA port, three audio ports, and a USB 2.0 . At the same time, it also retains a VGA interface. Although VGA is basically uncommon nowadays , for some old devices and projectors, VGA still has room to play.

Rear interface. Since the thickness of the game book is generally not very low, it also arranges many interfaces at the rear, including a USB3.0 , an HDMI , and a miniDP . The power connector is also at the rear.

Below the inner side of the screen, like most labels, the mechanic marked his English name here as a clear reminder.

The power button is arranged above the keyboard. This is not the same as many other machines. Now it is not enough to see such a huge power button on the contact surface. However, the power button slightly presses the feedback delay, and it takes a certain time to start the micro switch response. This is not the same as other notebooks. Use caution.

The sixth generation Core i7 tag is here. The machinist's internal CPU is 6700HQ .

The mark on the left is more interesting, and there are several tags that we don't see. In addition to indicating that it uses NVidia 's graphics card and settings with an HDMI interface, the other two stickers indicate that the sound system is from Japan's Golden Bridge, and the other one represents the notebook's innovative metaphysical voice driver bonus.

As a game, you can't just say no light. Mechanic F57 also arranges lights on the keyboard here, but there is only one kind of white light, but the brightness of the light can be adjusted by the FN key combination.

The opening and closing angle is maintained at an opening and closing angle of about 120 degrees. This angle is slightly smaller, but it has no effect on the game itself.

The perspective of the screen is still very large. Since it is a game, it will naturally not relax on the screen.

In terms of thickness, because it is a game book, the thickness of this piece cannot be extremely thin, and the machinist uses a set of public models for the blue sky. Natural thickness will not be controlled with too much precision. The measured thickness of the notebook is about 25mm , which is a relatively thick one.

In terms of weight, bare metal 2211g , this value does not appear to be very large in a notebook. When you go out, it is relatively easy.

 

Disassemble part:

 

The back is still relatively easy to open, just remove all the screws on the back, you can remove the back plate, see the internal components:

At first glance, the interior looks relatively neat and rarely uses cables. Most of them are completed by connectors. This is a good option for the overall maintenance of the notebook.

The left and right sides of the turbo fan are quite conspicuous and bear the role of cooling the cpu and the graphics card. The heat is discharged from the rear hole.

Copper heat sinks and thermal management cover two important chips - cpu and gpu . In the figure, cpu is on the right and gpu on the left . Dual heat pipes are not a problem for the two of the 6700HQ and GTX 950M .

The memory was originally equipped with a DDR3 1600 8G memory, and an additional one can be added.

Solid state drives come from Lite, 128GB in size. Everyone can think of it as a prototype of Plextor.

Inside the mechanic is a 500G mechanical hard drive that can be used to store other data and games. However, we feel vaguely that if it were replaced with a 1TB hard disk, it might be more popular.


The right side of this hard disk is also empty with an M2 slot. It is also possible to install an M2 device again . The maximum length is limited to 2280 .

Here is the part of the battery. We have no data for the capacity of this battery, but according to our normal usage, we can support the notebook for 3-4 hours.

In addition, we can see that all the interfaces at the back here have their own shields, which have a very good shielding effect for signal interference. The left and right interfaces are also here, and we go back and look at some of the details above. The attention of these small details makes people feel that the mechanic is quite attentive to the normal use of this game in the player's hands.

 

Performance Testing:

 

First of all, let's take a look at all the configuration data of the machine.

Basic information when we have just disassemble generally have learned: 6700HQ the cpu, 8GB DDR3 memory low-voltage version, with dual hard drives. GTX 950M graphics card uses GDDR5 memory, so the 80.2GB/s bandwidth can make this video card play well in mainstream games for a while. The screen resolution is 19201080 .

 

Let's test it. First of all, it must be on 3dmark .

 

The new 3Dmark supports cross-platform testing of desktop and mobile platforms and supports testing of windows , Android , iOS and Windows RT system platforms. And 3Dmark later joined the fire strike Ultra mode, increasing the fire strike 's test resolution to 38,402,160 in order to squeeze more of the more powerful hardware coming out of it.

We use the lower fire strike extreme when testing .

Test score is 1661 points, comparison GTX about 3,259,960, the GTX 950 3121, and GTX 750ti approximately 1900 minutes, GTX 950M standard mechanics F57 mounted approximately horizontally a mid-card, then, for some practical Highly demanding game, can it be competent?

 

Run Call of Duty 12 first .

We set the image settings for Call of Duty 12 as follows:

We set the image as follows: 90% of the rendering resolution, the field of view is adjusted to 80 , and the resolution remains unchanged at 19201080 . The rest of the options maintain some of the high options in the section, not all special effects.

 

We use the scene of the first monitor to measure.

This closes the monitor scene because the scene is large, so the number of frames does not seem particularly high. F57 's performance here is 31fps , roughly playable, so in the cod game, F57 can still maintain a certain degree of game fluency.

 

Next we use another game: "Metal Gear 5 · Phantom Pain" to test.

 

"Metal Gear V : Phantom Pain" is an open-world action adventure game developed by Kojima Studio (now Konami Studio). The game will be used as a sequel to the earlier release of the game "Metal Gear 5 : The Original Burst." The game sets an overhead Cold War world. In addition to the United States and the Soviet Union, the world's pattern is also affected by a weapon called "alloy equipment." The game is based on the adventures of legendary mercenary Big Boss in Afghanistan and Africa, changing the world in the era of vengeance and new threats of revenge.


: "Metal Gear 5 " is not very demanding on the configuration, so in the previous tests, many other graphics cards were able to run at 60fps full frame.

Our F57 test set the image settings used when running this game as above. A small part of it has a medium effect, and the rest has a high effect.

The scene uses the scene that the first chapter dipped into during the day. Most of the time in the scene, the fps is maintained between 45-60fps , and the fps that can be seen more often is about 50fps .

 

Judging from the above two games, mechanic F57 is sufficient for middle-to-high end games. As for other online games and small and medium-sized games, which have less special effects and screen requirements, they are even more difficult to mention.

 

We tested the noise by the way.

 

During the test, the noise meter was about 5cm away from the notebook and the ambient noise was about 40dba .

The first is the situation at the time of standby. The noise during standby is approximately 41.5dba , almost equal to the ambient noise. It shows that in the usual environment, the sound of the machine is still not easy to hear.

The next thing is our noise during the game. Game, our 54dba-60dba between about noise, the main source of noise is the turbine 2 is a rear cooling fan. At this time, people can hear loud noises when they are sitting in front of the machine. Relatively noisy at this time.

 

At this time, the temperature is also higher than usual. At the rear of the turbine fan outlet, when the hand is put up, it can feel obvious heat, and can not stay in this long.

 

The game-based market has now become another blue ocean in the notebook market. The precise positioning of game players and optimization of games have become the only way for various manufacturers to compete for the market.

 

Looking back mechanic F57, on the configuration, the configuration of the F57 may have been one of the top mainstream and even lied to their superiors of this game - 6700HQ quad-core eight thread CPU, equipped with 950M GDDR5 of graphics display performance gave made A certain guarantee. Only the memory is a single 8GB is a bit feel a bit inadequate, but 8GB for the game, in most cases is enough to deal with the market, but also with the SSD + HDD , which in the 6k price, However, it is almost hard to find.

 

On the system side, F57 did not bring any game optimization software. Basically it was bare metal - some people may like it, but some people may find it inconvenient. Single white lighting and a relatively light and concise appearance may appeal to some who do not like to kill Matt. It is not necessarily as advertised as any other game book, but its inside is enough to qualify as a game book.
