My graphics are dead on the beach colorful Colorful iGame980Ti Flames Ares X-6GD5 1216/7010MHz graphics commemorative evaluation

"The Yangtze River waves behind the waves before dying on the beach."

The upgrading of digital products is inevitable. Once the card emperor: 980ti is now also surpassed by the second home, to be a test to stay in memory.

My 980TI is the iGame 980Ti Flame God of War.

Heat dissipation is three 9cm fans, iGame logo is with LED, and is breathing, 8 + 8 pin power supply, overclocking, there will be more protection

The same as the public version of the display interface: 3DP + HDMI + DVI, there is a button to switch the BIOS overclocking button, it can be regarded as standard iGame graphics card.

From the side of the video card or 2 card slot graphics, not fat.

The high-end graphics backplane is, of course, a must-have. Three polymer capacitors can be seen behind the core. Now that small soybeans have basically disappeared, the backplane also has some heat-dissipating openings.

===============================================

The following began to disassemble

Radiator size is 6mm2+8mm4 across the heat pipe and nickel plating.

The most eye-catching should be the power supply, and children's shoes with intensive phobias may be scared.

The 12+2 phase in-line stabilized digital power supply is adopted, and the upper right side is the 2-phase memory power supply.

Maxwell architecture GM200 display core, built 2,816 CUDAs units, 15 years 13 weeks, probably produced in March-April.

Memory comes from Hynix.

IPP pure power inductor. The official introduction has the lowest DC impedance in the same size, up to 5MHz application frequency, high electronic impedance, ultra-low operating temperature bababbaba

You can see each inductor with two polymer tantalum capacitors, mosfet under the heat sink.

Colorful traditional patch inductors are also available.

There is a chip in addition to the mosfet under the heat sink, it should be a PWM digital control chip, but unfortunately did not make clear models.

Let's take a look at the back of the card with the backplane removed. In addition to the ceramic capacitor, there is an on-board indicator at the end.

================================================== =====

Started testing

The approximate configuration is as follows,

CPU: i5-4670K

Motherboard: ASRock Z87 OC Formula

Graphics Card: Colorful iGame 980Ti Flames of the Ares

Cooling: Games will be Blizzard LC240 CPU cooler


SSD: Plextor M6Pro 256G

Installation effect

================================================== =====================

Start the test, 4670k overclocked to 4.2GHz, run sub-reference official media test is still lower, hee hee ~ ~ because it is the old card commemorative test, do not care about these, I really do not knowingly black card this


Theoretical performance test

3DMark Fire Strike Extreme

Because the video card has 2 frequencies, so did the test:

Frequency: 1000MHz; boost frequency: 1076MHz; measured maximum frequency is 1215MHz

Frequency: 1127MHz; Boost frequency: 1216MHz; The highest measured frequency is 1342MHz

3DMark 11 Extreme

Frequency: 1000MHz; boost frequency: 1076MHz; measured maximum frequency is 1215MHz

Frequency: 1127MHz; Boost frequency: 1216MHz; The highest measured frequency is 1342MHz

Heaven Extreme

Directly tested with high

Valley Extreme HD

Also high-frequency test

Here is a summary sheet directly for everyone to watch

Since the cpu is worse, the total score is low, and if it is replaced with 4790k/6700k, the 3dmark score should exceed 8k.

================================================== =======================

Game performance test

Monitor resolution: 1920 x 1200, the monitor is Dell U2412M, rare 16:10, so slightly larger than the resolution of 1080p

The game performance test is divided into two parts. Part of it is the Benchmark that comes with the game. The result is more reliable. The other part is using Frps software to collect, and there will be certain errors in reliability.

Tomb Raider 9

Crysis 3

Island 3 tested the rainy night from the first time. There were no fighting scenes when the number of frames from the time it ran outside to the room.

GAT5

Screen resolution: 2560 x 1440, monitor is SANC E7pro 27, 2k screen

To make a comparison table, "%" is 1440p frames / 1200p frames 100%

You can see that the special effect is basically open to the maximum. In 1200p, there is no problem to reach more than 60 frames. After upgrading to 2k, the average number of frames can only reach the level of about 1200p 70%. To achieve 60 frames, you have to give up some special effects. .

================================================== ==

Temperature power test

In the standby state, the power consumption is about 80w; because the fan does not turn at low temperature, the standby temperature is high, about 48 degrees.

The furmark roast chicken has a relatively high initial frequency. Later, as the temperature rises, the frequency decreases, reaching 84 degrees after 10 minutes, and the platform power consumption is about 370W.

================================================== ============

Last entertaining

Once again, because the cpu dragged its feet, the overall test results were low, but as a commemoration of their own, anyway, it is not the evaluation of the new card, everyone has been a few of the performance of the 980ti.

Rainbow 980ti, the use of materials is very good, but the cooling effect is generally, the water temperature should be lower, after the overclocking material value can be reflected.

But after all it is the old card, and now buy 1070 will no doubt be more appropriate, and power consumption will be lower, support for VR will be better, unless the second-hand price is good, otherwise it is not necessary to buy a generation of graphics card.

Intel's update is slowing down now, z87 looks like it can still support several years, but it should really be upgraded to 4790k.
