Choose left or right? I7 7700HQ+GTX1050TI game instinct hard I7 7700K desktop?


Since the release of Intel's seventh-generation CPU and Z270 chipset, they have always seen the information of the desktop version of the I7 7700K, but its mobile version of the main I7 7700HQ has been hard to see, and NVIDIA has also inserted their GTX1050TI. Into the I7 7700HQ notebook mold, as a general-purpose notebook mold exists, rumored mobile version of the GTX1050TI even better than the desktop version of the graphics card GTX1050TI to force today to look at I7 7700HQ+GTX1050TI this replace I7 6700HQ + GTX960M notebook mold configuration!

In order to accurately get this laptop configuration data, then I chose a ITX platform I7 7700K + GTX1050TI configuration to compare tests to see how much the notebook can achieve desktop performance.

This time, the I7 7700HQ increased its basic frequency from 2.6G to 2.8G in 6700HQ, while the maximum core frequency was increased from 3.5G to 3.8G. The cache and power consumption did not change, but the 7700K base frequency of the desktop is 4.2G. The frequency of 4.5G is still relatively large. Do not talk nonsense, out of the box first!

After the speed was transferred to the Hyundai T1 purchased last year, I entered the Hyundai T2, without it, the price is cheaper than the mechanical revolution, the same quality, in fact, the most important quality of the notebook is the mold, and now are all OEM ODM generation Workers, find the same factory OEM stick a different brand, put in different channels, chant different channel operating costs!



In terms of appearance, there is nothing different from the Naruto Diamond T1.

Behind the notebook is still two cooling grille design, which is the IO interface area, DC power interface, HDMI, RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port, USB3.0 two, USB3.1 Type-c one.

Open screen

Thanks to the use of a 15.6 FHD IPS from LG, the effect of the screen can also be achieved.

From the perspective of viewing, this IPS is actually in general, which is related to the backlight design of the thin layer of the notebook. The RGB keyboard was well received, and this generation of mold RGB keyboards became standard.

Top cover LED LOGO


Front left and right stereo speakers

Back left and right cooling grille

The dismantling of the back shell is very simple and the feeling is designed to facilitate the upgrade.

The original memory is actually the Kingston DDR4 2400 8GB, I'm too lazy to toss a direct buy, get together 16GB


This is the same thing as Jingdong.

The original SSD is rarely seen. It is Hynix's original PC300 NVME 256GB, and the PCIE3.0X4 M.2 interface supports NVME.

Single-sided particles

Remove the sticker paper and you can see that Hynix products are all from the flash cache master, and the flash memory particles are the 16NM MLC prints from Hynix.

Wireless network card is INTEL 8265

Unplug the memory SSD card, you can see the keyboard cable

To do the next dismantling must pull out the cable, in fact, the following dismantling process is difficult, the participants are not difficult, do not imitate.

The mold will continue to be dismantled and need to be removed under the screen shaft cover

Then drop two cooling grilles

After removing all the screws on the back, remove the keyboard cover by peeling off from the edge with a business card.

The keyboard cover and the pointing board are all arranged on the motherboard PCB

The following is the two cooling grilles that can be seen facing the back of the dual fan design

Take off the black tape and you can see the motherboard

Continue to disassemble the motherboard, you can see the complete cooling mode, dual fan four heat pipe

Remove the heat sink and the Queen can see the whole picture of the motherboard

The first is the mobile version of the GTX1050TI core, N17P-G1-A1, which is significantly different from the GP107-400-A1 core number of the desktop version of the GTX1050TI. The GPU core uses three-phase power supply and has one phase of memory. The memory uses four 32-bit Samsung GDDR5s with 1GB capacity to form a 4GB 128-bit GDDR5 memory bank.

The I-7700HQ is a BGA solderable non-replaceable motherboard. The core of the I-7700HQ is also rectangular. Like the lower square PCH South Bridge, there is no logo that clearly identifies the model. The CPU power supply design adopts a 5-phase power supply design, in which the core three phases have two phases. In fact, the current software still can not identify the PCH South Bridge, but I suspect that not HM170 is HM175.

BIOS identification

The following compares my competitor desktop platform:

Motherboard: ASUS Z170I GAMING PRO

CPU: I7 7700K

NVME SSD: SKhynix PC300 256GB

SATA SSD: Kingston UV400 240GB



Memory: Kingston HYPER X DDR3333 8GBX2


In order to compare the fairness of the test, I forced this pair of memory to run at 2400 17 17 17 39 2T, which is consistent with the notebook memory running frequency.

MAXSUN GTX1050TI 4GB GDDR5 Desktop Edition

This is a GTX1050TI without external power supply


Test Power: Cool V850

Radiator: Cool Blizzard T400 plus Eclipse

Established core platform

Below I started to compare tests

1, CPU identification section

I7 7700HQ GPUZ parameters, 14NM process, KABY LAKE core, quad-core eight-wire 2.8G, maximum core frequency 3.8G

It can be seen from the AIDA64 detection that the main frequency is 2.8, the maximum quad core frequency is 3.4, and the single core maximum core frequency is 3.8.

I7 7700K GPUZ parameters, 14NM process, KABY LAKE core, quad-core and eight-wire 4.2G, maximum Turbo 4.5G

It can be seen from the AIDA64 detection that the main frequency is 4.4, the maximum quad core frequency is 4.4, and the single core maximum core frequency is 4.5.

2. PCH South Bridge Recognition

PCH South Bridge uses a very strange code IDA152, which is different from our common HM170, so it is suspected to be HM175.

Z170I GAMING PRO is no suspense

3, memory parameter synchronization adjustment

The I7 7700HQ memory controller natively supports DDR2400, and Kingston's DDR2400 memory can be seen running on the dual channel 2400 17 17 17 39 2T.

In order to test the fairness, I reduced the DDR3333 frequency of the 17 7700K platform to 2400 17 17 17 39 2T to synchronize with the notebook.

4, nuclear detection

I7 7700HQ is the HD630, this is consistent with the I7 7700K, in fact, for the sole significant this is nothing to say.

5, CPUZ performance test

So for the I7 7700HQ rough test can also be seen, multi-threading is equivalent to 87% of I7 6700K, 3.4G and 4.2G quad-core full load gap is still an objective reality, if the calculation of the frequency ratio of 34/42 in 80 %, but this extra 7% is the gap between process steps.

The I7 7700K is equivalent to about 114% of the 6700K. According to the score of this test, the multithreading performance of the I-7700HQ is 27% higher.

6, memory read and write performance

I7 7700HQ memory dual channel 2400 C17 read and write at 3.23W and 3.5W, delay 69.5ns

I7 7700K memory dual-channel 2400 C17 read and write at 3.37W and 3.48W, delay 63.0ns.

The gap does exist, but it is not great.

7, M.2 NVME read and write

I7 7700HQ Platform M2 Hynix PC300 256GB NVME Score 1794

I7 7700HQ platform M2 Hynix PC300 256GB NVME score 1844, in fact, this gap can be purely considered to the CPU main band to the 4K read and write BOOST effect, in addition to the 4K read and write changes with the frequency difference almost unchanged, The NVME disk performance of PCH South Bridge is basically the same.

8, SATA disk performance

I7 7700HQ Platform SATA Kingston UV400 240GB Test Score 1002

I7 7700HQ platform SATA Kingston UV400 240GB test score 1053

The result is consistent with the previous NVME test. The CPU clock frequency plays a major role in 4K read and write operations. The actual PCH disk performance gap is not large.

9, GPU recognition

This mobile version of the GTX1050TI really surprised me, the desktop version of the TMUS is 48, mobile version increased to 64, and the core frequency is directly on the desktop version of the 1293 increased by 200MHz, while the BOOST frequency is from the desktop version On the basis of 1392 increased to 1620MHz, while other parameters basically did not change.

Desktop version of MAXSUN GTX1050TI 4GB GDDR5

10, 3DMARK test

I7 7700HQ+GTX1050TI

TIME SPY: 2528

FIRE STRIKE ULTRA:1891

FIRE STRIKE EXTREME: 3637

FIRE STRIKE:6982

TIME SPY 99.4% passed in the stress test, FIRE STRIKE ULTRA passed 97%

The following is the I7 7700K+GTX1050TI platform

TIME SPY: 2446

FIRE STRIKE ULTRA:1783

FIRE STRIKE EXTREME: 3481

FIRE STRIKE: 6731

In the stress test, 99.5% of TIME SPY passed and 98.7% of FIRE STRIKE ULTRA passed.

Obviously, it can be seen that even with a 27% multi-threaded CPU performance gap, the inherent strength of the graphics card cannot be concealed. All 3DMARK results also indicate the problem. In the game test, the I7 7700HQ and the mobile version of the GTX1050TI are still better than the I7 7700K. Plus the desktop version of the MAXSUN GTX1050TI. The CPU gap in game performance is not enough to flatten the gap on the GPU. Therefore, when you play games, you blindly emphasize that the CPU is incomplete, and a modest increase in GPU investment will be more obvious than the investment in the CPU!

Then compare the test is completed, go back to this notebook mold itself to see the cooling and panel effects.

The panel used by this T2 is LG LP156WF6-SPK3

Screen library data is LG original AH-IPS screen, 6bit panel, FHD resolution, contrast 700:1, here also can be confused about the reason I just viewed the general angle, the data display is up and down, left and right viewing angles are For a minimum of 80 degrees, this is a different concept from the maximum 178 degrees of viewable angles advertised by manufacturers.

In terms of heat dissipation, the temperature of the I-7700HQ does decrease

AIDA64 FPU single copy CPU, FURMARK copy GPU, dual full load in the case of 15 minutes, CPU 77 degrees, GPU 62 degrees, to be honest, for a laptop, the full load pager temperature is very satisfactory, If you replace the I7 6700HQ and GTX960M at this time on the cooling of this mold has been properly CPU near 90 degrees, and the GPU will be above 75 degrees, and I7 7700HQ with GTX1050TI mobile version of the configuration makes people feel relieved too Too much, let me feel very sensible to make a decision to replace the T7 game book of I7 6700HQ and GTX960M!

Then I also tested whether there is a need to replace the memory.

I used a pair of Kingston's Hyper X DDR4 2400 8GBX2 memory C14


The original Kingston memory is DDR4 2400 C17


After installing it, I measured the memory read and write gap

Kingston's Hyper X DDR4 2400 8GBX2 Memory C14

The original Kingston memory is DDR4 2400 8GBX2 C17

After the change, this gap of less than 10% in memory read and write gaps makes it impossible for me to find a reason to change the memory. After all, it is a pair of memory swapping, but the price difference between the PK and the hackers is not big. 4GB this small capacity to replace 16GB large capacity, the note is worth considering.

I ended up wondering if both M2s support NVME, so I did this test! Two M2s are populated with NVME Liteon T10 SSD and then enter the BIOS to see the identification.

It can be seen that both NVME SSDs are perfectly identifiable

Then I discovered the CSM settings. I am very curious to try and see if the latest ME build in the BIOS supports NVME RAID 0, so I opened the CSM.

Then SATA selects RAID, restarts, and then goes in. IRST option is still not found. This means that this notebook is not RAID 0, and it is allowed 2 NVME SSDs and 1 SATA SSD.

Finally, it is said that the RGB control software that comes with the book is still very good.

Keyboard RGB light

to sum up:

In the past, this game was completely incompetent with desktop computers. Because its temperature was doomed to weakness, the higher the game is, the more it resembles a dog. It's like pity that the tasteless food is abandoned, and it eventually forces people to return to the desktop. Go, but I7 7700HQ this generation of CPU with GTX1050TI people seemingly saw the dawn of the game, the temperature control is very good, mobile version of the GTX1050TI performance completely suppressed desktop version GTX1050TI can not look up, this configuration allows people to play the game When will eliminate the fear of temperature, let me feel abandoned I7 6700HQ+GTX960M so no regrets, not to mention the performance has improved, that is, no increase in the temperature of this drop will make me tempted, that the game hard resistance desktop In fact, the machine is a joke, but for the sake of playing games, the two platforms in the game more profitable or the game. When the mobile version of the GTX1050TI overtakes the desktop version, I immediately feel that the desktop version of the 1050TI is tasteless, at least this generation of mobile version in the absence of the code M, people think that old Huang really kind enough once.

Then we calculate the price of a desktop computer with such a gaming performance:

CPU: The price of an I7 7700 is around 2000

GPU: MAXSUN GTX1050TI 4GB GDDR5 at around 1200

Memory: DDR4 2400 8GBX2 around 800 yuan

NVME SSD: An INTEL 600P 256GB with a performance slightly lower than Hynix PC300 256GB is priced at around 650 yuan

Motherboard: The most common B250 motherboard Jingdong flat 650 yuan

Radiator: Just pick a 50 bucks

Chassis: Just pick a 100 yuan

Power: 350W 200 yuan

Such a set of short-circuited hosts is at 5,650 yuan, and you still have one monitor and one keyboard and mouse. Both use the worst 650 bucks of 21.5-inch 1080P TN screen and 50 sets of ordinary keyboard and mouse, so it is 6250 yuan. If you choose a favorite chassis, a 400W gold power supply, and an IPS FHD monitor that you feel comfortable with, then break 7,000 blocks per minute, then in the face of a very similar equivalently configured game book, you will How to choose is indeed a very difficult problem.


Now talk about some of the disadvantages of using this game:

1, 4400MA battery in fact for this book is to complete the portability is not enough, so you do not carry a 150W power adapter is not possible, this level of the game's mobile portability does not work It is possible to put a compact mobile game at home.

2. According to the truth, HM175 or HM170, the ME module in the BIOS with IRST, should be able to set up NVME RAID. Although it is not very important, it is not safe, but it always feels uncomfortable.

3, this mold may match exactly 1050TI with FHD just balance, but with the 2K screen, 1050TI immediately tasteless, so this mold can not be too effective performance model out.
