On Xinshoubikan installed capacity of several major errors (at) Author: IT168 tomato Updated: 2005-02-18 [IT168 shopping guide] in the "On Xinshoubikan installed capacity of several major errors (on)" a text, DIY burn Friend Club moderator Alexno17 introduces and analyzes four installed misunderstandings that DIY novices may exist when selecting hardware such as processors, graphics cards. This article is mainly for some of these DIY novices holding some of the wrong concepts that may be caused by the possible installation misunderstandings. Misunderstanding 5: Throwing thousands of gold, one step now is now in place, and many friends are still very worse, so they decided to expect huge money to buy computers. This is of course very well understood for the server and a special-purpose computer, but if the price of the "game console" prepared for the game that has not been born, there is no such thing as a "game console" that has not been born. Personally, the current high-end household machine uses P4 2.4C or Athlon64 2800 , 512MB memory, 80-120GB hard drive, 5700/9550 overclocking version of such hardware matching, players who like games can consider choosing geforce 6600GT, Radeon 9800PRO, medium-high-end graphics card, processor grade can also be improved to P4 3.0GHz, Athlon 64 3200 . As for higher configuration, personal feeling is not very meaningful. For example, 1GB of memory is not necessary. Currently, 512MB memory is enough to cope with ordinary family and office applications. As for these things that look beautiful, in addition to the high-end games and test software, there is exceptional performance in high-end games and test software, usually online, play CS, Warcraft and other games and ordinary computers are not the same?
Funny, workmanship, MSI K8N Diamond motherboard to buy a computer, enough for the price of 2,699 yuan, is useful. Blindly pursue a step in place, pursuing that you are not practical, the test score is inefficient. At the same time, it also violates the essence of DIY pursuitability. Misunderstanding Six: Surprise Pursuit of Upgrade Space Don't forget to add: I hope to have a certain upgrade potential. The wish is beautiful, we all want your own love machine for a few years. But in fact, we don't need to deliberately pursue upgrade space. Some friends are not sufficient, but they want to buy high-end processors and motherboards, with very cheap graphics cards, ready to upgrade the graphics for a while. This "upgrade" is not necessary in our opinion - the computer is used, not tossing. Instead of purchasing a deformed configuration, it is not as good as a more balanced computers in the price and specifications, and the picture is comfortable. In general, a high-end configuration of a high-end configuration is no problem in the last two years. Two years later, it is necessary to upgrade the hardware, and to enhance the performance of the configuration, such as adding a memory, change a graphics card, or perform Appropriate overclocking. The upgrade should be a natural thing, not deliberately pursue, and it can't catch up.
At present, AMD's latest Socket 939 interface may be fully replaced by Socket M2 interface next year, especially when the current various hardware specifications are updated, we should not blindly pursue future upgrades. Some people think that the LGA 775 platform is good, Socket 478 is to be eliminated, I am afraid it is difficult to upgrade in the future. In fact, when Socket 478 P4 is really insufficient, the LGA 775 platform is estimated to be eliminated. The Socket 370 of Tu Latin racing, Socket 462 Athlon XP also has the old P4 of Socket 423, don't there still many people now? This is a good prove. Of course, if the conditions are there, it is necessary to properly reserve the upgrade space. For example, some motherboards are only equipped with two memory slots. When you choose them, you should try to use single memory as much as possible. As P4 C, P4 E series processors are preferably used with dual channel DDR memory, and everyone should give priority to the two-channel memory, supported, supported by four memory slots when choosing a supporting motherboard. Only two memory slots, the Supreme IS7-E2 misunderstanding seven: surrounding accessories, compared with the computer host, CRT, speakers, chassis, power, keyboard mouse, etc. in front of DIY newbie, in fact, JS The most profitable place. More importantly, the quality of these accessories directly affects the stability of the entire configuration and the health of the user.
The quality of the navigated nautical cooling prince Diamond 1.3 version 300W power is like power supplies, the power supply does not have to say more about the importance of a computer. Now many chassis comes with the power supply of 300W, in fact, the actual power of the product is only about 200W, and the quality is also uneven. So we strongly recommend that you can purchase a power supply separately. In addition, the price of the chassis is often very high. In fact, if you don't need a power supply, many brand-name chassis can take it less than 150 yuan, count the power supply to independently, and the whole chassis is not big. Misunderstanding 8: Test Scores Description Everything 3Dmark, PCMark is good, you can score your computer. However, it is affected by thousands of years of testing education, so many people think that the score is everything, a good graphics card is to run the high score to give the RMB in the pocket, which is wrong. The previous year has been transmitted out of the display chip manufacturer for 3DMark cheating, which is to a certain extent to cater to consumers "score-supreme" consumption concept. Don't you spend a lot of graphics cards that bought for a big price for a moment when testing? I dare not agree with this view.
The test score is a digital game with a burning friend. It doesn't matter if there is not much sense in the test of ordinary users. In the 3DMark05 test, the standard version of 5700 can only measure 700 points, and the overclocking 9550 can easily get 1000 or even 1200 points. But this also explains what it is, how much is 9550 to 5700? Players who are familiar with hardware know that this is due to the support of the NV3X core to DX9, but in the actual application, the GeForce FX5700 and Radeon 9500 overclocking version can be described as quite, each has a thousand autumn. Practice is the standard for testing truth. We also hope that from now on, it will not be able to hear which friend will say: "Flowering so much money to buy cards, can't measure a high score, really don't value ...".
