The computer is assembled in 2009, i5 generation 750 processor, 8G memory, HD6850 graphics card, usually play Civilization 5 and World of Warcraft in peacetime, recently discovered that playing 7.0 eve special effects or under the card, it moved the idea of ​​upgrading. The memory is 2G x 4, and there is no place to buy it again. I also feel that 8G is enough. The processor also feels okay, but also to change the motherboard with a change, with the new assembly is also no difference, it is not possible to look at the first overclocking, I heard this i5 still can over look. In accordance with the principle of spending less money and more, we decided to change the following three items:
Graphics card:The computer power is 400W, only one with the 6pin power cord, not (mei) want to (qian) for power, so the choice of a smaller range. Entangled about R9 370X 4G and GTX950 2G, two prices are the same, originally intended to 370X, after all, memory large, or 256bit width. However, I heard that Blizzard's game is not very friendly to the A-card, and he has never used the N-card to try it. As for why I didn't add a little money to buy 960 or 1060, I think the old machine in 2009 was not necessary, and 960 is generally about 1400. The extra 400 yuan is better than a SSD. Finally set this:
hard disk:Select video card also looked at the evaluation, the solid state is too lazy to study particle controller what, I can not use the difference, direct JD, Toshiba brand ok, 240G enough, 3 year warranty can, 399 price is also OK, For it, 15 seconds to finalize:
CPU cooler:Did not think about the radiator thing, but Lu master alarm that the CPU temperature is almost 90, removed to find no silicone grease above, but also all gray, distressed i5 in this environment also adhere to work, And I still want to overclock it. . The heart said to buy a little expensive (100) of the hard work, it turned out that the chassis is too small, what cool stuff can not go in. . Finally, I only bought a mini version:
installation:The original configuration and Lu masters run points:
Began to tear down, the old fan, weather-beaten. .
Sapphire HD6850 1G: Looking very new, but unfortunately the era of rapid changes, the retired, in fact, I quite like this piece.
New family portrait:
The video card component is quite full, pressing hands; the heat sink is buckled, to make a great deal of strength to buckle, I am afraid that the motherboard is crushed, or the screw is more convenient; the hard disk did not give screws, there is no data line, thanks to Some inventory; also bought a turn 3.5 bracket, and later found that the power cord is not long enough to throw the drive above, and save trouble. Complete the picture. By the way, remove the remaining bezel next to the graphics card to enhance ventilation and heat dissipation. Please ignore the traces and dust.
Reboot the system. Previously purchased genuine win10, specifically called to ask Microsoft customer service, customer service that as long as the motherboard did not change should be automatically activated. It turns out to be true. Once again Lu master, graphics card 8w points should be normal level, disk performance has also increased nearly 3 times. As for other software for running sub-stations, many online evaluations are not enough.
World of Warcraft, picture quality to open high, anti-aliased 8x, 40 frames, feel OK, real play and then drop some special effects.
Graphics card: It can fully meet my requirements. We haven't tested large stand-alone games. We don't know how the 370X performs.
Hard disk: switch machine, loading the game is significantly faster.
Radiator: The temperature shows 45 or so, which is 5-10 degrees lower than before. It seems that there is still a certain effect. Overclocking is tried over time.
The overall effect is satisfactory. It is estimated that the frequency of my computer will be another 2 to 3 years. A total of ¥1433.80 was spent for this time. Thanks to LD adults for approval and lending, I know that I have taken a big step away from PS4+VR.
