Hello everyone, Lin Fei to answer the above questions, notebook cpu replacement tutorial, notebook cpu many people do not know, now let's take a look at it!

How to select various levels of processors?

As we all know, when a product is launched, manufacturers will distinguish it with different configurations and prices in order to share costs and maximize profits. This is particularly evident in notebook products, which have different configurations of processors, graphics cards, memory and hard disk sizes, giving consumers more choices. But it also makes it more difficult for ordinary users to choose. For example, with the same budget, is it cost-effective to buy an i7 processor GTX1050 graphics card or a version of the i5 processor GTX1060 graphics card? So, what kind of processor does it take to buy a laptop? Today, Benshaw will discuss with you the choice of laptop cpu.

In particular, the choice of processors (due to the relatively high market share of notebook products using Intel processors, this article only uses Intel processor products to explain) is even more difficult for novice users. For products that use Intel processors, consumers usually rate them with Core i3, i5, and i7, thinking that i7 is the high-end version, but that's not always the case. There is also a mystery hidden in the name code of the processor.

The core has been updated for so many generations, and now it is the eighth generation. Due to the different positioning and planning of product lines of different manufacturers, notebooks of different generations are also being mixed and shipped. So there are still a large number of notebook products with seventh-or even sixth-generation processors on the market. Coupled with Intel's product segmentation, the distinction between low power consumption, low voltage and standard voltage, and the performance classification of Y, U, H and Q, most consumers are confused. How to choose core i3, i5, i7? What is the difference between i7 6500U and i7 6700HQ? Don't worry, let's take a look at how to choose a processor when buying a laptop.

Clear budget and correct positioning

When buying something, the budget must be done, because if you do it in a way that you have already spent so much money, as long as you add a little more, there will generally be "originally wanted to buy the public, but the Cayenne will have to pay more". Therefore, it is the same to buy a notebook. First, you need to control your budget. Before buying, you should first understand your own needs, uses, dimensions, etc. Then there is the approximate positioning of the product you want to buy, whether it is entry-level, mid-to-high-end, or flagship. Once these are determined, it is much easier for processors (CPU) to filter.

Game products with Intel Core i7 processor GTX 1060 graphics card

Here is a brief reference. For notebooks for office and business use, due to the relatively light workmanship, models of about 5000 yuan on the market can already get a good experience. However, for games, if you want to play most big games and have a good experience, you may need Intel Core i7 processor GTX 1060 graphics card and 8GB memory configuration. This kind of machine costs more than 8000 yuan.

Performance comparison between the sixth and seventh generation i7 standard voltage and low voltage versions (picture from the network)

Let's first look at the main parameters of the processor, such as model, architecture, main frequency, number of cores / threads, and so on. According to the classification of notebook products using Intel processors, the common Core I series has been classified for many years. In terms of performance, we are already familiar with the concept of i7i5i3. We all know that the more cores, the higher the core frequency, the higher the performance. In general, Core is named after four digits followed by an alphabetic suffix to indicate the specific model of the processor. The first digit represents algebra (for example, the second generation is i5 2xxx and the eighth generation is i5 8xxx), and the second to fourth digits are SKU digits. The higher the value, the higher the performance of the processor. For example, i7-7 500 U is better than i7-7 200 U.

If the suffix is U, the product is a low-voltage version. U series is the most mainstream and common type, which is mostly used in office and lightweight products. If the suffix is Y, the product is an ultra-low power Y series, renamed from the Core M series. Due to the low power consumption of TDP (Thermal Planning), there is a large gap between performance and regular Core I. products with HQ and HK suffixes are aimed at games and high-performance users. They are all signs of standard voltage. The former does not support overclocking, while the latter allows users to overclock. The i5 7300HQ and i7 7700HQ are the most widely used processors in mainstream game books on the market.

Choose as needed and pay attention to balance.

Although more powerful processors can help users process forms, load web pages, edit photos and play games faster. However, it should be noted that because laptops are mobile products with built-in batteries, the use of high-performance processors also means increased power consumption and relatively poor battery life. But for users engaged in video production, graphic planning and high-end games, HQ and HK as the follow-up standard voltage processors can provide more powerful performance. Although the range will be a little worse, it is obviously worth it. In addition, due to the stronger performance, more heat will be generated inside the fuselage, but also because of the heat dissipation pressure, notebooks with HQ and HK standard voltage processors are still difficult to be light and thin.

U-series processors are products with average performance and battery life, such as i5-7200U and i5-8250U. For most users who just surf the Internet, watch videos, process tables and documents, occasionally process pictures, and do simple planning, the performance of the U-series processors is enough. Now Inte's eighth-generation Core i5 and i7 processors have increased all cores / threads to 4 cores and 8 threads, which is better at multitasking than the previous generation of Core i5 and i7 processors.

The y series is a pitfall for some users, although

In addition, in addition to Core, Intel has Cy Young and Pentium processors, which are basically low-end entry-level notebook products, which are suitable for users with tight budgets and low performance requirements. can meet the basic functions of web browsing, simple document processing, audio-visual entertainment and so on.

In short, although there are many kinds of notebook processors, manufacturers have been relatively standardized in product naming in recent years, and users are relatively easy to identify. When users need to buy a machine, as long as determine their own use, clear their own budget, according to the need to choose. As for the term "excess performance"? It doesn't exist. After driving a 4.0L turbocharged car and then driving a 1.5L car, you will still feel slow. Of course, those with large emissions always have to pay more money, or the same sentence: clear budget, choose on demand.

At the end of this article, I hope it will be helpful to you.
