The General Star series of seven rainbows has always been synonymous with performance-to-price ratio. In the ultra-low price range of 4000 yuan to 5000 yuan, the star series will also have product arrangements, that is, our protagonist today will star X15 XS 22. At present, it can basically achieve about 4600-4800 yuan on various platforms, and can use the configuration of i7-12650H + RTX 3050, which makes it cost-effective.

CTOnews.com also received i7-12650H + RTX 3050 version of General Star X15 XS 22. In this article, we will evaluate its specific performance in detail, focusing on whether it can play mainstream games and experience 3A masterpieces.

Design Seven Rainbow Star X15 XS 22 is a standard 15.6inch 16:9 game book, the BWH is 360mm long, 250mm wide, high 24.9mm, weighs about 2.5KG, and is regular in size.

The star X15 XS still continues the idea of the national tide of the star series, painting a strong "will" word on the A side. The whole gives people a sense of strength.

Open the B side, is a 1080p 144Hz IPS screen, less color coverage. A low color gamut screen belonging to 45% NTSC. But it's normal at this price. The measured color gamut coverage is 53.7% sRGB, the color gamut volume is 54.9% sRGB, and the brightness is about 250nit.

C side is a RGB backlit keyboard, the key position is very reasonable, the direction key and keypad are taken care of, and the lighting can be customized through the control software. Below the keyboard is a touchpad of medium size and made of plastic.

The D side is made of plastic, with a cushion design and a large area air inlet. The huge copper pipe heat dissipation module can be seen from the hollowed-out bottom cover. We will know the specific heat dissipation design later.

The whole machine has 1 USB2.0+2 USB3.2 (Gen 1) interface, 2 USB Type C (USB3.2Gen 2) a HDMI interface, a set of 3.5mm audio interface, DC power interface and gigabit network port, and a TF card reader. Type-C interface, HDMI interface and miniDP interface can all be used for video output to achieve multi-screen expansion at the same time.

The reason why the price of hardware analysis can be kept so low is largely due to the excellent performance-to-price ratio of the i7-12650H processor. Recently, notebooks with i7-12650H are generally able to achieve amazing prices. At the same time, i7-12650H is a CPU with strong single-core performance, which is also very suitable for game scenarios. In terms of theoretical parameters, Intel Core i7-12650H is a 10-core 16-thread processor, using Alder Lake H core architecture, Intel7 production process, 2.30 GHz main core frequency, single core Rui frequency up to 4.70 GHz, 24MB three-level cache. It has its own nuclei as 64 EU Xe.

In terms of GPU, the X15 XS 22 we have is a RTX 3050 laptop GPU, with a power consumption of 95W. I believe you are already very familiar with this entry-level light chasing only show. It is suitable for experiencing most mainstream games at 1080p resolution, and its high energy efficiency ratio makes it not very hot.

So, will the mold of Star X15 XS be able to move this generation's fully upgraded configuration? Let's take a look at the machine next. As can be seen from the picture below, X15 XS 22 still uses a heat dissipation module with four heat pipes and double fans, and the heat pipe is covered with a layer of copper, which has a certain homogenizing effect, which is stronger than the traditional heat pipe.

Below the heat dissipation module is a memory slot, which comes with 2 DDR4 3200MHz memory with a capacity of 16G. The slot design is convenient for expansion.

The self-contained hard disk is intel's 670p hard disk, which is a middle hard disk of PCIe3.0*4, and the particles are QLC particles. It is worth mentioning that the star X15 XS 22 has reserved an extra M.2 position, so if you are not satisfied with the speed and capacity, you can expand the capacity by yourself.

How on earth will the performance of the cooling system of X15 XS 22 be released? We then use AIDA64 for single-baking FPU,15 minutes, the CPU temperature is stable at 89 ℃, and the CPU power consumption is about 70W, which can completely release the performance of i7-12650H.

Then we use FurMark doughnuts to bake for GPU,15 minutes, the core temperature is stable at 75.5 ℃, the power consumption is stable at 95W preset power consumption, and there is no problem with performance release.

Next, we run the above two software at the same time to simulate the maximum pressure and run the double baking for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the CPU stabilized at 27W and 68 ℃, the GPU stabilized at 84W and 75.3 ℃, and the performance release of the whole machine was about 110W.

In terms of running points, RTX 3050 basically released all its performance, and 3DMark TimeSpy's GPU theory score reached 5248, which means it can play most games with 1080p high definition.

In R20, which represents the theoretical performance of CPU, the scores of single thread and multi-thread are 684and 5535 respectively. In R23, the score of single core is 1792 and that of multi-core is 13731. The score of single core is extremely outstanding, and the score of multi-core is not bad. It can basically be understood as i7 single-core performance and i5 multi-core performance.

The QLC hard disk of Intel 670p is well-behaved, and those with performance requirements can expand the high-performance hard disk by themselves. now the price of the hard disk is also quite low, and there is absolutely nothing to lose from the expansion.

The memory is the standard 3200MHz DDR4 notebook memory, which can be expanded by itself if necessary.

Finally, we also tested the CrossMark, which represents the comprehensive office performance, and the measured score is 1784, which is enough to meet the needs of the office, and can also do some simple creative production work.

What the author is most curious about in the actual measurement of the game is, to what extent has this product of the game with a stall of 4000 yuan developed? Can 1080p play high-quality 3A masterpieces? Therefore, we will test all the following games with 1080p resolution + high quality +, and with DLSS, we will drive to the quality file DLSS.

First of all, the e-sports game, we selected "League of Legends", "CS:GO", "PUBG", "forever robbed forever" and "APEX Legend" five mainstream e-sports games for testing. Measured in the "CS:GO", running BenchMark can reach an average of 324 frames, which can run all over this 144Hz electronic competition screen.

On the side of "PUBG", it is measured that it can run up to 126frames under the highest picture quality, which can satisfy the high-frame play of the highest picture quality. If you want to play with 144 frames running full of video games, you can consider adjusting it to the commonly used "three extremes" picture quality.

In the domestic martial arts Battle Royale Games "forever robbed forever", the highest picture quality + quality file DLSS can reach an average of about 81 frames, the game experience is very smooth.

In "APEX Legend," the average number of frames reaches 104, and the game also supports NVIDIA Reflex low latency, which can be turned on to further reduce shooting delay.

"League of Legends" tests the single-core performance of CPU, while the powerful performance of i7-12650H makes the star X15 XS more than 220frame fun.

From our above tests, the vast majority of e-sports games can meet the 1080p high frame to play, and the picture quality is also the highest picture quality, it seems that the 4000 yuan price of the game cost-effective ratio is really very good. Next, let's test some mainstream 3A games. In Tomb Raider: shadow, under 1080p high special effects, the number of frames is as high as 77 frames, so it's not a problem to play. The data mainly shows that GPU is limited, which means that CPU does not have bottlenecks.

In the classic 3A masterpiece "the Wild Dart 2: redemption", the star X15 XS 22 also showed good results, running to an average of 78 frames at 1080p high-definition, and the play experience was very smooth.

But objectively speaking, the RTX 3050 laptop GPU is very difficult to challenge the highest quality 3A light chase, so in "Control", we turn on the highest picture quality but turn off the light chase, so we can achieve an average of 78 frames.

In the fully upgraded classic 3A masterpiece "Wizard 3", the complex scene with high-quality light can also reach an average of 69 frames, meeting the requirements of smooth play.

Finally, let's take a look at the most stressful 3A masterpiece, cyber punk 2077. Just chase don't think about it, if you turn on the default high-definition quality, running BenchMark can reach an average of about 59 frames, and the overall game experience is relatively smooth.

Overall, the star X15 XS can run most of the 3A masterpieces perfectly under 1080p, and they are all of high picture quality. As long as you are good at using DLSS technology, you can achieve smooth play in a variety of scenarios.

In summary, with the release of the RTX 40 series notebook computer, the X15 XS series of the Seven Rainbow Star series has now been reduced to about 4500 yuan. From our tests today, it can indeed play mainstream e-sports games at high frames at a resolution of 1080p, and it can also play high-quality 3A masterpieces with more than 60 frames. For cash-strapped players, such a cheap but practical game could not have been better.

In terms of price, the version of i7-12650H + RTX 3050 Laptop GPU is currently about 4600-4800 yuan on all major platforms, and the performance-to-price ratio is quite outstanding. At present, this model also happens to be participating in JD.com 's 10 billion subsidy, so if you are interested, you might as well find out.
