Hello everyone, I dream of being a pig. Today I bring you the experience of using a Thor notebook.
Preface
As a cost-effective processor chip, Intel Core i5-11300H has been exposed to the present, and more and more models have begun to use this processor.
Based on Tiger Lake H35, 4 cores and 8 threads, the basic core frequency speed depends on the TDP setting, which can vary from 2.6GHz (28 W TDP) to 3.1GHz (35 W), Single-core and dual-core boosts can reach 4.4 GHz under load, and all four cores can reach 4 GHz.
The Thor IGER S1 tested today is a high-performance thin and light notebook with a Intel Core i5-11300H.
Unboxing and design
The box of Thor IGER S1 adopts a very elegant and concise design. Maybe many people know Thor because of game-related products. From game books and games From mouse, game browser to peripheral headsets, seats, VR glasses, etc., Raytheon has launched a lot of products, and among them, gaming notebooks include two series of professional gaming notebooks and thin, high-performance notebooks.
However, this IGER S1 belongs to Raytheon's new thin and light notebook series in order to open up the thin and light notebook market. The Chinese name "Yige" is derived from "not sticking to one pattern".
The appearance of the new IGER S1 is a new glacier blue body design.Side A and Side C are made of aluminum alloy. Side A uses an integrated stamping process, and the surface of the case is sandblasted. The overall appearance is completely free from the flamboyant design of Thor's game book.
The front of the case has no extra design except for the exclusive "IGER" logo in the center, which looks very simple and generous.
A cooling fan is arranged on both sides of the bottom shell, and the middle area is a large cooling hole.
The screen hinge position is also designed with the air outlet of the cooling fan. From the perspective of the heat dissipation layout, this machine should adopt a high-specification heat dissipation design with dual fans and dual heat pipes. Intel Core i5-11300H can have a stable 35W power release to make full preparations.
Thor IGER S1 has a rich interface design on both sides of the fuselage. From left to right on the right are 3.5mm 2-in-1 audio ports, USB3.2 Gen2 Type-C ports, and USB3.2 Gen1 USB-A port, standard HDMI port and power port, the power button is designed on the left side of the power port.
On the left side of the fuselage are security keyholes, RJ45 network ports, USB3.2 Gen1 USB-A ports, SD card readers and Thunderbolt 4 ports.
Intel Core i5-11300H adds support for PCIe 4 and Thunderbolt 4.Therefore, all notebook computers with this processor have added Thunderbolt 4 interface, which is undoubtedly good news for users who need high-speed file transfer and 8K output.
In addition, the design of the SD card reader in the body is undoubtedly very convenient for users like me who often need to read photos.
Thor IGER S1 uses a 16:9 14.1-inch IPS screen with a resolution of 1920*1080 and a 100% sRGB high color gamut .
The left and right sides of the screen are ultra-narrow bezels, and the upper part is a narrow bezel design, which allows users to get a larger screen-to-body ratio. The overall display effect is very good.
A 720P camera and light sensor are built in the middle of the top of the screen, and the left and right sides are arrayed MICs.
This notebook computer uses a standard full-size keyboard with moderate key travel and fast rebound speed. Compared with most thin and light notebooks, this keyboard input feel of Raytheon IGER S1 It's still pretty good.
is also equipped with a larger touchpad, and the overall control feel is good.
The thickness of the Thor IGER S1 is 17.6mm,The weight is 1.4kg, because this laptop is equipped with very rich expansion interfaces, so this weight should be considered relatively light.
Disassembly
From the dismantling situation, the Thor IGER S1 does use a dual-fan dual-bottom turbo fan design, and a high-specification turbo fan design with a dual-fan and dual-bottom heat pipe. The air is sucked in and then discharged from the air outlet at the screen shaft to form a good convection heat dissipation effect.
and you can also see that this series has reserved space for the design of discrete graphics cards. There is a blank BGA solder joint on the motherboard PCB. This is for the Nvidia mobile version of the GeForce GTX1650 discrete graphics card. The video memory and power supply are reserved. In addition, the set of heat pipes and fans on the left will also provide heat dissipation for the graphics card.
A single 512GB SSD, supporting NVMe 1.3/PCIe 3.0 X4 specifications.
INTEL AX201 WiFi6 Gigabit wireless network card, supports Wi-Fi 6 specification (892.11 AX), 2.4GHz and 5GHz dual band, the highest speed is 2.4Gbps, and integrates the Bluetooth 5.1 protocol.
Two Kintigo 8G DDR4 3200MHz memory modules form a 16G dual channel.
15.2V 49Wh large capacity lithium ion battery pack.
running score test
In order to better test the performance of this laptop, set the computer to performance mode in CONTROL CENTER.
Use Master Lu to view the configuration of this laptop in detail.
CPU: Intel Core i5-11300H.
Memory: Kingtike 16G DDR4 3200MHz.
hard disk: 512GB NVMe SSD.
network card: Intel WiFi-6 AX201 160MHz.
Although Master Lu is also called the Master of Entertainment, it is okay to run the score as a reference. The overall performance score of this machine is 795165 points.
which scored 445374 points for CPU, 106100 points for graphics card, 133779 points for memory, and 109912 points for hard disk.
Through CPU-Z you can see the Code Name of Intel Core i5-11300H: Tiger Lake-U,The core of the H35 series of processors continues to use the core of the TGL-U series, increasing the TDP to 35W.
CPU-Z Run the benchmark single-core and multi-core performance of the processor, single-core 527 points, multi-core 2640 points.
AVX2 instruction set test.
AIDA64 memory performance data.
The read and write speed of the hard disk run with CrystalDiskMark, among which the read speed is 1910 and the write speed is 1550. The read and write speed of this hard disk is relatively average.
3DMARK 11 performance test.
PCMARK 10 test, a total score of 4779 points, a score of 9556 for common basic functions, a score of 6514 for productivity, and a score of 4760 for digital content creation.
Use MSI Kombustor's CPU Burner for stress test.
Use HWinfo to monitor processor power consumption and frequency during the test,It can be seen that the current CPU is basically in full power working state.
Use Master Lu to control and monitor the current CPU temperature , CPU temperature 67℃, CPU core temperature 66℃, CPU package temperature 69℃, the overall temperature is pretty good, indicating this notebook The heat dissipation design of the computer is indeed very powerful.
After a long time baking machine , tested with an infrared thermal imager, you can see the surface temperature of the machine. The highest temperature of the keyboard position is 30.9℃, and the highest temperature of the back bottom shell is 38.7 Celsius, the overall temperature situation is very good.
During the baking process, when the fan is running at full speed, the operating noise is 63.1dB. This noise is relatively loud, but it is difficult to experience such extreme work in normal use. In the state, the fan will not continue to run at high speed, so the overall operating noise will be reduced a lot.
Some people may wonder how much improvement Intel Core i5-11300H has compared to Intel Core i5-10300H, which can be seen from the comparison of core parameters and performance. , 11300H has a big lead.
game experience
The Iris Xe Graphics core of the Thor IGER S1 notebook also highlights the huge changes brought about by the new architecture.Therefore, this notebook runs most games that do not require too much hardware without pressure. I tried to play "CS:GO" and "League of Legends", and there was no problem at all.
Summary
In general, the Raytheon IGER S1 is a thin and light notebook with a high cost performance. In appearance, this machine is simple and generous, and the overall appearance is more refined; in terms of configuration, this machine has 16GB DDR4 3200MHz dual-channel memory, 512GB NVMe SSD, 14-inch 1920×1080 resolution 100% sRGB high color gamut screen , And the ThunderboltTM 4 interface with a bandwidth of up to 40Gbps, all belong to the current mainstream configuration; in terms of performance, this laptop is not used for some daily design, video editing work or playing some hardware requirements. Large-scale games that are too high are not problematic.
If you want to say that it is not enough, this machine is not designed with fingerprint recognition, which is a small regret.
