AMD Ryzen 7000 processor based on the 5nm process Zen4 architecture has been fully launched, and the upgraded Ryzen 7000 must be matched with a brand new 600 series motherboard. The X670 AORUS ELITE AX (hereinafter referred to as X670 AX) under Gigabyte is the best match for Ryzen 7000, whether it is luxurious materials, exquisite design, excellent expansion and ease of use. So, for users who need to upgrade their computers, what are the advantages of Ryzen 7000 with X670 Iwal AX? Let's take a look at our detailed analysis.
Zen4 frequency increases dramatically TDP, X670 AX power supply strong heat dissipation and stable
Zen4 architecture brings 13% IPC improvement, the maximum acceleration frequency is increased to 5.7GHz, and the maximum single-core performance is improved by 29%
Zen4 compared with Zen3 in the same frequency situation. Thanks to the industry-leading 5nm process, Zen4 can provide acceleration frequencies up to 5.7GHz, and the single-core performance has achieved up to 29%. At the same time, Zen4 also added support for AVX-512, and AMD means that the Zen4 processor will not downgrade the frequency when executing the AVX-512 instruction set. In general, thanks to the energy efficiency advantages of the 5nm process, Zen4 is 62% higher than Zen3 under the same performance; while Zen4 is 49% higher than Zen3 under the same power consumption. This upgrade range can be said to be quite powerful.
However, while the performance of the Zen4 architecture Ryzen 7000 processor has soared, the performance of TDP has also increased significantly. As can be seen from the table, the TDP of the two Ryzen 7000s with dual CCDs has been increased from 105W of the previous generation to 170W, and the dessert-grade Ryzen 5 7600X has also been increased from 65W of the previous generation to 105W. This puts higher requirements on the power supply capacity and stability of the motherboard.
Gigabyte X670 AORUS ELITE AX (hereinafter referred to as X670 AX) is equipped with 16+2+2 phase digital power supply. The 16-phase processor uses a 70A MOSFET for power supply, and the model is Infineon XDPE192C3, which is enough to meet the power supply needs of the flagship Ryzen 7000 processor.
In addition to the luxurious power supply materials of VRM, the X670 Eagle AX also equipped the VRM circuit with super thick and built-in 8mm heat pipes with a heat dissipation armor (full coverage heat sink + extended heat sink) and provides excellent heat dissipation efficiency with high-quality thermal pad . Use the Ryzen 9 7950X test machine to use the Cinebench R23 high school entrance examination machine for 30 minutes, and the VRM MOS temperature of the X670 Xiaodiu AX is even only 46℃! It can be seen how powerful its cooling armor is. It can be easily suppressed with the Ryzen 7000 top flagship, so enthusiast players can use it with confidence.
X670 Xiaodiao AX has excellent electrical performance. Zen4 is easily matched with high-frequency DDR5 memory
Ryzen 7000 is only compatible with DDR5 memory, and supports AMD's EXPO technology specially launched for "one-click overclocking" of DDR5 memory, greatly increasing the memory frequency of and reducing memory latency to obtain a better gaming experience. At the same time, AMD official also stated that when using DDR5 6000, the memory controller of Ryzen 7000 is exactly 1 to 1, and it has the best delay performance at this time, so it is best to use Ryzen 7000 with DDR5 6000 memory.
. In the memory support part, the X670 Eagle AX not only optimizes the wiring, but also comes with an SMD patch process slot and an 8-layer 2-ounce copper PCB. Therefore, it has outstanding electrical performance, excellent high-frequency adaptability, and easily supports DDR5 6000+ memory. At the same time, the motherboard BIOS also provides dual support for XMP and AMD EXPO memory. In addition, the BIOS of the X670 Iwal AX also provides "low latency support" and "high bandwidth support", which can further improve memory performance, and the actual measurement can reduce latency by up to 3ns and increase bandwidth by 12%.
We use the Ryzen 9 7950X with dual CCD architecture to test memory performance with X670 Iwal AX. As can be seen from the figure, this combination can easily hold DDR5 6000, and the effects of "low latency support" and "high bandwidth support" are very significant. The actual measurement has achieved higher bandwidth and lower latency, and the latency has even been reduced to 61.4ns. We manually set the memory frequency to DDR5 6400, and can be used stably without modifying any parameters and voltage. At this time, the delay is even reduced to 60.3ns, which is amazing! It can be seen that to perfectly release the powerful memory performance of Ryzen 7000, the X670 Iwallow AX with excellent electrical performance and well-designed design is a very suitable choice.
SSD expansion to the future! X670 Xiaodiu AX upgraded PCIe 5.0 SSD is very reliable
We know that Ryzen 7000 provides up to 24 PCIe 5.0 channels, so in terms of specifications, the 600 series motherboard supports direct PCIe 5.0×4 M.2 sockets. In addition to the onboard PCIe 5.0 graphics card slot, the X670 AX also provides a PCIe 5.0×4 M.2 socket with SMD patch technology and 3 PCIe 4.0×4 M.2 sockets, and is covered with super large cooling armor, fully ensuring that the high-speed SSD is stable and cannot lose speed. At the same time, the X670 AX also provides Gigabyte's unique EZ-Latch tool-free quick disassembly design, which can easily disassemble the graphics card and install and disassemble the SSD with one click.
Judging from the AORUS Gen5 1000 SSD test results revealed by Gigabyte, the reading and writing can exceed 10,000 MB/s, and the performance is significantly higher than that of PCIe 4.0 SSD. The X670 Eagle AX natively supports the processor to directly output PCIe 5.0×4 SSD. Of course, there will be no obstacles in future upgrades. At the same time, the X670 Eagle AX also equipped high-speed SSDs with strong enough cooling armor, and continuous transmission will not drop speed.
Ryzen 7000 has been released in place, and the upgrade effect is obvious.
Having said so much, what is the actual effect of the combination of X670 Immortal AX and Ryzen 7000? How much improvement is compared to the previous generation? From the benchmark test, we can see that the performance of the Ryzen 5 7600X on the X670 Iwallow AX is very good. All single-core and multi-core scores have greatly improved compared to the previous generation Ryzen 5 5600X. To achieve this, the powerful and stable power supply system and heat dissipation of the X670 Iwallow AX contributes to the powerful and stable power supply system and heat dissipation.
game performance is the part that players care about. Thanks to the support of high IPC and high-frequency DDR5 memory, the Ryzen 5 7600X has achieved an average frame rate of , which is far higher than the previous generation Ryzen 5 5600X, especially the advantages of "Total War Legend: Troy", "Killer 3", "World of Warcraft: Shadowland" and "DOTA2" are particularly obvious, with the highest or even more than 50%. The processor, graphics card and memory can perform the ultimate performance, of course, relying on the luxurious materials and excellent electrical performance of the X670 Iwallow AX, so for enthusiast players, the X670 Iwallow AX is also an excellent choice for building mainstream game consoles.
summary: Upgrading Ryzen 7000 has great advantages, and the material pile expert X670 Xiaodiu AX is powerful enough
In general, Ryzen 7000 adopts the brand new 5nm Zen4 architecture, not only has IPC greatly improved, but its limit frequency has also reached a new height. Its performance improvement is very obvious compared to the previous generation, but it also puts higher requirements on the motherboard. As the first batch of X670 motherboards to be launched, the X670 Diao AX not only has luxurious materials and extended specifications, but also has first-class electrical performance and thermal design. It can fully ensure the stable performance of Ryzen 7000 and high-frequency DDR5 memory. The powerful power supply combined with EXPO, "low latency support" and "high bandwidth support" can fully tap the overclocking potential of processors and memory, providing players with an excellent user experience. In short, if you want to create a cost-effective Ryzen 7000 console, the X670 Diao AX is definitely the first choice of cost-effective luxury dessert.
