GO ELITE, great enough! New trees, new buds and new moods, AMD new platform installation experience is written in the previous
When I was praised as the "little prince of installation" in college, I no longer had the enthusiasm for hardware since I reached middle age. Now that the host at home is 7 years old, it is really difficult to meet the current work needs, so I burned the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X processor to try out the new platform, not talking about cost-effectiveness, just for a refreshing experience.
After all, it is rumored in the world. AMD yes~
whole machine configuration
After bad installation related knowledge and comprehensive accessories price, the installation configuration list is as follows:

processor
CPU as the performance center of the computer naturally has to choose a more powerful one. At the press conference a few days ago, I saw that all parameters of the AMD 7000 series have been significantly improved. Although Intel immediately announced the 13th generation desktop processor, I still entered A's house after thinking about the memories of using AMD Shinlong in the dormitory to play "Yamaguchi Mountain". 's new Zen 4 architecture and advanced 5mn + 6nm process should have a good user experience. In addition, there are the latest PCIe 5.0 and DDR5 to try out. The entire series comes with a standard graphics card, which saves office users' extra expenses for flashing their phones. As the cheapest U in the starter, the AMD Ryzen 5 7600X also needs to be 2,200 yuan. Middle-aged people are more pragmatic, and I think this U is enough.
memory
Kingston As the big brother in the storage industry, he has always had a good reputation. At that time, all the installed capacity of Kingston, and occasionally you will see shadows such as Weigang , Yuzhan, Jinbang . However, the current price of DDR5 is really too high. The double-striped 16G meets the onboard 32G storage target, and can get both 5200MHz frequency and lower timing. The memory now looks really good, not only has a vest but also a light. I am old and the accessories I choose are all dull, which may look more calm and steady as middle-aged people should be. I just skim the light and show off my vest strips and take into account the heat dissipation that I need most.
Motherboard
As the carrier of all accessories, you need to choose reliable and stable. The X670 series motherboard is flagship, so naturally retains the quality lineage in the original design intention and successfully advances to the first alternative sequence.
After careful research and comparison, I chose Gigabyte X670 AORUS ELITE AX.
looks good and looks very heavy. In terms of CPU power supply, it also uses 16-phase power supply. After getting it, I found that the motherboard was too much, and the core chip and capacitor were covered with thick heat dissipation armor, and the thickness of the PCB board was also very exaggerated. There is no need to worry about the motherboard being deformed by the graphics card, the heat dissipation too much.
on-board configuration is 4 DDR5 DIMM slots, a single slot supports up to 32GB capacity, and the EXPO configuration files of XMP 3.0 and AMD are also supported, both platforms can be taken into account; it also supports up to 6600MHz frequency. If overclocking enthusiasts like to toss, they can try the pleasure of overclocking. The fixing method is double-sided fixing buckles, which makes you feel double-easy. The new Soket AM5 LGA 1718 base similar to Intel is still a common lever locking installation, but the back panel does not seem to be disassembled, so when purchasing a radiator, you need to consult customer service if it can be adapted. This kind of slot must be accurately positioned when installed. If the base pin is bent, it will be a huge repair project.
is now full of new products. I believe that after a while, the corresponding protective armor will be available. Let's wait and see~
mentioned earlier that the CPU part is powered by 16 phases, and the total power supply phase of the motherboard reaches 20 phases, and the other 4 groups are nuclear graphics and auxiliary power supply respectively. The power output is definitely light and pleasant to deal with the entry-level 7600X. The controller uses infineon XDPE 192C3B PWM, Infineon TDA21472 70A SPS Dr.MOS, and Onsemi NCP303160 60A SPS Dr.MOS. This is also the standard control chip for flagship motherboards, which can ensure long-term and stable operation of the entire machine.
onboard three PCIe slots, the upper slot is metal reinforced to support PCIe 4.0 x16; the middle slot supports Pcie 4.0x4 and PCIe 3.0x2. Which slot should the graphics card be plugged into? Everyone should know it. In addition PCIe M. 2 slots up to 4, the main slot supports the fastest PCIe 5.0x4. However, there seems to be no SSD of the 5.0 protocol. SSDs using the 4.0 protocol should be able to directly release 100% of all performance. The other three interfaces are PCIe 4.0 x4, and it should be a very pleasant experience if you plug it in. The 4 M.2 interfaces on-board
all support tool-free quick installation, which is very convenient. In the past, I often had a headache because I couldn't hold this small screw. Now I don't worry at all. I can complete the installation and fixation by pressing and pressing.
There are also two switch and restart buttons reserved in the upper right corner of the motherboard, which will be very convenient during maintenance. The interface of
I/0 backplane is very comprehensive, covering everything from the most common HDMI video interface to USB-A and Type-C. The HDMI interface can provide 4096x2160 60Hz image transmission, and the audio interface supports .1 channel audio transmission. If there is no graphics card requirement, it can be greatly satisfied with the 7000 series' own core graphics.
In the default BIOS interface, we can intuitively make memory presets and configuration changes through XMP/EXPO. The core accessories related information of the entire host, such as CPU frequency, temperature, voltage, memory frequency , motherboard temperature, and chip temperature, can be intuitively understood. In the lower right, you can directly update BIOS through Q-flash.
Solid-state drive
confusion Samsung and Western Digital before I chose to bow to the price. Western Digital Black is the flagship. SN770 500G is completely enough for use as a system disk, and the price is also very reasonable. The panel data read at a peak of 5150MB/s looks fast enough, and there is still a 5-year long-term after-sales service, so it should still be a sticker.
This time, it is not full of PCIe 5.0, and it is also a reserved upgrade space. After the SSD price drops, I want to buy it and try it out.
graphics card
Although I claim to not play games, I still have a hot heart. The mining tide in the past few years made me unintentionally buy it. Now the mine is getting excited immediately after the level of the level, so I will arrange a 3060 directly to give it to myself. I personally like the appearance of this graphics card, and the performance of 3060 is also fully satisfying my later experience. Then I will return to "Yamaguchi Mountain" full-high image quality 4K nostalgia. Of course, this graphics card cannot report to my wife more than 1,000, and all married people understand it.
power supply
Unexpectedly, the power of the current power supply has reached kilowatts. After a rough calculation, the 650W power supply can be used to pull up this configuration. However, for stability and peace of mind, I still added the Jiuzhou Fengshen DQ750ST, which is cheap and has 0PLUS gold medal certification. It is not that the entire module is not at all important. Anyway, I don’t know how to deal with the wires.
Heat dissipation
As I mentioned earlier, I don’t like Shining Auto Parts City-style hosts, so the heat dissipation starts from the big frost tower and other things. When I saw this Ice Cube 620, I felt that the air-cooling and graphics card double white matching was so matched. The 6 heat pipe + matrix fin set looks domineering, and the 260W cooling power consumption should be no problem to suppress the 7600X with TDP power consumption of 105W. The most important thing is that this radiator is not fancy at all, and it is clean and just in my aesthetic point.
chassis
chassis is actually the most tangled thing I choose, because I have to consider ventilation and appearance. I saw this DP503 from the Avengers at Antec home, and finally chose it because the chassis that has no light is so angular. The entire metal grid in the front is made of geometric shape, and the chassis has vents except for the side-transparent tempered panel, which should have a good heat dissipation effect.
Installation effect
can start installing all accessories. After you don’t install it for a long time, you are a little confused when you start to use it. Fortunately, everything goes smoothly. I don't know if you like the whole machine effect.
The air cooling inside the part just echoes the graphics card, which is a bit suspended, and I personally like it very much. PS: The radiator and graphics card are both heavy, and the motherboard has a lot of weight pressure, but I won’t be so worried when I think of such a thick PCB. The interface of the
case is very sufficient, and there is also an RBG hub. The lighting effect can be switched through the LED above. But I'm using a light-free series, so this button is useless.
Testing link
CPU-Z You can see that the host's processor has been identified, with 6 cores and 12 threads, 5nm process, and TDP power consumption is 105W. The motherboard, memory, graphics card, also lists relevant information. Among the test scores, its single-core capability is 731.2 and multi-core 5868.5. Is this score considered high or low?
In the cooling dissipation process that I am most worried about, the entertainment master's cooling pressure test was conducted for 3 minutes, and the maximum temperature exceeded 92° during the period, and finally the test was completed with 83°. I personally think that there should be no problem with this level, and it is only about 38° in standby.
entertainment scores are also good, and it is more than 100W higher than the old computer at my family. There is definitely no problem with office work, and it seems that there is no pressure to play games. However, only one memory has been identified, and the model has not been identified. It has been like this even a few times. Could it be a bug?
Use summary
The most intuitive experience brought by replacing the new host is that everything has become faster. Before, opening a few more web pages would be stuttered, but now the situation has completely changed. The big toy I received for more than 9,000 yuan made me very happy, and the 7600X accumulated heat that I had worried about before did not appear during use. Since you have a new computer, you may play old games again to get nostalgic when you have free time, but this plan may take a long time to implement. In general, I am very satisfied with the performance of the new X670 platform and the new AM5 architecture. Aside from the selling price, there are almost no complaints. The price of graphics cards has also fallen. The situation of hard-to-find a card before is difficult to reappear, and the overall cost has also been somewhat balanced. It is the peak season for installation again, and it coincides with various promotional activities. Friends who want to install the installation can make it now!
