Recently, a number of brands have released several mini-hosts intensively, which has set off a trend and attracted many netizens to pay attention to the field of mini-hosts. Today I will bring you the experience of using the Zero SER6 Pro standard version (32GB+500GB) that is currently on pre-sale.
Appearance and configuration

The main body of the Zengji SER6 Pro adopts CNC one-piece precision carving process. The magnesium aluminum alloy body has high-gloss chamfering. It looks and feels full of texture. It has I/O interfaces on the front and rear, large-area metal air intake grilles on the left and right sides, and breathable and splash-proof fabric on the top. The box also comes with a red fabric cover (after replacing it, I found that the color does not seem to match). The measurements of the

host are 126*113*42mm, the volume is 0.6L, and the measured net weight is 512g.

There are two left and right foot pads at the bottom, which are very stable when placed on the table. The host can be disassembled by removing 4 screws.

On the front is the CMOS reset hole, 2 USB 3.0, 1 USB4 that supports 4K60Hz video output and a 3.5mm headset interface. On the far right is the power button.

has a 2.5G network port, 1 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0, 2 HDMI 2.0, power interface and cooling outlet on the back.

The motherboard can be connected to an M.2 2280 solid state drive and a 2.5-inch SATA interface hard drive. In addition to the large CPU cooling system, the hard drive and memory are also equipped with a small fan, which helps to better release the hardware performance.

The reason why this machine is officially defined as a small game console is mainly due to the six letters: AMD YES!

In terms of configuration, the processor uses AMD R7-6800h processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, TDP has a power consumption of 45 watts, and the graphics card is AMD Radeon, which is known as "the most powerful nuclear display on the earth" 680M. In terms of storage, the standard version uses two DDR5 4800 frequency 16GB memory and Kingston 500G M.2 NVME solid state drive.
software running score and performance test

In the CrystalDiskMark test, the sequential read and write speeds reached 3727MB/s and 2372MB/s respectively, and the 4K random read and write speeds were 59MB/s and 198MB/s respectively. The overall performance is good. After communicating with the technical staff, this machine also supports 7000MB/s solid-state hard drive, and you can upgrade it yourself if you want higher speed.

The new version of Master Lu easily passed 1 million points, surpassing 84% of devices, CPU exceeded 590,000, and the core graphics exceeded 120,000. The running score is close to the entry-level independent graphics GTX 1050Ti.


PCMark10 score is 5173, ranking more than 70% of devices.


3DMark Time Spy score 2677, stress test frame rate stability 97.4%, passed.

CineBench R23 single-threaded 1504, multi-threaded 11086, performance is similar to Apple M1, compared with i5-1240P (1634/9436), single-threaded performance is slightly lower by 8%, multi-threaded is 17.5% higher.

Heat dissipation determines the release of performance. The single-baked FPU can be close to 45 watts in the early stage, the average package power is 37.7 watts, the average CPU core frequency is 3.3GHz, and the maximum temperature is 86 degrees. After the machine was obtained, the BIOS and EC patches were updated. Before the update, the average CPU package power was 35 watts, and the temperature did not exceed 80 degrees.

The standby power consumption of SER6 Pro is 12 watts, the power consumption is 29 watts when watching 8M quality live broadcast on the browser webpage, the power consumption is 56 watts when the baking machine is , and the maximum power consumption is more than 64 watts when playing games.
actual combat

tested several popular games, all with 1080P resolution, the ever-popular League of Legends with medium image quality, 5V5 average frame The rate exceeds 130, with an average of nearly 200 frames in 1V1.

CSgo111 frames, and the medium quality of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) reaches 78 frames, which can be called a "smooth game".


The highest image quality of the PC version of Genshin Impact is basically stable at the highest 60 frames. The "Best Game of 2021" Cyberpunk 2077 has an average frame rate of 40 at the lowest image quality, which can only be said to be barely operated.

Photoshop can easily open and edit 1.8GB PSD files, and Premiere Pro standard definition video editing is smooth; currently many people are using the clipping professional version, which is fully capable of various operations without any lag.
summary:
is smaller in size and lower in power consumption than conventional hosts. Mini hosts have their own unique advantages. Especially in recent years, the performance of mobile processors has greatly improved. In addition, after equipped with a core display whose performance is comparable to entry-level independent graphics, it can be said that except for 3A masterpieces, it can basically meet most of the needs of users. For both productivity and gaming entertainment, the SER6 Pro equipped with AMD Ryzen 7 6800H performs really well in all aspects.
