Perhaps the coolest non-public RX470! Dylan X-Serial Reviews

[PConline Review] "X-Serial" series, as Dylan's high-end product line has always been high-value high-performance products for consumers, and this year's Dylan X-Serial series will be "simpler, reluctantly The spirit of fearlessness!” is implemented in the product and creates a series of refreshing graphics products. Isn’t it? And look at the author's hand Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial evaluation.

Large appearance of the "X" Logo and X status indicators, the X-Serial element to the extreme

When you first see this product, it will be attracted by the huge “X” style on the front of the graphics card. There is no doubt that the design of this product is very successful!

A set of red "X" style lines are also printed on the back panel, which is a good example of injecting "X-Serial" elements.

The external power supply is 8Pin, which is no different from many other manufacturers' high-end RX470 products, such as: sapphire RX470 ultra-platinum OC.

The back video output interface is 3 DP ports, 1 HDMI port and 1 DVI port; it can meet most of the current user needs; of course, if your monitor only stays in the VGA era, you can only use all kinds of Video adapter.

The top of the card is equipped with X status indicator, as the standard of X-Serial products, users can use it to effectively determine whether the graphics card is in normal operation, which is very practical.

On a bright machine map, a little red X state indicator light in the orange, the X-Serial elements to the extreme, I must be able to plant in the heart of many players!

Specifications: The Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial is based on an overclocked baseband frequency of 1242MHz, approximately 34% more frequency than the public version (926MHz), higher memory frequency (7000MHz), and external power supply. Version is more than 2Pin. I believe that if you manually pull up the PowerLimit this card will perform better, of course, in order to reflect the performance of the machine, in the following tests did not do so.

Lightweight shroud, do not add and subtract

After removing the 4 screws on the back, the entire thermal module can be easily separated from the PCB; this card is very easy to remove.

The Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial has an overall card size of 282 x 108 x 41mm. It is not long, and it is compatible with most chassis. Unlike many N-card manufacturers who continue to add design (constantly to the flow hood on the lights ah that ah); this product has done a subtraction, lightweight cover, use the strength and weight of the material to create, in To ensure heat dissipation while reducing the weight of the entire card, to reduce the weight of the graphics card PCB and motherboard, help extend system life.

X cold wind III cooling system, using pure copper base and four heat pipe design, with a mixed-size fan (two 9cm a 8cm) and X Hawkeye temperature control, low load zero speed, truly temperature control and noise control both.

The black tempered back panel is embossed with many X-shaped red lines, and the back of the back panel is tilted. There is also an X-shaped hollow pattern.

PCB board material is full, there are few empty solder, all kinds of electronic components evenly cover the entire layout.

Using X reactor power supply system, based on digital power supply, with multi-phase power supply circuit, stable performance, long-lasting electrical characteristics.

The NorthStar architecture core of the 14nm FinFET process process is equipped with eight Hynix GDDR5 512MB memory chips. The total capacity is 4GB and the bit width is 256Bit.

Let's take a look at how the performance?

Platform Description: The test platform uses a consumer-grade platform Z170 + 6700K top-matching, this test selected a total of 4 video cards for comparison testing, respectively, Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial, AMD RX480, NVIDIA GTX1060 3G, AMD R9 The 370X is driven by the latest AMD Crimson Edition 16.9.2 WHQL and NVIDIA ForceWare 372.90 WHQL.

3DMark theory test:

In addition to the two FireStrike Ultra & Extreme tests that we commonly use, the 3DMark theory test section added 3DMark's latest DirectX 12 benchmark test for game PCs, aiming to bring you a more comprehensive reference.

Theoretical test summary: As shown in the test results, the Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial is inferior to the RX480 and GTX1060 3G in theoretical test results, but in any case it is more important than the previous generation R9 370X performance. The leap, let's take a look at the actual game experience?

Game performance test

We selected several representative popular games, including DX12's "Singularity Ashes", "Tomb Raider 10", FPS Top Block "Blockade", and "Grand Theft Auto 5". Old generation graphics killer "Crysis 3".

Test summary: Game performance Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial With excellent support for DX12 and 4G memory, the number of frames in games such as Ancient Tomb 10 and Singularity ashes is even better than the GTX1060 3G version. This was before us. The DX12 game is also reflected in the big horizontal review; while the RX470 is slightly inferior to the GTX1060 3G in the earlier DX11 games such as blockade, GTA5 and Crysis 3 all over the country.

Platform power consumption, temperature, noise test and PConline evaluation room summary

Platform power test:

In order to get closer to the real-life scenarios in the player's daily applications, and also to more fully understand the power consumption of the Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial, we will use three scenarios to measure the power consumption of the platform, namely, Furmark, and games. Copy machine and standby mode.

Power consumption test summary: The overall power consumption is similar to that of the RX480. The power consumption of the copying machine is lower than that of the GTX1060 3G. Although the power consumption of the R9 370X is slightly higher, the performance improvement it brings may not be an order of magnitude. Energy efficiency is very good! (Sure enough, electronic products are buying new ones and not buying old ones!)

Graphics card temperature test:

In order to test the temperature limit under the radiator, we used the classic donut Furmark to test.

Test summary: At room temperature 26°C, the Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial has a jog temperature of 69°C, which is 5°C lower than the standard radiator! The performance of the X Cold Air III cooling system is not bad. It can be said that the purpose of reducing the weight of the entire card while ensuring the cooling intensity is reached.

Card noise test:

Here we have a noise tester that tests the graphics card's fan noise when Furmark is fully loaded.

Test summary: Only 47 decibels when recording, quite quiet! Nothing is better!

About noise:
0 - 20 db: very quiet, almost imperceptible; 20 -40 db: quiet, like whisper; 40 - 60 db: normal general indoor conversation; 60 - 70 db: noisy: denervated; 70 -90 db: Very noisy, nerve cells are damaged. 90 - 100 db: Intensified noise, impaired hearing; 100 - 120 db: Unbearable, one minute or temporary deafness. 120 decibels or more: Extremely paralysed or fully paralyzed; 300 decibels or more: People with a radius of 20 km cannot repair deafness.

PConline graphics ladder diagram:

The ladder diagram shows: According to the test results, we put the Dylan RX470 4G X-Serial slightly lower than the RX480 and GTX1060 3G and higher than the RX470 public version.

PConline concludes:
