Do not talk about the product - depth to restore you a true degree of titanium black crystal desktop host

First of all, I would like to thank Sky's Titanium and Zhang Aunt for jointly launching this very powerful titanium-based black crystal gaming console host testing activity. For a company that is still in the start-up stage, it takes a lot of effort to come up with six computer hosts for free to the ordinary value-friends who are not professional media. It can be said that Sky is still relying on a wave of flow. Sky goes sky, this wave of public test, I like a lot of praise

When talking about Sky, it's natural to talk about War3. I can't say "War3 is my youth's fullness," but War3 is really a part of my youth. I still remember when I was a high school student. On the grand occasion of the War3, the love and hatred between Sky and Papaya has also added a lot of fun to the study and life at that time. Sky has also won the Queen of the People after two consecutive years of winning the WCG, and has also driven the time. The ever-increasing tide of e-sports today

With the end of War3 era and the rise of doba/lol online games such as moba, Sky gradually faded out of the public eye. At the end of last year, Sky brought its own gaming hardware brand “titanium” and the first mouse products to the world. It made me pay more respect to Sky, which has long been known for its hard work, and at least beats those who are currently selling live broadcasts. The so-called e-sports players who sell cakes by the way can still have a lot of pursuits. There is even a sense that people will have a sense of it. The company’s e-sports hardware company is really the person’s destiny.

However, just as Sky, who is an e-sports player, needs a championship to make a name for himself, Sky, who is an entrepreneur, now also needs a strong product to establish himself. Some people say that from the attitude to the degree of titanium, Sky is more than gold less heart, whether it is the beginning of the mouse, or later mechanical keyboard, and then to the current e-sports host, in fact, are relatively high profit margin products. These products are under the name of eSports and have a cool appearance. However, the targeted customers do not particularly care about the internal materials used, so I have always felt that many of the current domestic e-sports brands use a lot of cohabitation. To describe too much. So whether Sky’s Titanium can conquer consumers with perfect performance from the inside out is also the ultimate issue I’m going to discuss in this report.

At last

I want to say to WE.IGE.SKY, thank you for the happiness that I brought to high school. You have already achieved the best;

I want to say to Titanium.CEO.SKY, thank you for the products that you bring to today's e-sports players. You should also do better.

Want to complete this evaluation work, this issue is the most important issue that can not be avoided, after all, to test the degree of titanium black host is a main desktop computer eSports

There is no doubt that at present one of the hottest concepts in computer hardware is VR, and the other is eSports. E-sports hardware can be fired up of course because the number of people playing e-sport games has increased, and the reason why the current dot/lol era is more than e-sports in the previous sc/war3 era, I personally feel that it is because of dot/ Lol is a team game, even if you lose it can be very happy to dump the pot to others before the sc / war3 are unable to throw the pot of the single game, the sense of desperation produced by a master of abuse is really do not want to Re-experience the second time

OK, we still come back to the hardware problem. Most of the e-sports hardware introduced in these years is still set as the master. After all, playing games to directly touch and operate are peripheral products. Certain features of these products can indeed be applied to games. The effect has a more obvious effect, so we might as well take a look at it.

Display: Whether it is the low latency that was previously valued or the high refresh rate that is currently valued, displays designed specifically for e-sports can bring about a more responsive and smoother gaming experience, especially for FPS-type games. Obvious effect

Mouse: It should be one of the peripherals that has been valued by players since the ancient quake era, from the adjustment of the level of DPI to the accuracy of positioning, to the impact of the overall shape of the opponent and grip/grip, and even The subtle difference in the touch of the micro switch will allow the player to intuitively produce a smooth/unpleasant feeling, which has a direct impact on the competitive state.

Keyboard: Starting from the era of the Golden Ensemble/Audio Enthusiasts, pursuing the X-key without red-rushing, until the explosion of mechanical keyboards in recent years, the keyboard has always been a relatively low-key peripheral, but for moba/FPS/RTS that require a lot of keyboard operations In terms of games, the feel and reliability of the keyboard can still greatly influence the player's play, especially when the shaft of the mechanical keyboard has many choices. Finding the most suitable one for the shaft may greatly improve the game play. Feel and state may also be uncertain

Headsets: There are a lot of game headsets that have advertised their voices more accurately and have better positioning. They will be very helpful for FPS games. I think this is a category of metaphysics. However, looking at the current world competition environment, a headset with better sound insulation will no doubt help players better not be affected by the on-site environment, and a microphone with better pickup and noise reduction can allow teammates to communicate with each other. Smoother, it's worth seeing the headsets from both perspectives

Other special game equipment such as handles, joysticks, and steering wheels is even less of a problem. The emergence of the game itself is to better play the game. The effect is naturally beyond doubt.

After a round of laps, we returned to the question of this part of the title. What is the eSports Host? Or what elements do a host need to be called an eSports host? Unlike the above listed peripherals, as long as the performance is enough to play games without cards, the host is actually very difficult for you to have intuitive effects, but the hardware performance is indeed the basis for determining the game experience, and I also want to talk about myself here. Understanding

The eSports console is, after all, a computer that is mainly used to play games. If a computer is to be suitable for playing games, all the major components should generally meet the following conditions. We still do the same.

CPU: At present, the requirements of the game on the CPU are nothing more than these, either high-frequency or multi-core or both, so the best CPU frequency of an eSports host is close to or even more than 4g, and at the same time have at least physical quad-core specifications

Motherboard: As the core part of the entire computer, the biggest demand for the motherboard for eSports may be stability. It is obviously unacceptable that the number of crashes on the way to win the lol result is several times. Therefore, the motherboard is best to use Dachang's products, quality and reliability are guaranteed. In addition, although there is no need to pursue the overclocking characteristics like the crazy DIY console, the motherboard of an e-hosting device still needs to have certain extensibility. For example, it may add a second graphics card to form a dual-card system or expand more hard disks to install more later. Games and more

Memory: This is relatively simple, the bigger the capacity, the better, the higher the frequency, the better. If possible, it is best to form a dual channel.

Graphics card: For the gaming host is absolutely a core part of the core, even more important than the CPU. Although most eSports games do not place excessive demands on the graphics card, players will always want to try some stand-alone games and even VR. So at present, the graphics card of an eSports host should be at least 1060/470.

Sound card: Although some manufacturers, such as Asustek, have launched an independent e-sound card, I think most of the e-sports players are still using on-board small crab sound cards. But even an integrated sound card can be a place where you can work hard. For example, a sound card area that is isolated on the motherboard to avoid mutual interference, such as special sound processing software built in, etc.

Network card: To be honest, before the killer card was born, I am afraid that not many people would think that the network card will also be related to the game. However, under the same conditions of network speed, a card similar to killer that is designed to optimize the QoS mechanism for the game at the bottom of the hardware does cause network delays to be perceived, which is also proved by many organizations and individuals. In particular, online moba is so popular at this time that game NICs still have their unique value in maintaining a smooth operation of low ping security.

Hard disk: SSD should definitely be the standard for gaming consoles. It can not only greatly increase the speed of game loading, but also can avoid the game stalling caused by the fluctuation of system disk operations to the greatest extent.

Power: As the heart of a computer host, the power supply can be as long as the power is high enough. For the eSports, what 80PLUS gold medal, ah, the full module is not important enough enough, stability is overwhelming

Radiator: Because many times the high temperature will cause the CPU and graphics card to lower the frequency and thus affect the performance, so the performance of the radiator still needs to be maintained at a higher level than enough. And I personally think that silence is also very important, after all, the host is placed next to you, the sound of the fan is like a helicopter, and it will affect your feelings of war.

Chassis: This is just like power. There is no room for tossing. However, it seems that cool style and light pollution can have morale bonus buff?

After sorting through the major components, it seems we can also answer the question “What is the eSports Host?”:

The eSports host is a computer first, and it needs all the features that a high-quality computer needs: excellent performance, reliable quality, and a stable system. In addition, there should be some features that are specifically created for game needs, such as sound cards and network cards optimized for games. And if it is a finished product host that the manufacturer introduces, compared with the host that the player DIY assembles, it also needs some vendor-developed unique software to better protect the gaming experience.

In order to become a good e-sports host, the basis of the foundation is undoubtedly excellent performance. Let's analyze together whether the configuration of the titanium host can meet this requirement.

Before actually getting all the mainframes, I purposely went to the information channel to take a closer look at the arrival of the titanium host.

As the hardware giant of the three founders of titanium degrees, "Captain" Yu Mengyao should be the main person in charge of titanium degrees, he also said in the arrival show Titanium degree host R & D goals and design concepts

"We have met many eSports players and found that some players are almost completely white for the hardware. There is no concept for the hardware. They just love to play games." So the R&D team of Titanium's black crystal host thinks that overclocking is not an extensive one. Demand, and mainstream eSports games such as "League of Legends" and "Watching Pioneer" do not place excessive demands on the configuration. In contrast, letting players get started and ready to use is a much needed feature of an eSports console.

"Titanium degree is based on the brand machine thinking to do products, not Jingdong or Taobao assembly machine. Our internal materials, alignment, workmanship are guaranteed, if you look at it, you can see Internally neat, all-black cables, and we've guaranteed the beauty."

It should be said that I personally still agree with this idea. I can devote a lot of time to playing games to e-sports, and I am willing to spend a lot of money on direct purchases of e-sports console users. Objectively speaking, young people should be the majority. They may indeed be hardware-oriented. Not too much to understand, but inner turmoil will drive them to pursue the coolest and brightest gear, even if they have to eat instant noodles for a month. In this sense, the position of the black crystal host is quite clear, aiming at the group of young players who do not understand hardware but pursue coolness.

But if you want to fight for a less extreme but larger player user base, Titanium should do more and better. Because I always think that computer hosts as a practical-oriented commodity, even if the concept is beautiful, most consumers will still consider cost-effective as one of the decisive factors to consider whether to buy. If the same configuration, Jingdong assembly machine to sell 5000, titanium degree to sell 7000, I think in addition to fanatic players other than 99% will still choose Jingdong it, but in Jingdong quality service support, the Jingdong own host that is Different from the general assembly machine's quasi-brand machine, I think it is more appropriate. What's more, the price of computer hardware is relatively transparent, so the price of a computer is actually very easy to judge.

Titanium degree mainframe has three kinds of dispositions at present, the processor has all adopted i7-6700, the main difference lies in the specification of memory, display card and SSD, in addition disposes in the whole machine heat dissipating system also has the difference

The first is the 7299 8g memory 240g SSD and 1060/3g video card version

And VR version of 16g ​​memory 240g SSD and 1070/8g graphics card

32k memory 512g SSD and 1080/8g graphics card geek version

It should be said that the configurations of these three mainframes are relatively reasonable, and the grades between them are also in place. The unified use of the i7-6700 processor + H170 motherboard combination can maximally ensure that the CPU will not become a bottleneck in the game, because many gamers now also play live third-party software such as voice/voice when playing games. The i7, not the i5 or even the i3, which is already adequate, can be said to be a fairly dazzling decision. No matter if it is the lowest 3G 1060 or 1070 or even 1080 graphics card, it is enough to meet the needs of almost all kinds of e-sports games, and the more mainstream N-card is selected. very perfect. 8g capacity start-up memory and 240g capacity SSD start-up is now more mainstream configuration, should not be too outdated in two to three years, and players with higher demand can buy VR version or geek version, or even upgrade on their own . In general, the configuration of the black crystal host is still very reasonable from the paper

However, the disengagement of the price configuration is a rogue, remember before the end of October black crystal host pre-sale when there is a deposit expansion discount, 200 deposit can be spent as 1200 to reach the current price is lower than the current price of 1,000, so the actual price of the three versions They are 6299, 9999 and 13999 respectively. How about this pricing? I am not in a hurry to draw conclusions here. Everyone will then look down and judge

Although early on Oct. 31, it received the SMS of the public test. However, due to the close relationship between the dual 11s, the first hosts of titanium production seem to have been sold out in Jingdong. The host of this test has come from the warranty card. It was the second machine that was freshly baked in November and it was not until the 21st that it was finally issued.

For this kind of machine that needs logistics to be delivered to the user's hands, my greatest concern is undoubtedly whether the strength of the package can safely resist various unpredictable factors in the logistics process. Fortunately, the titanium degree is also well-prepared for this issue. The whole host's packaging is divided into two layers inside and outside, the outer box is an ordinary industrial packaging, but it is very intimate in both the upper and lower sides are set a one-time stickers to ensure that the user can receive goods directly to determine whether the machine was opened, and also posted There is a configuration sheet with the serial number of the whole machine

The inner box is the original packaging of the black crystal host, the overall use of red and black color, complemented by the black diamond host design elements, very beautiful, side "for gaming" slogan should be the degree of titanium entrepreneurial ideas and final goal. Similar to the outer box, the upper and lower openings of the inner box also have a one-time seal for the user to determine whether the machine is original, and also has a configuration sheet printed with the serial number of the whole machine. The serial number can be compared with the sticker of the outer box.

There is a large amount of black foam between the inner and outer boxes, and between the inner box and the machine, for fixing and buffering. The security of the overall package is still sufficient to withstand the test of any violent logistics.

As early as applying for public test, I saw that the design of the black crystal feels this is a cool chassis. There is no lighter pollution than the most popular big side now. It depends only on good shape and lines to win. It must be said that it is a very thoughtful design. Of course, what to say about Starcraft Crystal Tower is a bit of a gimmick.

After the inner box is opened, the black crystal main body and all the accessories that are wrapped in the plastic bag can be taken out—a power cord and a bag of instructions. The manual bag includes a quick start guide, a manual, and a system recovery U disk designed as a card. At the same time, the last page of the manual is used as the product warranty card, and the serial number of the host is also attached, which can be compared with the serial number of the inner and outer boxes.

In today's increasingly low frequency of use of optical discs, the design of the system recovery disk into a U disk undoubtedly reflects the intention of titanium degrees, this should be liked and this U disk has two partitions, one is a normal U disk partition And the other is a dedicated system recovery disk partition

The system recovery disk partition has been filled, but another U disk partition provides 8g of space to store additional device drivers and other commonly used software, a very intimate design

After we finished the U disk, we still returned to the host. It should be said that the actual black crystal host at first glance gave me a feeling of surprise because it was much smaller than expected, even if it was put together with UMX1 for personal use. Does not appear large, volume control is quite good

Before and after or to have a look, the black crystal host as a whole uses a black tone, the left and right side plate lines are completely symmetrical and relatively simple, the front panel is composed of a number of diamond-shaped cross-section, but it also depends on a different angle to make a difference Vulgar effects of change. The only fly in the ointment lies in the back panel of the back of the main board and the bare card, which should be blackened to make the overall tone more uniform.

The details of each part of the chassis, the base area is relatively large, and the edge of a total of six non-slip mats, the stability is still guaranteed. At the same time, it can be seen that the top and bottom have made large-area openings for heat dissipation, and a hollow grid has been made at the base to facilitate the discharge of internal heat. However, the number of motherboard's interfaces is really the biggest black dot. It only provides six usb interfaces, one PS/2 interface, one lan port and several audio interfaces, and even the core output interface is omitted. The two holes reserved for wifi were simply blocked. Independently provides the mainstream combination of 2DVI + HDMI + DP, but it is quite satisfactory

The value of friends who see my posts often knows that it is almost impossible for a computer to be unplugged from my hands, although the design concept of this black crystal host is just "let the players get started and get started," but How internal work materials are still a problem that a computer can never avoid. Before the Aunt’s official arrival show, there were a lot of value friends who said that they wanted to find out about the internality of Titanium. I think I’m also obliged to use this opportunity to peel off the gorgeous appearance of the host. Value Friends restore a true degree of titanium black crystal desktop host

In the back of the host can see another serial number sticker, you can see two tamper stickers below, will leave after leaving the word void, this sticker can not seem to rely on hair dryer to get, so we better not Rushly dismantled. The first step in dismantling is simple: remove the six visible screws on the back panel, and then remove the plastic back panel to reveal the real steel back panel

Continue to unscrew the four screws visible on the steel back panel, and then slide to open the side panels on both sides. This may be the relationship of the new machine. The side panel card is very tight, but fortunately it is only used to slide open the left side of the figure below. The distance can be removed smoothly. After opening the side panel to look inside the black crystal host, it does feel good. The front is almost completely black, and it can be clearly seen that the sub-warehouse design of the CPU and the graphics card (although there is no real physical partition), there is no black part on the right side, one is the 350W power supply of the TFX specification, and the other is A large piece of translucent plastic part that provides light pollution to the front panel. On the back side, because there are not many components, the relationship looks more concise than on the front. It is commendable that the openings on the back of the motherboard can be used to directly operate the heat sink backplane and the M2 SSD without removing the motherboard.

Looking back at the two side panels that were removed, the secret of the black crystal host's cool appearance was discovered. It was originally that the ordinary square steel plate was screwed onto a plastic housing and it was reserved on the side wall of the steel chassis. The heat dissipation opening is almost completely blocked by the plastic side plate, and the heat dissipation effect should be affected

At this stage of dismantling, it has been found that the cool styling outside the black crystal mainframe is all achieved by plastic components, and the connection between the “real” chassis and the internal steel plate is just a simple snap-fit ​​structure, so we’re going The upper and lower parts and the front panel are removed. It is important to note that the daughter board with the front USB and audio interface is fixed in the upper cover. It is necessary to remove the two fixing screws to separate them. Although both the upper cover and the base have openings for heat dissipation, only two fans are installed above the chassis, so only the upper cover has an extra dust filter. In addition, you can see the front panel is actually divided into two parts, namely the outer layer of the black panel and the translucent plastic layer used to transmit light inside, between the two layers also use a lot of buckles to fix, more to a bit Dense fear feels

After removing all the gorgeous decorations, the black crystal host finally stood in front of us with the most realistic side. In addition to the positive and negative sides of the motherboard seen above, we can see more details of the internal wiring: the extension of the front USB/audio interface and power interface is along the internal wiring of the front panel of the chassis, and the cable tie The finishing is very good, you can click on it and you can see there are two fans on the top and bottom of the chassis, but only two fans are installed on the top, and the bottom fan is empty.

After roughly looking at the real side of the black crystal host, dismantling continues. Next you need to remove the graphics module. First remove the four corners of the graphics card module screws, tie tape must be cut; then unscrew the DVI interface near the broken out of the screw, of course, the two graphics card baffle if you want to completely remove the graphics card Also to be screwed off; finally remove the 6pin power cord that is connected to the graphics card to completely remove the graphics card

After the graphics module is removed, it can be further decomposed. As early as when I first saw the show, I had already found that the black crystal host used the structure of the current relatively trendy motherboard video card in parallel. Before I took the machine, I thought it was achieved using the PCIE slot extension cable. The result was actually dismantled. Afterwards, it was found to be a specially-designed riser card. From the standpoint of stability, this is still a lot more than the adapter card which realizes 90-degree rotation of the display card, and a special graphics card holder and double milk 1060. The 3G graphics cards together form the black crystal host graphics module. In addition, it can be seen that the cable tie on the graphics card is actually fixed on the graphics card holder through the back board of the graphics card, so if you simply remove the video card for routine maintenance, you can actually do not cut the cable tie.

Graphics card dismantling is relatively simple, because the new generation of 1060's power consumption is relatively low, so the heat module only uses the double heat pipe direct touch specifications, in addition equipped with a metal backplane

Through the sticker on the back panel, you can see this piece of 1060 3g graphics card from Yeston, the model is the god of the earth, because the 1060 3g version is positioned in the middle of the graphics card, so the material is not particularly luxurious. The small GP106 core is surrounded by six video memories from Samsung, a total of four phases of power supply, auxiliary power supply interface is only a single 6pin

After the graphics card is disassembled, the next disassembled part is the power supply of this TFX specification. In addition to removing the screws that hold the power supply above the mainframe, it is also necessary to remove the small support below the power supply. This provides additional support for the power supply. The small details should also be praised. The stickers on the outside of the power supply indicate that the power source is a titanium brand, but the inside sticker reveals his true bloodline. This power source actually comes from the Great Wall. The power supply of TFX specifications is not uncommon in the field of brand machines. The Great Wall is also a major domestic power supplier. The quality is still trustworthy. However, this power supply has not passed 80plus certification, and the internal materials used by dismantling can only be said to be unsatisfactory. , Power structure to see this dismantling diagram can actually be seen very clearly, I do not start, in short, with i7+1080 is not too much of a problem, after all, black crystal host can not be installed inside a lot of hard disk like Extending equipment, the average eSports user is also unlikely to try overclocking. The biggest problem actually comes from the small-diameter cooling fan inside the power supply. The noise is still quite touching.

After the power supply, the motherboard will be started. The troublesome point is that the switch cords connected to the chassis and the motherboard are glued to the factory by the hot-melt adhesive. If you want to unplug it, you need to first clean the glue (bottom right), of course. Dealing with a problem that cannot be started due to unpredictable external forces during the course of transportation and causing the connection to fall off, the main board components include a heatsink + backplane, a single 8g memory, a CPU and an SSD, and of course, the main board itself.

There are no manufacturer's logos on the motherboard, but there is a sticker indicating the model number - H170GTN. After searching a little, it is a motherboard from Biostar Biostars.

However, from the actual dismantling point of view, this motherboard has a lot of shrinkage compared with the retail version. The first is the shape of the chipset heat sink. The R-shaped logo shrinks from the retail version into a common black heat sink; Eliminating DVI and HDMI core output interfaces, you can also find vacant solder joints and logos on the motherboard; wifi only reserves a mini PCIE slot and two antenna openings near the rear bezel. Already, a reserved U2 interface can be seen above the SATA interface, but it is also shrinking. In addition to shrinking the water, the sound card still uses the conventional small crab 892, but there is a circle of gold wire around the sound card area, which seems to be isolated from other areas of the motherboard. Next to the sound card is a network card, covered with a very eye-catching metal shield shell, which says SUPER LAN/surge protection, according to the introduction of lightning surge of 16000v. CPU power supply is also good, a total of 7-phase power supply can be seen, is about 6-phase CPU + 1 phase nuclear distribution mode. There is not much interface on the back of the motherboard, only the motherboard battery and a M2 slot, which M2 slot supports 2280 and 2260 two length specifications, fixed studs can adjust their position

This motherboard according to the above stickers and configuration table given by Jingdong should be a H170 chipset motherboard

However, the subsequent test process is very interesting, cpuz and AIDA64 are identified as Z170 chipset

So I decided to directly remove the chipset heat sink to see if it was a software identification error or an official configuration error

Amplified chipset photos can be seen in the upper right corner SR2C9 number

After comparing the intel official database, it is confirmed that this is indeed the number of the Z170 chipset, but it is not known why there will be mislabeling of product specifications.

In addition, I entered the motherboard's BIOS to look at it, and did not find any clues about the chipset problem. Although the BIOS setting items are relatively rich, most of them do not require users to readjust them. However, although the BIOS supports direct screenshots, I always stuck after pressing the screenshot key. It is estimated that I don't support the 64GB U disk in this NTFS partition. Then I created the BIOS setup project using screen shots.

About the main components on the motherboard

The first memory is a single 8g DDR4-2400 from Apacer.

CPU is not overclockable i7-6700

As for the SSD, it is a product that does not see the brand. The main control is from the entry level non-intrusive 88NV1120 of Marvell, and it does not see the independent cache chip, only two flash memory chips from Hynix. With this 240g SSD, there is no doubt that the type of flash memory is TLC slightly.

The CPU heatsink uses a four-heat-pipe-type push-down heat sink, which is suppressed by a 4pin 8cm fan. It should be enough to deal with the 6700 without K. The pre-coated silicon grease is more and more lean. , does not seem to use special advanced products

In addition, to be honest I have a little concern about this SSD, because the two rows of metal contacts at the tail of the entire hard drive are not seen on other retail M2 interface SSDs, giving me a feeling of strangeness because It's much like the reserved interface that the development board products use to directly plug in the device for debugging (though Samsung 950 Pro and other products have such contacts, but not so much dense). Although there are some model information on the pcb board, but Google did not get any meaningful results, but from the top of the line 20160302 time information to see this SSD should be earlier models

In the actual use, most of the SSDs are normally used stably, but there is a small problem that may be related to this SSD: When using the screenshot tool of win10, I set the save path. Directly is the desktop, however, although the saved screenshots can be seen while saving a new screenshot, there is no icon on the desktop. The following figure shows that I have already taken 9 pictures, but there are only two picture icons on the desktop

Press F5 to refresh before the normal display of all the screenshots on the desktop, and under normal circumstances should be to save a screenshot on the desktop will be an additional icon. The reason why this symptom appears for a long time seems to only boil down to this SSD problem.

At this point, the dismantling of the main components has been completed, and the interior of the chassis has been basically cleared. We can take a closer look at this chassis. It should be said that this black crystal host chassis design is still very good, there is no blind pursuit of large and useless ATX standard chassis, but with enough eSports users to use ITX specifications, plus the graphics card horizontal design and TFX specification power supply The use of effective control of the size of the chassis. The distribution of the motherboard, video card, and power supply is also very reasonable. However, it also brings some problems. First of all, scalability is worrying. We can see that there is only one 2.5-inch hard disk extension in the chassis, and only one SATA power cable is reserved, so count the M2 solid-state hard disk on the back of the motherboard. The entire black crystal host can only install two hard disks at most, which is not good news for the players who love the single-player game. After all, the size of the single-player masterpiece is getting bigger and bigger, and the size of games with 50-60 g is also increasing. more. Another problem is heat dissipation. For this time, all the tested e-sports versions have only two 8cm fans installed at the top, and there are no standard fans for the two 8cm fan positions reserved at the bottom, and both the CPU and the video card cooler are Is not directly out of the chassis out of the type of heat, long-term high-temperature performance under the load is still a bit worried, after the temperature test also confirmed this

In terms of light pollution, in fact, the black crystal host has achieved good results with only a very simple configuration. The source of the light pollution of the entire machine is only the two rows of LED chips on the front panel of the chassis and the LED lights in each of the two fans. However, the intention of titanium is to arrange a sub-board for controlling the fan and light inside the chassis and under the power supply. Through observation, we can see that this sub-board is connected to the main board through the USB 2.0 interface, while using a large The 4pin interface takes power from the power supply, providing a total of 4 4pin fan interfaces and 6 LED light power supply interfaces. Because it is equivalent to a USB device, it is also very convenient to provide more light pollution games through software upgrade later in the game.

So far all the dismantling evaluations are over, it should be said that removing all the externally modified black crystal mainframe still has many advantages. The most impressive one is of course the excellent overall appearance of the machine, almost black The appearance of the hardware, the clear planning of the hardware area, and the regular internal alignment all make it intuitive to feel that this is a carefully designed host, and it also shows good results in the fine details such as the dustproof net. Detail performance

However, during the dismantling process, I also discovered some black crystal host problems. The first is the handling of screws because there are no gaskets, so when the screws are screwed, it is very easy to cause peeling of the paint on the surface of the chassis. In fact, it was caused at the time of assembly in the factory. When I unscrewed the screw, the paint immediately fell down with the screw. In addition, the paint on the bayonet side of the chassis is also very easy to scratch, it has to be said that as a host in 2016 also used this way to fix the side panel is somewhat out of date.除了这些油漆方面的问题，我还碰到了两个比较囧的事情，一个是机器前置接口面板直接有一小块是断裂的，拧下固定螺丝之后马上就掉下来了；另一个则是塑料前面板的两个卡扣也是断的，而且这两个断的零件是我刚把主机从包装袋里拿出来时就掉出来了，当时还一头雾水不知道这是什么东西 不过还好没有扔掉。现在想来应该是在工厂装配的时候就断了，然后运输过程中从塑料前面板下面的散热开口处掉出来了。对于这两处断裂的地方，虽然可以用502大法来修补，不过还是希望钛度日后能把这种细节处的品控抓的更严一些

如果说上面这张图里的四个瑕疵还可以说是不可抗力造成的话，下面这张动图就只能归结为装配人员的素质问题了：刚拆下来的显卡背板居然是松动的 原因也很简单，有一个固定螺丝没有拧紧。虽然这个小问题大概并不会对整机的稳定运行有任何影响，99.99%的黑晶主机买家大概也不会发现这样的问题，但好歹是第一款主机产品，当然应该尽可能做到尽善尽美，不是么？

虽然黑晶主机所装备的i7-6700+1060 3g版组合已经有过很多的性能评测了，但在这里还是不能免俗的稍微跑一跑常规测试，而且测试过程中也确实暴露出了一些问题

首次开机得益于SSD，非常快速。启动完成之后我们可以发现桌面非常简洁，只有回收站和钛度电脑助手这两个图标。而因为没有配置无线网卡的缘故，右下角的网络连接图标很尴尬的出现了红叉，只得临时找了一块USB网卡进行联网

我们点开钛度电脑助手可以看到四个主要功能界面，分别是灯光、风扇、游戏模式和更新，然而预装的版本里面只有灯光功能是可用的，其他两个模式都还没开发完成，更新功能也显示没有更新的版本

然而去官网转了一圈，发现了1.02版的电脑助手，不知道为何预装版本无法直接在线升级到这个版本。装好之后发现相对于预装版本来说，风扇选项卡内已经可以进行风扇转速的调节了，更新选显卡里则细分为了软件更新和固件更新，不知道固件是否对应的就是BIOS。然而可惜的是游戏模式依然欠奉

UPDATE：提交报告前发现电脑助手更新了1.03版

游戏功能已经可以用了，但是这个“帮助玩家更方便更快速的打开游戏”是什么鬼

然而除了钛度电脑助手之外，黑晶主机只预装了下图里的一些驱动程序，并没有一些专门针对电竞优化的特色软件及功能，不得不说还是比较让人失望的

另外一点让人无法理解的是作为一台9月底才发布，10月底才上市的电脑主机产品，黑晶主机居然没有预装Win10的周年更新版本，用户不得不花大量的时间等待Win10从原始版本自动更新到1607版本，我是24号首次开机开始测试的，直到27号才突然被提示要求更新

通过AIDA64的系统一览我们可以看看黑晶主机的详细配置，系统采用Win10的家庭版，虽然没有上Pro版有些遗憾不过家庭版也足够用了。i7-6700、1060 3g、单条8g的DDR4 2400、小螃蟹892声卡这些都已经在拆机过程中实际看到了，另外可以看到被金属屏蔽壳遮住的网卡是来自intel的I219-V，虽然也是一块非常不错的千兆网卡，但是一台电竞主机却没有配备killer网卡多少还是让人有些遗憾

另外我们可以看到虽然采用了DDR4-2400的内存，但是默认时序其实非常的一般，达到了17-17-17-39

而且因为只有单通道，所以内存读写成绩都非常一般

而拆机时就让人感觉不好的这块固态硬盘果然也是走SATA协议的M2接口固态盘，实际读写速度都只有SATA3固态硬盘的一般水准，而且4k性能比较弱

无论是CrystalDiskInfo还是SSD-Z，都无法顺利读出这块固态硬盘的完整信息，而且硬盘的温度无论在何种情况下都被读取为48度，系统空闲时是48度，进行读写测试时也是48度

下面是一些CPUZ、GPUZ和诸如国际象棋一类的简单跑分杂图

当然入手这台主机的用户还是以游戏需求为主，所以我们下面一起来看看3dmark的系列跑分，基于dx10的Cloud Gate和dx11入门级的Sky Diver当然不在话下

而Fire Strike三部曲也是常规的3g版1060测试成绩，流畅的在1080p分辨率下玩耍主流游戏还是问题不大的

基于dx12的Time Spy成绩就一般般了

因为1060核心温度并不高的关系，在老黄全新的boost 3.0机制下，这块盈通3g版1060显卡的核心频率在运行3dmark测试的时候可以自动加速至1860MHz，同时温度最高只有68度，在黑晶主机狭小的空间这个显卡温度还是不错的

身为若干篇超频指南的作者，我自然也用afterburner尝试了一下超频，因为核心频率本来就很高的关系，最多只能拉高110，不过显存因为是三星的颗粒所以超频能力相当可观，拉到750才出现轻微花屏，最终稳定拉高725完成了所有测试。此时显卡核心的boost频率已经可以达到1999.5，进入了2GHz的门槛，同时测试时的温度仅仅提高了4度来到了72度，但是注意这是在手动将风扇转速固定在100%得到的成绩，如果继续自动转速的话可能会提高到接近80度的水平

这个幅度的超频带来的测试成绩提升还是比较可观的，FSU和Time Spy的图形分都有10%左右的提升，FSU总分突破了3000，Time Spy总分则站上了4000。不过考虑到超频之后对整机散热的压力，还是不推荐通过超频来获得这10%的性能提升

随后进行默认频率的FSU压力测试时，机内的CPU和显卡温度已经差不多达到了安全稳定使用的最高温度范围，两者最高温度分别达到了72度和82度

而且通过GPUZ的监控可以发现盈通这块显卡的风扇策略稍稍有些保守，核心温度最高都到达了82度，风扇转速最高却只有68%

拆机时我就对黑晶主机在极端情况下的散热能力有些怀疑，因为机箱内部虽然把CPU和显卡两个区域做了分割规划，但是散热器以及机箱风扇的配置并没有在机箱内部组成一个比较良好的风道，所以现在区区一个FSU稳定性测试就将CPU和显卡推到了七八十度的高温

于是我通过AIDA64和furmark同时对CPU和显卡两者进行了烤鸡，以考察黑晶主机在极端情况下的散热表现（比如夏天38度高温时在空调坏掉的房间连续打10小时单机大作）其中furmark采用了据说负载最高的800*600 noAA的设置

测试结果证实了我的担忧，烤鸡仅仅进行了16分30秒，CPU的最高温度就已经达到了101度。显卡温度也有81度，而且此时furmark显卡温度曲线并没有达到平衡状态，还在缓慢爬升中。同时我们可以看到因为这两个大火炉产生的热量并不能有效排出机箱，主板温度也攀升到了63度，AUX温度甚至窜到了95度。但是固态硬盘的温度依旧保持在48度，我猜测这块固态硬盘显示的温度其实一直被固定在这个数值

应该说通过这个CPU突破100度的双烤测试结果可以看到黑晶电竞版的散热设计几乎没有留任何余量，只能够满足一般的游戏散热，而且不要忘记现在还是冬天，虽然我这里有暖气，室温也只有20度出头的样子，很难想象初夏还没开空调时在30度左右的室温下黑晶电竞版会有怎样的温度表现

因为散热方式所限，也不可能非常有效的改善散热系统，姑且尝试了一下将原配硅脂更换为了采融PK3。采用同样设置双烤了16分11秒，这次的散热表现稍有改善，CPU最高温度勉强控制在了97度没有破百，而且显卡的温度曲线波动也变得平稳了一些，当然最高温依然冲到了81度。主板和AUX温度也分别有了两三度的降幅

然而更换更好的硅脂依然只有治标不治本的微弱效果，客观地说，这样的双烤成绩甚至还比不上某些高配游戏本的散热表现，黑晶电竞版的散热系统毫无疑问是有些问题的

好在一般日用场景下的温度还是非常不错的，在进行诸如安装3dmark等日常操作的时候，CPU的温度只有50度左右，显卡更是只有39度

黑晶主机作为一台“以做品牌机的思维”做出来的成品主机产品，想必一定拥有品牌机所提供的服务和售后。所以接下来我们就一起看看钛度到底为黑晶主机提供了怎样的服务

来到钛度的官网，可以看到整体网页的布局还是很清晰的，而且有一个特别的亮点，就是右下角的蓝色图标，可以随时通过这里联系到钛度的客服

只要提示还有客服在线，就可以通过这样一个聊天窗口和客服实时聊天咨询，非常的方便。聊天框内还能输入表情和插入附件，方便用户直接上传一些文件供售后人员解决问题

而且每次咨询完还会有满意度调查

另外钛度的官网还直接整合了商城的功能，可以购买黑晶主机，现在除了1080显卡的极客版缺货之外，电竞版和VR版都可以直接购买

下面还可以看到用户的评价，清一色的好评，主要集中的点基本都在外观和服务上，侧面也证明了我最开始的分析，钛度对用户群的需求把控的确实非常到位，电竞玩家就是追求酷炫嘛

而在专门的服务页面，玩家可以很方便的进行软件下载，也能直接享受钛度服务，该有的服务基本上都有了。不过毕竟黑晶是电脑整机产品，还是希望后期能推出诸如BIOS升级、更多的特色软件这样的服务，驱动程序下载因为有win10全自动安装倒是没必要再提供了

除了服务页面之外，玩家还可以在钛度社区里得到帮助，直接和官方人员和其他玩家交流

黑晶主机专区里置顶的帖子也非常使用

还可以看到官方的内存和硬盘升级贴

甚至还提供了非常详细的拆机安装指南，点个赞

价格方面也不算很离谱，还算厚道

然而可惜的是就如同商品介绍里写的一样，内存和硬盘的升级仅供首发主机使用，第二批机器因为有保修封条的关系虽然可以自行升级，但是升级之后毫无疑问就失去保修了。我也就这个问题咨询了客服，另外还咨询了主机出问题之后的返修问题，可以看到客服的回复还是非常专业和有用的

而且客服所说的新配置也是钛度官方参考玩家意见之后推出的新款带机械硬盘的版本，目前正在京东预售，采用了i5-6400+1050ti的组合，内存依然保持在8g，硬盘容量则有240g SSD和120g SSD+1t机械两种选择，售价方面也更亲民，预售价格折算下来只要5499

应该说钛度这种听取玩家意见的做法值得我们点个赞 也展现出了官方及时改进配置和售价的能力

我们现在已经看完了黑晶主机的拆解、测试和售后服务，接下来就一起看看应该是Sky最擅长、最有发言权的键鼠套装吧

先来看看键盘，和黑晶主机一样，钛度这款金属师电竞机械键盘的外包装采用了红黑为主的色调。主要突出了樱桃原厂黑轴这一卖点，同时依然有“为电竞而生”的slogan

打开盒盖，内部并没有太多的保护措施，只有一个塑料袋包裹着整块键盘。所有的内容物就是一把键盘和一份简短的用户指南，不知道为什么没有附送拔键器和诸如WSAD等游戏键位的特制键帽，好在各种快捷组合键都已经介绍的很清楚

键盘正面是标准的104键布局，背部的四个角落各有一小条防滑垫，另外有两个支架可以提供两档的高度调节

作为一把定价699的机械键盘，金属师的细节处理还是比较到位的。所有键帽印刷清晰、排列整齐，该有的定位小凸点也都没含糊。线材上自带有束线带，而且USB接口采用了镀金材质，并附有保护盖。右上方有三个指示灯，但是把常规的scroll lock替换成了钛度键盘游戏模式开关的指示灯。方向键上方的钛度logo也很精美，美中不足的是这个logo并不会发光

ABS键帽的手感还是不错，涂层的厚度也比较扎实，采用的字体看起来也很舒服。但是内部这插槽的形状总感觉有些强度不够的感觉，有点单薄

整把键盘的光污染元素还是比较丰富的，除了每颗按键下方的LED灯之外，沿着键盘左右两侧和后方有一条连贯的光带

整把键盘全部采用了内六角螺丝来固定，简单拆解之后即可将键盘全部分离。我们可以看到外部线材上欠奉的屏蔽磁环其实已经集成在了内部与主板连接处的附近，这个设计不得不点一个赞

主板则和键盘正面的金属面板镶嵌在一起构成了一个整体，强度和耐用度方面都有保证，焊点也工整饱满，做工不俗。同时我们可以看到光污染灯带内部其实是绕主板一圈的LED小灯球构成的。主板上的两颗芯片隐约可以看到V字logo，应该是采用了很多国产机械键盘同款的Vision主控方案

总的来说钛度这款金属师键盘还是对得起699的售价，内外做工都不俗，而且原厂黑轴的手感真的是非常适合游戏玩家，光污染方面也有足够多的玩法

而作为Sky电竞硬件生涯开山之作的预言者智能版电竞鼠标，包装风格很明显的和后来的键盘及主机有区别，并没有采用红黑的主色调。这次众测还额外附送了一根1.9m长度的数据线

鼠标外观初看没什么特色，但是实际的握感真的非常不错，和钢厂的Rival300类似，但是尺寸小了一圈，更适合国人的手掌尺寸，所以无论是趴握还是抓握都可以用的很舒服

而预言者最让人眼前一亮的设计就是外壳和脚贴可以轻易地拆解替换了，这绝对是Sky作为电竞老司机的点睛之笔 拆解也从脚贴下面的四颗螺丝开始，注意左下方螺丝上贴有易碎贴，不过可以比较轻松的用电吹风大法搞定，然后拆开两根数据排线即可分解鼠标

预言者内部的结构并不像罗技的G9x和G700s那样繁复，就是很简单的双层结构。上壳内部应该是控制灯光的子板，旁边可以看到侧键和心率感应器的结构

可以看到内部左右键和滚轮中键都采用了欧姆龙的白点微动，不过左右键采用的是20M寿命的版本，中键则只采用了一般的版本

底座主板上有一颗很显眼的ARM芯片，应该是整个鼠标的主控芯片，另外我们可以看到主板左右两侧的各6颗LED灯，他们和滚轮子板上的3颗LED灯一起构成了整个鼠标光污染的来源。安华高的A9800虽然已经是几年前的产品了，但是性能目前来看依然是顶级

应该说作为Sky的游戏硬件首秀，这款预言者鼠标在看完黑晶主机之后真的是显得诚意十足，不仅硬件配置上基本达到了同类产品的顶尖水平，而且定价并不过分，甚至可以说很有性价比。更不用说可拆卸设计和心率功能的加入让这款鼠标真正做到了想玩家所想，让用户在使用过程中就能体会到这是一款走心之作

键鼠配套的PC端软件叫做电竞精灵，初次运行会提示升级鼠标的固件，毕竟这是Sky的第一款鼠标产品，离首发已经过去了相当长的时间，整个升级的过程比较快速，而且可以看到固件升级中的改动都相当实用

这个软件整合了鼠标和键盘的调节，除了可以进行常规的灯效调节之外，还能对鼠标的dpi、键盘的键位等参数进行编辑。尤其实用的一个功能我认为是能实时监测鼠标的微动点击次数和总的移动距离，方便玩家准确判断目前手中鼠标的损耗程度。另外还有针对专业玩家的数据统计等功能，可说真的是Sky基于自身经历设计的非常实用的一款电竞装备软件

而这套键鼠套装和黑晶主机组成的黑晶电竞台式主机套装也是十足的酷炫，三者的灯效组合在一起真的是强无敌 实际的效果比这张展示动图好一万倍

最开始的配置解析部分其实已经说过了，钛度这次的黑晶主机目标用户相当明确，就是瞄准的那些不懂硬件但是追求酷炫的狂热玩家。对于这部分用户而言其实看到上面那张灯光图八成就会为黑晶买单了

然而评价一台电脑不能单纯的看颜值说话，所以我在这里会为广大的一般玩家深度分析一下黑晶主机到底值不值

对于大部分一般玩家来说，他们和黑晶主机的目标用户一样，都需要一台买回来就能打游戏的电脑，但是对颜值可能不会有特别高
