Test: Aorus X9 (i7-7820HK, GTX 1070 SLI, QHD) Laptop (Sammanfattning)

Dubbel Turbo. Medans dom flesta tillverkare endast ger sina spellaptops en dedikerad grafikenhet så ger Gigabyte sin helt nya 17-tums Aorus X9 med två Nvidia GPU:er. Vi kommer ta reda på huruvida det finns någon anledning att använda ett GeForce GTX 1070 i SLI-läge eller om denna funktion har fler nackdelar än fördelar.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
6.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 4.6 ms rise
↘ 2 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 15 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.5 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
21.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 11.6 ms rise
↘ 10 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 28 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.7 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17900 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Emot

- typiska SLI-svagheter (mikro-avbrott, beroende av drivrutiner)
- medioker QHD-skärm (betraktningsvinklar, svärta, kontrast)
- ytor och moderkort blir snabbt smutsiga
- enhetens botten blir varm
- problem med ljudnivå
- låg batteritid
- väldigt stor nätadapter
- ingen G-Sync

Aorus X9, test unit provided by Gigabyte Germany.

Trots att X9 är utrustad med två grafikenheter visar Gigabyte upp en väldigt tunn och, med tanke på dess prestanda, hyfsat lätt spellaptop som kan imponera med sitt högkvalitativa metall-hölje, lekfulla design (oavsett om du gillar den eller inte) och ett mekaniskt tangentbord.

Det sistnämnda är en särskilt god nyhet och får 17 tums-enheten att stå ut bland många andra exklusiva laptops. Den har också bra anslutbarhet som kan hålla jämna steg med konkurrensen. X9 är till exempel utrustad med en modern Thunderbolt 3-port.

Vi var mindre nöjda med QHD-skärmen, som stödjer 120 Hz, har låg responstid och är certifierad för X-Rite Pantone, men som även har dålig kontrastratio, svärta och instabila bektraktningsvinklar. Vi blev också besvikna på batteritiden och systemets ljudnivå. 17 tums-enheten blir helt enkelt för högljudd vid 3D-applikationer för vår smak. Det bra ljudsystemet kan inte helt kompensera för dessa brister.

Att välja att använda SLI-teknologi har skapat ytterligare fördelar och svårigheter. Å ena sidan så kan Aorus X9 erbjuda överträffande prestanda i program kompatibla med dual-GPU, som till och med får modeller med GTX 1080 att skämmas. Å andra sidan så har den extra GPU:n - överraskande - en negativ inverkan på kylningen (temperatur och ljudnivå), energiåtgång och mobilitet - detta utöver faktum att alla aktuella spel inte ens stödjer SLI, vilket för dessa fall gör en extra GTX 1070 överflödig.

Med det höga beroendet på drivrutiner och en tendens till mikro-avbrott så är system med dual-GPU gjorda för riktiga entusiaster snarare än en genomsnittlig spelare. Om du helt enkelt vill slå på enheten och spela, utan att konstant behöva bry dig om drivrutinsuppdateringar och fortfarande förvänta dig bra prestanda för upplösningar över 1920x1080 så borde du hålla dig till en dator med en enkel GPU. (Med GeForce GTX 1070 eller GTX 1080). Generellt så är Aorus X9 inte riktigt tillräckligt bra för att komma med i vår rankinglista Topp 10 Speldatorer.
