Alienware alien Alpha Alpha i7 top match country official version of the game host out of the box evaluation

Since I have used Apple's iMac, the requirement to mute the computer will never return, and the cleanliness it brings to your desktop will deeply affect your feelings when using your computer. From then on, you can see the black pressure of the company's desktop. The host box will feel depressed.

But the fatal flaw of imac is its performance. For a "thin" word, the cook can simply resort to arbitrary means. It is maddening and frightening... In the imac, the 2.5-inch 5400 rpm notebook hard drive is used..... I feel that cooking with the apple is simply a major loss to the condom industry.

Because there is no mobile demand, the focus has fallen on macmini. According to the online tutorials, disassemble the machine, change the solid state, and install the system, everything went smoothly. At the same time, he deeply felt the strong industrial design and workmanship of Apple.
However, its performance is still embarrassing.
Missed the 2012 physical quad-core i7 version of the macmini, and there is no point in reentering the pit. Mini has made it a blessing for cooks to fall from a cannon to a desktop machine.....it's a good thing. Do not do it on the ipad, ipad not fan, more silent. . .

But also to be compact, the chassis mute, but also performance ... fish and bear's paw, this requirement is indeed a bit too much, eventually found the alpha of the Dell home alineware, new out of the 2016 R2, generally seen Performance rating, this small lunch box was actually twice as high as my own desktop computer (because imac was uncomfortable at the time, I was out of the box, because I didn’t play the game, it was a master at the time.撸 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13
But the problem came again, the latest out of this R2, i5 to 7K Ocean, i7 top allocation to 9K Ocean, 9K Ocean, I do not add a point directly to the x51 it ... ... then, ask for more points It, but also compact, silent chassis, but also performance and .... price ....

A friend recommended Meiya Haitao, the price has an advantage, but dell seems to have no global joint security this said, there is no warranty, it is too inflexible to use it (my request seems to get more and more inch)

The last time, my requirements are: compact, quiet chassis, but also performance and price ... have to have a warranty!

However, the base edge stirred, soap slippery people, and finally got Taiwan aiienware alpha generation top with i7 version , the state official. With official warranty for one year's maintenance, the price is nearly 2,000 yuan less than the new i5 version of the R2 (BNM 6999) .

Received the goods, three yards can be one, rest assured a section,
Official website search serial number, only see the machine model, and then call the official website phone, customer service officer turned the machine's serial number need to unseal to see the specific warranty, unpacking takes 3-5 working days,
In the end, in fact, it was reopened the next day. It was indeed a one-year repair. This time you can open up.


In addition, Jingdong licensed prices are included for comparison

The following box evaluation

Shunfeng, but can not take the air, more tolerated two days before they received. SF packaging is still very reassuring.
Tear off the film, around the piano paint process, could not help but take more than two



The front panel is two USB2.0 sockets

There are two usb3.0 sockets on the back panel, as well as network cables and hdmi in and out. In fact, the right panel is a white hard disk light, although the location is not particular, but it is better than nothing.


There is also a usb interface at the bottom, open the back cover to see, you can hide the wireless mouse and keyboard transmitter, hidden in it, very simple

Volume with a macmini level, if the metal shell, the cooling effect may be more perfect

On the back there is a official website printed official translated property words

With transformer and wire

Since the lunchbox only has an HDMI interface, the monitor is Dell's 2412M and can only be prepared in advance. (Well, make do, first, this is to change the rhythm of 2516D...)

Prepare SSD in advance, Samsung 750EVO

However, when it was turned on, it was noticed that the random hard disk speed was not slow, and win8.1 had its own system, and the boot speed was very fast.

In fact, if the boot speed requirements are not high, you can completely into the Western Digital 500G black disk, said performance and speed is not bad


With alien software, you can reconfirm the three-in-one:

Open the supportassist and you will see the shortcut service code, which is exactly the same as the fuselage and the box

Of course, the included software also includes a lighting control tool. It is worth mentioning that it is not known whether it is the reason of updating win10 or updating the software of the newcomer. The alpha generation even had a breathing lamp effect when win10 was on standby. ..

The following began to disassemble, change the hard disk, install the operating system.
Alpha disassemble difficulty index should be 0, very easy to remove, remove four screws, sew along the seam, open the small buckle, the back cover is opened, the hard disk is very easy to remove, and even arrow graphic guidance, Twist a screw to remove the hard disk. If you need to replace the memory, just flip the fuselage upside down to remove the frame. Open the back cover directly to see the hard disk as solid state hard drive installed system, still well, began to want to use alpha's own recovery tool to do the boot disk, but has been unable to succeed, and later used the domestic Aomei partitioning tool, direct migration of the system To the SSD, the first boot prompts need to insert the boot disk, it smoothly put the u disk has not been successful to insert it, even successfully passed, and then upgrade win10 (with alien pattern genuine win10) successful.

Originally from the belt is a 7200 rpm mechanical hard drive, no wonder speed is not slow

Put on solid state


Inverted look, cpu and graphics cards with independent OTES structure centrifugal fan, to ensure the mute and heat, without any screws, two fingers and a pinch to remove the fan and the mask.


Cpu real body, no obvious dismantling heat, look at other evaluations, the following is a bunch of silica gel


The legendary dual channel memory slot, the new R2 has only one single slot, is a single channel, and a generation of dual channel memory



Internal workmanship



The installation is completed.

The following began a long performance test, it can not be used to open the bar with a damp, it is changed after the solid-state score

Cpu information

RAM


Incidentally measure the 750EVO rating


PCMark 8 Rating (Roasted Chicken, Fan Calling)

Home conventional 3.0 scored 3820

Creative conventional 3.0 score is 3592

Work conventional 3.0 score is 3224


3DMark test:
Fire Strike's score: 3770 points.

Fire Strike Extreme score: 1873 points.

Fire Strike Ultra score: 604 points

Sky Diver's score: 12389

Conclusion: The desktop CPU and the NVIDIA GTX 860M alone provide powerful performance for alpha. The daily work is a snap (and completely silent, and late-stage fan noise obsessive-compulsive disorder patients report that the fan sound is perfectly acceptable at office, almost silent). Can afford most of the 3D games, if you move away from the rabbit

Recently, I plan to toss a family Gigabit LAN to form nas, I believe that a small lunch box will be more like a duck in such an environment.
