"I. Preface: chicken eating games are hot, and the price of memory is not lower
On March 23, 2017, South Korean developer bluehole and Brendan Greene, producer of h1z1 and armed raid 3, jointly launched Jedi survival: escape, which won the love of the majority of players with a highly open world and unique competitive mode.
According to the game market data of 2017 released by Superdata data organization, the game Jedi survival was launched for eight months in 2017, with a total revenue of US $714 million, about RMB 4.48 billion, and this number is still rising.
Though the game player make complaints about the pot, it is not important for the game player. The game player has been concerned about whether the game experience has been promoted because the Jedi survival has been optimized by the players since the birth of the game. It not only takes the configuration but also the server is always dropping, and the 8GB memory is not enough at all, and GTX1080 can only reach 40-60 frames.
After nearly a year of optimization, the game experience has improved slightly. At the same time, the national service is about to go online to solve the problem of old server disconnection. However, the recommended configuration given by the domestic official website is still not low, the processor and graphics card have reached the mainstream level, and the memory capacity has also increased to 16GB.
On the other hand, the storage demand of mobile electronic devices is increasing, and the number of mobile phones with 6GB and 8GB memory is emerging. In addition, with the decline of PC market, memory particle manufacturers such as Samsung and Hercules will naturally give priority to meet the demand of mobile market, which leads to the soaring PC memory price.
In 2015, you could buy an 8GB DDR4 memory for less than 300 yuan, but now the price of 8GB DDR4 memory has doubled to 729 yuan, which was close to 1000 yuan at the end of last year.
Recently, Yingchi released the latest game series memory, game ii-3000mhz. From its name, we can see that it is different from the hall of fame and will series. The game series is equipped with cool RGB lights, focusing on the cost-effective game market. It is positioned higher than the general series and slightly lower than the hall of fame series.
The price of a single gamerii ddr4-3000 memory is only 679 yuan, while the current 8GB ddr4-2400mhz memory on the market also costs about 700 yuan.
The default frequency of Yingchi game II memory reaches 3000MHz. Players can also overclock according to their own needs.

3、 Performance test: stable overclocking 3466mhz, comprehensive performance increased by 12%
In order to ensure full memory performance, Intel i7-8700k and a thousand yuan integrated water-cooled radiator are selected as the processors of the test platform to maintain the high performance level of the processor.
In this test, six test software are selected, namely CPU-Z, aida64, Sandra, WinRAR, wpirme and memtest64, to test the read, write, copy, stability and performance improvement before and after overclocking.
——CPU-Z_ 1.8.1.1
Use CPU-Z software to view CPU information. The software is very simple to use. After downloading, you can directly click the file to see the CPU name, manufacturer, kernel process, internal and external clocks, local clock monitoring, memory and other parameters.
At the same time, the CPU performance test function is also provided in the test score interface of the software. The test is divided into two modes: single thread / multi thread. The two modes test the single thread and multi thread of the CPU respectively, and then give the corresponding score as a reference.
↑ ↑ ↑ CPU-Z before overclocking (left) and after overclocking (right)
The default actual frequency of the memory is 1500mhz, the equivalent frequency is 3000MHz, and the timing is 16-18-18-38; After overclocking to 3466mhz, the actual frequency is 1733mhz, the timing is still 16-18-18-38, and the delay does not increase.
↑ ↑ ↑ enable x.m.p setting in ASUS motherboard BIOS
To obtain high-frequency memory performance, you need to turn on the x.m.p (extreme memory profile) setting in the motherboard BIOS so that the memory can work at the default 3000MHz, otherwise it will only run at the lowest frequency of 2133mhz.
↑ ↑ ↑ select the appropriate memory frequency
It is worth noting that the overclocking ability of memory particles is limited. Even if there are many memory frequencies displayed in the motherboard BIOS, it does not mean that your memory module supports these frequencies.
Therefore, players should overclock the memory according to the overclocking suggestions provided by the official. Otherwise, the system may crash or the computer hardware may be damaged.
↑ ↑ ↑ CPU-Z SPD information
SPD information shows that the default maximum frequency is 2133mhz. After x.m.p setting is turned on, it will automatically increase to 3000MHz.
——AIDA64
Aida64 is a tool for testing software and hardware system information, formerly Everest. It provides benchmarks for CPU, disk, and memory. Aida64 provides a 64 bit benchmark to measure the speed of computer processing various data tasks. The memory and cache benchmark can be used to analyze the memory bandwidth and latency of the system. The processor benchmark uses MMX and 3DNOW! And SSE instructions.

Due to the difference of software calculation method and test content, the speed may be different from aida64 test value.
In the case of default frequency (3000MHz), the floating-point bandwidth of memory is 29.62gb/s, the integer bandwidth is 29.92gb/s, and the overall bandwidth is 29.77gb/s; After overclocking (3466mhz), the floating-point bandwidth performance is improved by 12.7%, the integer bandwidth performance is improved by 12.3%, and the overall bandwidth is improved by 12.5%.
——WinRAR
WinRAR is the most popular decompression and compression software at present. It perfectly supports zip files. At the same time, it also has a built-in performance benchmark tool to monitor the compression / decompression ability of computer processors.
↑ ↑ ↑ WinRAR benchmark
Under the memory default frequency (3000MHz), the WinRAR benchmark score is 20008kb / s. After overclocking to 3466mhz, the WinRAR benchmark score is 21366kb / s, and the performance is improved by 6.7%.
——wPrime
Wprime is a software that tests the computing power of computers (especially the parallel ability) by calculating prime numbers. However, unlike super PI, which can only support single threads, wprime can support up to 16 threads, that is, it can support eight core processors, and it is more accurate than super PI in testing the performance of multi-core processors.
Due to the small amount of 32m operation, it is not easy to obtain the impact of memory frequency change on the performance. Therefore, this test is obtained under 1024m operation mode.
↑ ↑ ↑ wpirme (1024m) time-consuming comparison
In order to reduce the error caused by external reasons, test three times at each memory frequency and take the average value, with an interval of 3 minutes after each test, so as not to affect the accuracy of the next test result due to the high processor temperature.
Under the memory default frequency (3000MHz), the test score of wprime (1024m) is 106.588s. After overclocking to 3466mhz, the test score is 106.464s, the performance is improved by 0.1%, and the score difference is less than 1%, which can be regarded as an error.
——MemTest64
The memtest64 desktop memory detection tool produced by techpowerup is not the same product as the previous memtest pro. After testing, memtest64 is more advanced. It will not be divided into several windows to test separately because of its large memory.
It can detect all memory at one time. There is no problem with 4G or 64g. It can be tested directly under the win system desktop without going to the DOS interface. It supports 32-bit and 64 bit systems, Win XP / 7 / 8 / 10 and winpe.
↑ ↑ ↑ memtest64 stability test
In the memtest64 test, 10 cycle tests are selected, and check stop the test when a memory error is encountered. The test did not encounter the problem of program error. The memory passed the 10 cycle test perfectly at the frequency of 3000MHz.
There are 6 software and 9 items in this test. In addition to the 0.1% error of wprime, which can be regarded as error, there are 8 item test scores. After synthesizing and taking the average score, it is concluded that the performance improvement range after overclocking to 3466mhz is 12%.
Compared with 3000MHz, the frequency of 3466mhz increases by 15%, while the actual read-write performance increases by 12%. It can be approximately considered that the actual read-write performance increases by 0.8% for every 1% frequency increase.
