The definition of the 7 series is stronger than the 6 series, weaker than the 8 series, if the 6 series such as the original 650\/660\/670 is the mid-end, the 8 series such as 835\/845\/855 is the high-end flagship, then the 7 series such as 710\/712\/730 is the definition of the flagship, can meet 80% of the demand, and the price is not high. At a time when the performance of today's flagships is in excess, the 7 Series is absolutely adequate, and the price is not high.
Moreover, the traditional process is the degree of refinement, the most obvious embodiment is power consumption, in the nanometer unit, as we all know, the flagship 855 of the 8 series now uses a 7 nanometer process, and the latest product 730 of the 7 series is 8 nanometers, some people may say that the difference of one nanometer is very big, but the actual use is not so, although the process is more important, Their main differences are in frequency and performance, and the real process is not the most important right now.
1. Different models.
The models of the 7 series and 8 series chips are different.
2. Different functions.
The 7 series is a TV graphics chip; The 8 series are computer memory chips.
3. Different performance.
7 series performance of the preceding paragraph; And the 8 series is the new one with better performance.
The 8-series chipset is not much different from the 7-series chipset. The 8 series mainly supports the 1150 interface, and the 7 series supports the 1155 interface, and the two are incompatible. The main thing is the increase in the number of S3 and USB3 interface searches (native, non-third-party chip bridging).
For example, the Z77 chipset has two native S3 interfaces, and the Z87 has six. The Z77 has four USB3.0 ports, and the Z87 has six. The Z87 also added a new Dynamic Disk acceleration (DSA) feature, which was not available on the Z77.
The 8-series chipset is not much different from the 7-series chipset. The 8 series mainly supports the 1150 interface, and the 7 series supports the 1155 interface, and the two are incompatible.
The 8 series motherboard also came with an H81 chipset, but the appearance has not yet seen the major motherboard manufacturers have products. B85 does. The 8 series motherboards of the first and second tier manufacturers seem to have strengthened in terms of sound, such as the Realtek ALC1150 on-board sound chip of the three manufacturers of ASUS\/Huayang\/MSI, the second generation Hi-Fi 3D motherboard of Intai, and the innovative Core 3D of Gigabit.
The 8-series chip is more high-end and more powerful than the 7-series chip. The so-called 7 series and 8 series chips generally refer to Qualcomm Snapdragon series chips, 8 series is Qualcomm Snapdragon 8gen1, 8gen2 and other current mainstream high-end flagship chips, its performance is the highest, of course, the price is also the highest.
The 7 series is the Snapdragon 7gen1 and 7gen2, which are chips for mid-market users. Snapdragon differentiates different market customer groups with different prices and different performance, which is market segmentation.
The 8-series chip is more high-end than the 7-series chip, and it can support some functions that the 7-series does not support, but for low-end users, their host prices are relatively low, and there is only one graphics card, which is almost no difference when you do not use a hard disk array
