The game board is superior? After seeing the cow, it's easy to see

The game board is now different from the ordinary motherboard. Why is it so? It's not that the price is a lot more expensive. They all have the same chipset. Why is the game board so expensive, and is there really such a big difference?

Different names are different

The main board of the game should be separated from the ordinary main board. It is not only necessary to rely on the differences in the products. The first impression is very important. Obviously, this first impression is to start with the name. For example, the current main motherboard manufacturers' game motherboard series, naming will be different from their own ordinary product line: ASRock GAMING series, ASUS ROG STRIX series, ASUS TUF series, MSI GAMING series GIGABYTE AORUS series, Gigabyte GAMING series, GIGABYTE UD series, durable game player ROG series and many other representative main game motherboards.

These will allow you to understand the name at first glance. Oh, it turns out to be different. This is the game board.

The appearance should be more dazzling and more dazzling

Belief lights are a very important symbol of the game board. In particular, Xiao Bian does not like these RGB LED lights. After the power is turned on, especially the products with the glass side plate of the chassis, the cool colors are absolutely sensational. However, this is actually called light pollution, Xiao Bian has also said before, is interested in searching, not elaborate here.

Technology Addition Aura +65536

Technology plus achievements are genuine improvements. The main manifestation is in two aspects: sound card and network card. Let's talk about sound cards first. On hardware, ordinary motherboards are just onboard sound cards (chips are just codecs, processing is done by the CPU), and some game boards use hard sound cards for better sound quality. But for the game player, it is not only the sound quality but also the unique optimization function. For example, some game boards have targeted optimizations in design tuning—highlighting walking sounds, precise sound positioning, easy judgments, etc. (eg Asus's Sonic Wave Radar II).

In addition, there must be corresponding changes in workmanship. In response to the needs of game players, manufacturers will make special efforts to connect sound cards on motherboards to better reflect the sound quality. This will also lead to higher costs. There is the software optimization part that we mentioned just now. At present, many game motherboards will be equipped with HiFi sound quality, such as magic sound technology of Gigabyte motherboards, ASUS masters of ASUS motherboards, etc., as well as some intelligent sound adjustment technologies, to bring more Good game sound experience.

Then there is the network card. Players have high requirements for network stability. This is essential for online game players (I believe most game players are online-based). Therefore, the performance of network cards is also very important. Games motherboards are often equipped with professional-grade game network cards, mostly Gigabit network speed Killer network cards, for gamers to provide a more stable network environment, better protection for smooth running games, of course, costly.

Overclocking can not be less

More rich overclocking settings, BIOS more detailed adjustment settings is also a major feature of the game board. This can facilitate the player to adjust the computer, including frequency, function, etc. The options are very detailed. Of course, this is also designed for the needs of high-end players. However, some products that use non-overclocked chipsets do not have this feature.

A lot of additional features

In addition to these, there are many additional features of the game board. For example, the ASUS GAMING series motherboards turn the RAM into the hard disk ROG RamCache software; ASRock provides a dedicated USB interface for the GAMING series motherboards, keyboard master software, etc. Maximize the added value of the motherboard, otherwise, what is the game board pinch?

As for the power supply module design of God level, superb workmanship, and extremely rich external interfaces, these are standard on high-end motherboards, and may not necessarily be the exclusive features of game boards. Xiao Bian does not have much to say. Someone may say that it's good but I don't buy it because the price/performance ratio is too low. Xiao Bian has different views: As with exams, it is easy to improve from failing to 60 points; from 90 to 100 points, it takes several times of hard work to have a chance. The same is true of the game board, which is better on a good basis, but the money spent has doubled, and the principle of a penny-and-delivery item is not particularly applicable here.
