RGB is known to improve host performance by 20%.
Even SSDs have been brought with RGB lighting, and the first RGB PCIe 4.0 SSD in China has been launched, which is this BIWIN WOOKONG series NV7400 HEATSINK.
In recent years, the price of solid-state drives has been declining as a whole, especially the launch of domestic solid-state solutions, this year, with the development of AI driving the growth of storage capacity several times, global technology companies have built data centers, and SSDs have also increased in price.
PCIe 5.0 has not yet been popularized, PCIe 4.0 is still the mainstream product in the market, the domestic SSD brand, we have to talk about HP, Acer, Predator storage products production and operation agent BIWIN, as one of the few listed companies in the field of storage in China, with strong hardware and software strength, Predator Ice Blade and popular GM7 are all developed, produced and operated by BIWIN, is the real domestic storage field behind-the-scenes boss, R & D and production strength is quite strong, quality can be assured.
The appearance is in place, and the appearance is domineering
BIWIN's WOOKONG Wukong series is named after the representative of the Monkey King in the mainland mythological story, and this HEATSINK vest version with RGB lighting is inspired by the colorful spirit stones in the myth of Nuwa mending the sky, Nuwa is to fill the gap in the sky through seven different colors of stones, each colorful spirit stone has its own attributes and power, and the last spirit stone fell into the mortal world, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon to become a spirit stone monkey, that is, Sun Wukong.
The NV7400 HEATSINK is based on this story, making the NV7400, a highly acclaimed SSD, into an RGB vest model, and giving it this name. It should be said that BIWIN's DX100 light is really beautiful, and the large area of RGB has no fancy other decorations, which completely shows the beauty of light, and this NV7400 HEATSINK complements each other, the light effect is good-looking, not embarrassing, and it will not dominate.
In comparison, my Lianli RGB power cord is too bright, although I like RGB, but I like the sense of high-end, play the table for three years, buy thousands of atmosphere lighting accessories, high-end light has several characteristics:
1. Stepless color matching, the more colors, the better, BIWIN's SSD and memory are 16 million, the benefit of rich colors is to connect naturally, don't underestimate this difference, the sense of luxury comes from here;
2. The more lamp beads, the better, DX100 officially advertises 8 groups of lighting effect matrix, the naked eye looks at NV7400 HEATSINK at least 3 lamp beads, the more lamp beads, the richer the color;
3. a light guide strip
,The light guide strip plays the role of soft light,A lot of low explosion RGB style is because it's too bright,I can't feel the sense of luxury at all,My side glass of the creation god is sunglasses effect,It's used to reduce light。
Although I like RGB atmosphere,But too much light will be noisy,I didn't use a large-area RGB fan for this host,In addition to the light board that comes with the creation god,I didn't buy additional light board accessories,The only thing I regret is that the water cooling tube is installed on the right,Affect the beautiful memory light。
BIWIN's RGB lighting effect supports the joint control of the light effect software of mainstream motherboard manufacturers on the market, I tried to upgrade Armoury Crate and still couldn't recognize the SSD, it is estimated that I will have to wait for a while to synchronize, but I have been using this rainbow lighting effect, in fact, it does not affect it.
Excellent and impeccable performance
As a high-end PCIe 4.0 SSD, the read speed of 7400MB/s has been outstanding, and it is basically the first choice for high-end installations.
The test on the computer is the most intuitive, this time it is with the AMD platform, you can directly measure the official nominal value, NV7400 HEATSINK official nominal 7450MB/s, in the CrystalDiskMark test, BIWIN NV7400 HEATSINK SSD in 1G small file measurement results are read speed 7441.72MB/s and write speed 6713.59MB/s, from the data point of view is the peak level of PCIe 4.0.
Intel I also tested, 1G small file measured the result is 7124.89MB/s read speed and 6490.43MB/s write speed.
ATTO Disk Benchmark tests the reading performance of small files, starting from 512B to 64MB files, and the read and write speeds from 64KB are maintained at about 4.7GB/s and 5GB/s respectively, which is very stable.
BIWIN NV7400 HEATSINK has a continuous test temperature of 39°C, and the version without vest has been tested at more than 40°C before.
Unboxing
BIWIN's Wukong series is its high-end line, the brand has worked hard in this series, whether it is the packaging, the appearance of the product itself or the tuning, it is impeccable, plus the design of Chinese style, it is the icing on the cake, NV7400 HEATSINK's outer packaging is more luxurious than Wukong DX100.
NV7400 HEATSINK comes with a metal thermal vest, which is a very recognizable design, but it should be noted that the size of this SSD will be relatively large, I measured that the two slots of the ROG APEX motherboard near the CPU cannot be installed, and the motherboard thermal armor cannot be removed, I installed it through the MIMM.2 expansion card.
Behind the hard disk is some hard disk information, this side of the heat is less, so do not move the sticker, note that the sticker is torn or lost is not warranted.
NV7400 HEATSINK and NV7400 are the same single-sided PCB design, the particles are BIWIN's own packaged long-term particles, the main control is Lianru MAP1602A-F3C, using 12nm process, no independent cache design, supporting HMB technology and NVMe 2.0 protocol.
NV7400 HEATSINK's appearance is really good, the same configuration is a few hundred less expensive than the one without RGB, if it is an RGB appearance party or the motherboard does not have thermal armor, I think this HEATSINK version can be preferred, if it is used for PS5 or a thin and light notebook, you can choose NV7400 without RGB lighting effects.
Summary of the class representatives
This BIWIN NV7400 HEATSINK SSD has a flagship-level 7400MB/s and 6500MB/s peak read and write speed, which is the peak performance of PCIe 4.0, according to the official introduction, each NV7400 has to go through 300 hours of high-temperature continuous read and write test before leaving the factory, 3000 times of abnormal power failure test and 6000 times of sleep wake-up test, 2TB capacity write life of 4000TBW, BIWIN is a real domestic factory quality, It also provides a 5-year replacement warranty.
What I like the most is that it has a rare high-value appearance on the market, and who doesn't love a vest with its own glare and can cool down?
