Unlike most Shenzhou gaming laptops, the Shenzhou God of War T8 Pro uses Quanta Mold, and we have previously tested the i7-14650HX with RTX 4060 version, and found that it performs much better than the T8 with Blue Sky Mold. (Click me to review)
Recently, Shenzhou God of War T8 Pro launched a new configuration of i7-13700HX+RTX 4070, compared to the previous test, its core configuration is more biased towards graphics performance, and the cost performance is good.
So what is the overall performance of this computer? Today we will briefly analyze:
神舟 战神T8 Pro E73
Swipe left to see the interface
Left side of the fuselage
The right side of the fuselage
Rear fuselage
It is configured as follows:
i7-13700HX processor
RTX 4070 8GB 独立显卡（140W）
16GB DDR5 4800MHz 内存
1TB SSD
16-inch 2560×1600 resolution, 100% sRGB color gamut, 165Hz refresh rate, IPS screen
厚度 24.5~31.7mm
Weight 2.66kg
The adapter weighs 671g
The reference price is 6699 yuan
Its advantages and disadvantages are as follows:
Merit!
1. The comprehensive heat dissipation performance is relatively balanced
2. The screen specifications are higher
3. The keyboard layout is reasonable
Shortcoming!
1. The all-plastic body is relatively thick and heavy
2. CPU performance release is relatively conservative
3. The lower bezel of the screen is wider
【Upgrade Suggestions】
This laptop is not difficult to disassemble, and the back cover can be removed by removing all the screws on the bottom surface.
The single-channel 16GB DDR5 5600MHz RAM is sufficient for most purposes (running at 4800MHz due to CPU limitations), and the machine has two RAM slots, which can be added if needed.
The SSD has a capacity of 1TB, a Phison OEM disk E21T main controller, supports PCIe 4.0×4 and NVMe, and the machine also has a 2280 M.2 slot, which can be installed with an SSD if necessary.
【Purchase Suggestion】
1. You need a gaming laptop with a more balanced performance
2. There are requirements for the rationality of the keyboard layout
3,Low requirements for portability The Shenzhou God of War T8 Pro E73 was replaced with the previous generation i7-13700HX processor, and the graphics card was upgraded to RTX 4070, which pays more attention to graphics performance and performs better in games with high graphics pressure. In terms of screen, the measured color gamut volume is 111.4%sRGB, and the color gamut covers 98.8%sRGB. Using sRGB as a reference, the average ΔE is 1.6 and the maximum ΔE is 4.29. The maximum brightness of the measured screen is 562nits.
In terms of interfaces, there is a USB-A 5Gbps and a 3.5mm audio jack on the left side of the fuselage.
There are two USB-A 5Gbps ports on the right side of the fuselage;
There is a USB-C 10Gbps (support 100W PD charging and DP1.4 independent video output), HDMI2.1 interface (independent graphics output), RJ45 network cable interface and power interface on the rear side of the fuselage.
In terms of noise, it has a decibel level of 56.2dB at full load and 57.2dB for strong cooling. (32.3dB ambient noise)
In terms of battery life, in the core display mode, the PCmark10 battery life test score is 5 hours and 20 minutes. (Scene: Modern Office)
Today's talk about this Shenzhou God of War T8 Pro E73 in JD self-operated price is7499element,There was 6599 yuan when doing activities,PDDThe current price6699element(The price of the front desk6599 is512G hard disk version)It is a more balanced choice in the overall performance of the T8 series。
So if you want a gaming laptop with good value for money and balanced overall performance, then this computer can be considered.
But if you have certain requirements for portability, then this computer may not be for you.
【Heat Analysis】
The picture above is a real picture of the disassembly of Shenzhou God of War T8 Pro E73, a combination of 5 heat pipes and dual fans, and Thor Hunting Blade 16 is the same mold, the main difference is that there is no small fan installed above the PCH.
Room temperature 25°C
Reflectivity 1.0
BIOS version: SP162
In the full load state, turn on the rage mode, the power consumption fluctuates to a certain extent, the CPU temperature is stable at about 72°C, the power consumption is about 37W, the P-core frequency is 2.0GHz, and the E-core is 1.8GHz;
The graphics card temperature is 85.6°C, the power consumption is 133W, and the frequency is 2175MHz.
After turning on strong cooling, the data changes very little, and the GPU temperature drops to 84.2°C. Single-baked Stress FPU, CPU temperature is maintained at 77°C, power consumption is 90W, P-core frequency is 3.4GHz, E-core frequency is 2.8GHz.
Single-bake Furmark, the graphics card temperature is maintained at 84.7°C, the power consumption is 140W, and the frequency is 2190MHz.
The surface temperature is shown in the graph above, with the keyboard keycaps at a maximum temperature of 45.4°C on the "F11" key, around 36.8°C near the WASD key, and 36.7°C near the arrow key. The temperature of the left wrist rest is 27.0°C.
Overall, the heat dissipation performance of the Shenzhou God of War T8 Pro E73 is decent, whether it is noise, surface temperature or performance release, it is slightly worse than the previously tested 4060 model, considering that the heat dissipation pressure of the 4070 should be smaller, this may be caused by individual differences.
【The Pig King's Conscience Conclusion】
The entire Shenzhou God of War
The T8 series is a bit confusing, with the T8, T8 Plus, and T8 Pro being launched this year, in addition to last year's T8 D9.
The T8 Pro we are talking about today belongs to the more balanced one, its price is between T8 Plus and T8, and the overall performance is the most competitive among the three T8 this year
。
Although the T8 Plus has a good mold texture, it has a high premium and does not have outstanding core performance;
The T8 is not tuned in place, and its competitiveness in the same price range is relatively average.
Compared with the previously evaluated i7-14650HX with RTX 4060 model, today's i7-13700HX with RTX 4070 model has a good price-performance ratio during promotion, giving players with higher requirements for graphics performance a new choice.
However, JD's self-operated price is indeed expensive now that it has risen to 7499.
Also, its original little crab 8851BE WiFi 6 network card performance is relatively average, if there are certain requirements for the wireless network card, then you can also consider replacing the network card.
Finally, I would like to make a suggestion to Shenzhou's marketing department: the current naming rules of the T8 family are too complicated
It is hoped that the naming of new products in the future can be made more intuitive and reduce the purchase threshold of consumers.
