[PConline evaluation]AMD graphics cards have become the Red Legion, and the manufacturers in the A-card camp also like the passionate red style, especially Dylan, whose series of fiery AMD graphics cards have left a deep impression on players. Unconsciously, Dylan Company has been established for 18 years, and Chinese attaches great importance to such an important day as 18 years old. Therefore, Dylan Company launched an 18th anniversary version of RX 580 8G X series graphics card this year, with a white appearance and a design style quite different from the usual Dylan A card.

　　Why did Dylan introduce a graphics card model different from previous products? This has to start from history — — In 1999, Dylan Hengjin Company was established in Beijing, which was the first company to sell ATI/AMD graphics cards in mainland China and the first brand in mainland China to be awarded the best partner of ATI. In 2012, the brand was officially changed from Dylan Hengjin to Dylan, so now Dylan is not just an abbreviation for everyone to save trouble. The official name is Dylan.

　　Tracing back to the history of Dylan’s constant progress, what we mean by Dylan is Beijing Dylan Technology. It has been 18 years since its establishment in 1999, which is why Dylan made this graphics card an 18th anniversary edition.

　　In the past 18 years, Dylan Company started with Rage 128 graphics card, and then launched Radi Ji Killer, Cool Energy and Devil /Devil series after changing Dylan’s brand. From last year’s Radeon RX 400 series, it launched a brand-new X-Series graphics card, which has now become Dylan’s key product line, and two series of X Ares and X Warrior have been derived. The commemorative version selected this time is Radeon RX 580 8G X series.

　　In Dylan’s graphics card product line, it used to be black+red, but this commemorative RX 580 8G X graphics card is pure white, with a white radiator, a white backplane and a white PCB. The shape is the same as the previous X-God of War series, that is, the color has completely turned white (the X-shaped logo is dotted with silver gray). Many players may think of a manufacturer in the N card camp who has also made pure white graphics cards, including albino PCB. Which of these two white graphics cards do you think is better?

　　The packaging of graphics cards has also changed. The overall color is white, and the waist is red. The above is the evolution history of Dylan graphics cards, which records the development highlights of Dylan graphics cards in various periods in detail, including the advent of X series graphics cards.

There is also an X series logo on the manual, which is also white.

Graphic card front

　　The graphics card interfaces are three DP 1.2, one HDMI and one DVI, which are also standard for AMD high-end graphics cards, and support up to 4K resolution.

　　Dylan RX 580 8G X graphics card uses an 8pin power supply interface, and there is an LED light at the top of the radiator, which will emit red LED light when working.

　　The back of the graphics card is a metal back plate, which is also white. The back plate of Dylan RX 580 8G X commemorative graphics card has a good texture, similar to the effect of glass sandblasting, giving people a pure and flawless feeling.

　　After removing the radiator, you can see that the PCB is completely bleached.

　　This graphics card still uses Dylan’s X God of War radiator, double fan and four heat pipes design, and the heat sink and heat pipe are all nickel-plated to improve the oxidation resistance.

　　In the power supply part, Dylan RX 580 8GB X commemorative graphics card is equipped with 6+1 phase power supply, and the video memory is powered by 1 phase alone. The GPU core is 6 phases, using solid-state capacitors, R22 inductors and 1 upper MOSFET and 2 lower MOSFET. Among them, there are 2 Anson 4C03N and 1 4C08N, which are packaged in SO-8. The maximum current can reach 52A and 136A, and the ESR equivalent resistance is 2.1 milliohms. The electrical performance is very good.

　　The master control of core power supply is IR3567B, which is a dual-channel 6+2-phase power supply master control, and supports AMD SVI1/SVI2 power supply specification, which is very common from AMD public version to manufacturer’s non-public version graphics card.

Independent 1-phase power supply for video memory

　　Dylan RX 580 8G X commemorative graphics card uses SK Hynix’s GDDR5 memory particles, with a single capacity of 1GB, a total of 8GB and a bit width of 256bit.

(In order to optimize the reading experience, the 18th anniversary edition of Dylan RX580 8G X Series in the table below is referred to as Dylan Rx580 for short. )

　　In the theoretical test part of 3DMark, in addition to the commonly used FireStrike Ultra&Extreme test, the DirectX 12 benchmark test Time Spy newly launched by 3DMark is added, so as to bring you a more comprehensive reference.

　　Summary of theoretical test:In terms of theoretical performance test, Dylan RX 580 8G X commemorative graphics card scored 6209 and 3279 points at 2K and 4K resolutions respectively, which was significantly higher than the previous generation RX 480 graphics card and slightly superior to the public GTX 1060 graphics card.

　　The future will undoubtedly be the world of DX12. In this test, we have selected four representative DX12 game masterpieces, including Tomb Raider 10, Singular Ash, deus ex: Human Broken and the latest Ghost Action: Wilderness, which are native to DX12.

　　测试小结：从测试结果来看迪兰RX 580 8G X纪念版显卡在1080p分辨率下可以保证4款DX12大作中最高画质下的流畅运行，游戏性能比GTX 1060显卡更有优势。

　　我们将采用三种应用场景来对平台功耗进行测量，分别是3DMark压力测试拷机、游戏拷机以及待机状态下。

　　功耗测试小结：由于性能提升，迪兰RX 580 8G X纪念版显卡的功耗也不免有所增加，待机64W还好，不过游戏中的功耗达到了308W，在能效这一点上要比GTX 1060显卡吃亏一些。

　　为了测试迪兰RX 580显卡的极限温度，我们采用了3DMark压力测试来测试。

　　测试小结：3DMark拷机测试中迪兰RX 580 8G X纪念版显卡的最高温度达到了86°C，这个温度还是挺高的，迪兰这卡的温度还有调整的空间。

　　这里我们噪音仪测试显卡运行3DMark压力测试满载时的风扇噪音。

　　测试小结：噪音控制也不错，拷机时风扇噪音为66.5分贝，记录的风扇转速在2000RPM左右，能够听到明显的风扇声，还好不算很吵，只是对静音要求较高的玩家可能不会满意，玩家可以考虑自己设置风扇控制策略，进一步降低噪音。

About noise:
　　0-20 decibels: very quiet, almost imperceptible; 20-40 decibels: quiet, like whispering; 40-60 decibels: general indoor conversation; 60-70 decibels: noisy: harmful to nerves; 70-90 dB: It is noisy and nerve cells are destroyed. 90-100 decibels: increased noise and hearing loss; 100-120 decibels: unbearable, temporarily deaf after staying for one minute. Above 120 decibels: extremely deaf or totally deaf; About 300 dB or above: 20km of people in Fiona Fang are irreparably deaf.

　　Ladder diagram description:Based on the above test results, Dylan RX 580 8G X series 18th anniversary graphics card is located above RX 480 and at the same level as other RX 580/R9 Fury graphics cards.

　　RX 580 graphics card was released in the first half of this year, and the manufacturer’s non-public version has almost been released. Dylan Rx5808Xseries 18th anniversary graphics card is improved based on Dylan Rx5808Xares graphics card, mainly to commemorate the 18th anniversary of Dylan Technology Company, which also means that they have been working in the mainland market for 18 years. The launch of this commemorative version will give Dylan fans a chance to collect different products. After all, the graphics cards with pure white appearance and PCB are still rare.

　　There is nothing to say about the performance of Dylan RX 580 8G X series 18th anniversary graphics card. Compared with the previous generation RX 480, it has made obvious progress, and it is no problem to cope with the DX12 game masterpiece with 1080p resolution. However, the temperature and noise performance of Dylan’s graphics card are average, some of which are regrettable, and it is not suitable for players with high requirements on temperature and noise.

　　The standard version of RX 580 8G X Ares graphics card is priced at 2149 yuan, while the white version of Dylan RX 580 8G X series 18th anniversary graphics card is priced at 2249 yuan, which is only expensive in 100 yuan. Considering the cost increase brought by white radiator, PCB and backplane, Dylan is sincere in pricing this commemorative graphics card, and players don’t need to pay too high a price for their beliefs, so Dylan fans can really consider this commemorative graphics card.
