With the rise of mining years ago, graphics cards, especially high-end cards, have been constantly hyped, and one card is hard to find. Therefore, there is a strange phenomenon in DIY. There is no graphics card installed in the whole machine. Why? The main reason is that the graphics card is too expensive, and those of us who have actual needs can only continue to wait and see, and the soaring price is even more desperate. The introduction of Lao Huang's frequency lock card and the recent emergence of mine disasters finally let us parties who are holding money and watching see hope in despair. While the price of graphics card tends to be stable, I finally installed a new machine for myself (the installation sticker will be released later).
I chose Onda this time mainly because of its cost performance, and partly because of my feeling. The first time I chose Onda was in the MP3 era. At that time, due to the technical blockade, the price of MP3 was always above 1,000 yuan, but Onda cut the price to several hundred yuan. I first saw it in the advertisement of computer fans (accidentally exposed my age). At that time, I was still a student, and the price of 1000 was prohibitive, and I had to scrimp and save for several months. This is my first time to use Onda's products, and the playback effect in MP3 player is not bad. This is my first impression of it. Later, with the rise of tablet, my first tablet was Onda VIW20. Although there is a little flaw, I just brush and gradually learned to brush by myself. After so many years, the performance of this product can't keep up, but I don't want to lose it. Brush is used as an electronic photo album. With the increasing use of Onda products, the cognition of this brand is becoming more and more profound. Although Onda has been tepid in DIY brand, and has produced many mine cards and plates, it still has a certain reputation in the mine circle. Everyone knows that the mine card does not support overclocking, but it needs to run 24 hours a day, and the quality is still very high. Onda is also an old board factory in China. At that time 1050TI shopping market, 799 was really delicious! ! ! Of course, the users who grabbed the card naturally benefited. Onda was later severely punished by Lao Huang, and the supply of chips was suppressed. Therefore, this time Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 will start directly. I believe that there will not be many sources of goods for the activity price of 4799, so I won't say much.
Simple unpacking:
Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card adopts a honeycomb shape in the packaging, and with the RTX LOGO full of science and technology, the simple style is far from the mighty domineering, but it is more durable, in line with the current minimalist mainstream.
The side has the ID of the graphics card and the service QR code, which is convenient for after-sales service. I am more concerned about the warranty period of the original factory in these three years. Graphics cards are different from other accessories and have higher value. Generally, if something goes wrong, the maintenance cost is higher. The three-year warranty of the original factory makes me more practical, and the courier fee for problems within three years also highlights Onda's confidence in the quality of its own products.
RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card is well protected in packaging, effectively preventing express violent transportation.
Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card adopts non-public design, and the length of the graphics card is 32CM longer than the main circuit board of the graphics card, which greatly increases the length of the radiator for better heat dissipation service.
Onda RTX3060 aegis 12GD6 graphics card adopts 8P power supply interface to meet the power supply requirements of RTX3060 170W.
Interface: Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card supports 3 DP interfaces and 1 HDMI interfaces, and supports up to 4 4K monitors.
In terms of heat dissipation, the heat sink can accommodate three fans after being lengthened, which ensures the heat dissipation of the graphics card. By increasing the air volume through more heat dissipation fans, the fan speed is effectively reduced, and finally the balance between heat dissipation and noise is achieved.
Onda RTX3060 aegis 12GD6 graphics card uses a 9CM ball fan. At present, there are two kinds of fans commonly used in graphics cards, oil-sealed bearings or ball bearings. The sound of the oil seal bearing is light, but after one year, the internal oil is dry and the noise rises linearly, which needs maintenance. Compared with oil-sealed bearings, ball bearings have slightly higher noise and longer service life, and the noise will not increase after several years of use, so they do not need maintenance. This is the fan characteristic of two different bearings.
In order to reduce noise, Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card adopts silent fan page design, which reduces wind noise and increases air intake. At the same time, by adding fan pages, the low-speed air intake is increased, which effectively reduces the fan speed. In addition, intelligent temperature control, static graphics card low-power fan, combined with PWM speed regulation technology to achieve mute.
Like most non-public graphics cards, Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card adopts EPC shell on the front to reduce the weight of the graphics card and the pressure of PCIE slot. In order to reflect the better texture, the texture design of metal wire drawing is adopted, and the imitation metal material is adopted. However, we have to say that these four silk-screen screws are a big failure. The obvious plastic screws feeling is that it is better to give up than to destroy the overall feeling.
Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card uses metal backboard to increase the strength of the graphics card and improve the heat dissipation on the back of the graphics card. At the same time, holes are made in the corresponding core position and tail heat dissipation fin position to promote air circulation and increase heat dissipation effect.
Disassembly: complete the analysis of working materials.
Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card is easy to disassemble, just separate the interface baffle screw from the backplane screw.
It can be seen that the motherboard of the graphics card is shorter than the radiator. This design can prolong the radiator and increase the space of radiator fins can greatly increase the heat dissipation area. At the same time, to make room for fans, three fans can be supported to increase the air intake through multiple fans instead of increasing the fan speed. This design not only increases the heat dissipation effect but also reduces the noise, so it is adopted by many RTX3060 graphics cards.
Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card installed heat dissipation stickers in areas with high calorific value to ensure the stable operation of the graphics card.
Five 6MM heat pipes are used on the radiator, which increases the heat conduction effect.
The heat sink adopts fin piercing technology, and the fin is plated with nickel beautifully, which can effectively resist metal oxidation and facilitate future cleaning.
In terms of power supply, we can see that the core uses four power supplies, and each power supply consists of a 16V 270uF Taiwan Province Wan Yu input capacitor +BLNOOX29+R22 ferrite inductor +2.5v 820uF solid-state capacitor.
Below the core power supply is a roadside power supply consisting of GS92 16+2 iron transformers+16270uF capacitors of GStek. GS92 16 can support 12A current and 0.6- 12V output at most. This kind of chip is usually used for memory power supply, I guess it is designed for DP interface voltage.
The other power supply is located above the core power supply and consists of GS92 16+ 1 iron transformer of GStek and patch capacitor, and is powered by three PWM fans.
Dual-channel memory power supply adopts upper and lower bridge design, which consists of one QN3 107+ two QN3 103 from UBIQ, Li Xiang, Taiwan Province.
US5650Q is used to manage two memory power supplies. This chip often appears in RTX3060TI, RTX3070 and RTX3090 graphics cards.
The core of Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card is GA 106-302, which means you don't have to worry about buying a toughened version. The memory adopts K4ZAF325BM-HC 16 six-generation memory chips, with a single chip capacity of 2GB***6 chips, forming a 12GB super memory.
There is a UP9512DC buck controller of Lizhi Electronics on the back, which supports up to 8 power supplies for PWM control of 4 GPU cores.
On the back, there is another uP 1666Q DC buck controller of Nina Li Chi Electronics.
In terms of power supply design, Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card adopts the design of 4 (core power supply) +2 (video memory power supply)+1 (interface power supply)+1 (fan power supply), which are designed by uS5650Q, UP951respectively. Four-way GPU core power supply and two-way video memory power supply ensure the long-term stable operation of the graphics card.
Experience:
Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card can be well adapted to the middle tower chassis, and the installation of the front 360 cold row is not affected. Unfortunately, it does not support light effects.
As the installation platform is as above, we can see that Onda's GPU core ID is 2504- 10E 1536, which shows that this is the version of locking force. Don't worry about buying chips from Amway, and promise to buy new cards.
The speed control of Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card is very interesting. Instead of controlling its speed at a low speed, it is controlled by the duty ratio, that is, PWM speed. When the GPU pressure is not too great, the fan stops, and when the GPU is fully loaded for a certain period of time, the fan starts. The start and stop of the fan is based on the pressure of the GPU. This design solves the noise problem well and prolongs the service life of the fan. In daily use, the fan basically does not turn. As can be seen from the above picture, when I run PS, the pressure on the graphics card is not great and the fan does not turn. Only when I run games and AE, the fan is turned on under high GPU load.
Performance test:
TimeSpy is DirectX 12 benchmark, which supports native new API functions. The test uses 2560 × 1440 rendering resolution. It can be seen that the highest GPU is 1875MHZ, sometimes reaching 1920MHZ. The result of 8866 conforms to the normal performance of RTX3060, and it can be expected that RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics cards can be well supported for 1080P and 2K games.
TimeSpy Extreme improves the rendering resolution to 3840 × 2 160 (4K UHD) and the running score to 4 10 1.
PortRoyal is mainly used to test the real-time ray tracing performance. The rendering resolution is 2560× 1440, and the performance of Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card is 50 15. You can see the full load on the GPU curve, and the temperature is controlled at 7 1.8 degrees.
The rendering resolution of FireStrike Extreme is 2560 × 1440, and the score is 984 1. The game has a minimum of 56FPS, a maximum of 75FPS and a balance of 70FPS. This score can well support ray tracing games.
FireStrike Ultra improves the rendering resolution to 3840× 2 160 (4KHD), and the number of pixels drawn per frame is four times that of FireStrike. At the resolution of 4K, the score is 5 152, reaching the level of RTX3060.
Light pursuit effect experience:
Generally speaking, the effect of chasing light is to support the reflection and refraction of light, which can make the environment more realistic, improve the immersion of the game and make people immersive. Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card supports optical pursuit. Let's take a look at the changes before and after turning on optical tracking.
The picture above is a screenshot of eight villages in Resident Evil. Turn on the light chasing and turn off the light chasing, and you can feel the difference before and after, and the most important thing is to be reflected in the shadow. Looking at the cabinet in the picture carefully, the whole cabinet, including the objects on the cabinet, is no longer so bland, but more real and natural, especially the small objects such as fruits on the cabinet, which have a stronger three-dimensional effect after opening and chasing light. However, the pursuit of light also has shortcomings, and we can still work hard on the details. Just like the light and shadow in the reflection of the kettle in the above picture, the fruit reflected from the kettle should not be a brown piece, but a deformed circle. Of course, after turning on the light, the texture of the whole kettle is stronger and more like metal. In the above picture, the details are magnified many times and are insignificant in the whole picture.
These are two screenshots of Xuanyuan Jianqi. Pay attention to the overall effect of Taishilingfu and the street. After turning on the light, the plaque of Shilingfu has the warm light of lanterns, and the street lights near the lanterns have changed again, giving it the atmosphere of lanterns. Finally, in the red circle on the ground, you can see the small reflection of lanterns in the water. In the case of light cut-off, none of the above, they all emit their own light, which does not affect each other and does not interfere with each other. The final result is that the picture is unreal, not gorgeous, and the overall feeling is dull. On the whole, the improvement of the overall effect after opening the light chase is not a grade, so it is recommended to open it as much as possible under the condition of opening the light chase.
So does it affect the fluency of the game after the light chase is turned on? The above picture shows the real-time FPS of eight villages in Resident Evil before and after the light chase. It can be seen that the same scene, the same angle, has changed a lot before and after the chase. Therefore, the answer is yes, the pursuit of light is very important to the performance of graphics cards. At this time, whether the graphics card is excellent or not directly affects the game experience. It is not difficult to find from the figure that the Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card can play Resident Evil 8 smoothly when it is turned on at the resolution of 2K.
DLSS experience:
DLSS is a very hot topic at present. The so-called DLSS 2.0 can provide a picture quality comparable to the original resolution on the premise of rendering only one quarter to half pixels. It adopts a brand-new time feedback technology, which can realize clearer image details and improve inter-frame stability.
In layman's terms, you can understand it as image preprocessing. In short, the time you need to watch the whole picture is now saved by more than half, and you can have more time to deal with the next picture, thus improving the fluency of the game. To put it bluntly, opening DLSS can greatly improve the fluency of the game. Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card also supports DLSS. Let's talk about our experience in DLSS.
The first is the relationship between DLSS and image quality that everyone is most concerned about. In popular online games, you can see two options: fast and super performance.
In the game, it is not difficult to find that the picture quality is still different after DLSS is turned on. The details of boats and lanterns in the game are missing in DLSS, which is more obvious in super performances. This shows that DLSS will gain higher fluency at the expense of some details.
From the overall effect, DSLL has more modes to choose from in subway escape, and the overall difference is not particularly great. Only when the super performance mode is used, the overall picture will be blurred, mainly because more details are lost. However, in the quality mode, the difference between DSSL and DSSL is really difficult to distinguish, and the difference is minimal and basically not obvious. Balanced mode is a compromise solution.
The previous analysis is the influence of DLSS on image quality before and after opening, and then look at FPS fluency. Is it worth driving DLSS? Or take the subway escape as an example. At the resolution of 1080P, run with the benchmark tool with the highest pressure, and set the average FPS with at least two DLSS in overpressure and extreme pressure modes respectively. It can be seen that the improvement of FPS is very obvious after opening DLSS. In Ultra mode, the quality of DLSS can reach 69.2, and it can basically play smoothly. However, in the actual game, because the pressure is not as big as the test tool, even if the light catches up with the highest balanced FPS, it is11,and the lowest FPS is 78.9, which means that the light catches up with a high level.
Through the experience of Light Chasing and DLSS, we found that turning on Light Chasing and then turning on DLSS in quality mode can optimize the game experience, achieve a better immersive experience in a more realistic game environment, and ensure the fluency of the game. If individual DLSS is not enough in quality mode, then set DLSS to balance, and DLSS can achieve better game fluency at a very low price.
Gaming experience
The effect of Tomb Raider is the highest, the light is far away, and it is run with Benchmark tool at different resolutions.
After DLSS is turned on, it is the smoothest average 1 14FPS under the condition of light pursuit. Under the condition of light pursuit, 1080P can ensure fluency, and you can play at 2K, but it is a little difficult to turn on light pursuit at 4K, so you can try to turn it off, but I personally don't recommend turning it off in order not to affect the immersive experience of the game.
Finally, I played a game with 2K resolution and ran for dozens of minutes. Compared with the benchmark tool with great pressure, the pressure in the actual game is not so great. As can be seen from the curve, when it is rarely below 60FPS, it basically fluctuates up and down at 80FPS. In fact, there is no problem for Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card to play 2K.
Cyberpunk 2077 is known as the performance killer of graphics cards. It's really a world of difference to chase the light, and the overall picture is particularly realistic. Playing this game is like entering the real world, especially with strong texture and beautiful light and shadow. It is not surprising that the price has greater pressure on the graphics card after the chase is turned on. This time, use the ray tracing center in the preset scheme.
This time, we can see that on the premise of ensuring the quality of the game, Cyberpunk 2077 is more suitable for playing 1080P, and the overall fluency can be guaranteed. It's a little hard at 2K, unless the lights are turned off to further release the performance. I prefer to enjoy the ultimate beauty of 1080P rather than lose the agility of the game.
Generally speaking, Onda RTX3060 Aegis 12GD6 graphics card can support both optical pursuit and DLSS, and most games can be played in 2K mode. For games with higher performance requirements, optical pursuit can start with 1080P, which can ensure the fluency of the game without sacrificing the game experience. Combined with its current activity price of 4799, it can be said to be a dessert-level graphics card. Although there is no light pollution, it is not outstanding in power design and cannot be overclocked, but it is cheap to hold! It is a good choice for users who pursue cost performance. I have no regrets anyway! Of course, RTX3090 is a better choice for users who pursue the ultimate performance. The reason why I don't join RTX3090 is that I am shy!
