I am a profiteer in Computer City, and my customers are begging me not to go bankrupt?

At this time, although Shen Langbai's expression was tired, his excitement was palpable.

The top BIOS writing ability is really top-notch.

He thought that writing BIOS would be a long-lasting and large project, but he didn't expect that after he started writing it, it was like having muscle memory.

In such a short period of time, Shen Langbai compiled the chicken-blood BIOS required for overclocking of each model and flashed it into the motherboard.

"The first is the Pentium computer to see if the chicken blood BIOS has taken effect."

Shen Langbai looked expectant, and immediately pressed the power button.

At this moment, the radiator inside the Pentium 4 machine began to rotate, and there was a buzzing sound.

Fortunately, this A high-performance host, even if it is overclocked to the sky, will generate limited heat, and the fan speed of the radiator is also limited.

It cannot be like those game laptop fans of later generations, which rotate as if there is a helicopter parked in the room.

If it were someone else , across the chassis, you can only feel that the running noise of the Pentium 4 machine has increased a little compared to the previous one, and there are no other obvious changes.

But Shen Langbai knew that this was the chicken blood that was brushed into the Pentium motherboard. How BIOS has changed the performance scheduling of the Pentium 4 machine

"The original Pentium 4th generation processor had a maximum CPU rate of 1.2GHz, which was really too low."

"The frequency of this single core is even far lower than the smallest cores of mainstream processors in later generations, let alone those large cores that pile up materials fiercely."

"This is certainly related to the manufacturing process, but it is also due to the manufacturer’s conservative scheduling."

"What is 1.2GHz enough for? What's more, according to the manufacturer's settings, most of the time, in order to save energy, the computer may not run at the highest frequency."

"This is simply a disease. Desktop computers are not notebooks. You don’t care whether they are energy-saving or not. Performance is the first priority."

"This chicken-blood BIOS directly increases the voltage and current, unlocks the maximum power consumption, and allows the Pentium processor to consume more power."

"Now in this Pentium 4 machine, the maximum frequency of the processor has soared from 1.2GHz to 1.7GHz"

"And it is directly locked at the highest frequency, allowing the computer to exert its strongest performance every moment!"

Immediately, Shen Langbai tried the Pentium 4 machine after overclocking the B27 IOS.

It can only be said that compared to the previous one, it was simply heaven and earth.

Just processing words and tables, you can feel the obvious difference It’s different.

This overclocked console can obviously process and convert more text content and table formats at one time, and the computing speed has been greatly improved.

And the game performance is also much better than before.

It can even achieve medium quality 30 The frame is running Crysis!

This performance is even weaker than the original Core-530.

And the difference is mainly in the number of cores and threads. This is a problem of the innate design of the processor, and no amount of overclocking can solve it.

Just People can become stronger through exercise, but it cannot make you have three heads and six arms or a clairvoyance.

Shen Langbai is quite satisfied with the performance of the Pentium 4 machine after overclocking the BIOS.

"This overclocked version of Pentium has performance close to that of a Core computer, so I’ll sell it at a middle price, 3999, which is not too much."

"It's equivalent to not spending a penny of cost, but it can increase profits by nearly 50%!"

However, the Pentium 4 is still a very powerful computer now, eclipsing the flagships of this parallel world.

But Shen Langbai knew that when he traveled back in time, the word Pentium was too lazy to be used. At a glance, it is incomparable with the Core series.

The first-generation Core i3-530 on a Core computer has much greater overclocking potential.

In his previous life, Shen Langbai clearly remembered that there was a chicken-blood BIOS written by a master, which could The overall performance of this processor has more than doubled!

He has the top-level BIOS writing ability instilled by the system, and he is confident that he will not be worse than those great masters.

The performance of Chicken Blood BIOS on Core computers is what Shen Langbai is looking forward to The highlight.

Immediately, he flashed the chicken-blood BIOS he wrote for the Core i3-530 into the H55 motherboard, and then restarted the computer.

At this moment, a far more violent buzzing sound broke out than the Pentium host after overclocking!

This Core The radiator fan equipped with i3-530 is fully loaded!

Shen Lang's eyes flashed with a glint of light

"This processor has a total of two cores and a maximum frequency of 1.7GHz"

"After I updated the BIOS, the maximum frequency soared from 1.7GHz to 3.0GHz. This was true for both cores, and they were locked at the highest frequency throughout the process."

"In addition to the dual-core processor locking the highest frequency of 3.0GHz, the power supply performance of this H55 motherboard is also far stronger than that of the Pentium motherboard."

"Because of this, while the i3-530 is overclocked, it can also support memory overclocking."

"The frequency of two 512MB memories has been exceeded by me to 2000MHz, which has exceeded the 1666MHz common frequency of DDR3 generation memory, and has almost reached the lowest frequency of DDR4 memory."

"The frequency has been increased so much, let me see what performance this computer has now!"

Soon, the overclocked Core host entered the desktop.

Shen Langbai didn't even bother to read any text or tables.

This kind of performance would be impossible unless it was processing some accounting tables, which often have thousands or tens of thousands of rows. There was some lag in the regular text work.

There is no benchmarking software now, so Shen Langbai directly opened Crysis, the software with the highest performance requirements. The highest image quality was turned on, and various parameters were manually adjusted..

The volumetric fog is full, the space reflection is full, the special effects are full...

Under this kind of pressure, the Core computer before overclocking can only run at about 20 frames.

But now, the picture that appears on the screen can already be called Smooth.

This is already a stable level of 40 frames and above!

And if you drop it to the game's default highest image quality setting and do not manually adjust all the parameters, this overclocked Core computer can directly run at 40 frames per second. Running at a frame rate of close to 60 frames!

I completely lifted a non-overclocked Core computer to play, and the game performance was only lowered by a voodoo host equipped with a discrete graphics card!

The smile on Shen Langbai's face was quite Brilliant, a sense of accomplishment also spreads in my heart

"This is the charm that made all hardware players obsessed with overclocking back then."

"Without spending a penny, just adjust parameters and BIOS settings, and you can achieve 20 to 30% or even double the performance of your computer!"

"This feeling is comparable to upgrading and learning new skills in a role-playing game, it’s so cool!"

Shen Langbai finished testing the overclocking effect of the biggest Core computer, and his eyes fell on the Voodoo host.

This host is actually a Core host with a Voodoo5 independent graphics card plugged in, and nothing else has changed.

So the processor performance The improvement is exactly the same as that of the overclocked Core host.

The only variable is that the chicken blood BIOS written for the Voodoo host contains overclocking scheduling for the Voodoo5 independent graphics card. The original Voodoo5 graphics card has only 256MB of video memory and a frequency of only 500MHz.

After overclocking, although the 256MB video memory size cannot be changed, the frequency is increased from 500MHz to 800MHz. It is like a restaurant, the area remains the same, there are still so many tables, but the cooks serve the dishes and the helpers clear the tables. The efficiency is faster, which can naturally significantly increase the restaurant's income.

This allows this graphics card to load higher resolution and more delicate textures, and can support the game to open to a higher resolution.

But before that, Wu Shen Langbai has already tested the performance of the Voodoo console on the game Crysis.

At that time, it could be fully loaded directly. If it was replaced by the current overclocked Voodoo console, it would still be the same.

The volume is only One hundred points, there is no difference between the strength of 150 points and 500 points.

"Unless I upgrade the monitor."

As soon as this idea appeared in Shen Langbai's mind, it immediately started churning.

You know, due to the slow development of the computer industry, the display technology in this parallel world is also quite lagging behind.

It's already this time, and the display is still like that""Big ass" monitor.

The resolution is still VGA standard, 1024x768 pixels!

This has been a relatively new style in the past two or three years.

Many players who are reluctant to upgrade their monitors may even use 800x600 resolution Monitor!

Before Shen Langbai traveled through time, 1080p monitors were already on the market. You could buy one from a no-name brand for less than 300 yuan.

What is the specification of that pixel count? 1920x1080!

It doesn’t look like the number has increased much. , in fact, the number of pixels is five times higher than that used by most players in this parallel world, and nearly three times higher than the relatively new monitor used by Shen Langbai! The higher the number of pixels, the clearer the picture displayed by the monitor. The higher it is.

If you go to a 4K monitor, or even 8K monitors that were not popular in the previous life, it would be even more exaggerated. The pictures would really feel lifelike!

Think of the feeling of watching movies on a monitor in the previous life, and then look at what’s happening in front of you Shen Langbai also shook his head at this big-ass monitor. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!) He had no points before, and the computer performance did not support it, so he never thought about the monitor..

Now the performance of this overclocked Voodoo computer can no longer be satisfied by a 1024x168 resolution monitor.

After Shen Langbai took a deep breath, he made a decision

"superior!"

"Regardless of anything else, just to be better for your eyes, get a 1080p monitor!"[]

Immediately, he also searched in the system mall.

However, at first glance, Shen Langbai was stunned by the points consumption of this display category.

Monitors that use miniled.oled, hva, fast-ips and other technologies can easily cost tens of millions of points to unlock.

And according to Shen Langbai's experience in his previous life, once this thing is unlocked, the cost will be at least a thousand yuan, and some may cost tens of thousands.

He is still reluctant to unlock this kind of thing just to make it more comfortable for him.

"I still don’t have enough points, so I don’t dare to waste it."

"Let’s unlock a more ordinary 24 1080p60hz monitor first."

Shen Langbai rummaged through the mall and found a Zhai factory monitor using a Beijing panel.

It costs two million points to unlock this monitor. For Shen Langbai who currently has more than 30 million points. , it’s nothing.

What’s more, he already has a plan.

After the overclocked version of the Voodoo console is put on the shelves, the demand for this kind of 1080p monitor will inevitably increase.

How can those rich guys look at the display effect of the 1080p monitor and not What about your excitement?

How many points you have spent will earn you back exponentially?

You can even start the display market, which is a great deal!

"System, unlock this 1080p monitor for me!"

Immediately afterwards, 3 million points were deducted from Shen Langbai's system interface, followed by a new purchase option.

"Jingfang 1080p monitor, frequency 60hz, using VA panel, maximum brightness 150nit, maximum contrast ratio 3000:1, color gamut coverage 76% srgb……"

"System evaluation: Be kind to your eyes, because this kind of junk factory lags behind the screen!"

"System price: 200."

Shen Langbai curled his lips.

Damn it, the system is really dark.

This thing has to be sold for 200 yuan in the system mall?

No wonder it is a profiteer system in Computer City. Damn it, the dog system itself is a profiteer!

But forget it, that’s it, it’s better than nothing.

Although this screen has low brightness and low color gamut, it is still 24-inch 1080p.

For a monitor, large size and high resolution are more important. factor.

Although this screen is a VA screen, many people looked down upon it in the previous life because the experience of playing intense competitive games was not very good.

But in fact, the VA screen has a high contrast, which is suitable for daily office work, watching movies, and playing stand-alone games.The experience is great.

And another thing is that it has low radiation.

The big-ass computer that Shen Langbai is using now really emits radiation. If you sit in front of the computer for a long time, your face will become dry!

If you switch to this Jingfang monitor, the experience will definitely skyrocket.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Langbai also decisively bought one and installed it for himself.

Tsk, this effect is so big and delicate, it’s so cool!

Only then did Shen Langbai begin to test the performance of the Voodoo host after overclocking.

Sure enough, when switching to a 1080p monitor, the number of pixels tripled and the pressure also increased significantly. Even if the overclocked Voodoo host is running Crysis and the resolution is increased to 1080p, the number of frames will only be 30 frames.

After overclocking, the Core can even get less than 15 frames at this resolution.

But this made Shen Langbai smile.

Can't run? It’s better if you can’t run!

Isn’t the demand for higher-performance hosts being squeezed out in this way?

In the future, players will be able to upgrade to another wave of consoles, and there will be another wave of points!

At this point, Shen Langbai has also tested the performance of several overclocked hosts and unlocked a monitor.

He also let out a long breath and felt extremely fulfilled.

"The only problem now is to find a suitable opportunity to launch the product."

"Forget it, don’t think about it for now, browse the forums, surf the Internet, and relax."

After Shen Langbai clicked on the forum, he found an announcement from Xingyao Company pinned to the top of the forum, saying that Xingyao Company would hold a press conference in the near future to introduce its latest achievements.

The company's boss Hou Yaochen personally This news was announced.

And when announcing the press conference, Hou Yaochen also said something that shocked countless players.

"Boss Shen from Xingkong Technology and I are actually old acquaintances. I started a business with his parents back then."

"It's a pity that his parents made poor business decisions and couldn't think about it for a while."

"Now that I see Boss Shen doing well, I, as an elder, am also very pleased."

"Here, I solemnly invite Boss Shen Langbai to represent Xingkong Technology to attend the Xingyao press conference."

"Let us work together to bring better products to our users."

Countless players were stunned. They didn't expect the two companies to have such a good relationship.

Are they even attending the press conference together now?

Many netizens lamented that Hou Yaochen, as an elder, is willing to support the younger generations.

After all, now, Xingyao and Xingkong Technology are still It's a competitive relationship. It's really kind to help promote competing products at one's own press conference.

But when Shen Langbai saw this announcement, his face turned as cold as iron.

Even though he had no emotional resonance with the original person. , Shen Langbai clenched his fists when he saw Hou Yaochen's shameless words.

"Shameless, this is really your style of Hou Yaochen"

"Looking at this, I'm afraid they got some high-performance processor from somewhere and are trying to step on me, right?"

"Okay, you can deliver it to your door, then I will make it happen for you!".
