haswell架构
I've reviewed Intel Ultrabooks before that were sent by the software development team at Intel. I review them from a software developer's point of view, so I'm pretty hard on laptops. I want them to be fast, light and fast. They should put up with a development environment being open most of the day, lots of compiling and some virtual machines for good measure.
在英特尔软件开发团队发送之前,我已经审查过英特尔超极本。 我从软件开发人员的角度对它们进行了审查,因此在笔记本电脑上我非常努力。 我希望它们快,轻,快。 他们应该忍受一天中大部分时间都处于开放状态的开发环境,大量的编译工作以及一些适用于虚拟机的虚拟机。
Last year I looked at the 3rd gen "Ivy Bridge" ultrabooks:
去年,我看了第三代“ Ivy Bridge”超极本:
-
Initial Impressions of the 3rd Generation Ivy Bridge Intel Ultrabook Reference Hardware for Developers on Windows 8 (with video)
-
Intel Ultrabook hardware prototype - Windows 8 and the Sensor Platform
After the Ultrabook experience, I replaced a Lenovo W520 with a Lenovo X1 Carbon Touch as my primary machine. My primary beef with the X1 Carbon is its screen resolution, a barely passable 1400x900, but everything else (plus it's just over 3 pound weight) keeps me using it. However, I get about 5-6 hours typing on the X1 but about 4 hours of "hard work" which just isn't enough considering I'd like to sit AWAY from an electrical outlet for once. If the X1 Carbon Touch had a better 1080p (or better) screen and Haswell, it could be the perfect PC. But do I really need Haswell?
在体验Ultrabook之后,我将Lenovo W520替换为Lenovo X1 Carbon Touch作为我的主要机器。 X1 Carbon的主要特色是其屏幕分辨率,几乎无法通过的1400x900,但其他所有功能(加上刚好超过3磅的重量)都可以使我继续使用它。 但是,我在X1上打字大约需要5到6个小时,而“辛苦”大约需要4个小时,考虑到我想一次离开电源插座,这还不够。 如果X1 Carbon Touch具有更好的1080p(或更佳)屏幕和Haswell,则它可能是完美的PC。 但是我真的需要Haswell吗?
From The Verge, Intel has made some bold statements regarding the Haswell generation:
英特尔在The Verge中对Haswell一代做出了一些大胆的声明:
Intel's been branding the new processor tech as its "largest generational leap ever" with "the biggest performance improvement ever in battery life," as Intel's executive VP of sales and marketing Tom Kilroy boldly stated at Computex's opening keynote speech. The superlatives don't stop there: Navin Shenoy, vice president of the company's PC Client Group, told VentureBeat that "it’s the complete reinvention of the computer as we know it."
英特尔销售与市场执行副总裁汤姆•基尔罗伊(Tom Kilroy)在Computex的开幕主题演讲中大胆地表示,英特尔一直将这种新的处理器技术称为“有史以来最大的跨越式发展”,并具有“电池寿命有史以来最大的性能提升”。 最高级服务还不止于此:该公司PC客户小组副总裁Navin Shenoy告诉VentureBeat ,“这是我们所知道的计算机的彻底改造。”
Intel folks are also saying things like "we can look forward to a 50 percent increase in battery life in the coming wave of devices, with no loss of performance."
英特尔人士还说, “我们可以期待在即将到来的设备浪潮中将电池寿命延长50% ,而不会损失性能。 ”
So you'll forgive me if I have high expectations. I want this laptop generation to do nothing less than blow my mind.
所以,如果我寄予厚望,您会原谅我。 我希望这一代笔记本电脑无所不能。
The software development department at Intel has sent me an Intel Prototype Haswell Ultrabook to review, from a developer's perspective. it's a "no-name" brand (it says Intel on the outside) and it will never be sold. It's a reference hardware example, as it were. I'm not looking to review it as the Ultimate Haswell Laptop, rather as an example Ultrabook with the characteristics I would hope to see in other vendor's Haswell systems.
英特尔的软件开发部门已向我发送了《英特尔原型Haswell Ultrabook》,以供开发人员参考。 这是一个“无名”品牌(外面是英特尔),而且永远也不会出售。 确实是一个参考硬件示例。 我不想将其作为Ultimate Haswell笔记本电脑进行评测,而只是作为具有我希望在其他供应商的Haswell系统中看到的特性的Ultrabook为例。
I will do an in depth review after a month or so of using this, but here's my initial impressions after using this Haswell Laptop exclusively for two full days of actual work.
我将在一个月左右的时间里使用它进行深入的审查,但这是在仅使用Haswell Laptop进行两整天的实际工作后的初步印象。
尺寸/重量 (Size/Weight)
Three pounds, baby. That's the standard for nice laptops now. If it's five pounds, it's too heavy. This is a lovely size and a lovely weight. The best part about this Ultrabook is that it's 3.5 lbs and it has a 1080p screen. YES! That's almost enough for me to start using it full time over the Lenovo Carbon X1 Touch. Air-sized is the new size. If it's not this size then I'm not interested in it.
三磅,宝贝。 这是现在漂亮笔记本电脑的标准。 如果是五磅,那太重了。 这是一个可爱的尺寸和一个可爱的重量。 关于这款Ultrabook最好的部分是它的重量为3.5磅,屏幕为1080p。 是! 这足以让我开始全天候在Lenovo Carbon X1 Touch上使用它。 空气尺寸是新尺寸。 如果不是这个尺寸,那么我对它不感兴趣。
外观/感觉 (Look/Feel)
While this is a prototype that will never be produced, it is definitely nicer than the Ivy Bridge I looked at last year. That one had a lousy keyboard and a nightmare trackpad that has since broken. (My wife can no longer "left click" with that Intel Prototype. This Haswell 4th gen has stepped up the casing part of the hardware, at least, considerably. Remembering that the insides are presumably what this device is aiming to showcase, regardless, the touch pad on this device is WAY better than my X1 (whose touchpad I despise with the heat of a thousand suns) and the keyboard, while it doesn't have Lenovo's legendary quality throw, is still comfortable and fast.
虽然这是一个永远不会生产的原型,但绝对比我去年看过的Ivy Bridge好。 那个人的键盘糟糕透了,噩梦般的触控板也坏了。 (我的妻子可以不再“左键点击”与英特尔的原型,这Haswell的第四代加大了硬件的外壳部分,至少,增色不少。记住,内侧大概是什么这个设备的目标是展示,而不管,该设备上的触摸板比我的X1(我被一千个太阳的热量所鄙视的触摸板)要好得多,而键盘虽然没有联想的**品质,但仍然舒适,快捷。
This machine is a matte, almost gunmetal black, with light but firm plastic housing. The major fail is the weak/flimsy power connector, but that's a small complaint. I would also have preferred dedicated page up/down buttons. Otherwise, it's a pleasant and appealing housing.
该机器是一种哑光,近乎炮铜色的黑色,带有轻巧但坚固的塑料外壳。 主要的故障是电源连接器脆弱/脆弱,但这是一个小问题。 我还希望使用专用的向上/向下翻页按钮。 否则,这是一个令人愉悦的住所。
UPDATE: Sorry, of course, it has a touchscreen, as all Ultrabook's do, by spec definition. It also has a 1080p screen.
更新:很抱歉,按照规格定义,它具有触摸屏,就像所有Ultrabook一样。 它还具有1080p屏幕。
规格/性能 (Specs/Performance)
Setting this machine up from initial boot to a usable machine including Office 2013, Visual Studio 2013 and Windows 8.1 to just 5 hours, working at night watching TV. Mostly it was "next, next, next, finish" as the hard drive light blinked. Part of this is due to the speed of the machine, and part of it is due to newly re-written setup programs. With Office 2013's Click To Run I had Word running in 10 minutes, and VS2013 Pro Preview running in 30. Windows 8.1 took a few hours, and the rest of my developer tools were installed with Chocalatey (apt-get for Windows).
将此计算机从初次启动设置为可用的计算机(包括Office 2013,Visual Studio 2013和Windows 8.1)仅需5个小时,就可以在晚上看电视。 硬盘驱动器指示灯闪烁时,通常是“下一个,下一个,下一个,完成”。 部分原因是由于机器的速度,而部分原因是由于新重写的设置程序。 使用Office 2013的“点击运行”,我可以在10分钟内运行Word,而在30分钟内可以运行VS2013 ProPreview。Windows8.1花费了几个小时,其余的开发人员工具都与Chocalatey (适用于Windows的apt-get )一起安装了。
While I wasn't initially impressed with this Ultrabook having only 4 gigs of RAM and an i5 processor (Id' have preferred 8 gigs and an i7), I really haven't noticed a speed difference (yet) against my 3rd-gen i7 Lenovo X1 Carbon. I will do more profiling later to understand the characteristics of this machine and how it affects compilation and app debugging performance.
虽然最初对这款只有4 GB RAM和i5处理器的Ultrabook并没有留下深刻的印象(Id'则更喜欢8 gig和i7),但我确实没有注意到与第三代i7的速度差异联想X1 Carbon。 稍后,我将进行更多分析,以了解该计算机的特性以及它如何影响编译和应用程序调试性能。
电池寿命 (Battery Life)
I have mixed feelings about this. I think the hype machine has us all in its grips. I keep hearing "12 hour battery life" and "all day battery life." But of course I realize that intellectually this means "lower the brightness and watch a movie that has the GPU do all the work and don't touch the laptop all day battery life." It's not "work really hard and compile and run VMs and Outlook and Visual Studio" battery life.
对此我五味杂陈。 我认为炒作机可以控制我们所有人。 我一直听到“ 12小时电池寿命”和“全天电池寿命”。 但是,当然,我意识到,从理智上讲,这意味着“降低亮度,并观看一部具有GPU的电影,它可以完成所有工作,并且整日不消耗笔记本电脑的电池寿命。” 这不是“辛苦工作并编译并运行VM,Outlook和Visual Studio”的电池寿命。
That said, I worked for 6.5 hours before the battery died. It wasn't 12, and it wasn't 10. It was nearly 7 and the brightness was at about 70%. I'm going to wait a bit and do some more formal benchmark. Yes, it's 50% more battery life than the pathetic 4 hours I get now, but it's not all day. Still, the hype machine. I am withholding judgment because it's clearly BETTER, and it's just been a few days.
也就是说,在电池没电之前,我工作了6.5个小时。 它不是12,也不是10。接近7,亮度约为70%。 我将稍等一下,并做一些更正式的基准测试。 是的,它的电池续航时间比我现在可怜的4个小时多了50%,但这并不是一整天。 尽管如此,炒作机。 我保留判断,因为这显然更好,而且只有几天。
Disclosure of Material Connection: Intel sent me this Haswell Ultrabook in the hope that I would review it on my blog. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I would use and think you would find useful. This opinions are mine and mine alone as is this entire post. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.
重大联系的披露:英特尔向我发送了此Haswell Ultrabook,希望我可以在我的博客中对其进行审查。 无论如何,我只推荐我会使用的产品或服务,并认为对您有用。 这是我的观点,也是整个职位的观点。 我根据联邦贸易委员会的16 CFR第255部分:有关在广告中使用背书和证明书的指南进行披露。
