For the 2021 game market, asus Sky Choice 2 is a very early model, and it is also a model that is best suited as a background board. Because in various data comparisons and reviews, as long as there is Asus Sky Choice 2, it must be used to set off how strong other games are. Now that the 12th generation of Core is on the market, and the Asus Choice 3 is about to be released, will this notebook still be like this? The answer is a bit surprising, compared to Sky Choice 2, which is not yet available, there are four very attractive upgrades.
1, support DDR5 memory
The two models launched by SkyChoice 3 both feature a Core i7-12700H processor with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD, the difference being whether it's equipped with RTX3060 or RTX3070. And this time Asus is equipped with 16GB DDR5 dual-channel memory, which is definitely the mainstream specification of the 12th generation Core, and it does not pull the crotch at all. However, since it is the standard dual-channel memory, it seems that it is only equipped with a single 16GB single strip, considering that the single DDR5 is a 32-bit dual-channel, which means that if you want to fire fully, you still have to add another memory yourself.
2, standard full blood RTX3060
If there is any obvious performance shortcoming of Sky Choice 2, it is that there is a significant gap between the configuration performance and the nominal. It is indeed equipped with RTX3060, but it gives you 95W, can this experience be good. But in the generation of Tianxuan 3, whether it is RTX3060 or RTX3070, it directly gives a 140W full blood version, which is not faulty. And for the sake of performance, the fan has also been upgraded, the blades are more and thinner, almost directly take the ROG fan over to use, performance should not have to worry about anything. As for why there is no RTX3070Ti version, believe me, this version is not worth buying.
3, support unique direct connection
The most annoying thing about ASUS Sky Choice 2 is the lack of unique direct connection, which was also made up on Sky Choice 3 this time. Today's single direct display can support three modes, direct single output, unique display through the nuclear display for mixed output, and use only the nuclear display. So it is not difficult to find that several of the main shortcomings on ASUS Sky Choice 2 seem to be absent on Asus Sky Choice 3.
4, HDMI supports unique output
Upcoming Sky Choice 3 has also made adjustments to the design details. For example, the same external display mode, ASUS Choice 2 can only connect the display through the USB Type-C interface to DP1.4 to achieve unique display output, and the use of HDMI is the display connection core display. And The choice 3 is just the opposite, the HDMI interface and the USB Type-C interface are unique outputs, supporting 4K60Hz display mode, Raiden 4 is a centralized display output, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with this degree.
In summary, ASUS Sky Choice 3 enhances graphics card performance, provides a unique direct connection, and optimizes the interface. Coupled with the 2560×1440 high split screen and 165Hz refresh rate, the display directly supports 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, basically there should be. As for why there has been such a big change, perhaps because of the user feedback of Sky Choice 2, or maybe because Sky Choice 3 is not so anxious to go public, in short, it is worth waiting to see. Of course, the most important thing is whether the price will rise, which is only known after the listing.
