preface
With
But recently we received Kingtech's latest Battle Tiger G7000 SSD, as a PCIe 4.0 SSD, it can not only achieve 7000MB/s high-speed sequential read performance, but also the price is not high, can be described as a combination of high performance and cost-effectiveness, for users who are interested in purchasing or upgrading SSDs are not to miss the choice. It just so happens that the author has recently replaced this SSD, let's take a look at its level through actual measurement!
Product appreciation
The packaging box of the Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD is mainly black and gray, and the Kingtech logo and Tiger series on the box are eye-catching red annotations, which are particularly eye-catching against a pure black background. In the middle is the appearance rendering of the Wartiger G7000, and the two extremely rising arrows on the left and right interpret this is a product that pursues extreme performance.
The packaging is the conventional product technical function description and warranty regulations, but the back also adopts a transparent window design, through the small window can clearly see the specification label attached to the SSD, from one side can also achieve anti-counterfeiting and whether there is a package transfer prevention and control function.
After opening the carton package, take out the inner box where the Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD is placed, the inner box is a clamshell transparent blister box, and there are five raised fixing points in the slot to position and fix the SSD.
The box is equipped with fixing screws and screwdriver accessories for solid-state drives, and this inner box can also be used as a tool box to replace the screws or hard disk after the upgrade.
Finally see the real body, Kingtech Tiger G7000 adopts the standard 2280 specification as a whole, the PCB substrate adopts single-sided component layout design, ultra-thin size is more space-saving, and the compatibility of multiple platforms is also better, so it can be easily installed in the current mainstream desktops, notebooks and home game consoles.
Of course, in addition to full compatibility, Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD also takes care of the needs of various users in detail, launching 512GB, 1TB and 2TB three specifications of capacity, which is also the standard configuration of PCIe 4.0 solid-state, and this time we are evaluating the 1TB capacity version.
However, the most beautiful point of this SSD is the use of a new generation of PCIe4.0×4 high-speed interface, the maximum continuous read speed can reach 7400MB/s, and the write speed is also 6600MB/s, which greatly improves the running speed of the whole machine and reduces the waiting time of users. The interface alone is not enough, there is also the latest process of 3D particle blessing, the maximum support of 2400MT/s, only the ultimate configuration has a silky experience.
Turning to the back, because the Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD adopts a single-sided component welding layout design, there is no component distribution on the back of its PCB substrate, and only some signal test points and silkscreen illustrations can be seen.
In general, Battle Tiger G7000, as a high-performance solid-state drive using Kingtech's PCIe4.0 solution, far exceeds its own Speedtiger TP5000 (4800MB/s) in performance, and also maintains a very good level in the overall workmanship, especially in the subtle workmanship such as circuit and component soldering, which also reflects the manufacturing strength of Kingtec as an old hardware manufacturer.
Test bed
After understanding the situation of the Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD, we will see what kind of performance this SSD can bring to users through actual application testing.
The following introduces the test platform, the processor is still the strongest Intel Corei9-13900K processor on the surface, with the Z790 motherboard, so that it can fully play the performance of PCIe 4.0X4 channel M.2 SSD.
Performance testing
Without further ado, performance testing begins!
CrystalDiskInfo views basic information about the hard disk
Using the hard disk health detection tool CrystalDiskInfo to view the hard disk information, we see that the firmware version of the Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD is SN07579, the transmission mode is PCIe4.0x4, supports NVMe2.0 standard, supports S.M.A.R.T, TRIM and VolatileWriteCache functions, and the standby temperature is 44 degrees.
And after the system formatting, you can see that the actual free space of the Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD is 953GB, which is in line with the capacity of 1TB hard disk.
CrystalDiskMark performance testing
Next, let's test the 3DMark in the SSD industry, and use the CrystalDiskMark test software to test the default read and write speed of the KingTech Tiger G7000 SSD in the empty disk state. In the 1GB size test, the SeqQ8T1 sequential read speed was 7075.43MB/s and the sequential write speed was 6552.64MB/s.
The test was intensified, the packet rose to 16GB, and the sequential read speed of the SeqQ8T1 SSD of the Kingtech Tiger G7000 was 7051.64MB/s, and the sequential write speed was 6472.98MB/s. This strong performance is enough to meet your needs for reading and writing large files.
In the half-disk state, the SeqQ8T1 read speed is 7054.7MB/s and the write speed is 6508.03MB/s. There is almost no difference in the performance of the empty disk, and the data fluctuation of the test results is also very small, which shows that Kingtech's Battle Tiger G7000 SSD has good performance stability.
ezIOmeter performance test
The data level obtained by the ezIOmeter benchmark test is not much different from that of CDM, and the read and write are more than 6000MB/s, which belongs to the sequence of high-end PCIe 4.0 SSDs. However, the ezIOmeter benchmark can see that the Jintek Battle Tiger G7000 can reach the limit of speed data in the extreme speed state, and the highest write and read MBps of this solid state in the test can reach 12381.38 and 12459.84.
PCMark10 test
In the more professional software PCMark10, the performance of the Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD is still excellent. Let's start with PCMark10's fast system disk benchmarking, which uses a record-play principle to reproduce the performance impact of SSDs on a variety of different applications. The test items cover system boot up, Adobe design suite applications, Office office suite applications, image/ISO file copy and copy, multiple game loading processes and other test content.
The KingTech Tiger G7000 SSD scored 3296 points, the bandwidth reached 404.14MB/s, and the average access time was 39μs.
In the half-disk state, the bandwidth of this solid-state is still 361.9MB/s, and the access delay is 44μs, which has not dropped significantly, and it has to be said that the stability and performance of the Jintek Tiger G7000 SSD are beyond expectations.
3DMark storage testing
As for 3DMark's storage test, it can further test the creation, reading, writing and movement of game files, which can well simulate the user's performance when using this SSD as a game disk.
This time we conducted a total of 3 rounds of testing, first look at the performance of Kingtec Tiger G7000 SSD in the empty disk, the total score is 3980 points, the bandwidth is also 675.84MB/s, and the access time is also controlled within 45μs. With this performance, throw out the entry-level PCIe 4.0 solid state and PCIe 3.0 solid state several streets.
Even in the half-disk state, the performance of the Kingtech Tiger G7000 is still stable, with a test hard disk score of 3919 points, an average bandwidth of 674.05MB/s, and an average access time of 46μs, which is almost the same as the empty disk state.
ATTODiskBenchmark benchmark performance test
Since it is a game board, it will inevitably involve different size ratio file transfers, let's take a look at the test results of ATTODiskBenchmark, which can well reflect the transfer speed of different files on this hard disk. From the test results, it can be seen that at the 64KB data level, the read and write performance potential of this SSD can be fully released, of which the read speed exceeds 6GB/s, and the peak write speed also peaks at 6GB/s, which is easy for game folders full of various small files.
TxBENCH software testing
Finally, we use TxBENCH for read and write performance test and SLCCache cache test, first of all, you can still see the status of Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD, and the standby temperature of 44°C is really good. The results of the benchmark tests showed the strength of high-end PCIe 4.0 solid-state.
The read and write speeds in the test state are 6858.227MB/s and 6075.888MB/s, which are basically in line with the advertised speed, while 4K read/write is also 86.837MB/s and 350.771MB/s, which is much better than many top PCIe 4.0 solid-state.
The SLCCache test can understand the cache size of this SSD, measured down, the capacity of SLCCache of Jintec Tiger G7000 is about 200GB, in SLC, the average write of the hard disk is as high as 6000MB/s, even after SLCCache is exhausted, the average write speed of this SSD is about 1600MB/s, and finally the blank flash memory is used up, and the average write speed is 622MB / s, both stability and speed are quite excellent.
In addition, the temperature control of this SSD is also excellent, and the temperature change shows a slow increase in steps during continuous large write operations, and the maximum temperature is only about 55 degrees Celsius.
Hands-on experience
Theoretical tests are ultimately on paper, and practical experience can be seen. The peak performance of Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD is 7000MB/s, almost taking PCIe 4.0 to the extreme, above we tested the theoretical performance of this SSD through software, here we will simulate the file dumping in daily use to test the actual performance.
In the file writing stage, when transferring about 50GB of files, the packet only took half a minute to complete the operation, and the average rate reached 3.5GB/s, which is quite good.
In the file return stage, the packet completed the operation in less than 15 seconds, and the average rate reached 4.2GB/s, and the excellent read and write rate basically reached the official nominal level.
We also tested the support of Jintek Tiger G7000 for media files, here we choose DISKSPEEDTEST, in the empty disk standard mode, the read and write performance of this SSD is 5669.9MB/and 5609.8MB/s, respectively, and in half-disk mode, the read score is even higher, reaching 5910.5MB/s, in addition, we see that this hard disk has good performance for various formats, and it is also appropriate to use it as your work material disk.
Summary of the review
After a period of testing and actual use experience, the author believes that the Kingtech Tiger G7000 SSD is worthy of the publicity of high-end positioning. In terms of speed, sequential reading and writing exceeds the publicity data, and the 4K read and write and small file reading and writing speed is also very fast, which can be quickly and silky in daily use, especially as a system disk and game board.
In addition, the standard 2280 size and single-sided component layout design can not only be used on mainstream desktop platforms and notebooks, but also on next-generation game consoles such as PlayStation 5 to expand storage space, reflecting that Jintek Tiger G7000 SSD is quite high in platform installation adaptability and compatibility, of course, it also has a 3-year warranty protection, easy to use and at the same time rest assured.
