Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
36 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 23.6 ms rise
↘ 12.4 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 93 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (21.5 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
58.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 33.6 ms rise
↘ 25.2 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 94 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (33.7 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM detected 21550 Hz ≤ 99 % brightness setting

The display backlight flickers at 21550 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 99 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting.

The frequency of 21550 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17915 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

In review: Lenovo Legion Y520-15IKBN-80WK001KUS. Test model provided by Lenovo US

联想Legion Y520对预算有限的游戏玩家来说是个不错的选择。它提供了优秀的处理器和显卡性能,相对便捷的维护和升级操作,以及优秀的输入设备。尽管机身品质和设计都是以功能性为主,但如果用户主要在家中使用的话,这也不是太大的问题。同时它的价位(测试机型定价1060美元)也不算很高。

英伟达 GTX 1050 Ti相比高端设备中的GTX 1070/1080芯片差别很大,不过也应该可以满足大部分最新游戏在1080p分辨率和高设定下的流畅运行。在持续游戏负载下(或繁重处理器运算中)它的稳定性也十分优秀,散热系统没有展现出任何弱点。我们所测试的Y520配置机型也提供了出色的存储设备,搭配高速256GB NVMe固态硬盘的同时,它还有2TB机械硬盘的辅助。

联想Legion Y520对于预算有限的游戏玩家来说是个不错的选择。它在高速的同时也可靠而稳定,相比其他高端机型价格十分实惠。

它的最大弱点在于无法升级显卡——由于定位更高的Y720的存在,这也多少在我们的预料之中。出了仅属于中端的显卡性能外,Y520为了接近实惠型游戏本定位也在其他一些方面也节省了成本。首先最明显的就是机身的设计和材质;Y720坚固的金属表面和RGB分区背光键盘没有被Y520继承,它采用了红黑两色的全塑料机身。其他的一些设备,如华硕 ROG Strix GL553VD则相比其他方面更加强调机身和设计,具备一些更接近商务风格的Y520所不具备的直观魅力。另外一个明显不足之处是屏幕,尽管在显示效果上中规中矩,但亮度和色域覆盖都难以令人满意。在这个方面,Y720也提供了可选升级,而Y520则只有一种屏幕配置。

如果可以投入更高几百美元的预算的话,Y720会是个更有吸引力的选择。而一些相似机型,如戴尔 Inspiron 15 7567的定位也十分相近,值得同时参考。不过从自身出发,Y520是一台十分成功的设备。它性能强劲、可靠而稳定,以较低的售价提供了优秀的游戏性能。
