MethodologyTo make this easier to compare with the P35 chipset, we used the exact same setup and OS preparations we used in our 4-way P35 motherboard round-up.
To compare all motherboards, we used the following benchmarks:
All Futuremark benchmarks
Aquamark
Cinebench 10
Lavalys Everest: Memory latency
Prey
SiSoft Sandra 2007: CPU and Memory benchmark
SuperPi 1M / 32M
Detailed information about what settings we used exactly during the tests you can find on the result pages.
We used three different test settings:
- CPU @ 266x7; Memory @ 266 4-4-4-10
- CPU @ 500x7; Memory @ 500 4-4-4-10
- CPU @ 500x7; Memory @ 600 5-5-5-15
- Enhance Data transmitting: FAST
