We measure performance of the Patriot Wildfire 256GB Solid State Drive when connected to the Intel Z78 Express Chipset controller.
Excellent results, scoring around 460 MB/s in the sequential read and write tests.
The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage systems performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customize your performance measurement including queue depth, overlapped I/O and even a comparison mode with the option to run continuously. Use ATTO Disk Benchmark to test any manufacturers RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives and SSD drives and notice that ATTO products will consistently provide the highest level of performance to your storage.
The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance results are superb across the full tests on the Patriot Wildfire drive. The system peaks at 557 MB/s Read and 512MB/s write. No bottleneck concerns from the controller on this board.
Gigabyte have this round sown up, that new bios also looks amazing.
Lovely looking motherboard – I am not moving however, waiting on the next generation.
about time they ditched the blue PCB boards- what a step forward ! love it !
this is the board to get, the price looks spot on and its not losing any features.
Only thing is the 6 SATA ports, id like 8 like the asus board, as I have a lot of hard drives.
THE GIGABYTE BOARDS are killer looking. best boards they have ever products.
4770k is a flop. Intel are clearly focused on the mobile platform now and power reduction rather than moving forward in the high end and giving people a huge step up. anyone with a 3770k wont need to move,unless for some reason they need onboard graphics !
disappointing CPU launch, but great motherboards from the guys. I like how they have ditched the old SATA standard now instead of 3 or 4 useless ports for SSD.
4770k isn’t that bad, but I agree, its not a huge step forward. it may help those peoplee who buy a lower end processor and cant afford a graphics card, but who the F*CK will want a 4770k for onboard graphics performance? its irrelevant really.
Ive seen a lot of reviews today and there seems to be a huge variance on the overclocks, which would suggest the new manufacturing process isn’t quite at the level it should be. ill stay with my 3570k for a while longer as its working well with the 7950 I have.
Noob question:
I see you used the 1.65volt corsairs, but the board specifications are for 1.5.volt. Wouldn’t
that impact the lifespan of the board in the long run?
Does the Z87X-OC natively supports the i7-4770k? Or do i need to update the Bios to a newer version? Actually i have a problem since i have just built my new pc but when i try to turn it on the fens start to work but everything shuts down after 1-2 seconds.. I’d like to know if there is an hardware problem or if it’s just because of the bios.
I have no real experience with Bios and stuff like that ç__ç
