Intel Core i7 3820 and ASrock Extreme4-M review

Allan 'Zardon' Campbell January 11, 2012 CPU, Highlights-new, Motherboard

Aliens V Predator has proved to be a big seller since the release and Sega have taken the franchise into new territory after taking it from Sierra. AVP is a Direct X 11 supported title and delivers not only advanced shadow rendering but high quality tessellation for the cards on test today.

To test the cards we used a 1080p resolution with DX11, Texture Quality Very High, MSAA Samples 1, 16 af, ambient occulsion on, shadow complexity high, motion blur on. We use this with most of our graphics card testing so cards are comparable throughout reviews.

No problems powering through this title, averaging 180 fps in Crossfire.

    Very nice indeed. I like the asrock board, most of the p67 micro atx boards sucked

    Interesting to see them releasing a CPU at the same price as the 2600k for the X79 platform. Wasnt expecting that.

    It looks like the Cyberlink MediaEspresso tests didn’t use Intel Quick Sync Video on the Intel Core i5 2500K or Core i7 2600K/2700K systems. Those processors would appear higher up the table if that was enabled and used.
