The overclocked system performed better in both test, most noticeeabely in the CPU score in 3DMark Vantaqge. The overall improvement isn't as large as this benchmark also takes GPU performance into account.
What a stunning price. I know a lot of people never use dual graphics solutions so this is more than ideal.
Good feature set and great price, always buy asus boards meself.
Asus and MSI make the best mobos on the market, bar none
The only downside is the sata ports pointing upwards. bad design decision in 2011, even on a budget board.
Very solid looking board, shame about the sata design, thats rather unusual for asus even on a budget model.
Great stuff. ideal for a low cost performance system.
Finally, a motherboard most people can afford !
have this board SATA 3.0 ?
