A very important part of overall system responsiveness is down to hard drive performance. We use one of our favourite benchmark utilities – CrystalDiskMark X64 Edition – to rate performance from the on-board SATA controller.
This test shows how important it is to connect SSDs to the SATA-600 ports on the motherboard as a SATA-300 port would restrict performance considerably.

The Game Awards have been around for well over a decade and at this point, the TGAs have cemented themselves as the biggest awards show for the industry. Keighley knows how to draw people in with promises of new game trailers and other announcements, leading to huge moments like Bethesda's reveal for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, or Microsoft's Xbox Series X reveal. Winning the show's GOTY award is considered to be a badge of honour, so let's take a look back at the last ten GOTY winners and whether or not they deserved it.

Awesome, great photos too Henry, really enjoyed that read. ordering one today as I am not moving to haswell this generation.
Well that is a beautiful design, I love the dragon engraved into the heatsink. excellent power delivery potential. Price point is quite competitive, considering the big foot networking adds a lot of the cost.
MSI bioses are solid, I always buy them. I am waiting on haswell and their high end board for the 4770k.
Good product though, just at the end of a life cycle which might stop sales a little. Haswell is due in a few months.
