ASRock Z87 Extreme9/ac Motherboard Review

We measured the power consumption with the system resting at the Windows 7 desktop, representing idle values.

The power consumption of our entire test system is measured at the wall while loading only the CPU using Prime95's Small FFTs setting. The rest of the system's components were operating in their idle states, hence the increased power consumption values (in comparison to the idle figures) are largely related to the load on the CPU and motherboard power delivery components.

ASRock's Z87 Extreme9/ac shows good power consumption figures, giving an indication that efficient VRM components are used.

  6. Nice review but you miss one important point about the exclusive DP-In (the gamer alternative to Virtu MVP).

  7. With all these trends in modern technology and robotics,
    it is starting to be a probability that many of us might soon become enslaved by it most especially if you recognize that there’s nothing
    we all do at this time that does not involve modern technology

  8. Hi Luke Hill. Need to see the main.jpg picture of the Z87 Extreme9/ac motherboard’s UEFI BIOS main page. I’m wondering which bios version is that. I’ve tried all versions found in the net and none can get me to set PCI’s other than PCI2 to gen1. Thanks.
