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.
Our testing uses a Kingston HyperX 3K SSD.
Given that ASRock equips the Z87 OC Formula with a pair of ASMedia ASM1061 controllers, we know exactly what to expect from the SATA performance results.
The ASRock motherboard's native Z87 SATA 6Gb/s ports offer unrestricted performance for fast SSDs, while the ~400MB/s-capable ASMedia connections should be reserved for slower mechanical storage and optical drives.
wow that is awesome, looks stunning too!
This board looks great – good price point too, which I always like with ASROCK. plenty of detail luke, thanks for review
I just ordered one, hard to find here though, they need to work on their distribution
They are always well priced, they dont seem any worse than MSI, GB or ASUS either in my own tests, but it all depends on what board you get I guess.
Not the Formula I am looking forward to but I might go with this after trying out Asrock’s Fatal1ty Z77 and loving it. Not to mention that 9.5 rating.
That fan though >.<
It's forcing me to wait for the other Formula (VI) before I can decide.
Thanks for the review ^^
Got the ac version of this from Overclockers abour four weeks ago. Just waiting on my custom cable extensions to arrive from Pexon to get my build started. If it is half as good as my X79Extreme11 in my main rig it will be epic
Hi Luke,… was wondering. Is the PLX8605 embedded on the Z87 OC Formula AC driven from the CPU? or is it driven from the extra PCIe lanes provided by the Z87 Chipset? (I’m guessing from the lane configurations that it is the Z87? which would mean you could operate 2-way SLI without any latency?……) Thanks for any help you can provide.
