Cinebench
We used the ‘CPU’ test built into Cinebench R15 .
WinRAR
WinRAR’s built in benchmark and hardware test can help us outline the performance differentials between each motherboard. We record the amount of data processed after a 30-second run.
Handbrake Conversion
We measured the average frame rate achieved for a task of converting a 4.36GB 720P MKV movie to 720P MP4 format.
ASRock's motherboard continues its positive performance in CPU-heavy benchmarks. The Z97 Extreme6 is as fast as the other motherboards that we have tested with our 4790K processor.
Please review the asrock z97 extreme9. It may eliminate your ONLY con with its PLX chip and greater PCIe capability.
Did you try using the XP941 as a boot drive?
Amazing review! Powerfull board!
Please review the Asrock Z97 Extreme9!!!
Thank you!
