CINEBENCH R11.5 64 Bit is a real-world cross platform test suite that evaluates your computer’s performance capabilities. CINEBENCH is based on MAXON’s award-winning animation software CINEMA 4D, which is used extensively by studios and production houses worldwide for 3D content creation. MAXON software has been used in blockbuster movies such as Spider-Man, Star Wars, The Chronicles of Narnia and many more.
CINEBENCH is the perfect tool to compare CPU and graphics performance across various systems and platforms (Windows and Mac OS X). And best of all – it’s completely free.
Cinebench puts the Hero joint-last on the performance chart. The difference between all stock-clocked motherboards in this test is a narrow 0.04 points.
lovely board and nice to see a more reasonable price point for the majority of us. While the maximus extreme was impressive, it was also priced at a years car insurance for me!
ROG boards are excellent, well built and nicely designed. I do think ASUS are facing more competition in the high end with Z87 however from MSI and gigabyte and even asrock. any chance of a review of the asrock OC formula high end?
Ben, keep your eye out for that board in the coming days ;-)!
awesome, I like asrock too, good prices. This board is a good setup, interesting to see the 3,000mhz memory didnt work. but its £400 right? cant see too many people buying that.
Good reviews Luke, nicely detailed. DO you think its worth the money to get the ROG extreme over this? I would ideally like to use 3,000mhz next year. I wonder if they can fix the bios, or if its just not as good as the extreme for this kind of support.
Hi Barry, That’s a tough question to answer, and one that depends entirely on personal preference and usage. If you’re going for extreme overclocking with extreme cooling, the Maximus VI Extreme is a great choice and well optimised for those conditions.
If it’s high-speed memory support that you’re specifically after, I would think that compatibility will be improved with future BIOS updates. The Maximus VI Hero does support 3000MHz kits, according to the DRAM QVL, just not quite the one that we tested (not with two sticks, at least).
Thank you for the review.
But I am looking forward to the Formula review more ^^
If I buy this board will I get banned in fps games like cod?
Is Sonic radar is a reason for ban?
