Unigine provides an interesting way to test hardware. It can be easily adapted to various projects due to its elaborated software design and flexible toolset. A lot of their customers claim that they have never seen such extremely-effective code, which is so easy to understand.
Heaven Benchmark is a DirectX 11 GPU benchmark based on advanced Unigine engine from Unigine Corp. It reveals the enchanting magic of floating islands with a tiny village hidden in the cloudy skies. Interactive mode provides emerging experience of exploring the intricate world of steampunk.
Efficient and well-architected framework makes Unigine highly scalable:
- Multiple API (DirectX 9 / DirectX 10 / DirectX 11 / OpenGL) render
- Cross-platform: MS Windows (XP, Vista, Windows 7) / Linux
- Full support of 32bit and 64bit systems
- Multicore CPU support
- Little / big endian support (ready for game consoles)
- Powerful C++ API
- Comprehensive performance profiling system
- Flexible XML-based data structures
We use the following settings: 1920×1080 resolution. Anti Aliasing: off. Anisotrophy: 4, Tessellation: normal. Shaders: High. Stereo 3D: disabled. API: Direct X 11.
Unigine's Heaven benchmark gives an indication that Asus' motherboard is a solid choice for gaming systems. The overclocked settings deliver the same score, however the minimum frame rate is increased from 24 frames per second to 26.6 frames per second.
good deal but I like the gigabyte UD3, same price, sliglthy better looking IMO
These are great boards for a cheap, powerful system, but I wonder about the reliability due to the power design on the PCB
Great & cheap mobo… Im a lucky owner 🙂
Theres a bad information on page 3 in Motherboard slots and connectors:
1 x 8-pin ATX 12V Power connector(s) – on mobo is only a 4-pin connector…
