We used 3DMark‘s ‘Fire Strike’ benchmark which is designed to be used on gaming PCs. We opted for the Normal setting, NOT the Extreme mode.
We used the ‘Performance’ test in the 3DMark 11 benchmark.
Our array of system-related benchmarks does not throw up any errors or performance discrepancies for the Z87I Gaming AC. MSI's Mini-ITX board has no problems offering similar performance to contenders which also use the Z87 chipset.
Awesome board, love MSI products – building a media center soon and this was already on my shortlist. unless something comes out soon which is better.
This is my dream in 2014 – build a silent, small system which can play games at 1080p and not break the bank. Still working on it !
Little Giant! Brilliant design, small but fully loaded.
I just hope I could win that kind of awesome motherboard 😀
Great performing board, great looks and very stable.
Using it in a corsair 250D case atm.
Motherboard layout can give some problems with cablemanagement tho when u want everything neat and clean. Thats something that could be improved next time.
Having only 1 chafan conn is simply absurd.
