PCMark Vantage is a PC benchmark suite designed for Windows Vista offering one-click simplicity for casual users and detailed, professional grade testing for industry, press and enthusiasts.
A PCMark score is a measure of your computer’s performance across a variety of common tasks such as viewing and editing photos, video, music and other media, gaming, communications, productivity and security.
From desktops and laptops to workstations and gaming rigs, by comparing your PCMark Vantage score with other similar systems you can find the hardware and software bottlenecks that stop you getting more from your PC.
An overall score of 19k shows that the 2600k and ASrock motherboard can certainly deliver high levels of performance.
Looks the part, thats for sure. nice specs. They are never a company I consider when im looking at a motherboard however.
great looking product, no doubt about it.
Layout looks good, i wouldnt be so sure about jumping from Asus mind you yet, early days for them in this sector/
I wouldn’t mind one of these for my new system next month, but im waiting on an MSI big bang board whenever that is scheduled. anyone know?
Interesting to see ASROCk trying to break their older reputation for releasing poorly configured but cheap products. they seem to be doing well this year so far.
Excellent all round specifications and build quality. pricing isnt too bad either, although for 60 more you can get into the X58 sector.
I love red and black, wicked. Just hate to see that guys face everywhere, very annoying!
Previously I was only looking at Gigabyte and Asus (in that order) but lately I start to notice MSI and now ASRock… interesting…
There is almost no reason to get this board when the ASRock Extreme 4 is basically the exact same board without the silly fatality mouse port and red colors while being $40 cheaper.
And you don’t have to stare at the guy’s face while in UEFI :p
Oops, meant the extreme6, not extreme4
I just ordered one – hope its clocks my 2600k well
