A score of 3,036 points indicates reasonable gaming performance. We hope to get good frame rates at 1080p when we get to the gaming tests later in the review.
Excellent, I love mini itx. dont often get boards that overclock well in this sector however.
Asus rock, but they didnt give me much help with my last board when it failed. went through a whole load of crap with the dealer. will stick with amazon from now on as their support system is second to none.
Good review, they make nice boards. I do think this is overpriced, its £30 more than the gigabyte Z68 you reviewed last week……. doesnt seem to make sense for A75.
Good overclock. Intel can’t overclock. not i3 anyway 😉
Thanks for the terrific review.
Can all three on-board video heads (DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort) be used simultaneously, or does triple-monitor action require adding a graphics card?
