A very important part of overall system responsiveness is down to hard drive performance. We use two of our favourite benchmark utilities Crystalmark X64 Edition and HD Tach to rate the SSD and HDD.
Incredible performance from the OCZ Vertex 3, dominating this test, even with small uncompressed files. These are the best results we have seen from a single drive SATA unit.
I have been using HDTach for many years now and always find it is an invaluable benchmark to ascertain potential levels of performance. HD Tach is a low level hardware benchmark for random access read/write storage devices such as hard drives, removable drives (ZIP/JAZZ), flash devices, and RAID arrays. HD Tach uses custom device drivers and other low level Windows interfaces to bypass as many layers of software as possible and get close to the physical performance of the device.
HD Tach measures an average speed of over 376MB/s which is impressive and the highest score yet from a single drive with this specific benchmark.
ASUS rock, nuff’ said.
I really do like the new bios configurations, the change from the pants style blue screen was long overdue.
The biggest problem with buying P67 right now is Z68. Is a newer product. no one will be buying until its released. even if its pointless, which I have a feeling it is.
Asus make good boards, its all about the bios stability and power delivery and this product has both.
Good product, but the pricing just keeps creeping up on these boards, everytime I look, its £10 more for xx feature. I remember last year a good board was £120-130.
I always buy asus boards but im waiting to see z68
The auto overclock optioms are good cause i suck at overcockimg. Is 1.48 volts safe enough long term, seems high
I like the power configurations now, mobo manufacturers got wise in recent years
I ordered one of these a while back and got it replaced for the b3 version, had no problems from scan.
Great board, ive my 2500 at 4.7 with a coolermaster cooler
They are expenisve in my country, gigabyte are normally better value
i really love Asus you’ll find almost all you need in there products, Quality & performance thats what they have.
