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 test at 1080p so that all video cards can be compared throughout our reviews. Obviously driver updates might enhance performance slightly over time, but as a rule, its a useful way for us to present the findings.
Exceptional results from the powerhouse HD6990 configuration. Interestingly we still see the ‘QFx frame dip' issue we noted in previous reviews. This causes the minimum frame rate to be recorded as very low, even though it only happens for a split second on a few occasions during the 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.
