Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0 x64.
Today we focused on the Kingston SSDNow V+200 90GB Solid State Drive, and the results are impressive when paired up with the Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H Motherboard. Sequential read performance is close to 500 MB/s.
ATTO results mirror CrystalDiskMark, with the drive peaking at 560 MB/s read and 505 MB/s write.
great looking board, nice oc too.
I thought you weren’t reviewing MSI or gigbyte, so glad to see one of the two so far 🙂 good price and nice layout of the PCB. I never thought about the power/ reset buttons etc, but it does make sense to move them to the memory slots. not the first time ive seen it, but most of them have those at the bottom next to the USB 3.0 ports.
Havent had a gigabyte board in years, but might be a time to move this year.
