Almost everyone uses Flash based websites, and we wanted to judge how each of the systems would handle high definition 1080p content).
There isn't a problem for either system when rendering High Definition flash media. The Sapphire FX8150 system has a slight edge at reference clocks however.
wow, wicked set up for AMD users. I love that graphics card !
not a very attractive board like the ASROCK fatality series or some of the asus extreme boards, but overall its a heck of a good layout and seems to OC well.
How often do sapphire update their bioses however?
first time ive seen a sata port in at the same areas the CPu power connector. might be a good idea if you can route the case sata port along the reverse side and out through a hole. keep it neat. But is this any better than having another port in the standard sata area?
plenty of PCIe ports, but not a single gen 3?
The bios looks a lot better than their Z68 and X58 platform boards did.
Didnt they poach a lot of engineers from one of the leading mobo companies anyway? seems like a good thing to do if you want to do it right.
the layout is good, and I like the SATA port next to CPU socket and I/O panel. its easy to run the front mounted ESATA cable from a case to this location behind the mobo panel.
