KribiBench, XviD, HDTach
Another benchmark-topping performance in KribiBench. We also note that the lead isn't down to a faster driven clock, or clock inflation that some manufacturers are guilty of. MSI's board runs at the same speed as the EPoX and just a touch faster than the ABIT.
Media encoding is suitably fast. We expected a quicker time, somewhere around 10:30 dead.
A WD Raptor 36GB drive runs smoothly on both sets of SATA ports. The only point of concern is the unusually high CPU utilisation rate.
