ASUS Rampage IV Black Edition Intel X79 Motherboard Review
By
SiSoftware Sandra 2013
The Sisoftware Sandra 2012 SP3 benchmark utility just came out a few weeks ago and we have started to include it in our benchmarking. Sandra 2012 comes with support for Virtualisation (Virtual PC/Server, Hyper-V, VMware) and GPGPU (OpenCL, DirectX 11 DirectCompute), but today we will be using the program to look at memory and CPU performance!
Benchmark Results: The ASUS Rampage IV Black Edition was able to hit an impressive 52.8GB/s aggregate memory bandwidth performance, which is more than 1.5GB/s faster than the MSI Big Bang XPower II and nearly 88% faster than the fastest of the Intel Z87 Chipset motherboards we have.
