AMD 890GX Test System

Before we look at the numbers, here is a brief glance at the test
system that was used. All testing was done on a fresh install of Windows
7 Ultimate 64-bit. All benchmarks were completed on the desktop with no
other software programs running. The test system was run
in dual-channel memory mode at 1600MHz with 9-9-9-24 1T memory timings. The Gigabyte GA-890GPA-UD3H motherboard was running BIOS F4b, which was the latest build available when testing was completed.

We will also be testing discrete graphics performance on the motherboard and for that we will be using an ATI Radeon HD 5870 graphics card with CATALYST 10.2 drivers.
