Here is our test system.
Our test system was Windows XP Professional SP2 with 8.1 Catalyst ATI Drivers and nForce 9.46 drivers.
All of this is within range of other 680i based boards and is a good performer.
Here's the RightMark analysis of the sound card.
Quite good for a bundled in sound card.
And here's some RAM and hard drive tests. First RAM.
And then hard drives
Dropping down the CPU multiplier and raising the chipsets voltage we ultimate peaked out our front-side bus at 1.92GHz. An excellent score.
Our final CPU overclock hit 3.66GHz although it was not stable at this speed. We had to drop down to 3.5GHz in order to reach a stable speed and benchmark Crysis but this is an excellent 1.42GHz overclock which is fantastic. As you might know Intel's Core 2 Duos are much better overclockers than AMD's recent processors. This overclock did raise our Crysis CPU bench from 32.5fps to 42fps which in Crysis an extra 10fps is an excellent number.
