Asus P8Z77-V LX (Z77) Motherboard Review
AIDA64
AIDA64 Extreme Edition is a streamlined Windows diagnostic and benchmarking software for home users. AIDA64 Extreme Edition provides a wide range of features to assist in overclocking, hardware error diagnosis, stress testing, and sensor monitoring. It has unique capabilities to assess the performance of the processor, system memory, and disk drives. AIDA64 is compatible with all current 32-bit and 64-bit Microsoft Windows operating systems, including Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
Taking a look at memory bandwidth speeds within AIDA64, we can see results falling in-line with the rest of the boards tested. Through overclocking the processor to 4.6GHz, it allowed extra bandwidth to be opened up and speeds increased by up to 5000MB/s.
Thanks for this review – I am due a system upgrade and was looking at this board. Your review convinced me it’s a good choice.
Great review just the sort of info I was looking for Good Work,
Thanks for the review, just two things confuse me, at load, what was the full power consumtion of the system? by 216 you dont mean all watts that went from cable to pc?
What you consider as a wiser choice of proc. if 3770k is not overclocking friendly as much as it should be for the money? thanks for answers
Bought this board because of the great reviews. This one being one of them. Thanks for all the benchmarks it really restores my confidence in my purchase. Mid-grade/budget gaming builds will love this board, as if you’re like me and had to go quality on memory, board, psu, and had to skimp with an i3, and 7870 2gb then you want to have something that is future proof. I’m going to be upgrading my rig in at least a year, and it helps to know I’m ready for a big upgrade without the headache of needing new EVERYTHING. TY eteknix!
have this board with i-5 3550 cpu – 16 gigs ddr3 – corsair ssd and w/d 1.5 tb drive – 550Ti – runs awesome
running mine with i7-3770k/16Gb DDR3 1600/Samsung SSD 120Gb/Evga 550Ti SSC – It’s rocking. I don’t care others saying about low end board. But it runs smooth with my CPU
Great review, it gave me confidence on choosing this board, as a mid-range product. Definitely going to pair with a i5 3570k and try to overclock to 4.5 GHz.
