PCMark 7
PCMark 7 provides a set of 7 suites for measuring different aspects of PC performance with a high degree of accuracy. Overall system performance is measured by the PCMark Suite. The Lightweight Suite measures the capabilities of entry level systems and mobility platforms unable to run the full PCMark suite. Common use performance is measured by the Entertainment, Creativity and Productivity scenario suites. Component performance is measured by the Computation and Storage hardware suites. The Storage suite is ideal for testing SSDs and external hard drives in addition to the system drive.
Whilst this is an entry level board, I’m staggered to see that at stock it ranks quite highly in the Z77 tables, beating a Maximus V Gene amongst a number of boards from other partners. This results was double checked and for reference, that same version of PCMark7 is used as well as display driver.
