BIOSTAR A68N-5200 Motherboard Review

Audio Performance


The motherboard’s audio solution is based on the Realtek ALC662 codec and is surprisingly capable. Throughout the testing process, the performance was good and I didn’t detect any major weaknesses. As you can see by the summary below, the noise level, dynamic range and THD % are decent across various bit-rates. In particular, the stereo crosstalk, dB is superb and I wasn’t anticipating such a strong set of results.

In terms of audio latency, the motherboard does quite well and obtained a maximum figure within an acceptable range.

  1. How can you even comment on power consumption when you jammed an R9 290x in there. WTF? The audience has no idea how much power this board actually consumes.

  2. WTH? When ya throw in that Radeon R9 290X into the pix, tis review becomes pointless. Ya gonna bottleneck the dGPU with that weak mobile APU. There are far better choices in the 2nd hand market than tis. And for low power systems, there are far better choices around. Also the tech on the mobo is already obselete, especially with Intel’s Apollo Lake already here with much faster CPU, HEVC support, better iGPU, lower power consumption and fanless as well…..
