ECS Durathon2 A320AM4-M3 Ryzen Motherboard Review

Synthetic Benchmarks

3DMark Firestrike

As you no doubt already know, the A320 chipset doesn’t support overclocking of AM4 socket processors. To do that, you would need a B350 or X370 series motherboard. However, despite the lack of overclocking, it’s perfectly competitive at stock clocks. It scored 19992 at stock with the Ryzen 1800X processor.

Unigine Superposition 1080p Extreme

GPU bound tasks are in no way limited either, hitting 5543 in Unigine with our GTX 1080 Ti.

PCMark 10 Express

Even the PCMark 10 score is respectable, beating out the Gigabyte B350 motherboard, albeit only by a single point.

Stock

WPrime 32M and 1024M

Unsurprisingly, the WPrime score is superb, scoring one of our fastest mid-range scores at just 104.380 seconds. Of course, most of that is thanks to the choice of CPU.

Cinebench R15

The same is true in Cinebench, with the Ryzen 1800X doing some serious heavy lifting and scoring a superb 998, not bad for a cheap motherboard either.

Handbrake MP4 to MKV Conversion 4K

A heavy rendering workstation motherboard this i snot, but 41 FPS is right where we would epxect it to be with our CPU of choice and a solid score for a stock 1800X.
