System Benchmark – PCMark7
“PCMark 7 is a complete PC benchmarking solution for Windows 7 and Windows 8. It includes 7 tests combining more than 25 individual workloads covering storage, computation, image and video manipulation, web browsing and gaming. Specifically designed for the full range of PC hardware from netbooks and tablets to notebooks and desktops, PCMark 7 offers complete Windows PC performance testing for home and business use.” Available here.
We run the stock PCMark7 test that gives you a PCMark score. Like with all other tests we end all other background tasks and programs that could affect the benchmark result.
I’ve really come to like Gigabyte mobo’s over the past couple of years and their UEFI BIOS software suite has improved dramatically to what I remember and although I don’t think it’s quite as polished as Asus’s, it’s not far off. My test bench & personal rig both currently use Gigabyte mobo’s.
“would of” should be “would have” in a few places. Good information though!
thanks. my Achilles heel. Always make that mistake X_X
