SATA, M.2 and USB Performance
To test the storage performance in our motherboard reviews we use AIDA’s Disk Benchmark utility built into their AIDA64 Engineer Edition software package and run a variety of read and write tests. We run each of the benchmark tests on a SATA III, USB 3.0 and M.2 device. For SATA III testing we use a Patriot WildFire 120GB SATA III SSD, for USB 3.0 testing we use the Kingston Hyper X 64 GB USB 3.0 flash drive and for M.2 testing we use Plextor’s 256GB M.2 M6e SSD. The drives are always formatted before use.

Brown PCB that might go nicely with noctua fans and some poop colour case… do we have poop colour case? 🙂
this is not a low-end 4 phase. this is all digital 4 phase.
Good review. Read after I bought this board so I am relieved. All good but I like MSI’s BIOS better.
