Asus P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP @n Socket 775 Motherboard
Drive I/O Performance
Published: 10th December 2007 | Source: Asus | Price: £205 |

HDTach is a free hard disk benchmarking program from Simpli Software. This benchmark is not only capable of producing results on hard disk access times but also CPU usage required during disk access.




Just going on the HD Tach results, we see that the I/O performance on the P5E3 seems faster than on the other two high-end boards.

SiSoft Sandra is a synthetic benchmark utility capable of reporting and benchmarking a wide range of system components. For all of the motherboards we run the Disk Read & Access benchmarks three times to ensure accuracy of results.


The disc read index is higher on the P5E3, mimicking the results from HD Tach. Disc read access times were very slightly higher compared to the other two boards, but not by a huge margin.

looks decent enough, but why, in one of the pictures, was there a sticker over two usb ports, and a network port? :S

Nah just shows you where the USB wake-on goes in, should have taken it off but forgot 



Looks nice, shame the overclocking isnt as good as the rest of it 

Agreed, although cooling limited me tbh. Still 3.7GHz easily on a Q6600 isn't to be sniffed at. Sometimes I wish we could have a bit more time with the boards to tweak away
