Asus P5E3 Premium X48 DDR3 Motherboard
Drive I/O Performance
Published: 8th March 2008 | Source: Asus | Price: £TBA |
HDTach is a free hard disk benchmarking program from SimpliSoftware. This benchmark is not only capable of producing results on hard disk access times but also CPU usage required during disk access. The "Long bench" was run a total of 5 times with the highest and lowest results being omitted and an average calculated from the remaining 3 results.
Result Observations
As expected, the P5E3 performs almost identically to the other Intel P35 and X38 chipset boards that make use of the ICH9R controller.

Wow nice overclocking, i read somewhere that x48 is just a die shrink of x38, is that true?

yeah, thats pretty good as my x38 gets real toasty, i guess thats what aids overclocking the fact it runs cooler, as 680i boards were awful with stock but under water really rocked most of the time..
Nice review btw
i look forward to a proper read later

Apparently the 790i is a lot cooler than the 680/708i (according to the marketing dudes), but I'll be able to say for sure in a week or so
Are OC3D getting one in? theyve been on show on cebit, which i spotted one in a hexus article, it looks like a heatsink about the same size as that on 780i, but hopefully your right and it is a lot cooler.
