DFI Lanparty LT X38-T2R Motherboard
3D Gaming Results
Published: 13th February 2008 | Source: DFI | Price: £TBA |
Quake 4 is a game built on the Doom 3 engine. Benchmarking was performed using Quake4Bench and a custom timedemo recording along with 0xAA, 0xAF settings at a resolution of 1024x768. The benchmark was set to run a total of 5 times, with Quake4Bench automatically calculating an average result at the end of the run.
F.E.A.R. is a game based on the Lithtech Jupiter EX engine. It has volumetric lighting, soft shadows, parallax mapping and particle effects. Included in the game is a benchmark facility that taxes the entire PC system. This benchmark was run a total of 5 times, with the highest and lowest results being excluded and an average being calculated on the remaining 3 results.
Bioshock is a recent FPS shooter by 2K games. Based on the UT3 engine it has a large amount of advanced DirectX techniques including excellent water rendering and superb lighting and smoke techniques. All results were recorded using F.R.A.P.S with a total of 5 identical runs through the same area of the game. The highest and lowest results were then removed, with an average being calculated from the remaining 3 results.
Result Observations
In both Quake4 and Bioshock the X38-T2R and Maximus Formula were left to fight with for the top spot with only 1fps or less between them. Interestingly, the star of the show in F.E.A.R was the P35-T2R with a 2fps lead over the X38-T2R.

Looks nice but a tad late in my opinion with the X48 boards coming out soon and no real gains over the T2R Ive got.
WOW!!!
SUCH A NICE BOARD!!
i was waiting for somebody to review this board, as i had had my eyes on it for the longest time.
Such a nice looking board, and what a performer, gonna be getting this 100% in my next build.

"Haha now it's got my germs on it!!"
why not try overclock dual-core cpu (e6550, e6750 etc) with the board. to make sure it really is q6600's fsb wall and not motherboards. Just a suggestion.

Don't worry tho, you'll probably be seeing a lot more unofficial results form this board when the QX9650 arrives.
