DFI Lanparty LT X38-T2R Motherboard
Compression & Encoding Benchmarks
Published: 13th February 2008 | Source: DFI | Price: £TBA |
ViMark is the latest addition to the OC3D motherboard testing process and a relatively new benchmarking application in general. Designed to take the inaccuracies and guesswork out of measuring the time taken to encode video files, ViMark produces easily comparable and consistent results for encoding raw video into Windows Media, Quicktime, AVI and Gif formats. As always, a total of 5 benchmark runs were performed with the highest and lowest scores removed and an average calculated from the remaining 3 scores.
7-Zip is an open source winzip-style file compression utility that has the ability to compress and decompress many file formats including it's own .7z compression scheme. 7-Zip also comes complete with its own benchmarking utility for gauging the compression and decompression speed of the system that it is installed on.
Result Observations
Once again, a pretty even playing field for all of the boards on test with the ViMark application requiring significant differences in performance in order to sway the results. 7-Zip on the other hand did show a slight preference for the X38-T2R in the compression benchmark.

Yeah quality review Jim as ever.. That board does look swish! And preforms as well to it seems.

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.

benches Extensive review my good man. Won't get a new mobo until nehlam...
I am so getting one of these wen i go to the US! Thats along as the X48 and 790i chipsets dont blow this out of the water.
It looks like it might be a little while before these bouards are available in the UK, but I've been passed information that they should be available at these places:
States: Motherboardpro
Germany: Alternate
