DFI X58 T3H6 JR mATX Motherboard
Synthetic Memory Results
Published: 27th April 2009 | Source: DFI | Price: £200 |

SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility capable of benchmarking the performance of individual components inside a PC. Each of the benchmarks below were run a total of five times with the highest and lowest scores being discarded and an average being calculated from the remaining three.

Everest is in many ways similar to Sisoft Sandra. Focusing mainly on software and hardware information reporting, Everest also comes with a benchmark utility suitable for testing the read, write and latency performance of the memory subsystem. Each of these benchmarks were performed a total of 5 times with the highest and lowest scores being discarded and an average calculated from the remaining three.
Results Analysis
Overall, the DFI performed very well but could not keep pace with it's main competitor the Asus Gene. However, considering the DFI costs upto £100 less than some of the other boards on test it is by no mean a poor showing.

Let's see how the motherboards perform in our Hard Drive benchmarks...

Nice job webbo.
I'm happy to see more performance mATX boards springing out and actually making it into production. Now we just need one that's £50 less but still as good

.DFI's X58 Jr. is certainly a quality base to build one mean, micro sized machine. Nice to see that unlike the other Jr. boards, both PCI-E slots are electrically 16x.
Owned a DFI LP Jr. P45 T2RS for a couple of months and was very impressed with it. DFI's mATX range is looking very good indeed

Id question wether or not you need a dfi matx, as most people clock the whohas out of them and the insane bios options are half the reason why they buy them.
Not something you need in a HTPC, but chioce is never a bad thing.
Great review matey

Yeah, those that'll make good use of the rediculously high voltage options and tweaking benefits are likely to be using high end or extreme cooling solutions and that usually means either a very large or no case at all.
However, there are those that still want a top end gaming setup but for whatever reason cannot do with a large chassis sitting around. These motherboards allow users to pack high end components into small but capable cases such as the Sugo SG03 and Lian Li V350 series. A somewhat "niche" market but still a market that's worth targeting

Agree with everything above.
Fantastic board really. mATX is a great form factor, especially for those who only have a small corner to tuck a PC away in but still want the best.
Looks like DFI hit the nail on the head
Great review matey!
