Foxconn Renaissance X58 Digital Life Motherboard
Hard Drive Benchmarks
Published: 8th February 2009 | Source: Foxconn | Price: £249.99 |
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.
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.
Results Observations
Our HDTach benchmark results show a closer result between the stock and overclocked Foxconn Renaissance. Once again Sisoft Sandra reinforces our findings with the exception of the Random Access benchmark.

I was waiting for the review of this. 
Awesome looking board and the northbridge looks epic.

Not a bad looking board. That heatsink is strangeness personified though. Why produce a board that is unlikely to handle the huge heatsinks most people use? Very odd choice.
Like the colour scheme though. As those who've seen my profile can attest lol.
Quite a steep price for such an average overclock. The Bloodrage is only 30 quid more.

24GB anyone?
Nice review m8.
Couple of questions for you:
The CPU-Z screeny shows 1.216v. Was this max Vcore you used?
What was the Vdrop/droop like?

Thanks all for comments so far

Good job on the review Matthew
I would however have the Bloodrage over this any day..

Horses for courses I think. The bloodrage is targeted to a different audience (hardcore benchers) whereas the renaissance is more a workstation based platform.
