omg thats awesome man, great work! Any qualitative statements about each you would like to make. Really impressive!

Thx for testing! Good Job!

RD600 seems to be the slowest.

very must so, i wonder if a bios will fix that or what it is.

Superb test and comparison.

Thank you!!!

:toast:

very nice comparison.. :)

very nice, thank you for this. while ya got the boards, why not test overclocking for each one? :) :)

omg that just insane...how many tests you made! awesome..thansk... It'll take me a whole day to view all the scores and try to find out somethin....but thanks so much for sharing!

Marco

Thanks... Great Work!

I think this confirms what we already know...

975X is the fastest board (clock for clock) for benching. :)

RD600 is the slowest board (clock for clock) for benching. :(

For gaming, at stock, it doesn't matter what board you have... spend your money on a graphics card and overclock it... and if you have a big monitor get an SLI solution and get two graphics cards! :D :D

For overclocking, each board has it's nuances that has been fully explored and revealed elsewhere on this forum. For overclocking, your best board depends on your CPU model, your interest in mods (or your willingness to accept the compromises in avoiding them), your cooling, and your priority on memory bandwidth.

excellent work PcCI2iminal thank you very much!

Man, you are a frigging legend. Now, only just need to figure out whether or not to go 975X or RD600....

So finnal conclusion: RD600 is crap mobo, only for those who want a decent FSB and crossfire (like E6600+x1900xtx) and like 3Dmarking.

Very nice. Thanks :)

Great work, thanks.

omg, the RD600 is 2 minutes behind 975X in SuperPi 32M, now that's a lot of difference there :stick:

Great share, thanks for the hard work PcCI2iminal :D

that's a lot of work

looks like the only thing 680i needs to improve on is SuperPI and it will be a clear winner there...

Wow, great comparison! Thanks for this PCCriminal. Do you have any thoughts on the motherboards themselves? Ease of setup? I'm sure we'd all love to know :)

Well done PcCI2iminal :toast:

It looks like that I am going to cry in 2-3 days when I will change my PW64Pro for the ABIT IN9 32MAX and I will get into a great adventure with overclocking.

But my HP 30" needs SLI badly and I already have the second GTX sitting in each box.

Amazing job!! That must've taken DAYS of work!

great work...p5w64 rules!:clap:

Great work m8:toast:
but i got a problem now...my P5W64 died a few days back while i was benching on a cascade and now i dunno what to get ..another P5W64, RD600, Commando, Striker...:confused:

nice work!

yeh, no surprise there whatsoever, P5W64/i975x rox! and @ 3-3-3-8 its a beast!

I just sold my P5W64 on ebay, worst investment I have made in a piece of hardware. The price has plummeted on these boards since the original $300+ price tag, I barely got over half of that now. Should have stuck with my DS3 until this BX2 came out, it was a better board for half the money. But now I have my Badaxe 2 and I am happy :)
