Asrock z87 extreme 4 with 4770k



A bit faster than z77 on bandwidth, but not as cool as Areca

That 4K write is pretty impressive at QD1, and the write acc time too

That 4K write is pretty impressive at QD1...

Putting it mildly imo...lol

I'm sure it makes for stellar responsiveness.

Less is more

3R0 Samsung 840 Pro 256GB, performs more or less just like 4 drives.

Jesus that 4K QD1 random scaling is just screaming, I know what I need to buy right now!

From a storage point of view it's nice, there are other aspects that aren't

I wanted the Maximus VI due to it's "bios" integrated secure erase, it wasn't available when I ordered, I might be getting one anyways.

It won't be replacing my X79 , this (Haswell) is just for keeping up with current tech...

I agree, I just use a low powered rig for everyday use lately anyway, my 3930K is only for heavy lifting. I have so many rigs running in my small office that when I get testing it gets HOT even with a new AC unit for the house (that has one ton extra cooling capacity). So a 3570 is what I use for browsing and writing, etc.

A friend of mine is saying that with a 4R0 that the CPU is going very high with 4K testing, and that having a number of drives in R0 is creating a lower OC ceiling...he cant hit very high with the clocks with R0. Are you guys experiencing any of the same?
