Hello Alex-Ro,

I`m glad that you asked for the results. I forgot about them . Thanks for the advice, and appreciate that you like the decent pictures.



The testing results are obtained with the 4770K cpu clocked @4500MHz, the memory frequency was set at 2.666MHZ@11-13-13-35 2T.


I used, the following benchmarks:


Aida 64
AogenMark
Cinebench
Multi Core Linpack
Pifast
SuperPi
Wprime
X264 FHD
PCMARK 8 Creative Suite
X264 FHD
SISOFT SANDRA CRYPTOGRAPHY
SISOFT SANDRA PROCESSOR ARITHMETIC
SISOFT SISOFT SANDRA PROCESSOR MULTI-CORE EFFICIENCY
SISOFT SANDRA PROCESSOR MULTI-MEDIA
3D MARK VANTAGE
3D MARK
RESIDENT EVIL 6 BENCHMARK
SNIPER ELITE V2
FINAL FANTASY XIV BENCHMARK
METRO LAST LIGHT




The 2D results:





















The 3D results :
















For the overclocking results, I used an 4670K processor, and 2x8GB double sided memory kit, to see how the mainboard can handle more memory amount, and to stress the IMC more.



Overclocking result :
