Power-draw credentials, plus overclocking
Remember we said that running a 133MHz clock provides extra GPU performance for 'free'. Well, it's not quite free; the in-game power-draw jumps by almost 40 per cent... and that's without touching the voltages.
Overclocking
The basic overclocking test increases CPU and chipset voltage by 10 per cent, drops the memory-multiplier to DDR3-800, and then sets out to achieve the highest stable frequency from the A8-3850 chip. Here's what we got to:
Matching the numbers laid down by the ASUS board, the PURE A75's joint-top in the overclocking tests.
