ScienceMark


Memory bandwidth is good, although slightly behind two ASUS nForce 590 SLI based boards. There's no EPP support in the M2R32-MVP's BIOS, but that doesn't mean the board can't run the RAM at the same timings; you just have to set it yourself. Still, it's better than Sturgeon for bandwidth.


Latency correlates with our bandwidth results, showing the M2R32-MVP as slightly quicker than its Sturgeon counterpart.

HEXUS.pifast

A CPU bound app, HEXUS.pifast serves to show that motherboards aren't holding up our FX-62 in any way.


No problems here.
