Asus P5E3 Premium WiFi-AP@n Review

 

Testing:

Specview 10 is a benchmark designed to test OpenGL performance. I will be using the multi-threaded tests to measure the performance when run in this mode. The tests used for comparison are listed below. The default multi-threaded tests were chosen to be able to compare across platforms. In these tests, higher scores equate to better performance.

 

• Catia
• MAYA
• PROE

PCMark Vantage is used to measure complete system performance. We will be running a series of tests to gauge performance of each individual board to see which board, if any, rises above the others.

 

Performance was pretty similar across the board. The largest deficit was in the Vantage testing. In the Maya testing, the P5E3 fell a bit short in the dual thread test while in the four thread test it performed better than the older chipsets and fell just short of the competitor's X48 offering.
