ASUS Sabertooth X58 Review

Testing:

Featuring all-new game tests, this benchmark is for use with Vista based systems. "There are two all-new CPU tests that have been designed around a new 'Physics and Artificial Intelligence-related computation.' CPU test two offers support for physics related hardware." There are four preset levels that correspond to specific resolutions. 'Entry' is 1024 x 768 progressing to 'Extreme' at 1920 x 1200. Of course, each preset can be modified to arrange any number of user designed testing. For our testing, I will use the four presets at all default settings.

 Settings:

• All default settings in each preset level
• Entry 1024 x 768
• Performance 1280 x 1024
• High 1680 x 1050
• Extreme 1920 x 1200

3DMark Vantage scores also climbed from overclocking with performance-tier scores nearly breaking 20K for the Sabertooth!
