ASRock E3V5 WS Review

SPECviewperf 12

SPECviewperf 12 is the worldwide standard for measuring graphics performance based on professional applications. The latest version is SPECviewperf 12.0.2, which extends performance measurement from physical to virtualized workstations. SPECgpc members at the time of V12.0.2 release include AMD, Dell, Fujitsu, HP, Intel, Lenovo, Micron and NVIDIA. SPECviewperf 12 measures the 3D graphics performance of systems running under the OpenGL and Direct X application programming interfaces. The benchmark’s workloads, called viewsets, represent graphics content and behavior from actual applications.

Most of the SPECviewperf 12 tests are not processor-sensitive, so the ASRock E3V5 WS's NVIDIA Quadro K2200 performs almost the same as the one in the PC Specialist comparison system.

The one difference is the SolidWorks-based sw-03, where the 4.4GHz frequency of the Intel Core i7 is showing the Xeon E3's 3.9GHz Turbo mode a clean set of heals. But this is nothing to worry about where the motherboard is concerned; it's clearly capable of delivering all the performance the graphics has to offer.
