ASRock Z97 Extreme6 Motherboard Review (w/ Samsung XP941 M.2 SSD)

ASRock's Z97 Extreme6 makes a positive start in our system-related benchmarks. Chart-topping numbers are displayed in the 3DMark and Sandra processor arithmetic benchmarks.

Memory bandwidth for ASRock's board is lacking in comparison to its competitors. Loose secondary timings are likely to be the cause of reduced memory bandwidth levels.

Despite all this, the head of 3rd parties at PlayStation ‘Christian Svensson’ has claimed that “there are no dire times for the industry ahead as far as I'm concerned.”

    Please review the asrock z97 extreme9. It may eliminate your ONLY con with its PLX chip and greater PCIe capability.
