ATTO Disk Benchmark
The ATTO disk benchmark is a Windows-based utility for testing storage performance of any storage drive or controller. We use the default benchmark setup.
USB 3.0 Performance
We test USB 3.0 performance using a Corsair Neutron XT 480GB SSD connected by an ASMedia ASM2105 controller.
The Z390-fed USB 3.0 5Gbps ports operate as well as we would expect them to on our Windows 10 OS.
SATA 6Gbps Performance
For SATA 6Gbps testing we use a Corsair Neutron XT 480GB SSD.
Feeding the SATA 6Gbps ports from Intel's Z390 chipset allows our Corsair Neutron XT SSD to operate without shackles.
Wi-Fi Test
We ran a quick speed test using the included Wi-Fi solution when connected to our Ubiquiti Unifi AP-LR wireless access point. The access point was located in a room that is downstairs and across the hallway from our test position. This represents the challenging task of penetrating two internal walls and an internal floor.
We were able to hit just shy of 180Mbps when running an internet speed test using the Wi-Fi adapter. This is a very positive result when connected in the challenging test conditions and represents close to the highest speed we see from our wireless router.
Audio
Rightmark Audio Analyser is a freeware benchmarking utility designed to objectively test the performance characteristics of audio solutions. We setup a line-in line-out loop and execute the record/playback test before generating the results report you see below. A sampling mode of 24-bit, 192 kHz was tested.
Overall audio performance is Very Good, according to Rightmark Audio Analyser. Several of the categories also exhibit Excellent performance.
