MSI Z97A Gaming 6 Motherboard Review

Luke Hill June 19, 2015 Featured Tech News, Motherboard

We will outline the performance increases that can be obtained from using the MSI Z97A Gaming 6 motherboard to overclock our system. Our overclocked processor frequency was 4.7GHz and memory speed was 2400MHz.

As a performance comparison, we have included the overclocked results from eight other Z97 motherboards. The maximum overclocked configuration achieved with each board was a 4700MHz (47 x 100MHz) processor frequency and 2400MHz CL10 memory speed.

The Z97A Gaming 6 shows similar performance to other motherboards running at the 4.7GHz clock speed and 2400MHz memory. There are no glaring performance deficiencies shown by the overclocked performance results.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.

    Only 4 regular USB outputs on the back I/O panel is just too low.
