Asus Sabertooth Z77 Motherboard Review (with OC GTX680)

Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0 x64.

Today we are testing with the Patriot Wildfire 256GB Solid State Drive.

The Asus Sabertooth Z77 Motherboard has certainly no issues in regards to SATA 3 performance. The Patriot Wildfire drive shines via the board, achieving 500 MB/s sequential read. 4K QD32 performance is also very strong.

The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage systems performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customize your performance measurement including queue depth, overlapped I/O and even a comparison mode with the option to run continuously. Use ATTO Disk Benchmark to test any manufacturers RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives and SSD drives and notice that ATTO products will consistently provide the highest level of performance to your storage.

The Wildfire peaks at 557 MB/s read and 517 MB/s write, pretty much as we would hope in an ideal environment. Excellent results.
