Gigabyte P67A-UD7 Review

3D Mark Vantage

As we’ve discovered many times before 3D Mark is infinitesimally more reliant upon the GPU than the CPU and therefore as all of our tests were conducted on a reference GTX570 we see roughly the same results across the board. With only a single GPU in use the benefits of the 16x/16x PCIe lanes on the UD7 don’t become visible.

3D Mark 11

With a very different set of tests 3D Mark 11 still gives approximately the same results. Once again if there is any extra performance to be eked out it’s the UD7 that manages to find it, but it’s not such a difference that 3D Mark can be the foundation of any decision making.
