Gigabyte X58A UD3R V2 Review

Gigabyte X58A UD3R Review

CineBench R11.5

Maxons CineBench again shows how insanely close these two systems are. Even in OpenGL the results are pretty linear with clock speed. CPU Pts do show an increase with the UD3R gaining 10% over the Sabertooth.

 

POV-Ray

The freeware ray-tracing program POV-Ray replicates the CineBench results, with everything being linear to clock-speed except the UD3R v2 has the edge at stock in this particular test.

 

Unigine Heaven

Unigine is very GPU dependant and so we see fairly close scores across the board. Contrary to the CineBench and POV-Ray tests the stock UD3R is lagging behind here, but at both overclocked settings the Gigabyte board just shades the ASUS offering by half a frame or so.
