Gigabyte Z68 G1.Sniper 2 Review

PC Mark Vantage

Whoa. Considering that both the UD3P and Sniper 2 were running identical specs (including the use of IRST), the Sniper 2 annihilates it in PC Mark Vantage. Every score makes a mockery of any other LGA1155 motherboard we’ve seen before and whilst a lot can be attributed to the raw pace the IRST provides, the UD3P didn’t get close. Is this an aberration or will PC Mark 7 back us up?

PC Mark 7

The proof, as the old adage goes, is in the pudding. Once again the Sniper 2 scores a clean kill on its stablemate the UD3P and is the first Z68 board to break the 5000 point barrier. Mightily impressive performance in both iterations of PC Mark.
