ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO AMD 785G Motherboard Review

Testing – Gaming
I ran my favorite three DX10 gaming benchmarks on the X3 720…Crysis, Call of Juarez, and PT Boats: Knights of the Sea.

Though it has been out for just shy of two years now, I still find Crysis the best benchmark for gaming systems. I don’t know of any game that puts so much stress on the CPU and memory, and still is very VGA intensive. It will find those system instabilities not found by Prime95, Sandra Burn-in, and the Futuremark series, especially in memory. It is my favorite software for testing overclocks. I used the Crysis Benchmark Test by Boris Vergiza, settings were: CPU Benchmark, DX10, High, AA x 2, 1280 x 1024.

PT Boats prefers a strong CPU and powerful video card. It has some tough camera angle changes that really affect the FPS scores. I used the standalone performance test, settings were High, AA x 2, 1280 x 1024.

Call of Juarez requires a strong system for any kind of decent frame rate. I used the standalone demo benchmark, settings were: High, AA x 2, 1280 x 1024.
