3Dmark05, 3DMark06 and 3Dmark Vantage benchmarks of ASRock P45XE-WiFiN Intel P45 chipset mainboard review
Bluetooth 30 Oct 2008

Benchmarks - 3Dmark2005/3DMark2006

Paired with two pieces of AMD Radeon HD 4850 running in Single and CrossFire mode with Cat 8.6+patch. we tested out the board in a single and Dual 8x cross fire configuration.

In the single card configuration, the ASRock P45XE-WiFiN scored 18827, just 50 points behind ASRock P45R2000-WiFi which scored 18895. Looks like the DDR3 on P45R2000-WiFi does play an important part in pushing up the results. It is kind of interesting to observe that the ASRock boards are all doing very well against the ECS and Gigabyte

Let's take a look at CrossFire results. ASRock P45R2000-WiFi scored 21684, ECS P45T-A scored 21083 while Gigabyte GA-EP45 Extreme scored 21433. The ASRock X48TurboTwins-WiFi scored 21530. The ASRock P45XE-WiFi took the crown with a score of 21801.

From the score line, we can see that the difference seems to be substantial. Will this impact other scores in the other tests. Let's see.

In 3Dmark06, single card performance of ASRock P45XE-WiFIN is 13113 which is way higher than the rest. The P45R2000-WiFi is 13098. This score is very similar to the 2 other ASRock boards scoring 13087, 13103. Something odd is that the P45 boards from ECS and Gigabyte scored 13032 and 13027. The difference is around a 100 points.

In CrossFire mode, the ASRock P45XE-WiFiN scored 17997 but the ASRock P45R2000-WiFi scored 18014. Looks like we have a strong performance contender in the making.

In 3DMark vantage, the score for the Performance is 7112, 5 points behind the P45R2000-WiFi and 3 points behind P43R1600Twins-WiFi. This is again faster than the Gigabyte and ECS P45 boards. In CrossFire mode, it scored 11679. It is just 30 points lower than that of the X48TurboTwins-WiFi.
