Gigabyte GA-X48T-DQ6 Intel X48 chipset mainboard review - SiSoft Sandra XII
Bluetooth 2 Jan 2008

Benchmarks

The GA-X48T-DQ6 and GA-P35T-DQ6 are put to the test using SiSoft Sandra XII.

From the chart, we tested the Arithmetic and multimedia performance of the CPU. The CPU used is a QX9770 which clocks at 3.2GHz (400 x 8).

The board X48T-DQ6 is paired tested twice, paired with a 8600GTS and later a 8800GT.

Sandra XII	Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 with 8600GTS	Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 with 8800GT	Gigabyte P35T-DQ6 with 8600GTS

Memory Bandwidth	7150/7129	7147/7138	7458/7463
Arithmetic - Drystone ALU	59784	59428	59842
Artithmetic - Whetstone iSSE3	47251	46750	47277
Multimedia - Int x8 iSSE3	352332	352414	352534
Multimedia - Float x4 iSSE2	192857	193116	193241

We can see from the chart below that the results aren't that far off. In fact, we noticed something interesting. The P35T-DQ6 with the latest BIOS seems to perform slightly better. Looks like the F3C BIOS on the X48T-DQ6 isn't well optimised yet.
