0.72 seconds separate the fastest board to the slowest, so any will suit you well for number crunching. The EPoX board is the fastest of the three here.
TMPGEnc 2.521
Absolutely even here. We were a little surprised the memory performance noted earlier was a non-factor for our video encoding tests.
CDex Audio Conversion Wav to MP3
Same results as in our video encoding tests, with the EPoX board being a second faster than the other two which tied.
Doom 3 Timedemo Demo1
Far Cry Demo
UT2004 AS-Convoy
The ASUS P5WD2 proves to be no slouch in gaming, holding a significant lead over the other two boards. Keep in mind that these are low resolution tests, and as we've seen in our nForce 4 SLI preview a while ago, cranking up the resolution makes the nForce 4 SLI our personal pick if your an Intel gamer.
