Sisoft Sandra XII SP1 benchmark utility just came out a couple months ago and we have started to include it in out benchmarking. With Sandra XII SP1 you can now easily compare the performance of the tested device with its speed and its (published) power (TDP)! Sandra XII SP1 also has SSE4 (Intel) and SSE4A (AMD) benchmark code-paths, which is great for those of you testing next-generation AMD & Intel chips.
When I first started this review I was a little worried about the potential memory performance of this board. However, that all evaporated as soon as I saw the scores. In the past on old hybrid memory boards, memory performance was horrible. On the Foxconn, it was neck and neck with its more expensive Asus counterpart.
