System Benchmarks
Sorenson Squeeze 6
We are using Sorenson Squeeze to convert eight AVCHD videos into HD Flash videos for use on websites. This application heavily favors physical core count and processor clock speed.
WinRAR 3.9 x64
This benchmark compresses our AT workload consisting of a main folder that contains 954MB of files in 15 subfolders. The result is a file approximately 829MB in size.
Bibble 5.0
We utilize Bibble Labs' Bibble 5 v2 to convert 50 RAW image files into full size JPEG images with the program's default settings. This program is fully multi-threaded and multi-core aware.

I use a TV capture card in a PCI slot, and I don't think I'm the only one. True, my PC is an oldie box (Athlon X2 4600+ AM2, 2300MHz I think).feelingshorter - Wednesday, March 10, 2010 - link
One thing about unlocking (some?) AMD CPUs is that the lose their ability to use the auto fan speed feature (cool n quiet). Otherwise, using the stock cooler, your fan wont speed up despite being at 100% load. Not to mention there is only an 80% chance of getting all 4 cores working without corruption (the cores work but its usually the cache that has issues). AMD mobo + cpu is cheaper than Intel's offerings. As soon as you spend 140$ on a mobo AMD lose their value and your entering i7 price territory.Voo - Wednesday, March 10, 2010 - link
cool n quiet has as much to do with fan speed as SpeedStep has, which is to say absolutely nothing.alimaamoser - Thursday, March 18, 2010 - link

I'm with you, so I didn't even bother to read this article on the board's performance. I can say, this is a very nice clean looking motherboard.I think more should strive for this and not start randomly throwing crap in every which way direction.
