ASUS M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 Motherboard Review
3DMark06 Professional
Contents
3DMark06 measures Shader 3.0 (i.e., DirectX 9.0c) performance. We ran this software under its default configuration. For this test we included the result achieved by a 64-bit Sapphire HD 3450 card installed in the motherboard PCI Express x16 slot
while disabling the motherboard’s on-board video, so we can have an idea of the performance of a very low-end video card compared to the on-board video of the reviewed motherboard. The results you can see below.
The integrated video provided by AMD 890GX was 33% faster than the one provided by AMD 785G. A very low-end Radeon HD 3450, however, is still 44% faster than the on-board video provided by AMD 890GX.
